by KEN McLEOD
With expanding population there
likewise develops an Increasing de
mand upon the outdoor areas for
recreation. Recreation areas that
appear to be adequate In 1964 will
be entirely inadequate by 1964, in
tact, our present recreational fa
cilities in the National Forests have
already begun to show the fact
that they are Inadequate to accom
modate the demands placed upon
them. The use of our State and
National parks has Increased
greatly and some of these areas,
especially In California are begin
ning to show signs of deteriora
tion under the Impact of current
use levels.
Direct human use is a most im
portant factor In the changing pat
tern of land use within a region
and the opportunity for outdoor
recreation In natural environments
is. one of the mainstays of the
Important Tourist industry. Marsh
land, woodland, lakes, rivers,
mountains are all essential units
in a successful program to meet
the needs and requirements of a
well balanced recreational pro
gram. The expansion of some
forms of outdoor recreational use
is already becoming limited by the
available facilities.
Any community which looks in
telligently to the future must rec
ognize the demand for recreation
al use of wild land areas and that
the demand for recreational use of
such land will expand under the
combined effects of a greatly ex
panding population. The increase
in leisure time and Improvements
in trsnsportatlon, with super high
ways reschlng out from our moun
tain areas to the centers of dense
population are beckoning fingers to
people to seek the freshness of the
outdoors not everyone will
spend their leisure time sitting In
darkened rooms watching TV.
The problem posed in this coming
demand is one of balancing the de
mands for a way of life with the
essential needs of providing for a
means of livelihood. The question
foremost todsy Is whether we have
the vision to recognise these fu
ture demands of a great recrea
tional industry or whether in our
blindness we will let personal greed
for Immediate use destroy a great
potential that In the end will have
to be rehabilitated at an exces
sive cost to the recreational indus
try. The callousness with which we
destroy places of great value to
Uie general recreational field is an
amazing element of our present
day civilisation. It la generally ac
cepted that certain areas of super
lative recreational and aesthetic
values should be reserved from
agricultural and Industrial use
yet how often are we willing to
concede these values if some
agency or Individual proposed
plans for developing them for some
Immediate financial gain?
Not all destruction, however,
comes about from the desire of
personal gain often destruction is
1 created merely for convenience and
1 a lack of appreciation of the latent
values a place may present. Such
destruction often comes through the
development of highways now
lor example right in our own back
yard I can point to the careless
indifference with which the Oregon
Highway engineers destroyed the
natural potential of Barclay
Springs above Algoma. Here Is
a most desirable wayside area
that is essential as a unit in the
enjoyment of our Upper Klamath
Lake area. In fact Barclay Springs
is one stopping spot on the high

struction has been deliberately
created Just to satisfy personal
ego. 11 some one gets enjoyment
in the area it needs to be wiped
out. We find this rather queer
quirk of thinking In many forest
situations, in some instances the
excuse is "If people stop there the
place will become a danger spot
for fire." In other instances It can
be a deliberate act just to show
some people-the owner's right to
do Just as he please. Oh! Yesl We
have examples of Just that right
In our own country. Perhaps the
best one that comes to my mind at
the present time wos the pass at
Quartz Mountain on the Lakeview
Highway. As you drive over to
Lakeview today you would little
suspect that Quartz Pass was a
favorite picnic area and efforts
were made to. buy the spot for pub

"They can go to the Devil, it's

NEW YORK '1 The victory
The United States and its Allies
are keeping Iranian oil out of the
nanus of the Russians.
The price: The headache of try
ing to ease a new flow of oil
into a world stream already dis
tending Its banks. Where will the
oil be sold? Will It lower prices
at the corner service station?
The dangers: 1. Arousing the
resentment of Iran's Middle East
neighbors, who may lose some
of their own oil revenues in mak
ing room for Iran's oil; 3. Drawing
down the Ire of American Inde
pendent oil companies whose out
put already is cut back because
of the over-supply of oil; and 3.
Encouraging other countries to
follow Iran's nationalization tac
tics. American oilmen think they can
work out a way. to pay the price
painlessly and to avoid the dangers
by taking It slow and easy.
They contend that little Iranian
oil will come to American shores
domestic producers would clam
or too loud If it did. Prices here
would be affected little unless the
world price structure cracked un
der the strain.
When Iran closed down Its English-owned
oil industry three
years ago, the world's oil supply
was tight. And Iran, with 650.000
barrels a day capacity, was fur
nishing six per cent of the total out
put of the non-Communist world.
Since then Its neighbors. Kuwait.
Iraq and Saudi Arabia, have
stepped uo their output to more
than make up the difference. They
are producing at a rate of V;t mil
lion barrels a day.
World demand has increased by
one-fourth in the three years. But
capacity to produce oil has In
creased even more. Production has
hsd to be cut back. There's no
real need for Iran's oil now in
the non Communist world. But
Russia could use it.
Russia and Its satellites have
Increased their oil output by 36 per
cent since pre-World War II days.
But in the same IS years the Uni
ted States alone has doubled its
oil output, snd is estimated to have
seven times the productive capa
city of the Soviets.
In wartime that would be all im
portant, Russia's oil lack Is con
sidered one of the best Insurances
against Its starting World War III
at this time.
The American, English, French
and Dutch oil companies that have
banded together to peddle Iran's
oil and oil products hope that the
steadily rising world oil demand
will ease their task.
Demand is growing faster this
year In other lands than in the
United States, although this is still
the major oil product user.
Europe has built many refineries
since the war and gets most of Its
oil from Iran's Middle East neigh
borsbetter than l!j million bar
rels a day.
Working slowly, the companies
don't know his name.
T'is the one and the same?

HILL CITY, S.D. ifi How can
a middle-aged woman who has lost
her husband and reared ner cnua
ren adjust to a world that sud-
rfnlv xeema emntv?
That was the problem that
faced Mrs. Arthur Wermuth, moth
er of MaJ. Art wermutn, me i
mnu "one-man army of Bataan."
She found the answer by turn
ing her back on the busy social
Ufa of Chicago and settling down
in a cabin In this old small (pop.
less than 600) mining town in me
Black Hills. She lives alone wi'.n
her a-year-old Dalmatian watch
dog, "Sissy", and says she has
found here a new peace and pur
pose in life.
'Ever since I came nere. aiic
said, "I have loved these hills so
much that I could kiss tne grounu
for the happiness they brought
sitting: in the living room of her
loa- home. Mrs. Wermuth, a viva
cious, dark-eyed woman whose age
is still her own secret, torn uie
story of her life.
"When I was In the third year
in high sschool I had my appendix
out," she recslled. "The surgeon
had a son, who was also a doctor
and helped him.
T started hollering for Uie
young doctor, and wouldn't let the
old man take care of me. Before
I left the hospital the son and I
were engaged.
"I guess he fell in love with my
insides." said Mrs. Wermuth,
laughing, then added quietly:
"But for more than 24 years no
woman ever had a finer husband.
He was a good man."
The young doctor became' a fa
mous overworked surgeon. In 1925
his wife talked him into coming
to the Black Hills on a fishing
trip, and each year after that they
returned. .
"In Chicago he belonged to the
people, and the city finally killed
him," she said. "But out here he
belonged only to me and here we
found peace together."
Widowed shortly before the war,
Mrs. Wermuth spent nine years
traveling about the country with
her daughter, Talia, who had be
come a professional dancer. They
were tiring, anxious years.
Her son had won fame by killing
more than 100 Japanese single
handed in patrol actions on Bataan
before being taken prisoner.
"For more than 3','a years 1
worried every night that they
would kill him In prison camp,"
sne said.
After the war she settled here
with her daughter, who Is married
to a businessman in nearby Custer.
Her son is now In the Insurance
business in Denver.
"To this day we have never
talked about the war," she re
marked. "Some day, mother, I'll
tell you about It,' he said, and
some day, when he is ready, he
will tell me. But It is over, and
now he doesn't want even to hear
about It.
"So far he hasn't even looked
at the scrapbook I collected about
his heroism, but some time he will.
I also still have the gavel used
In the House of Representatives
to declare war on Italy and Ger
many. It was given to me by Rep.
Sam Ray burn of Texas. He said
the gavel used to declare war on
Japan had been stolen."
The shelves of her four-room
cabin are crowded with souvenirs
of her travels, nie shelf above
the fireplace holds the bronzed
first baby shoes of her two child
renand the skull of a gorilla,
given to her in Seattle.
Mrs. Wermuth now is a familiar
figure In the Black Hills, and held
in high affection for her acts of
kindness. Even the crustiest old
prospector waves as she wheels
by on a trout fishing trip.
"No, I don't miss the city social
