OREGON CITY. June M Ufy-A
second survey ot Uie Clarkamaa
river watershed waa made Wednes
day to Investigate chargea that the
Oregon city water aupuly as en
dangered by logging Uiere.
The charges came from John
Burden, clackamaa county sani
tarian, who blamed the bureau of
laud management tor the logging
on the south fork of the river.
Daniel L. Ooldy, regional admin
istrator of the bureau of land man
agement, asserted the chargea were
groundless. He said logging there
was proceeding according to plan,
and that It helped, rather Utan
harmed, the watershed.
Ooldy added that the selective
logging and scattered cuttings made
there would promote a better cover
ot young trees and provided a more
vigorous root growth to retain water.
He said this method waa employed
In the Seattle watershed.
He also said the metltod enabled
counties to augment Income, point
ing out western Oregon counties re

ooo annually from O C timber
