Neuberger Assured
Of Efforts To Hike
Sale of Stumpage
Portland Forest Service
officials have assured Sen.
Richard L. Neuberger that ef
forts will be undertaken to
increase timber stumpage for
sale in the vicinity of the
Klamath Indian Reservation,
so that mills in southeastern
Oregon will not feel so stren
uously the loss from the mar
ket of the huge Indian pine
forest while it is transferred
during the next several years.
Neuberger, sponsor of the
bill which will shift the Indi
an stumpage either to the
Forest Service or to private
bidders practicing sustained
yield, said he was concerned
over an adequate supply of
timber in the Klamath area
in the interval when the shift

in ownership take place.
Can Step Up Sales
Walter H. ( Lund, assistant
regional forester in charge of
timber management, has re
ported that sales can be step
ped up on a number of major
National Forests bordering
on the Klamath Reservation.
These are the Rogue River,
Deschutes , Fremont and
Umiqua National Forests.
Lund also has told Neu
berger that a conference of
National Forest supervisors
soon will be neld to discuss
plants for increasing the al
lowable cut in this section of
the state. At Neuberger's re
quest, Bureau of Land Man
agement timber-sale officials
also will participate in the!
meeting.
"Both the Forest Service
and Bureau of Land Manage
ment have been most cooper
ative in this emergency,"
Neuberger declared. "Their
officials have shown real un
derstanding of the need to
help tide over Klamath Basin
mills and plants while the In
dian forest changes hands, so
that employment and produc
tion can be maintained at
normal levels."
To Offer More Timber
Lund has told Senator Neu
berger that "we are aware
that some of the Forests in
Southern Oregon have not
harvested their full allowable
cuts during the present five-
year budget period and for
this reason we will, be able to
offer somewhat more timber
than normal. We hope by
this process to devise sale
plans for the four forests that
fully meet the needs of the
area.

Timber Proviso in
Small Business Act
Under Consideration
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Washinlon

Washington The Small
Business Administration is
now busy writing regulations
d e s i gned to
implement
the so - called
small busi-

which Con

this controversial proviso will
become operative is not yet
certain, for public hearings
may be held in the Northwest
on the proposed regulations
before they take effect. The
regulations are expected to be
ready by Dec. 1.
The expressed objective of
the proviso is to assure small
timber operators a fair pro
portion of federal timber of
fered for sale by the Federal
Service and the Bureau of
Land Management.
The general intent of the
proviso, sponsored by a group
of Northwest Democratic sen
ators, chiefly Sen. Wayne
Morse (D-Ore.), is to guaran
tee that small operators are
not denied federal timber
simply because they might be
outbid in competitive sales by
larger companies. It would ap
parently require the timber
selling agency to put up a sale
especially for small qperators

Loan Classification
Under the SBA loan pro
gram, a manufacturing com
pany is eligible for loans if
it employs no more than 500
person. Firms in the retail
business age considered small
business if they do less than
a million dollar a year in busi
ness, and wholesalers can do
up to $2 million to remain
eligible.
But when Congress modi
fied the act last summer it
aaaea language which says
that whenever number of em
ployes is used as a criterion,
the number fixed as a limit
for a small business must vary
from industry to take into
account their differing char
acteristics. Purpose of this
was to emphasize the intent
of Congress that concern
should "not be denied assist
ance by SBA merely because
it employed more than 500
persons.
An SBA official said the
agency has received a number
of communiques from lumber
industry persons, who are di
vided over the small business
timber proviso. The proviso
came up so quickly in Con
gress last summer that there
was little or no opportunity
then for industry comment.
Opposition Registered
Western Forest Industries
Association, Portland, regist
ered its opposition, despite its
representation of so - called
small timber operators in the
Northwest. It also represents
some large operators.
SBA officials have confer
red with both the Forest Serv
ice and BLM about imple
mentation of the proviso.
Some informed sources here
belive the proviso will act
chefly as a prod to both these
forestry agencies that will as
sure small operators of avail
able timber. The theory here
is that the agencies will not
want SBA butting in and tell
ing them how to sell timber
so they will go out of their
way to mitigate distress
among small operators who
feel they are being crowded
out of timber sales by larger
firms,
