Ormandy, will retire from Southern Pacific senr- lce December 1. Ormandve retirement, announced from Portland, will mark the end of a 41-year career with the rail road, the last 26 of which was spent as general passenger agent at Port land. Start I"orty-one years ago "Jim." as he is known by his many associates, took his first job in the passenger department of the Southern Pacific after learning telegraphy while working as a Western Union mes senger boy. Re has been general passenger agent since August. 1923. Before that time he held positions as office man ager of the department and assistant general passenger agent. Ormandy s retirement is volun tary under the company's pension plan. Colorful In announcing his retirement Or mandy recalled some of the most colorful periods in Oregon transpor tation history, during the more than four decades he has served with Southern Pacific Bis penod of service goes back to the days before paved roads and also dates back before the automo bile, motor truck and bus had en tered the field of transportation. Civi Minded The likeable railroad official, also actively engaged in civic activities, recalled nostalgically the days when the railroad was called on to han dle as many as 10.000 draftees at one time in World War I moving. Ormandy came to Portland as a boy of 10 when his parents moved from a Kansas farm. Fraise Southern Paciilc Vice President C. E.

Walter Norblad. republican, joined the anti-CVA forces last night. In a speech at a Young Republi can dinner here he said the Co lumbia valley administration would give too much power to few peo ple. It was his first statement on the CVA issue. - He said local groups should try to bring into harmony conflicting interests in basin development rather than to turn the problem over to what he called a "super state." By BILL JKMklNS UORE on the subject of that hear lug dou m Alturas on the grasing. Throughout Uie enure i meetlim the lorcsl service men kept i repeating that they were willing to i cooperate wuh Uie cattlemen in i any reasonable plan, that they ! would discuss things with Uicra, they would ride with them, but Uiat there must be no compromise witn the basic principles of the cut m the numbers of cattle to be allowta to graae on the forest lands. Their whoie theme was based on the idea of a long range program I hich would do the most to get full benefit from multiple use of uie land. By multiple use I take it tluy mean stock, vildlile such as deer and other game animals, lumbering, high on the list, and recreation sucu as picnic grounds and camp sites. A good Idea and a most praise worthy plan. We can't set our na tional forests aside for any one group. The cattlemen cant have it all any more than the lumber interests can be allowed to hog the whole works. And you certainly can't keep Mr. Average Taxpayer olf his own ground. And that.s just what the national forest land is. It belongs to the people of the United States. It is managed for them by the forest service, just like a fore man takes care of a man's ranch. IF you look at it In that light, and consider the evidence which was presented at the hearing it wouid seem that maybe there have beeu a few mistakes made in that man agement. If a foreman let brush grow all over your ranch and let it go and made less money on it year after year you would do one of two things. You would either fire him or you'd move in and find out what needed to be done and then tell him to do it. That's Just what Representative Engle and Burring are trying to do. They are trying, on behalf of the people, to find out what is wrong, and then recommend to their full committees a way to correct that problem. If the forest service Is willing to do all in their power to help this situation and let part of the people, the cattlemen, have their rights in the forest, it seems a strange thing that they should say yes, we'll co operate in every way, but we won't compromise on our cuts, either in number of cattle or time. That's like my saying to you. sure. 1 11 do what you want as long as I have everything my way. QONT anyone get the idea that I think the forest service is all wrong and ought to be tossed out. I don't think that at all. I merely think that there ar a lot of txe:s on both sides that need clearing up. ana the forest service didn t come out with any very concrete plans at this hearing. Nor did they put their local ranger on the floor to testily or answer any questions as to what had been done or might be done. If this study has been under way for many years, and if Oregon and other states can manage to iron out our differences, then why can't the Modoc area? Somehow I keep remembering Mr. Engle's question, repeated time and time again, how can you say that the place is overgrazed if the cattle are coming oft the area fat? And another question, how do you de termine if cow brule is In good shape or not. They call say Uist It Is a relative mailer, that thai is (at to one man Is only lair to an other, but It teem to this truer that if the rancher who gross them is satisiied, and the buyer says the rattle are In good shape lhat should be good enough for anyone. Cl'RE. something has to be done to Improve the range, but you iMn't need to use all Hit cattle nil the area to do it. It isnt a bit of work on a few fields. It covers thousands of acres, and surely, at the rate it la being done, there la room for both Uie cattle and the improvements. mmm mi j HMga i mm Infection Delays Sight Saying Fight PORTAND, Nov. 10 i-v A slisht infection will delay an operation to save the sight of a 12-yrar-old girl who is the reading eye and guide of her blind parent..
