Some of the steps being
taken by the forest products
industry in southern Oregon
to develop a new image in the
eyes of the public were out
lined Monday by the execu
tive vice president of the
Med ford Corporation.
In an address to the Med
ford Chamber of Commerce
Roundtable, the executive,
Russell J. Hogue, said that up
to now the industry has been
too busy with its own progress
and development to worry
about it, but "we do care what
the public thinks of us.'
Hogue said he felt that in
the past an "uninformed pub
lic has developed "hostility
toward the lumber industry.
Viewed With Distaste
The public viewed loggers
with "distaste," Hogue said
they disliked log trucks, they
were annoyed with the
"smoke and cinders of the
mills," and regarded freight
trains carrying lumber as an
irritant.
But now, he said, the indus
try wants to bring the public
up to date on some changes
that have been effected in re
cent years.
"It is our job now to inform
the public on what we, as an
industry, are doing," he said.
He pointed out that the for.
est products industries in
southern Oregon employ
about 5,000 people, with an
annual area payroll of $25
million. This multiplies to
"gross economic impact on the
area of $81 million," he said.
One-Third of Industry
Forest products industries,
he said, comprise about one
third of the total industrial
payroll in southern Oregon. In
addition the industry in this
area contributes hundreds of
thousands of dollars in taxes
to the federal and state gov
ernments, he said.
A development to which the
industry points with pride is
selective logging, or the
"partial cut," he said, where
by between 30 and 40 per cent
of the timber is harvested at
one time in a particular tract.
The balance, then, is thinned
out in future years.
With this method, he said.
it is difficult for the public
to tell what areas have been
logged. After the partial cut
has been made, the remaining
growth has a better chance to
remain healthy and mature
properly, the executive said.
Requiring Type of Cut
The federal govern m e n t
now tends to require this type
of cut, Hogue said, rather than
the old "clear cut" type, in
which all usable timber in a
tract was harvested at one
time.
He said the timber area on
the Grecnsprings, which has
been harvested seven times, is
frequently used as an example

he said, because I was "dif
ferent.
Francis N. I've come to
the conclusion that my wife
does wacky things just to be
noticed, not because she en
joys her "stunts." At a for
mal family party, she'll be the
only one wearing toreador
pants. Or in the middle of
serious conversation with
friends she breaks things up
by showing she can juggle
three saucers. How about
some poise?
Clarice N. Back in De
troit where Frank pursued
and married me, he thought
I was "like a breath of fresh
air" in his life. But now that
we're East among his family,
he keeps "explaining" me to
them, apologizing for my non
conformist tastes. They're
such a stuffy bunch that may
be I try extra hard not to be
like them. I must fight to be
myself.
The Council: There are two
types of non-conformity, the
constructive and the reckless.
The first is creative and re
freshing, the other is dead
and antisocial. Clarice seems
to be a fey creature, so fear
ful of being pinned to so
ciety's assembly-line pattern
that she ignores the fine line
between the two levelcs of
rebellion . . . Also. Francis'
desertion" of her cause, his
about-face, comes as a shock.
Her "free soul" impulses
which charmed and fascinat
ed him in Detroit just annoy
him now that he views them
with the cold eyes of his pre-
Clarice days. The kooky orig
inality has begun to pall. To
him: You can't have it both
ways, loving Clarice's un
trammeled, wide-eyed ap
proach to life, yet ploughing
it under. With the same sensi
tivity you used in wooing
her, you must help her de
velop judgment as to when
to dip into her trunkful of
whimsey. To her: You can
still "be yourself" without re
sorting to extremes of attention-getting
devices. Spare
Francis' blushes. When
things get sticky, hold on to
your wooden smile. But on
the way home, alone with
Francis, go singin' in the rain
and barefoot, too, if you
wish.
to government agencies of the
benefits of the partial cut
method.
Log truckers, once the
scourge of the roads, have
"really come of age." he said.
The truckers have banded
together to develop safety
rules and draw up courteous
driving practices, he said. He
said the truckers' contribution
in tax money for road devel
opment was "astronomical."
Hogue said. "You can't
judge the whole group by the
occasional individual who mis
handles his truck."
Used to Be Happy
Turning to the matter of air
pollution, Hogue said that
"People used to be happy to
see smoke coming from a
mill's stacks because it meant
jobs and payrolls."
But now, with an expanded
population, Hogue said, the
public no longer finds the
situation tolerable.
He admitted that despite
voluntary efforts at abate
ment, at considerable cost to
area forest products indus
tries, the burners "unfortu
nately" still produce some
smoke.
Part of the problem is
caused, he said, by the neces
sity of burning "m i x e d
species" of wood, which are
difficult to burn smoke-free.

"and we're working on it."
He said representatives of
the industry in the area had
held two meetings recently
with a team of wood was-.e
experts from Oregon State
university about the air pol

Pronounced Problem
"They told us that with our
air inversion and the burning
of mixed species of wood, we
have the most pronounced
problem they had encountered
anywhere," Hogue said.
He said the experts had
slated they would return to
the area in the near future
"to give a thorough study io

Hogue said that during the

by slash burning, a require

EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLANS
Early this month, Union Carbide distributed $68 million
lo 57,167 of its employees across the country. It was a routine
distribution and Union Carbide announced it In a routine
press release but the news highlighted one of the most expen
sive fringe benefits American industry offers to jobholders
the employee savings plan.
Probably not more than 150 corporations in the U.S. have
employee savings plans today. Among them, though, are
recognized leaders of industry - of the calibre of General
Motors, U.S. Steel, Standard Oil of New Jersey, Coca-Cola,
duPont - and thus covered by these plans are an estimated
2 million workers. Moreover, the plans are growing at an
annual rale of 10 to 20, bringing in hundreds of thousands
of additional workers each year.
Little it known about these plant. In fact, the tint
comprehensive study ever made of them was released
only last fall by the National Industrial Conference,
Board. It analysed 97 plam in 94 companies, it a basic
guide to Ihil "epecial type of employee benefit."
The fundamental mechanism of an employee savings plan
is simple.
(1) A participant voluntarily contributes part of his salary
through payroll deductions. The most common contribution
is 5 to 6 per cent of his salary although in a fair minority
of instances, the contribution ranges lo 8-10 per cent of
his pay.
(2) Tho company then matches all or pari nt the partici
pant's savings with a company contribution. The average is
5(1 cents by the company for each $1 the employee saves but
the corpornlion contribution runs as high as $2 for every $1
the employee saves. ,
CD The company and employee contributions are put Into
an employee trust fund to be Invested and later paid out to
the employees. In most cases, some or all of the funds are
placed In the company's common stock. U S. savings bonds
also are a popular medium. A typical investment would
be a combination of the corporation's stock and U.S. govern
ment securities.
More than 85 per cent of employees of companies offer
ing these plans take advanlage of them, most are saving
at the maximum rule the plan permits, most stay in the plan
until their jobs are terminated.
The cost of the plans lo the companies Is, in the words
of one expert, "shockingly high" The average cost Is $167
a year for rach employee In the plan, excluding adminis
trative expenses, but the NICE) found thai in at least one
instance, the cost runs to $818 per employee per year. To
indicate how this expense compares with other benefits, the
U.S. Chamber of Commerce found that in 1(159, pension costs
averaged $214 per employee per year and group Insurance
costs averaged $114 per year.
Why, In view nt the rnst of the plans and the fact that
unions have not fought tor the benefit, do Ihe companies
offer the programs?
The answer is threefold: to recruit and retain
stable, loyal, productive work force: to encourage em
ployees to become company stockholders; to encourage
employees to save systematically lo supplement their
basic pension benefits. In the words of the NICB, "It
is quite evident that a primary objective of 90 per cent
of these plans is to create a large group ol company
stockholders among the company work force. The hope
Is, of course, that an employee-stockholder will consider
himself r partner in )he enterprise and identify himself
more closely with the company, its management and its
special problems."
The objectives apparently ate being attained. A Union
Carbide executive says the company's plan is a "morale
builder'1 which "tends to make people think twice before
they leave us." Other corporation executives sav the plans
i make employees much more conscious of the price of their
; company's stock and the importance of company profits.
Became of the expense of the plans lo corporations, it's
Improbable that this benefit's growth will ever approach
that of pension and deferred profit-sharing plans But It's
superb "plus" for any employer fortunate enough lo be
eligible lo save and Invent llns way. (
