Foresters View Oregon Coastal Dunes at Meeting I Foresters from all sections of Oregon and southern Wash ington gathered Saturday at Gardiner, Ore., to view the unique Oregon coastal dunes area. Much controversy has raged during past years over the establishment of a Nation al Searshores Recreation area Tne ,rlP was 'he main subject f ,he Sociy f American tion annual field trip. During the day-long trip over the dunes area both north and south of the mouth of the Umpqua river foresters saw many of the scenic attractions which make this area one of the most outstanding coastal recreation areas in the nation. Shifting and imposing dunes framed against the blue sea on one side and the green of Ore gon's forests on the other pro vided a startling and different change from the normal habi tat of the foresters work-a- day world of forest, lake and stream. Muliiple-Usei As a highlight of the trip the group was shown the com bination of multiple-uses shap ed out of the dunes which directly involve the forester. On the edge of Coos Bay a pulp mill, using fibres of the little used before red alder tree and also clear water pumped from the dunes, pro vided an example of the pos sibilities of other uses com patible with a highly used scenic recreation area. Water in great abundance was found under the coastal dunes north of Coos Bay. Ad jacent to this area are vast stands of red alder, growing to maturity now after fires a century ago. Very little use of alder had been made until water was discovered in the dunes, a natural underground reservoir, thus making pos sible the building of a pulp mm to use botn these re sources. All of this has been accomplished through full co operation of federal, state, and local governments as well as a number of private firms.

This dispatch tells what the board does, who its mem bers are, and why there is a controversy.) By DOUG GRIPP Salem -IUPP-Even the name is kind of scary. Emergency board. If this sounds like cri sis, then you are right. Crises are what the State Emergen cy board was created for to deal with emergencies, name ly money. Like all government agen cies, the board is made up of flesh and blood, and lots of paper. But this board is unique. It is really a "little legisla ture." The nine lawmakers who sit on it have full power to allocate or deny money between legislative ses sions when any agency of state government thinks it is in a financial bind. This means everyone, from the governor's ottice on down. Clearly Defined Extent of the board's au thority on all emergency mat ters is clearly defined in the Oregon constitution. But the STAGE-July 30-Aug. 11 (except Sunday; the am hufdmq as the theatre. City Slate. and check for ticket! mada out to , - .5 Or-m) Y'rm to-" W y 74 - j ' r- ' 7v t ". V week. The armored car was cn route to a bank when hit broadside by the truck. The two Brink's riders were injured, one seri ously. (UPI) Nuns from festering sore that erupted this week between the gover nor, secretary of state, state treasurer and the board is just how far the board can go after that. The charge is that the board is becoming more of a mon ster each year the legisla ture gobbling up preogatives of the executive branch to run its end of the government. The rebellion was announc ed Tuesday by Gov. Mark Hatfield, Secretary of Slate Howell Appling Jr. and State Treasurer Howard C. Bellon. They make up the State Board of Control, which over sees all state institutions, ind they aren't going to the Emer gency board anymore, except for what they consider pure emergencies. Gel Okay Almost every major state agency has occasion to go be fore the Emergency board. If they aren't after a direct allo cation, they have to get an okay to shift funds from one category or another, to spend funds already allocated, to get building plans approved, or to get permission to apply for or receive federal funds. The board has a reputation for being tough. Anyone who appears before it can count on steely eyes and sharp inter rogation. It is bureaucratic suicide it the request Isn't backed up with a mass of supporting data. Since no state administra tor can predict how the board will view his request, there is a varying degree of worry and sometimes fear before an appearance. Also, some of the board members weren't chosen for their even temper aments. They get tough over fiscal flab, and they hate what they consider nonessentials. Bad Reputation I Al least one agency chief: who has a bad reputation for saying the wrong thing and, whose enemies in the legisla ture are legion says prl-1 vately he would almost rather go to the guillotine than be fore the Emergency hoard. But there's no where else to go for money. Who arc these purse siring holders? The chairman is Senate President Harry Boivin ID Klamath Falls). The vlce chair- man is State Rep. Clarence Barton (D-Coquille). The others are State Sens. Daniel Thiel (D-Astoria), E. D. Potts (D-Grants Pass), Francis Zicglcr (R - Corvallis), and State Reps. Robert B. Duncan ; (D-Medfnrd), F. F. Montgom ery (R Eugene), Leon Da ii . M ( V. m a i n w . t ok m 1 1 ii ii in week. The nuns started their day by taking a cruise on Lake Winnebago, and having a picnic. It ended at the amusement park. (UPI) (R-Hillsboro), and Ben Evick (D-Madras). Another good reason for ca tering to this group is that some of the members are om nipotent in the regular legis lature. Runs Senate Boivin, of course, runs the Senate. Barton was co-chair man last year of the Ways and Means committee. Thiel was the other co-chairman. Duncan is current House speaker, and both Barton and Montgomery are candidates for speaker in 1963. Also, Montgomery is House minori ty leader. The board meets al the call of its chairman, never more than once a month, when enough emergencies build up to warrant a meeting. The challenge of its author ity tickles many state agen cies.
