in various parts of the state
when forest fire emergencies
arise. The prison crew has
been an important part of the
well organized fire protection
organization covering nation
al, state and bureau of land
management timber acreage.
Newspapers, radio and tele
vision have all been highly
cooperative in public educa
t i o n programs emphasizing
the importance of caution in
the forests, especially during
the summer seasons, Nesheim
said. As a new approach to a
vitally essential program, a
hohse - to - house canvass has
been found effective in rural
areas, conducted by regular
staff members.
The state forestry depart
ment here works in close co
operation with the U.S. forest
service and with the bureau of
land management. Under con
tract with the BLM, the de
partment contracts to give fire
protection to BLM forests as
well as state timber.
With the new area of timber
in the Gallce district soon to
come under Neshelm's depart
ment supervision, the fire pro
tection area will exceed 1,
750,000 acres. 1
There were approximately
275 fires in southern Oregon
forests last year in the area
directed from the state . for
estry department office here,
and acres of timber destroyed
were less than in many years,
due to effective cooperation
between state and federal
agencies and the timber in
dustry. Along with efforts to reduce
man-caused forest fires, study
has been given to techniques
in lowering losses from lightning-caused
fires.
Manpower, equipment and
funds are contributed by the
timber industry when fire
emergencies arise, the speaker
said.

Russians Declared
Spending Huge Sum
On Fallout Shelters
Washington - (UPt - A secret
study shows that Russia is
spending from f 500 million to
$1.5 billion yearly on fallout
shelters. It is believed "the
great majority" of Russians
would be protected from radi
ation in a nuclear war.
Frank B. Ellis, director of
the Office of Civil and De
fense Mobilization, told a
House appropriations subcom
mittee about the - study in
testimony published today. He
asked for $2 million to pro
vide fallout shelters In 29 ex
isting government buildings
and (6.2 million to Include
shelters in planned new buildings.
Ellis described the shelter
program as a pilot project and
said he hoped It would set an
example for Americans gen
erally. Already some builders
are offering shelters with
homes, he said.
Fallout Most Dangerous
The civil defense director
said most deaths in a nuclear
attack would result not from
blast and heat but from re
sulting radioactive fallout, de
pending on wind and weather
conditions. He said most peo
ple would have time to take
shelter if it were available.
Ellis' proposal ran into hos
tile questioning by subcom
mittee members who rejected
as did Congress - a similar
request a year ago. Members
indicated they had doubts that
Ellis had any new Information
to back up the renewed request.
In reply he mentioned the
classified report on Russian
spending for shelter. He said
it was made by a man who
speaks Russian fluently and
who spent six months In Rus
sia. He declined to name the
man. He offered to present
the study later in secret ses
sion.
Shortage of Figures
"We realize the shortage of
figures," he said, "but they
specifically indicated that the
great majority of the Soviet
population would be protect
ed from fallout." .
In urging approval of a
pilot shelter program In this
country Ellis said, "I believe,
gentlemen, that we are deal
ing with human survival.'
Shelters to be provided in
federal buildings would be
planned for two-week occu
pancy, with Independent wa
ter, sewage, and electrical
systems. .

It Is proposed to install shel
ters are in Birmingham, Ala
