Mar tin Jr. thinks another term in the While House may be Just what the President needs. Ke says it might be less of a strain than spending four years, on the Gettysburg farm. The Massachusetts lawmaker told newsmen he is advised thai the President will be "luliy re covered" from his heart attack. He said Mr. Eisenhower could win next year in a walk with no real campaign and "with no strain al all." "Three or lour television and radio programs and that would be it." Martin said. "There would be no strain al all." There has been general specula tion that Mr. Eisenhower, although making satisfactory recovery from his ailment, would take himself out of the race on the ground an other term would be too strenuous. He pointed out that as president Mr. Eisenhower will get the best of care and can take what pre cautions are necessary. On bis own as a farmer, he said, the Pres ident might well overdo. Martin was asked if he had any direct lntormation from Denver to support his optimism about the President's health. "Yes," he re plied. "They tell me, he's going to be well fully recovered."

Inventory System Boosts Klamath Timber Production PORTLAND The planned an nual timber cut on some 480,000 acres of Klamalh Indian Reserva tion lands is approximately 30 per cent greater today as a result of a tree-growth Inventory system de veloped by Earl R. Wilcox, forest manager for the Klamalh Reser vation. Forester Wilcox described his technique in detail at the 55lh an nual convention of the Society of American Foresters meeting in Portland this week featuring the program theme "Converting the Old Growth Forest." More than 1.000 professional foresters from all over the United Slates are here to discuss latest developments in professional forestry, "This greater annual cut repre sents an Increase of several hun dred thousand dollars in the an nual stumpage payments to be de rived by the Klamath Indian peo ple from current timber sales." said Wilcox, "It also represents nn increase of approximately 15 million board, feet of saw timber which will be made available each year to the lumber industry .in the vicinity of the Klamath Res ervation. Further, the allowable annual cut has been planned with great er assurance than would have been possible had the predictions oi growth been based on data which is generally applicable throughout a relatively large forest region," he said. The key to Wilcox' simplified system is a simplified growth measuring scale which can be used in the woods and by which potential growth of a forest stand can be measured quickly without the time-consuming Job required to assemble, correlate and inter pret data In older statistical meth ods. Cutting In the 590.000 acres of tribally owned merchantable tim ber started on a large scale In 1916. The first cutting cycle is planned for completion in 1963. Average volumes per acre in the reserve stand have increased from 5.600 board feet an acre in 1946 to 6,500 board feet In 1953.
