Tttfc COLUMB Storm Damage Is Estimated by State Highway Dept. The Columbus day storm cost the Oregon state high way department nearly a half million dollars, State High way Engineer Forrest Cooper has revealed. This figure does not include all the damage done at state parks. The total to date is calcu lated at $470,000, Cooper said. Downed trees have de layed a complete inventory of park damage, and the cost of repairing water and sew age systems may not be knoA'n for some time. Greatest portion of the storm cost was blowdown of trees across the highways, which totals some $265,000 in clean-up expenses. Dam aged signs and signals ac counted for another $123,000. Highway damage approached $33,000 and another S26.000 damage occurred to park roads. Hardest hit parks in the Oct. 12 storm were Silver Falls, Jessie M. Honeyman, and Umpqua Lighthouse, Coo per said. A partial inventory at Silver Falls indicated some two million board feel of Urn ber with a salvage value of $40,000 fell in the picnic and overnight camp areas alone, the areas which will receive first attention of clean-up crews. Incomplete reports from Honeyman estimate the loss there may reach three to four million board feet, Cooper said, and the Umpqua Light house blowdown may be an other two million.
