(UPI 'ielephoto) Surface Rights To Be Determined in Forest Determination of surface resource rights on unpatented mining claims in the Mc Loughlin and Applcgate C areas of the RogUe River Na tional forest has started, the bureau of land management has notified C. E. Brown, forest ' supervisor. , The' areas are in Jackson, Klamath and Josephine coun ties. Notices will be publish ed for nine consecutive weeks, Brown said. Maps of the two areas are now being published, and Piofii Sharing Plans Show Large Increase Chicago -IUPD-The Council on Profit-Sharing Industries (CPSI) reports that in the first six months of 1960, the num ber of firms offering the profit-sharing fringe benefit jumped 61 per cent over the year before. CPSI said that 2,503 new deferred profit-sharing plans were instituted . in the half year, covering 115,544 em ployees. The Council said that more than SB50 million was shared in 1959 by more than 2 million employees. copies of the multiple-use min ing law of July 23, 1955, and of the procedure for the de termination of surface rights are available for inspection at the forest supervisor's of fice in the Medford postoffice building. A claimant has two options under the law, Brown noted. He may ignore the notices, thereby waiving rights to the surface until the claim goes to patent yet maintaining his original mining rights. The claimant may file a verified statement asserting his rights to the surface, Brown said. In that case, he added, the claim will be examined by mineral examiners. Claims of questionable validity will be considered before a hearing officer of the bureau of land management, which will make the final decision. Both the claimant and the forest service will present their testimony at the hearing. Brown said that whatever the decision, the claimant will retain his mineral rights. If the decision is in the claim ant's favor, he also retains all surface rights. . v j.

IMmt One of Every 260 Workmen In Woods Will Be Killed in Corvallis-One out of every 2V4 workmen in the woods will be injured this year and one out of every 280 will be killed, unless something is done about it. With an eye on doing some thing about it, Oregon's first Logging Safety Institute was sponsored this month by the Oregon State college school of forestry and the Pacific North west Loggers association. Speakers painted a grim picture of the need for im proved safety programs. They noted that 59 loggers were killed in Oregon last year, compared to 77 fatal accidents In all other Industries com bined. Logging and sawmill ing, which employs 7.2 per cent . of the Oregon work force, has 47 per cent of all fatal accidents. At the same time, Institute leaders pointed the way to reducing deaths and crippling and costly injuries. Major points in "accident preven tion," they emphasized, in clude a Bafety . program and "safety attitude" for every op eration-llttle and big; safely inspections: proper selection placement, and training of em ployees; accident investiga tions and reporting; and meas urement of safety . perform ance., A moral obligation exists to prevent injuries to the workmen and a legal obliga tion as well because stale law requires an employer to pro vide a sate place of employ ment, R. P. Miller of Inter national , Paper c o m p n n y, Longvlew, Wash., emphasized. The staggering osts in volved in the sor'y safety record were outl' 1 1 by K, G. Green of Hie Oregon stale in dustrial accident commission and M. H. Fell of Edward Hincs Lumber company, Hincs. Green reported thai the av erage cost per claim in log ging is nearly $050. Indirect costs of accidents run from four to six limes that amount in addition, it was explained. These include damage to squipmenl and product, loss of production lime, lime of supervisors and olhers in tak ing care of Ihe injured. Average Cost The average cost of acci dents as estimated by the Western Pine association is $2.88 per thousand, Fell said, and it may be substantially more lhan thut in fir. . No logging operator-big or small-can afford to be with out a safety program, How ard W. Peterson, logging man ager for Crown Zellerbach Bunker KiSi Co.; Reports Net Loss San Francisco - IUPII - The Bunker Hill company, whose production wns Interrupted by strike in lHflO, has reported a net loss of $4,222,707 for Ihe year. The 1980 loss compared with a profit of $209,172 in 1959. Heaviest losses, totalling $3,170,909, were suffered In the final quarter when the Kellogg plant In Idaho pro duced only 1,104 tons of zinc because of a strike. Total Income for the year was $31,358,627, compared with $46,498,775 the previous year. The company said all its plants have been operating at capacity so far in 1961. Missionary to Talk At Lenten Program Jacksonville - Warren My ers, a veteran of seven years of missionary work in Ihe Orient, will speak at Ihe third meeting of the Lenten Mis sion study program at 7;o o'clock tonight nt the Jack' onville Presbyterian church Prior to the main address by Myers, discussions of the topic of the evening, "The World-Wide Appeal of Clirls tlanity ," will be held. . Myers originally went to the Far East in 1952 at the request of the laic Dawson Trotman, founder of the Navi gator's. In the ensuing years, Myers has worked in Hong Kong, India, and Vietnam.

Oil Industry Leads Capital Investments ' Chicago-OIPB-The oil indus try leads the nation in capital investment, according to Oil Marketer, an Industry publi cation.

A broadcast report on a speech Khrushchev made at a farm meeting in Moscow last week quoted him as saying; "T h c American imperial ists, having created Ihe atom ic bomb, began talking about the creation of a hydrogen bomb. Our scientists, as the saying goes, "wound it round their whiskers , . . and creat ed the hydrogen bomb before it was invented in the U.S.A." Corporation, Portland, insist ed. What can the small logger do about safety? He can be his own safety supervisor, Peterson stressed. He can talk and act safety on the job; be sure that his equipment is in safe operating condition and that it is properly set up; be sure that his men have safety equipment and that they can use it; and can insist on safe working practices. We cannot subscribe to the philosophy that every so often someone must be killed or that for so many thousand board feet of timber logged Someone gets hurt," according to K. L. Gipson, safety di rector for the Georgia-Pacific, Portland. Carefully Considered Two things must be care fully considered and checked each time there's an. accident -the cause and the cure, he stated. , Log truck accidents are gen erally caused by human error, not mechanical failure, Dan B. Cudahy o( Jones Logging company, Nclscott, reported. These causes can only be cured by constant recognition of the hazards, by daily safe ty inspections, attention to equipment, and constant cau tion. . Top management must lake an active part in the develop ment and operation of the safely program. It. R. Elliot of Weyerhaeuser company, Klamath Falls, stressed. "Ac cidents are caused and can be prevented; safety is a mark of skill and of good sense," he summarized. Robert L. Wilson, forest en gineering professor, was in charge of the conference which will now be an annual event at Oregon State college.
