( HAOS IX CONSTRUCTION
One of the greatest problems facing us today is adequate
housing for American families within their financial ability to
rent or buy.
There has been utter confusion as to where the housing
responsibility lies. Some say, “Let Uncle Sant do it with public
projects." But overburdened taxpayers, including those in need
of housing, see the dangers of this approach.
If you like the Northwest
the way it is
please don’t litter.
Some earnest citizens blame zoning laws, others the build­
ing codes. These points are debatable. The basic answer may
l>e found in a single word: money.
The National Association of Manufacturers has become
concerned with the accelerating building costs and has publish­
ed a study entitled, “Chaos in the Construction Industry.”
The opening paragraph sums up the story: “Labor condi­
tions in the $90 billion construction industry have reached pro­
portions which demand the urgent attention of both the private
and public sectors. Aggravated by highly inflationary contract
settlements, excessive work stoppages and stifling work prac­
tices, the labor problems in this industry present a dramatic
threat to the national economy as well as to the industry in
general.”
While the private non-farm economy experienced a 2.9 per
cent annual increase in productivity from 1959 to 1996, the con­
struction industry experienced a .3 percent annual decrease in
productivity for the same period. The median wage increases
in construction have gone up three times that of oth<*e indus­
tries.
Isn't it about time that labor leadci-s consider their respon­
sibility to the public in this issue?
LYONS — Mr. and Mrs.
Percy Hiatt with their son-in-
law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs.
Harry Elmer of Albany, re­
turned home Thursday, July
24, from a vacation trip, travel­
ing 3129 miles by camper, cov­
ering six states. They went by
the way of Spokane to Missou­
la, Mont., and south to the
North entrance of Y ellowsto.ie
National park on through the
park to the Eastern part and
then to Sundance, Wyo. They
visited at the home of Harry
Johnson, uncle of Mr. Elmer.
Then? they met his brother-
in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs.
Frank Roads, also his cousin,
Volney Johnson. Afer spend­
ing two days there they went'
to Salt Lake City and visited,
the Mormon Tabernacle and
other points of interest, also the
Salt Lake beaches.

very not in Utah and Idaho

is being continued. Lynn said
the District is having prob­
lems created by careless smok­
ers and by some campfires that
have not been )>ut out before
leaving. The public is again be­
ing warned to observe the rules
and regulations when using
the forests. It must be remem­
bered the forest is not only a
playground, but the home of
many forest creatures, as well
as the livelihood of many fam­
ilies in the area.
Lynn said three fires occur­
red over the weekend, a small
one at Pamelia Lake caused
by a campfire, and two small
fires which burned into one at
Marion Creek, apparently caus­
ed by careless smokers. In ad­
dition two small fires occurred
over the 4th of July weekend
bv careless people who failed
to extinguish their campfires.
These were in the Tumble
Lake area, and the Scorpion
Creek area on the Breitenbush.
A small fire in the Crown
Lake area, inside the Primitive
area, some 20 miles north and
east of Detroit flared up Satur­
day afternoon from a holdover
from a lightning storm last
week. Lynn said. Smoke jump­
ers were called in from the
Redmona Air Center Saturday
afternoon and the blaze was
brought under control Satur­
day night. The blaze was ex­
tinguished Sunday morning
and the smoke jumpers return­
ed to their base at Redmond.
