To Receive ROK
Service Medal
Seoul, Korea flP) Oregon
farmer Harry Holt, who has
placed more than 500 Korean
orphans in American homes,
will become the third man in
the history of the Republic of
Korea to receive the ROK
Public Welfare Service med
al.
Holt, of Creswell, Ore., will
be awarded the medal by the
Ministry of Health and Social
affairs in recognition of his
"humanitarian devotion" to
the welfare of Korean moth
ers.
Surprise Ceremony
The decoration will be
awarded as Holt is preparing
to take a new group of some
85 orphans to their new homes
in America. It will be pre
sented during a surprise cere
mony.
It is being awarded as an
indirect result of a United
Press story on Holt's activi
ties in finding homes for Kor
ean orphans in the U. S.
The story, written by U.P.
staff correspondent Bill Force
said that Holt had given most
of his modest fortune and en
dangered his health to carry
on the program.
Holt suffered a heart at
tack during a trip back to the
United States last year with
a plane load of Korean chil
dren.
The newest group, who
range in age from three weeks
to 14, will leave Seoul Wed
nesday by Chartered Korean
National Airlines plane for
San Francisco. Most of them
will go to homes in Califor
nia and Oregon.
OSC Official Sees
Good Timber Market
Corvallis An optimistic
long-range market outlook for
Douglas fir timber has been
reported by Gary Sander,
Oregon State college forest
products marketing special
ist.
Sander said demand for
timber may increase by 25
to 40 per cent by 1975, ac
cording to a recent estimate
by the U. S. department of
agriculture. The estimate may
prove to be too conservative,
however, if population in
creases are greater than now
anticipated, the department's
forest service noted.
Using the more conserva
tive population estimates,
Sander said demand for tim
ber is expected to outrun sup
ply within a few decades) par
ticularly for preferred' soft
wood species such as Douglas
fir and for high quality timber.
can Forest Products Indus
tries, which sponsors the
American Tree Farm System.
The year-end figures
showed 11,163 certified tree
farmers, including, individual
landowners and forest indus
tries themselves.
Oregon Total
Florida, first state to pass
the 4 million-acre mark in
certified Tree Farms, main
tained leadership with 4,519,
798 acres. Other leaders in
clude Georgia, 3,909,193
acres; Oregon, 3,861,832 acres;
Alabama, 3,832,694 acres;
Washington, 3,775,916 acres;
Texas, 3,630,695 acres and
Arkansas, 3,422,667 acres.
Mississippi continued to
lead in the number of Tree
Fdrms enrolled with 1,177.
Texas dedicated its 1,000th
Tree Farm in November.
Oklahoma became the 45th
state to "activate the Tree
Farm movement. With formal
launching next spring, Dela
ware will become the 46th
Tree Farm state.
"Industry's Tree Farm
movement is a fountain of
prosperity which flows into
every avenue of the nation's
economy," said J. C. McClel
lan, AFPI's chief forester and
assistant managing director.
"Not only does tree farming
provide the wood Americans
need for more than 5,000
every-day Items, but it means
jobs for thousands of workers;
better food and cover for
wildlife; greater opportuni
ties for forest recreation; also
watershed protection and soil
conservation."
Floor Tiles Made
Frqm Wood, Cork
Are Being Studied
Corvallis Floor tiles
made from wood and cork
particles are being studied by
Oregon's Forest Products Re
search center in Corvallis.
C. H. Burrows, wood tech
nologist in the manufactured
products department at the
state-owned research agency,
reported considerable pro
gress in developing service
able floor coverings from mill
residues.
Ponderosa pine hammer
milled planer shavings are
raw material for the wood
particle tiles. Ways of attain
ing good water resistivity and
smooth surface quality are
being checked. The tiles have
an attractive color and a plea
sing particle pattern. Indi
cations from preliminary
tests are that the wood tiles
could be a successful flooring
material.
Floor Tiles
Floor tiles also are being
made from Douglas fir bark
cork. Various binders, cork
fractions, and pressing condi
tions have been tried. Physi
cal properties of the cork tile
compare favorably with cork
floor tile already on the mar
ket. A complete report will
be available soon from the
Forest Products Research cen
ter. Several publications avail
able on request describe pre-,
vious work on particle pro
ducts at the state laboratory,
Burrows said.
. Particle boards offer an ad
vantageous outlet for mill res
idues in Oregon. Eight plants
now are producing, and an
other will be in production
soon.
50-Mile Range
To Test Missiles
Pt. Mugu, Calif. (in The
Navy hopes to have a 500-mile
California to Utah firing
range ready by August for
testing of its Regulus II guid-
ed missiles.
Plans for the range, extend
ing from the area of San Ni
cholas Island off California to
the Army's Dugway proving
grounds in Utah, were an
nounced Wednesday by Rear
Adm. Jack P. Monroe, com
mander of the naval air mis
sile test center here.
The swept-winged, . super
sonic Regulus 11 missile
would be launched from Ed
wards Air Force Base In the
California desert and from
ships in the Pt. Mugu test
range.
Monroe said the missiles
would not carry warheads
and would be controlled in
flight by chase aircraft cap
able of overcoming the guid
ance system of the missiles
and taking direct control.
The control aircraft can
blow up the missile in case of
emergency through a built-in
destruction system. .
The admiral said an inland
range was necessary because
land points were required to
check the accuracy of the mis
sile L. its flight and fall.
Regulus II, a long-range
version of Regulus I, has been
operational in the fleet for
more than a Vear.

Acquittal Ordered
In Lumber Fraud
Portland (IP) Federal
District Judge Gus J. Solo
mon Wednesday ordered a
judgment of acquittal for
Robert F. Middleton, Red
ding, Calif., and William S.
Ingram, Oakland, Calif., two
lumber brokers named as de
fendants in the Bailey Lum
ber Company fraud case.
Judge Solomon said the
two should be released as de
fendants on the basis of in
sufficient evidence to convict
on mail fraud charges. The
trial started here Tuesday for
Richard G. Bailey, Mrs.
Laurel Macy, a bookkeeper
for the now defunct Bailey
firm, Norman Eggiman, an
accountant, and the two
brokers who were dismissed
as defendants Wednesday.
The firm is accused of using
false invoices and bills of
lading to bilk banks out of
some $260,000.
cerning law enforcement
against writers of spurious
checks.
He brought out that law
enforcement authorities
would not have the record
they have today if it had not
been for cooperation of mer
chants. At the same time ha
said there are businessmen"8t
fault because of unwillingness
to sign complaints or testify.
The FBI man added that there
are too many who want to
use law enforcement as a col
lection agency. ;
Handled by Check
Mentioning that the great
est percentage of financial
transactions today are hand
led by check, Williams said
that "no good" checks pre
sent a problem not only be
cause of the investigation re
quired but because persons
who have passed them are af
fected just like narcotics addicts.
The FBI agent spoke of the
amateurs who operate locally
and of the advanced or
professional operators who
travel from state to state and
make their living by passing
checks. Williams pointed out
that many "professionals"
have had experiences in
trades and use these in their
operations. He remarked that
country clubs, where fraudu
lent check passers may obtain
cards in locker rooms, serve
to afford credentials for false
identity.
The speaker told of the
fraudulent check file and la
boratory of the FBI In Wash
ington, D.C., and means of
tracing writers of bad checks
by handwriting, type of paper
and type of violation. He said
also that markings made by
individual check writing de
vices differ like fingerprints.
Williams stated that some
spurious check passers haye
such salesmanship ability
that they would make good
livings if they chose to fol
low legitimate occupations. '
Law enforcement against
crime costs more than $2 bil
lion per year Williams report
ed to Kiwanians. That am
ounts to $1.29 per person. He
said that for every dollar
which goes to a church, 12 go
to combat crime. One out of
16 hemes are affected by
crime annually Williams said,
adding that 60 per cent of the
persons arrested and finger
printed last year had previous
crime records. Z
Williams said the Medford
police department is recog
nized as one of the best in the
state and added that law en
forcement officers in other
communities look to Medford
