TUESDAY, OCTOBER 22. 19S3 Woodland We have never seen the woods quite as lovely as they were last week when it was our good for tune to venture into them in the company of Curtis Nesheim, district warden of the State De partment of Forestry. In southern Josephine county, virtually all the older clear-cuts (and there are many) were decked out in outrageously lavish colors bril liant reds and yellows, subtle browns, greens ranging from the somber dark of the towering firs to the almost iridescence of the turning maples. The mountain skyline, so often sharp and jagged in the distance, was softened by fog and low clouds and, later, by drifting smoke from slash fires. rUR TRAVELS took us to Selma on liigh way 1(J9, past Lake Selmac the new, man-made body of water over which a dispute is in progress between fishermen and water skiers and up McMullcn and Thompson creeks to view slash burning in progress. Slash-burning is an operation of which we have always been critical, and we look forward to the day when it will be entirely eliminated. Meanwhile, we must concede that the economics of logging and the hazards of fire in dry slash combine to justify it under certain circumstances. But most foresters are coming to the conclu sion that the least slash burning possible the bet ter; also, that when it is done, it must be done carefully, and with full attention given to weath er, terrain, method, techniques and supervision. fTHE TWO slash-burning operations we wit--- nesscd were both on steep north slopes. The slash (flash fuel, branches and cull logs left over lrom a logging operation) was damp. T here was a heavy log and the As much as possible, centrated into piles or around and through the Actually, the men doing the burning, using cans of diesel oil with a flaming spout, were having difficulty in getting the slash to burn. "That's the way it should be," Nesheim said. COME DAY, hopefully, feasible to take all fiber out of the woods forest products. Chips iromising possibilities. Hut there must be a mar ket for them before trucking the marginal prod ucts can be afforded. The time may come, when wood fiber, as distinct from wood or lum ber, will be the chief product of our forests. But that time is not yet, and until it is, the "wasteful" practices of today will remain the most practical and economical. Some of the "waste" now left in the woods, as a matter of fact, serves a useful purpose in sheltering reproduction growth, and funning humus for the renewing forests. A FTER THE slash inspections, we continued on good forest and county roads, up Deer Creek, around to the cast of Krrby and Holcomb peaks, then down into the Williams Creek valley, up logging roads to the Low Divide area and down Grayback Creek to the Oregon Caves high way. This is, generally, the route which has long been advocated by m a (including Cave Junction's longtime Mayor, El wood llussey) for a shorter route to Medford. It is passable now. But if you decide to try ii, go wiin some one who Knows tne route, or take a good, new map along. The roads aren't bad, but on the oast slope they ami a numuer oi log.nine, .1 1. ... 1 . .

Ex-Presidents ' Form In a little-noticed action, the Senate of the United States recently enacted a measure which would welcome former Presidents to its hallowed precincts, to sit, speak, debate and offer advice as non-voting "members" of the Senate. While it is somewhat doubtful that Mr. Hoover, Mr. Truman or Mr. Eisenhower will take advantage of this privilege, still it is a good idea. Former Presidents, having suffered the pressures of the toughest office in the world, could have much to offer, should they desire the podium the Senate provides. One hopes they may take advantage of it. If not, it is more likely that Mr. Kennedy, when leaving office, may wish to return to his old arena, either as an "honorary" ireinber, or, once again, as a U. S. Senator.

Ihe Golden Pavilion seems to float upon the surface of Ihe little lake, which lovingly reflects the building's bright gold lacquer and Ihe deep blue-green of the encircling pine clad hills. The hillsides that embrace the lake, the lake itself, and the lake's islands, large and small, form a single incomparable gar den. The site must always have been very beautiful. But every feature has been enhanced, in tensified, made magical by art ful encouragement of the moss carpet under the pines, by care ful accenting with great rocks, by the long-considered, seeming ly artless shaping of the banks of the lake, and by the islands and great granite stepping stones that give a variety to the tranquil water. As (or the pavilion al the lake's edge, it has no ornament properly so-called except the golden phoenix perched upon its roof-pinnacle. There is nothing to it, really, except pure form Ihe rhythm of its delicately var ied bracketting, Ihe stronger rhythm of ils repealing roof curves, and the central rhythm uf Ihe diminishing spaces en closed by ils three stories. w YET these pure forms, so ele gant, so subtly understated, have been raised to purest fan tasy by the contrast between the simple, almost rough wooden construction of the lowest, open est story, and the warm, rich, glorious, butler - yellow gold w solidly covers the two upper Mm ica.

For the Golden Pavilion itself can quite as reasonably be call ed a wicked building as a beau tiful building. Its mere construction started a bloody costly civil war And the taxes Yoshimitsu levied to j pay for his exquisite pavilion and the related structures which are now lost spurred the strong Constable of the West, Ouchi Yoshijiro, to raise the standard of revolt. Rivers of blood flowed, and many hundreds of thousands endured the utmost misery be fore that gilt-bronze phoenix was triumphantly affixed to the pa vilion's roof-pinnacle. Nor is that all.

Under this system, actual control of the government is in the hands of the more lm- portant ministers, who are all members of Parliament, CHIEF of the Cabinet is (he Prime Minister He SELECTS THE OTHER MEMBERS OF THE CABINET. So. ou see. the Prime Min ister is a Very Important Per son In authority and responsi bility, he is the British equiva lent of the President of the United Stales. HOW d:d all this come about? It's much loo long to be gone mutest resemblance lo reality. The effective and reliable spy is not a glamorous and color ful character, nor is he that depressed member of the half world so dear lo the hearts of .Mr. (irccne and his many imitators. It is "cover" thai makes a spy valuable; and the best cover in modern society is ordinary respectability. Some spies have been foreign serv ice officials, some have been physicists, sonic doctors, some exporters and import' ers but all have moved in commonplace circles, with wives and children, attending conventions, going on picnics, and maintaining a consistent professional status. As in Chesterton's story, "Tho Invisible Man" (in which a post- m an commits a minder wi h j impunity, because nobody 'sees a postman as a man, j but only as a function), the spy i above all wants no attention called to himself: he submerges himself in his environment and takes on the color of his occu pation and status, as the post, man puis on his uniform, which is distinctive, brightly colored, and yet "invisible." But of such ordinary stuff, adventure novels c a n n o t bo made; just as detective stories cannot be written about tho dull, plodding, patient routine, that culminates in the arrest. ; For spies, when we apprehend them, turn out to be super ficially, at least like Ihe man on the porch next door. the United States. 2.
