Planning Commission
Ordinance
The Jackson county Dlan
ning commission last evening
approved an interim zoning
prdinance for the Camp Baker
rd. area west of Phoenix aft
er several changes were made
in the original proposed ordi
nance. Also considered at the meet
ing was a request by the
county court for an interim
zoning regulation for the pro
tection of land adjacent to the
freeway through the county.
A public hearing will be ar
ranged as soon as possible.
The ordinance approved by
the commisison was instigated
by a petition of residents of
the Camp Baker area for a
single family dwelling and
agricultural zone. The petition
was studied by the commis
sion. During June a public
hearing was held.
T n e commission recom
mended that the ordinance, as
amended, be submitted to the
county court for adoption in
that area as standard rules
and regulations.
The ordinance, as amended,
was passed by the commission
with John Weisbrod, Shady
Cove, opposed. Members of
the commission present were
Ed Bolt, David Lowry, Rob
ert Boyer, Gerald Latham,
Cliff Lovejoy, Ron James,
Weisbrod, and Edwin Geb
hard, chairman. C. W. Duggan
was not present for the ses
sion.
Amendments included the
addition of "fresh fruit and
vegetable packing and stor
age" to the accessory build
ings allowable in the area,
and provision that excava
tion upon the land shall not
be made unless within uses as
provided for within the dist
rict." Prior to the commission s
approval there was discussion
following Weisbrod's report of
the zoning committee, of
which he is chairman.
More Complete Ordinance
Weisbrod stressed the need
for a more complete ordinance
so that the people wouldn't
have to return each week for
changes and have the constant
fear of possible down-grading
of their property
He said the ordinance is too
general and not factual
enough. He said that such an
ordinance couldn't do much
with what is already built.
but it could prevent sub-stand
ard building in the future.
Weisbrod commented that
he felt that if any member of
the commission felt that he
might .be hurt financially or
otherwise by being a member
of the commission he should
never have accepted the ap
pointment. Method in Surveying
Feed Not Accurate
Vale, Ore.-flJPD-The method
used by the bureau of land
management to survey eastern
Oregon range feed is not ac
curate, according to testimony
at a hearing here.
The testimony was given
by members of the Cow
Creek Cattlemen's association,
who are protesting cuts in
range allotments.
One Nevada range expert
said Wednesday that his
studies showed that " the
amount of dry weight needed
to sustain one steer on the
range is 642 pounds a month.
But Fred Harris, Nevada range
examiner, said that the BLM
had set the figure at 800
pounds.
Joe Trackaberry, Boise, said
that the surveying method
used by the BLM did not per
mit adjustments to compen
sate for natural changes.
More witnesses were to ap
pear today and then BLM offi
cials will testify before hear
ing the examiner.
Settlement Sought
In Vancouver Strike
Vancouver. B.C. -lUPD-Pre-
mier W. A. C. Bennett said
Wednesday the coast lumber
industry can afford to increase
wases bv 10 to 12 cents an
hour immediately.
Bennett told a news confer
ence here that he was consid
ering putting pressure on both
the striking International
Woodworkers and the employ
ers to reach a settlement.
The amount cited by Ben
nett was eight cents less than
the woodworkers were de
manding, and five cents more
than the employers offered.
Frost Damage Noted
To Deschutes Potatoes
Redmond -UPD- Agriculture
experts estimated Wednesday
that a Tuesday morning frost
in Deschutes county caused
about $150,000 damage to po
tato crops.
The damage was surveyed
by Jim McAlister, Deschutes
county agent, and Jack Waud
of Oregon Sate college.
for Interim Zoning
He added that the commis
sion is a "good" group, but
he believes it is doing sub
standard work due to "pres
sure" groups.
Boyer, in speaking of the
proposed ordinance and as a
member of the zoning com
mittee, was concerned with
some features of the ordinance
which he felt should be under
building code Ltstead of
zoning ordinance.
He said that the county defi
nitely needs building and elec
trical codes, but they do not
belong in a zoning ordinance.
Lovejoy, chairman of the
building code committee, said
the group had met and had de
cided that the code was too
technical and complicated for
them to elaborate on at this
time without further study.
During discussion of the or
dinance James stressed that
now was the time to thrash
out problems within the ordi
nances, rather than pass them
and then get numerous com
plaints. The proposed interim ordi
nance for lands adjacent to
the freeway was explained as
a temporary measure to pro
tect the valley floor from gra
vel and road fill excavations.
Jack Eaton, planning commis
sion technician, explained that
the area included within this
ordinance would extend from
the Josephine county line to
south of Ashland where the
freeway would join the pres
ent highway.
The land would roughly in-

Grandma Gatewood
Leaves Pendleton
Pendleton -flJPD- Mrs. Emma
Gatewood, Ohio's walking
grandmother, continued her
way westward on foot today
after spending the night at
Pendleton.
Grandma Gatewood was
met by 12 members of the
Pendleton Mainstreet Cow
girls Wednesday, who escort
ed her the last few miles into
this eastern Oregon city. Pen
dleton Mayor Normal Gorfkle
officially greeted the 71-year-old
hiker.
There was a Rotary club

to complete her hike to Port
land, to attend Oregon's Cen
tennial Exposition.

excluding sub marginal lands
and areas within incorporated
cities. The ordinance was pro
posed by the county court,
Eaton explained, due to condi
tion in other Oregon counties
where numerous excavations
for highway fill had proved to
be water traps for breeding
mosquitoes.
He added that the ordinance
would prevent the use of good
agricultural topsoil for use in
road-building. He noted that
at least one such excavation,
of about 20 acres in size, has
already been noted in the
county.
He explained that the pro
posed ordinance, identical to
the interim zoning ordinance
for the Camp Baker rd. area,
would serve until "a county-
wide zoning ordinance as soon
as practical, with further dis
cussion set for the next
meeting.

To Start Soon
Salvage timber operations
on the Rogue River National
forest will get underway soon,
according to a recent report
to the Timber Committee of
the Southern Oregon Conser
vation and Tree Farm asso
ciation by Howard Hopkins.
U. S. forest service official.
It is planned that one for
ester will be assigned to small
sales and salvage sales work
in each of the four districts
in the Rogue River National
forest, Hopkins reported. In
cluded in the salvage sales
will be all dead, down, and
dying timber.
Hopkins noted that recent
appropriations will allow for
esters in 80 districts in the
United States to be assigned
to salvage operations in na
tional forests. This marks a
big step forward in overall
timber management, he ex
plained, and estimated that
the conservation and utiliza
tion program would be ex
panded each year. It will defi
nitely improve forest manage
ment by removal of the sal
vage type timber, he added.
Any sale under one-half mil
lion board feet will be termed
salvage sale, according to
Hopkins. These sales will be
handled in the same manner
as larger sales.
