Most logging is now done with horses, Gomez said. He also noted that It is hard to get good horses for logging. Foresters there prefer big stallions and some of ' the teamsters have devised in genious methods for control ling them. "There are great opportun ities in Colombia for logging engineers and foresters," he said. The graduate of the Uni versity of Bogata noted that Colombia is keeping a care ful balance between the con servatives and liberals in gov ernment. This has resulted in greater development of the county, he explained. Colombia has more than 737 secondary schools, 300 com mercial schools and 28 uni versities and colleges, he said. Know About Country People in Colombia know more about their country than the people of the United States know about thelr's, the South American remarked. Although Spanish seems to be one of the universal langua ges few U. S. diplomats sent to South America are able to speak It intelligently. How ever, Colombia youngsters know English when In the fourth grade. After the "South American" completed his talk and sat down he was reintroduced as Lee Hunt, of the bureau of land management, Roscburg. His Spanish accent and flu ent use of the Spanish lan guage had everyone fooled. In other business, Bill At ring, Timber Products, Med ford, was elected to the SOCTFA board of directors for three years and Ed Smith, Southern Oregon Plywood, Grants Pass, also was elected to a three-year position on the board. Jack Sims, Bate Lum ber company, Grants Pass, was elected for a , two-year term. CommittM Report Dick Swan, timber commit tee chairman, noted that com mittee sessions have been at tended regularly by 20 to 30 people. Discussions have cov ered timber sales, scaling practices, recreational uses of national forest and timber lands and Christmas tree theft prevention. Al Smith, chairman of the public relations committee, said the biggest aim of the committee Is to tell the peo ple of Jackson county what the lumber Industry Is doing and why. He praised Ruas Hoag and Dale Prentice, as sociation secretary manager, ; for the work they had done, j Steve Wilson, chairman of t ho trucking committee, said ' the slate highway commission is removing some of the ' curves on the Crater Lake i highway. The public utilities commission has agreed to al- i low more length In logging trucks, and the committee ! now is fighting to keep the flnt rate system Instead of the former charge by mileage. Tramportation Report Russ Hoag, chairman of the transportation committee, snid the industry has been able to get more equalization of rates for Pncific Northwest lumber shipped Into the south and southwest. The committee has been able to shut off the ex tra assessment charged mill owners for committee promo tion and now has $5,000 in re serve funds. Recently Southern railt ni have favored a 7-cent reriuc-1 lion In freight rates from the west coast, Hoag said. This has resulted in lower rates . for lumber shipped east of the Rocky mountains and soith ' 1 Into Texas. It has meant saving of $23 million a year. However, the Southern Pine Products association may ask for a rate suspension so this reduction may be halted by the Interstate Commerce commission. The recently formed wood waste disposal and utilization committee is studying, analyz ing and will promote im proved methods of waste dis posal or utilization to provide greater employment In the lo cal lumber Industry. Clearing Houi The committee will be a clearing house for exchange of ideas for wood product utilization and will support experiments found feasible on use of presently unusable by products, Prentice reported for the chairman, Paul Doe.
