PLENTY OF TREES WERE SAVED by the efforts of Russell
Rocck Jr., who won the Billboard trophy for bagging the most
porcupines this summer, when he colleccted a total of 428 of
the woodland creaiures. This pile represents about 60 of the
soiny animals piled up in the woods near where the 13-year-
old was hunting in the King Cole area. Porcupines do untold
damage in the Klamath Basin area by girdling young fir and
pine trees, either killing or maiming the trees so badly as to
render them unfit for timber use.

second time. She is charged with
first degree murder in the death
of Diane Hank, a Portland high
school girl.
In the tirst trial boih she and
her husband. Wayne Fong. were
convicted. But Circuit Jud!?e Alfred
p. Dobson set aside the vet diet
on grounds that the jury had not
given the case adequate consider'
ation.
A new trial was ordered and
their attorney asked that the two
be tried separately. Wayne Fong
is to stand trial later.

WASHINGTON Oft Richard E.
McArdlc, chief of th Forest Serv
ice, says a recently completed
survey points up the "tremendous
challenge" of growing enough
timber te supply future genera
tions of Americans.
The exhaustive study, which
cost million dollars and re
quired three years of work, was
made by federal, and state for
esters, forest Industries and public
ana private organisations.
It predicts the nation's timber
requirements wi'.l be so high by
the end of the century that growth
will have to be increased from 19
to 120 per cent to keep up with
mem.
"Whether there is time enough
to gear tip to levels of future de
mand. . . and still meet increas
ing needs In the meantime, ' Me
Ardle said, "Is a pretty debatable
question.
"If we accept the assumption
that the population of the United
States is going to keep on increas
ing at a rapid rate, and if we ac
cept the estimates of potential tim
ber demand at all seriously, it is
going to require an intensification
of forestry effort above and be
yond what most of us have vis
ualised.. . . We face a tremend
ous challenge if we are to grow
enough timber so that our chiloren
may enjoy the timber abundance
that we ourselves have known."
Earlier surveys concluded, there
was ample forest land to grow
needed timber crops In the United
States If the land were used ef
fectively. The latest study indl
cated this may no longer be true
"The .long-lime trend in the na.
tion's forest land has been dis
tinctly- downward as land has been
cleared for agriculture, as hiih-
wsys have been built, and as towns
have .sprung up and urban areas
expanded," the report said.
There has been no areat net
change In the area of forest land
in recent decades despite a small
net increase since 149. In all
probability the lone-term down.
ward trend will continue due to
expected increases in population,
runner urbanisation, continued
highway and power developmental stock.. Estimates for the Southern

issimo Francisco Franco's cab!.
het Friday night authorised the
finance minister to Increase from
30 million dollars in SI mllllnn
dollars the loan granted Spain
last April by the U.S. Export-1
import jmt. '
'Considering both this trend in
land use and the estimates of po
tential future demand. It is no
longer a clear-cut conclusion that
there is ample forest land. On the
contrary, further significant reduc
tions in the acresge of land de
voted to growing trees should in
general be avoided or should be
made with full realisation that
such withdrawals may adversely
affect future timber supplies."
The report said about one-tourth
of the nation's commercial forest
land is poorly stocked or not plant
ed at all, timber quality is de
clining, one-fourth of the timber
cut is not ullllzea and insects and
disease are taking an extraordi
nary toll.
The worst forest conditions, the
report declared, are found on
small farm and other private
ownerships, especially in the
South.
On the favorable side, the sur
vey found mcreasing timber
growth In recent years. Sawlim
ber growth In 1952 was per cent
greater than in 1944.
The report said improved re
stocking of cutover areas and con
trol of insects and disease offer
the best possibilities of increas
ing timber supplies.
The survey pointed out that
three-fourths of the forest land is
in the East but two-thirds of the
sawtimbcr volume is In ihe West.
About half of the nation's sawtinv
ber stands in Oregon, California
and Washington.
The Pacific Northwest Douglas
fir region has an estimated 695
billion board feet of sawtimber
and 113 billion cubic feet of grow
ing stock. The Pacific Northwest
pine region has an estimated 154
billion board feel of sawtimber
and 33 billion cubic feet of grow
ing stock. '
Estimates for California are 360
billion board feet of sawtimber
and 67 billion cubic teet of grow.
ing stock.
The Northern Rocky Mountain
region has an estimated 161 bil
lion board feet of sawtimber and
43 billion cubic feet of growing
