freeman Hints at Minor Increase in National Forest Timber Sales - Portland-TOPD - Agriculture Secretary Orville L. Freeman told West Coast lumbermen today he believes he will soon order an increase in the amount of timber that can be offered for sale from the gov ernment's national forests. Freeman added, however, that any increase probably would be minor. And in a bluntly worded speech pre pared for deliver to the WesU ern Fine Association here, he urged lumbermen to: -Tone down their attacks on the U. S. Forest Service. -Adopt as a "fact of life" the government's basic policy of managing forests for a wide range of products Including outdoor recreation, range, tim ber, water shed protection, wildlife improvement, and fish. -Back the administration's rural area development pro gram and Its farm legislation designed to encourage plant ing of farm woodloti and de velopment of recreation facili ties in rural areas. Lumbermen have complain ed sharply about government timber sales policies and have urged changes designed to make more timber available for purchase. Changes were also requested in federal poli cies for appraising timber be fore sales. These regulations have a substantial Impact on an industry that draws much of its raw material from fed eral forest lands. Freeman said he is con scious of the fact that lumber production has been low in recent years, that there is sharp competition for logs in many places in the West. He said the Agriculture Depart ment has given "first prior ity" to boosting its timber sales and a record volume was offered for sale in the three months ending June 30. The department, meanwhile is reviewing recommendations from a group of foresters in a restudy of over-all- "allow able cut" levels, Freeman said. "I believe that my report to President Kennedy in Oc tober will show a further in crease in the allowable cut," he added. Freeman said, however, that a proposal by lumbermen to make a basic change in meth ods of appraising national for est timber would "fail to de velop a reasonable estimate of fair market value a re sponsibility I have to the American public." The agriculture secretary announced the creation of two new advisory groups in an ef fort to ease frictions between the industry and his depart ment. Freeman said he has told the forest service to set up an advisory committee of impar tial experts to help in a con tinuing review of timber sales papers, radio and television," prices. He added he also plans to set up a forest resource advisory committee to advise him personally on the opera tion of the national forests. The agriculture secretary said that the lumber industry obviously hasn't been satis fied with government steps so far. "I can understand that you feel you must talk in extremes to get the attention of news- Protection Promised for Southern Negroes Seeking To Register To Vote : Washington -UIPD- President Kennedy has promised federal protection, backed up by "ex tra legislation and extra force" if necessary, for Ne groes attempting to register to vote in the South, v.

Kennedy Signs $900 Million Bill For Public Works - Washington-flJPD - President Kennedy today signed a $900 million pump priming public works bill to accelerate the economy and provide work for the unemployed. At a ceremony in his office, attended by numerous sena tors and congressmen who had worked on the bill, Kennedy said he soon would transmit to Congress a request for ap propriations to finance proj ects authorized In the bill. Jobs created by the bill, he said will be of maximum benefit to the unemployed. The President also saidTe hoped the next Congress would give consideration to his request for $2 billion standby authorization to be used for new projects it em ployment drops drastically. Congress turned down the re quest In the legislation signed today. The bill was designed as an immediate attack on the na tion's nagging unemployment problem. It authorizes federal match ing grants to communities for work on a variety of projects, including construction on roads, streets,, sewage treat ment plants, public buildings, and other civil projects. The grants for the post part would be matching federal and state funds.
