Engle Asks
Change In
Forest Unit
WASHINGTON Ml Two Oregon
and Washington Congressmen Fri
day opposed a pioposal that the
Lakeview, Ore., sustained yield
forest unit be abolished or enlarged
to Include a nearby California lum
bering concern.
The proposal was made by Rep.
Engle (D-Callf.) who accused the
Forest Service of taking It upon
itself to determine "who's troinc to
survive and who's going broke. '
ncp. Macs iK-wasn.i told a
House Agriculture subcommittee
passage of Engle'a bill would set a
precedent and "create a tear In Uie
communities where such programs
now exist that would defeat the pur
pose oi ino-OMi. '
Rep. Ellsworth cKOK.Tlbld th
subcommittee It does not have the
technical knowledge to pass on ad
ministrative phases of the sustained
yieia program and should not abol
ish the unit unless convinced that
the Forest Service's administration
is bod.
The forest unit u aet nn In ISM.
It provides that national forest Um
ber cut Within lis boundaries tnnut
be manufactured In the Lakeview
and Paisley. Om., areas.
Edward P. Cliff, assistant chief
forester and former forest supervi
sor of the Fremont National Forest
in which the unit lies, said 60 per
cent of the Lakevlew-Palsley com
munities are dependent on wood
using Industries for support.
He said the unit can support a cut
of only 50 million board feet yearly
although the four mills already In
the two communities have a capa
city of 65 million.
These mills, he said, support the
two 'communities while the Willow
Ranch mill, which Engle would
Include within the unit, would not
because It Is In Californln.
Engle contended geographical
and not state boundaries should
determine the unit.
The subcommittee took the ques
tion under consideration.

EFFECTS
In Washington. D. C, the As
sociated Press reported Stabilizer
Arnall said the vote In the Senate
would have these effects:
1. It will make effective enforce.
mcnt of the potato price regulation
virtually impossioie.
2. Distribution of the potato
crop would be so complicated since
shippers would tend lo withold
supplies In expectation that con
trols on potatoes would be ended
by Congressional action July 1.
The price of potatoes shot up-
waras tnis season because ol low
production, much ol which was
probably brought on by the drop
ping of price supports on potatoes
by the government. Even without
any announced supports this year.
poiato production is expected to In
crease to a great extent. Already
planted acreage in tho Klamath
area is estimated. at about 25 per
cent above last year, though about
live per cent below 1850 s record
crop year which saw surpluses
turned under and fed to stock in
many parts of the country.
During Uie early potato price
ceiling fight, spud men announced
they felt a check of UulaUon was
necessary, even In Uie potato in
dustry, but that the controls as
then established, were not lair.
BLACK MARKET'"
The following potato shortage
which brought out signs of "yes,
we have no potatoes" in Southern
California shops, also stepped up
reported black marketing activity.
The OPS was reported by Uie
AP as charging black market
activity in the Klamath Falls and
Twin Falls, Ida., areas, but later
claimed in a letter to the Herald
and News it had been misquoted.
though subsequent correspondence
with reporters who picked up Uie
story failed to straighten out Uie
matter.
Local growers protested vigor
ously to Uie "black market" tag
given them, calling on the OPS
to show the world where the black
market existed.
No local black, marketing has
been publicly reported, though in
one or two cases Uie price office
issued restraining orders against
buying practices among buyers
doing business with Klamath
farmers.

OhioanSays
Chances Uo
For GOP Nod
CINCINNATI I Sen. Taft of
Ohio believes his chances for the
Republican presidential nomination
have been improved since Gen.
Eisenhower's speech at Abilene,
Kans., Wednesday. . ..
The Ohio senator didn't elabor
rate but that was the answer he
pave to a question put to him Thurs
day night in a radio (MBSI broad
cast of "Reporter's Roundup."
The senator was questioned dur
ing the broadcast by Joseph Sag-
master, associate editor of the Cin
cinnati Times - 8 tar; Joseph Oar
retson, Cincinnati Enquirer Colum
nist, and Robert L. Rlggs. po
litical writer for the Louisville
Courier-Journal.
TAFT-HARTLEY
Discussion of Oen. Eisenhower's
speech also brought a statement
from Taft that he had the Impres
sion Uie general favors repeal of
uie I all-Hartley labor law.
"The implication Is that he favors
the repeal of Uie act," Taft said.
"That seems to be the necessary
conclusion." '
Taft added, however, that "I
hope that I'm wrong In my under
standing ol what Oen. Eisenhower
said." He reiterated bis belief that
the law "is the most effecUve way
today of stopping strikes.'' .
Eisenhower said in a speech at
Aoiiene, &ans., Wednesday the set
tlement of grievances and disputes
requires a climate ol good win,
an appreciation of good citzenshlp
and responsible concern for all the
people and most important
public confidence in the fairness
and impartiality of appointed
agents and agencies."
An ounce of real leadershin and
honest speech, Uie general added,
will benefit America more than a
ton of law that fails to reflect the
considered will of the vast majority.
we cannot take legislation that
compels people to work," Elsen
hower said at a press conference.
That is regimentation."
KOREAN WAR
On the subject of the war in Ko
rea, Sen. Taft said, "I would try
to make peace even though it may
be an unsatisfactory peace."
Declaring the Korean affair had
been "mismanaged,' Taft said
there is "great risk In resuming
general war with Uie Chinese Com
munists." The senator renewed his plea for
a strong air force which he said
was necessary lo protect the na
tion. He said it was "perfectly ridicu
lous" to send S10.000, 000,000 to aid
Europe at the expense of a strong
air force.
Taft added that the United States
would be open to air attack from
Siberia or across the Arctic even
though there was a "wall of men
across Europe."

The Senate then put aside until
Monday all legislation dealing with
Uie strike. . . ... .
Steelman wasn't so specific but
said be had talked with McFar

"I certainly am not pessimistic,"
Steelman told newsmen, "but I
wouldn't want to overstate my op

Tank Output
Hit By Strike
WASHINGTON W The Army
Is expressing concern over the Im
pact of the steel strike on its tank
production program.
During the past two months, a
spokesman said Friday in answer
to questions, trie "production pic
ture has improved greatly."
Eut, ne said, uie steet sirixe
"will have an adverse effect on
tank production, an effect which
wul become progressively worse
the longer the strike lasts." ;
Tank building represents one of
the military's major needs for steel.
To make one of the new T-41
together with spare parts, a total
of 68,800 pounds' ot steel (34 2-5
tons) must be on hand; a medium
tank of about 48 tons needs 118,000
pounds.
The army declined to disclose me
total amount of light, medium and
heavy tanks for the current pro
duction program.
However, in recent testimony De
fore a congressional committee.
Gen. J. Lawton Collins. Army chief
of staff, remarked that if Congress
went through witn a planned cut in
the military budget for the next
fiscal year starting July 1 the Army
would have to "eliminate over
3.000 medium tanks" from its pro
gram.
He said that would mean we
could build only 300 tanks for our
army during Uie entire fiscal
year." .
