Chairman, Klamath Stop Forest Fire Program
WITH the first half of the war now over,
we must continue to Keep Oregon Green!
Now more than ever before the conservation of
our great forests is uppermost in our efforts.
In peacetime, the northwest supplied the nation
with one-third of its forest products.- Now
with the demand of war our Umber products
must and are being taxed to the maximum. It
is only reasonable, then that we think more
seriously of more efficient and wide-spread
precautionary measures for them. That is the
purpose of this day: to warn and advise the
people of our community and state about the
necessity of keeping our mighty resource, tim
ber, from being destroyed by carelessness.
Looking back these ten years that I have
been chairman of this noteworthy program, it
is with much satisfaction that I and the Ameri
can Legion committee have watched its pro
gress, not only in our state, but in the whole
of the Pacific northwest where great stands of
fir and pine exist. Our community can be
thankful that in the American Legion there was
one man who was farsighted enough to see the
future of the timber industry and how it could
be protected by an educational program in the
prevention of forest fires. This member is
none other than Hal Ogle. Hal has been con
nected with Weyerhaeuser Timber company
for many years and is now the manager of
the KFPA. Hal visioned the birth of this pro
gram and saw this idea grow and advance until
finally it was adopted by the state. This move- ,
ment is now known as the "Keep Oregon
Green Program."
Program Aids Payrolls
WHILE the Stop Forest Fires committee is
in complete harmony with this program,
we are also keeping the fact in our mind that
through a continual educational program, each
year we are protecting the payrolls of this
industry in Klamath county as well as furnish
ing the material so vitally needed in the win
ning of this war. In this era of mechanized
warfare, it may come as a surprise to some
that our navy is still as dependent upon forest
products as they were in the days of John Paul
Jones. For example, a steel hulled battleship'
requires 300,000 board feet for each decking
alone. A single mobile dry dock for ship re
pair and maintenance may require nearly 1,000,
000 board feet of lumber. So we can see that,,
lumber is truly a vital product now. Battleships
are not the only instruments of war that are
dependent upon wood. Ammunition boxes and
rifle stocks for our fighting infantry, camp
cots that are homes away from home, for the
fighting man. Life rafts that make it possible
for those same men to come home are all
made of wood. Our supply lines now will
reach every point of the globe and in order for
our supplies to reach our sons and daughters
in the best condition, wood has no equal. There
is no substitute for irreplaceable wood in this
tremendous packing and crating Job. So the
men and women who work tirelessly in the
lumber industry and those men who continually
guard our forests from fire and destruction are
the ones that the nation depends upon to a
great extent in the winning of the war.
This is not- merely hearsay or the . talk - of
men who are directly associated with the lum
ber industry as a means to push their pro
ducts, but actual facts. This is a great war and
every ounce of vital material is needed and
wood is a vital material, a very vital material
that must be conserved.
a a .
: Emergency Great Now
THE immediate emergency is great and every
effort put forth by the many tireless in
dividuals who strive to protect our forests is as
much a part of our great fighting team as the '
army or navy. Their names should be placed
on the honor roll alongside the names of our
fighting men, for their accomplishments are as
great and noteworthy as the accomplishments
of the men who shoulder the guns.
Our country and state can be thankful that
this Stop Forest Fire Program was inaugurated
long before the present emergency developed.
We know that the industry here in our county
is very grateful to the local post of the Ameri
can Legion for their untiring effort for the
continual year-in and year-out educational pro
gram to the citizens. We ask that when you
go into the forests whether it be for hunting,
fishing, or to summer homes, that you be sure
your camp fires are completely dead, and that
you take every precaution to guard against fire.
This last winter was very mild. Here, for
. Instance, we could drive over the Green Springs
mountains, and hills were bare of snow. This'
same condition existed nearly all over our state.
What the fire season will bring this - year is
hard to predict. We do not know just what
may happen from the forces that oppose us.
It is common knowledge that a short time ago,
a strange object was discovered in the sur
rounding territory. What grief this may cause
the lumber Industry, Is hard to forecast at this
tunc, tiut, in closing my remarks, let me say
to those who go into the mountains to hunt
and fish, be alert should you find or hear of
strange objects being close by. Don't let your
curiosity prevail on you to Investigate these,
but report them to your closest forest ranger
or warden. Keep this thought in mind and
caution your children or guests accordingly,
so that we won't have a recurrance of the
same disaster that happened near BIy a short
time ago.
Security Depends On Forests
CERTAINLY our very security depends upon
the production capacity of our forest lands.
Keeping Oregon and Klamath green means more
than just keeping the state and county beautiful,
for the products of forests are as essential
in war as guns, and as necessary in peace as
bread. The direct money loss, while import
ant, isn't the greatest danger. Worse is the
fact that lands frequently burned over lose
their caDacity for reproduction. America needs
productive forest lands, not fire blackened
wastes, for America needs the things these
forests produce.
It is in this spirit of serious consideration
of the menace of fire in our forests that we
set aside this day to emphasize the one pro
gram which is vital to us all KEEP OREGON
GREEN.
SIDE GLANCES
News Behind The News
By PAUL MALLON
WASHINGTON, June 12 In a very quiet
way, Mr. Truman has started choosing
judges on a democratic party basis rather than
for their New Dealism.
If he has any intention of reforming the
federal judiciary, however, it will require his
lifetime at least. In four terms, Mr. Roosevelt
chose about 85 per cent of the present judiciary.
His appointees were not weighed so much in
strictly judicial scales, for superior legal
minds or evenhanded sense of justice, but for
their advocacy of New Dealism and its social
ideology.
You can begin to see a fresh line being
started by Mr. Truman, in the facts down be
hind his first three choices. These set what
seemed to be strictly a party rule, holding that
where the New Dealers are locally in control
he will name their men, but where democrats
wield the dominant influence he will nominate
theirs arbitrating any clashes' with compromise
selections of his own.
You can also see behind the ins and outs
of these first three cases why Attorney General
Biddle is being ushered out of office so hurried
ly. Truman's first appointment was Donald Gil
liam as federal judge of North Carolina. Gilliam
is not a reactionary and not a New Dealer, but
was recommended by a southern anti-New
Deal democrat, Senator Bailey. Gilliam has a
good reputation as a lawyer, yet Bailey's effort
to get him nominated was blocked in the justice
department by Biddle for months before Tru
man came in. Biddle wanted to dispense
ideologies as well as justice from the bench,
says Bailey. The senator trotted down to the
White House, saw Mr. Truman, and Biddle was
over-ruled.
w "
Hannegan Intervenes
FOR the Minnesota federal judgeship, the
inside story is that Democratic National
Chairman Bob Hannegan intervened between
factions to name another man against a Biddle
candidate. At any rate, Mr. Truman nomin
ated Daennis Donovan, of Duluth, who was
attorney for the Oliver Iron Mining company,
although organized labor is friendly to him. He
also is a qualified man, and Hannegan compli
mented Duluth for going to Roosevelt in the
last election if "compliment" is the proper
word. At any rate Biddle wanted District
Attorney Victor Anderson, although labor did
not.
The third appointee for the eastern district
of Michigan, Arthur A. Koscinski, Detroit, was
charged with being a communist although the
charge seems to have been false, judged by the
evidence here. Koscinski once presided at a
banquet of a Slavic organization which is pro
communist, but the chief speaker at the same
banquet was Biddle himself. More convincing
proof, however, is that Koscinski is a Catholic
and a member of the board of a Catholic in
situation. At any rate Biddle held up his
appointment many months, for one reason or
another, although it bore the backing of the
Polish congressman of Detroit, and had the
support of the state party organization as well
as the national committeeman. Koscinski is
CIO and a New Dealer, but his naming can be
accurately characterized as a party appointment.
Departing Opposition
THESE three all have in common the backing
of their state, senatorial or congressional
organization, although strictly only one is a
New Dealer. They also have in common the
opposition of the departing attorney general.
This change of judicial line has proved popu
lar in congress; nevertheless, it must be re
ported the honeymoon is about over. When
the new president followed the Roosevelt path
way and rebuked the house rules committee
for blocking the fair employment practises
bill for negroes, one southern democratic leader
(a senator) privately prophesied the south would
not stay with Truman as long as It did with
Roosevelt, "if sharp sectional issues, like this,
develop." It is his view the south took much
from Mr. Roosevelt for his lifting of the cot
ton price and other anti-depression measures. -In
any event, it must be reported that where
Truman has followed the Roosevelt line ($25
a week employment insurance instead of $20,
as well as FEPC) congress is developing signs
of formidable resistance.
