Ashland r A new concept of Oregon's growth ia needed as increased population brings new opportunities as well as new problems to the state, Glenn L. Jackson, vice chairman of tne board of Pa cific Power and Light, Med ford industrialist and chair man of the state highway commission, told the crowd attending the awards banquet I here last week. "No longer should Oregon's economy be geared to the price of two by fours," he said. Basing his address upon the findings of the recently re leased Soher survey, Jackson reviewed the state's growth in the fields of agriculture, tourism, mining, electronics, clothing and chemical indus tries and even the newest source of income retirement living. Quotes Statistics Quoting 1082 statistics he showed that of the 520,000 gainfully employed Oregon ians only 18 per cent were in the lumber industry. He be lieves this to be a transition period, but is optimistic that diversification of lumber products will be an important development. In agriculture the prospects are tremendous Jackson feels, since this stale is fast becom ing the Pacific coast bread basket as California's explod ing population takes farm lands out of production Oregon's third largest in come, tourism, amounts to $217 million each year. It is predicted that the total of 7 million visitors of 1962 will become 20 million in 1970. In this connection recreational development is of highest im portance and the area of southern Oregon has an un limited potential. Jackson commented upon the Mt. Ashland ski resort as well as the lakes and declared that with completion of the freeway this year and addi tional east and west roads this area will become a distribu tion center of the Pacific coast. He said that the jet age is making existing air fields obsolete and that reconstruc tion of runways at the Med ford airport will be necessary to handle freight facilities. Recognised for Culture Southern Oregon is recog nized for its culture as well as its climate, declared the speaker, and has a bright fu ture in rapidly expanding Southern Oregon college, as well as the Shakespearean Festival. The speaker warned that southern Oregon's predicted 50 per cent population growth in the next 10 years will bring with it serious problems, some of which are already causing concern. In creasing water pollution and decreasing supply of potable water is becoming one of Roper Installed As Council President rass, secreiary-ireas- Jack Roper of Medford was installed president of the Southern Oregon Council of Painting and Decorating Con tractors at the dinner meet ing recently. Other officers lnstulled are Roy Taylor, Medford, and Jack Preston, Roseburg, vice presidents; and O. L. Havard, Grants urcr. During the discussion pe riod the members expressed the desire to work with the architects for a better quality of painting and decorating in the southern Oregon area. Jackson county's major head. aches. Jackson pointed to flood and drainage conditions and warned that immediate meas ures should be taken for co ordinating all existing agen cies. He remarked on the po tential beauty of Bear creek that now is a visible eyesore along Highway 99 and sug gested it as one of the first areas that might be de veloped. The overall picture painted by the banquet speaker was a rosy one calculated to in spire confidence in Oregon's future but modified to a de gree by experience and com mon sense. Entertainment Noted Entertainment was by the Populaires of Southern Ore gon college directed by Rich ard Schall. The mixed chorus sang three numbers, a medley from My Fair Lady, one from Show Boat and Holiday Song. Dallas Redding, baritone, sang a solo.
