Jr. SALEM Wi If either Secretary (if State Mark Hatfield or state Treasurer Sig Unander is elected governor of Oregon, it could cre ate a legal problem. The problem is: Who would appoint the successor? The law says that when either office is vacant, the governor names the successor. Let's suppose that Hatfield is elected governor to succeed Gov. Robert 1). Holmes. This same problem would exist if Unander were elected. Would Hatfield have to resign before he took the oath as gover nor? If he would, then Holmes . FORESTRY QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS '-. Q. What is sustained yield A. A system of forest control whereby the amount of timber removed each year is equal to, but not over, the amount grown each year. This system assures a continuing source of wood. The permissible amount to he cut known as the annual allowable cut, can be increased by follow ing practices which increase the growth rale. Examples of this are planting of poorly stocked fireas to get more acres in pro duction, thinning of overcrowded stands to increase the growth on each acre, use of fertilizers to aid growth. Q. Will we run out of timber in the future? A. Not necessarily. Most recent Information indicates that there is enough timber producing potential to meet our future needs. How ever, it is essential that forestry practices and techniques be great ly improved during the next few vears in order to meet the needs. Many thousands of acres of for est land are not doing, their part today. O. Are nonderosa pine for yel low pine) and bull pine two dif ferent kinds ot tree; A. Both are ninus ponderosa Bull pine is young ponderosa with characteristic dark mac Darn and many limbs. As the tree ma tures ( into ponderosa pincl the ,,hark lightens in color and forms nlales. Ihe lower limbs die and drop off leaving a smooth, clear ttem. There is a real oinerence in the value of Ihe two types of tree, however. The small, lim by "bull pine" is of relatively low value for lumber while the clear yellow pine is a premium value tree. Maloney. 39.

At the Air Materiel Command depot at Tinker, the 8-engine glo bal range bomber will be put through complete inspection and overhaul. The Boeing-built 200-ton bomber, based at Loring AFB, Maine, was B miles above Montreal on a stm ulated bombing run March 11 when multiple electrical system trouble developed. It was impos sible to lower the landing gear. But Maj. Ernest Norman, Man hattan Beach, Calif., and Capt. James R. Burnett, St. Paul, Minn, navigators, plotted an accurate course to the 12,000-foot long run way at 8th Air Force Headquar ters here. Compounding the difficulty of the unprecedented B52 "landing at tempt was the lact that the bomb er still had aboard 50.000 pounds of fuel and the airplane landing lights were out of commission. The 600 - mile - an - hour B52 touched down at more than 200 miles an hour, skidded 6,000 feet along the main concrete runway and jolted off one side into muddy ground. During the long, grinding slide, the magnesium surface of the air- plane s belly threw DacK a bril liant sheet of flame. Some equip ment on the bomber floor caught fire, but fire trucks quickly put out the flames. None of the men aboard was injured. A recovery team from the 90th Field Maintenance Squadron here borrowing a technique developed by the Royal Air Force, raised the scarred plane out ol the mua ny inserting huge flotation bags un der the swept-hack wings and pumping them full of air.

Powered by a Pratt and Whitney J-57-7 turbojet engine, this century series plane is capable of flying in excess of 1,000 miles at a speed faster than sound. Built by the North American Aircraft Corp., this aircraft will be on display at Kingsley Field on Armed Forces Day, Saturday, May 17.

If Hatfield could take the oath without having first resigned, then could he appoint his own successor after he took the oath? Statehouso lawyers have been tossing this question around for weeks. They wouldn't be sur prised if, should either Hatfield or Unander win the top office. Ihe matter ended up in the state Supreme Court. Sam Haley, legislative counsel, says he doesn't know the answer. No other-lawyer seems sure of It, either. One thine is sure, though. The successor would have to be Republican, because the law says that ail appointees to vacant ot uces must be of the same political party as the person who vacated the office. That means .the Republicans who now have a 2-1 majority on the Board of Control, are certain to keep control through 1959 and 1960. I In spite of the relatively warm political campaigns for governor, Congress and the Supreme Court, Freeman Holmcr, state election supervisor, doesn't look for a big vote in t riday s primary election He thinks IhaC despite a record primary election registration, few er than half of the registrants will cast their ballots. Of Ihe 829,270 registered voters Holmer thinks only about 400.000 will vole. The highest percentage of voters in Oregon's history turned out at the 1956 general election, when 84.9 per cent voted. The percentage in the 1956 pri- mury was 62 per cent. The per centage always is higher in presi dential years. At the primary four years ago. (he percentage was only 42.1. Sol Holmer s estimate of less than 50 per cent for Friday's election still would be better than that for the last comparable primary, four years ago. He estimates that the state and counties will spend $500,000 on the Legislature. Chos. J. Cizek TAILOR Suirt Mod To OrUer Porfoct Fit Guaranteed 119 SOUTH 7th election. That figures at $1.25 per voter. Holmer adds, however, it ii strange that this cost has re mained constant for the past several years. He is watching carefully to see how the new 1957 election laws will work out. Holmer was the guiding spirit behind that law, doing tlio research for it.

(Dil. il Hiutllio), Hulloii, CtiL Four Detroit Schoolboys Suffocate In RR Salt Car DETROIT UP Four schoolboys trying to ride a load of salt out the bottom of a railroad hopper car suffocated yesterday when they got stuck in the chute and buried in the avalanche. Would-be rescuers, called by the victims' two playmates, dug with their bare hands, garbage can covers and other makeshift tools in a desperate attempt to free the trapped youngsters. They were too late. Only one of the four was alive when freed and he died soon afterward. An engineer from a nearby switch engine had to be called to move the railroad car so the salt wouldn't pile hack into the hopper, hampering efforts to get the chil dren, loose. When the hopper was cleared. two of .the boys were found jammed in Ihe bottom with their arms and legs wrapped around each other. The head of one of them was sticking out the bottom of the hop per," said John Aloue. who helped recover the bodies. We tried to shovel the salt away from him but as fast as we moved it, more fell in. He groaned but never said a word." "We dug with our bare hands! .nd everything else we could lay our hands on," said Elton Hush lau. "I saw one leg and pulled on h it. The boy came out with his mouth and eyes filled with salt. I handed him to John Nolan who gave him artificial respiration until the police took him away. I pray to dod he lived. Patrolman Robert Smith and I Charles Steffcs said the two sur vivors told how they bad learned to operate the dumping mechan ism on the gondolas while playing around the train, parked at the rear of the International Salt Co. I The boys said they tripped thel levers and wntched while the salt poured out. That inspired them to try "riding the salt out of the car, they told police. Police identified the dead boys! as Norman Clallerbuck, 14: Ricky Contardi, 12; Jimmy Hoary, 13, and David Lachapcllc, 10, all of j Detroit. Ihe two who escaped were Danny Lawler and Robert I'isher, both 11 and also of De troit.
