Timber Extraction Studied

A guest in the Klamath Falls! id upon eng me for
area for the past few days has
been Muhammed Atiqullah. a mem
ber of the Pakistan Forest Service,
who is spending 10 months in the
United States, studying the mech
anical extraction of timber.
Atiqullah has been visiting var
ious Oregon districts of the U.S.
Forest Service since completing
six months' study at Oregon State
College. He came to the Klamath
District of the Rogue River Na
tinnal Forest Monday, and left for
Grants Pass and Siskiyou Nation

country is made possible by the

est service seven years ago, was
sent back to the same university
to attend forest college for two
years. He has worked mostly in
East Pakistan, the forests of which
present some problems not like
ly to be encountered in America
For example, these Asian forests
abound not only in deer, but also
in wild elephants and tigers as
well as snakes, which are frequent
ly cobras
Oregon can at least claim to
have a few rattlers, which are
dangerous enough but they're not
quite in a class with the cobra
"Have you ever heard of a per
son s surviving a cobra bite? At
iqullah was asked.
"No, I never heard of one," he
replied.
The tropical forests of Pakistan
originally contained many ever
green trees, but a gradual transi
tion to convert these forests to
large scale teak plantations was
begun in 1870, and is still under
way. Teak is a very hard and
easily worked wood, which is in
great demand in the Far East
Another exotic aspect of Pakis
tan's forests is that the bulk of
the work is done by elephant pow
er and manpower.
The Pakistan Forest Service now
has a few tractors, and Atiqullah
is the third forester from that
country to be trained in mechani
cal operations in the United states
He will be put in a supervisory po
sition upon his return home.
Other technical assistance trom
this country to Pakistan includes
sending U.S. foresters there. Chief
among these is George Spaur, for
mer Oregon State fprester, who
heads a small mission.
Atiqullah has seen various ma
chines in operation during his vis-
here and has also studied the
district's forestry inventory meth
ods, but a visit to Crater Lake un
doubtedly produced the strongest
impression on nun.
"We have nothing quite like that
in Pakistan." he said.
Darrel K. Frewing. local district
ranger, who has been Atiqullah's
host during his visit here, said that
the visitor would soon go to oth
er national forests in California and
then take a course in equipment
maintenance in San Francisco be
fore going on to Washington en
route home.

Absence Makes Heart Fond
Of Some Things Such As TV
By CHARLES MERCER
NEW YORK (AP) Absence
may not make the heart grow
fonder, but it does make you ap
preciate some things.
Returning home recently after
being almost two months in Eng
land, Scotland and France. I found
that among the things I appreci
ated was and don't smile my
television set.
Mind you, I don't appreciate
much in the way of programs ap
pearing on the set in this deadly
dull summer season. But I do ap
preciate the thorough and absorb
ing way the networks have been
reporting the news in these recent
days of crisis.
News from an American view
point is something an American
or at least this American misses
most in Europe. In the larger cit
ies, thank heaven, the Paris Trib
une or an air mail edition of the
New York Times usually is avail
able. But we always seemed to
be somewhere far back in the hills
when the hunger for news assailed
us.
There are some excellent news
papers published in Britain and
P'rance. The Manchester Guardi
an, to name one, penetrates to
the remotest hamlets. But there
are days when the Guardian fcejs
there s nothing of much signifi
cance to its readers happening in
America. The editors forgot that
two of the Guardian's readers in
cluded my wife and me.
The same situation confronts
news-hungry American tourists
who listen to BBC radio news.
When we were most interested in
hearing about the activities of an
American named Bernard Gold
fine. BBC radio seemed most in
terested in the fact that Queen
r.iutueui 11 was Kumg iu visu a
I A- D.;,;ru 1
know their readers interests, so
does BBC knows the interests of
its listeners except for my wife
and me.
Returning home and turning on
the television set at the height of
the Middle East crisis, I had a
news appreciation of something
I d forgotten. American television
when it tries is a great medi
um for keeping one informed,
with absorption, about this cock
eyed world.
The most cheering thing about
this medium of television in some
time was the way all three net
works shucked out "entertain
ment" programs left and right on
several occasions to focus on Unit
ed Nations sessions and other
places that are of vital concern to
everyone.
Travel is enlightening. But if
you stay home, television when
it tries can bring the world right
over your doorstep.

Now comes another who is un
happy and his series hasn't
even started. George Montgom
ery, veteran of many a gunfight,
signed to head the new hourlong
series, Cimarron City. But he in
dicated his displeasure.
'When we started out, I said I
didn't know what we were aiming
for with my character, he re
marked. "They told me it took a
few shows before things settled
down. But after five or six of
them, I still couldn't figure out
what direction 1 was supposed to
be going. I'm getting pretty fed
up."
George hung up his six-shooters
to join the MGM safari on "Re
turn to King Solomon's Mines."
When he finishes, he aims to have
little safari of his own. Plans to
take his ever-lovin' Dinah Shore
and their children for a camping
trip to Yosemitc.
After that, he may shoot it out
with the villains or the pro

HOLLYWOOD (AP) Four
years ago, Pat Boone and his wife
Shirley were living in a 24-room
apartment in Denton, Tex., while
he went to college. The rental
$o0 a month.
Today, the Boones and their
four daughters are renting a Bel
Air mansion which they have been
told cost $800,000 when it was built
in 1934. Complete with marble
halls and a tremendous swimming
pool, it has more rooms than they
can count. The place has been
used by many distinguished visi
tors, including Prince Rainier
when he was here courting Grace
Kelly.
No, our boy Pat hasn't gone
Hollywood, though he may be liv
ing like a prince. He still has his
white buckskin shoes on the
ground, but he's also enjoying
some ot tne lruils of his amaz
ing success.
Amazing is right. His record
sales have been fantastic, with
one release alter another going
over tne million mark. Starting
with Arthur Godfrey and now with
his own show, he has been a hit
on television.
Though only one of his pictures
had been in release, he was
named the No. 3 start at the hnx
office, behind Rock Hudson and
John Wayne, but ahead of Elvis
Presley and Frank Sinatra. He's
now making his third film, "Mar
di Gras."
Pat would like to settle out
here, but he can't as yet.
"ABC doesn't have the facilities
to do my show here," he ex
plained. "So we'll have to go back
to New York in the fall. But
they're building a new studio, and
we'll probably return in January
or so. My oldest daughter will be
starting school, and then it'll be
time to settle down in California."

HAPPY CAMP-Ronald L. Sova
decided not to push his luck any
further after a narrow escape July
28 at 7:10 p.m. and he has vowed
not to drive another logging truck.
A brake failure on the truck he
was driving down the Indian Creek
Road made it impossible to ne
gotiate the turn on the Davis Road
in Happy Camp.
Seven logs rolled off the trailer

Life is a bit simpler for Pat now
that he has finally graduated from
college.
"Shirley has been very patient
with me, and now I've got some
time to devote to the family, he
said. "The only trouble is that it
gets more difficult to take them
anywhere in public.
For instance, last Christmas he
tried to take two of his daughters
to see Santa Claus in 8 Hacken

Brand Men
To Meet At
Pringle Falls
The State Department of Agri
culture will sponsor its third an
nual Oregon Brand Inspector Con
ference at Pringle Falls from Au
gust 6-10. All department personnel
connected with its brand inspec
tion program will attend.
The "school" is divided into two
sessions so that brand inspection
services will be in operation
through the state while the meet
ing is being held. The first ses
sion opens Wednesday afternoon
and closes Friday noon; the sec
ond session ends Sunday noon. Be
tween sessions, the state livestock
advisory committee will be in ses
sion.
The program will feature discus
sions by department personnel on
brand inspection, livestock licens
ing and herd law, the disease con
trol and meat inspection programs,
estrays, road checks, brand re
cording and forms, livestock
weighing, evidence for court cases
and public relations.
These topics are in line with the
purpose of the conference to keep
personnel imormea ot new de
velopments in their field and to
promote uniformity and efficiency
in me various pnases of brand in
spection work.
Guy Woodworth, livestock offi
cer from Beaverton, heads the pro
gram committee for the conference.
Robert J. Steward, director of
agriculture, and M. E. Knicker

Post Office
Plans Survey
The Post Office Department,
now collecting more money for its
stamps, plans to see what it can
do about improving its services.
The department plans a nation
wide survey, which very probably
will include Klamath Falls, to determine:
1. Whether Its windows should
be open earlier or later than they
are now.
2. Whether there are enough
daily collections from corner mail
boxes.
The surveys are to be started
as soon as possible and are to
last 90 days, the department an
nounced today in Washington.
Postmaster General Arthur Sum
merfield also noted that the de
partment initiated some improve
ments at the same time postal
rates went up Friday. These in
cluded acceptance of small par
cels up to 16 ounces at low third
class rates (instead of the maxi
mum eight ounces previously ac
cepted) and the addition of phono
graph recordings, music and man
uscripts at book rates.
Another new law permits post
offices to forward mail with insuf
ficient postage and collect postage
due from the addressee. Previous
ly, underpaid mail frequently was
returned to the sender for addition
al postage rather than forwarded
as postage due.
