I TIMBERLINE
8—The Mill Ciity tiiterprise, Thursday, July 21, I960
By John E. Kenneth
Joint use of forest land must
be more than just tolerated, it
must be developed and expand
ed as a desirable goal in order
to make limited land go farther
in meeting human needs.
This was the gist of an ad
dress before the recent Olympic
Logging Congress in Victoria.
B. C. by H. R. Glascock Jr.,
| >f Portland, forest counsel for
Western Forestry and Conser
vation association.
Glascock said loggers recog
nize that most forest land is
adapted to joint use, that the
simultaneous use of land for
I water and wildlife along with
■ timber production is indeed well
nigh unprevent able. Roads de
veloped by logging, he added,
I become key access roads for
I recreationists.

The beginnings of a new
'chemical industry built on wood
I which may change man’s whole
•concept of this ancient material
are being laid by forest in-
i dustries and government re-
i searchers, according to a recent
I article in Reader's Digest.
I Such a development would pro-
I vid a broad new industrial base
for Oregon.
"We’re only about 10 years
away from it.” says Dr. Ed
ward G. Locke, director of the
Forest Products Laboratory at
Madison, Wise. "And in anotb-
' er 50 years lignin (the 'glue*
I which nature uses to hold the
I fibers of the trees together)
along may be a major source
¡of industrial chemicals."
Tile world's chemical Indus
try is anchored largely to coal
, and petroleum deposits, which
I are limited and non-renewable.
j But tree farming would assure
j constant replenishments for a
| new chemical industry based
ion the resources of the forest.

S’mon Eenson, pioneer lum
berman who created the foun-
tains that dot Portland s down
town streets so that thirsty log
gers could get a drink without
turning to wassail, was not ex
actly a prohibitionist. Author
Stewart Holbrook records in
his book, "Holy Old Mackin
aw?" that Benson kept his
woods running when others
closed for the usual long Fourth
of July shutdown by bringing a
barrel of free whiskey into
camp. That way they’d lose
only a day or two instead of a
couple of weeks.
