HAMBER OMMENTS by GEORGE T. CALLISON Manager KLAMATH COUNTY CHAMBER 0 COMMERCE The significance of the forest products industry to the state of Oregon and the course which lies ahead for the various segments of the industry were ably set forth last week at an all-day economic seminar held in Eu gene. The seminar, on the topic, "Where Is Oregon Going In The Wood Products Industry?" was sponsored by the International As sociation of Personnel in Em ployment Security, the Universi- Dement of Employment and th,c,s is "a sIi men in the forest products indus try as well as representatives of the sponsoring agencies. Professor Richard C. Smith of the University of Missouri point. ed out that 53 per cent of all industrial employment in the state of Oregon is in the forest products industry, an industry' which he said is undergoing rap-j id, sometimes painful adjust ments.

MILLER Company 7th & Klamoth Ph. 4-4154 Professor Smith said, with the great losses in sawmills and plan ing mills being pretty well offset by marked increases in plywood paper and allied products employ ment. The expansion in the production of plywood and in paper and al lied products in Oregon in recent vears is nothing short of startling The number of plywood plants in Oregon has increased 700 per cent in the last 15 years. At the same time, plywood production has shot up 1,100 per cent! Oregon first paper mill, which opened in 1807 in Oregon City, produced three-quarters of a ton a day. The state's several mills now produce over three thousand tons a day The future for both plywood and paper products in Oregon are e.- cellent, according to industry spokesmen. R. H. Noycs Jr., gen eral sales manager for Boise-Cascade Corporation, told his seminar audience that Oregon "has a tre mendous future in this expanding industry, but that expansion the industry is not likely until the 1970s when consumption of paper products will have risen enough! to create a significant new de- mand. Arthur H. Jones, director of; Market Research and Economics! for the Douglas Fir Pywnod As sociation, displayed a healthy op timism over the future for ply wood, based on the industry's intent to constantly adapt their product to the needs of the market. What about the lumber indus try? Paul F. Ehinger of the Ed ward Hines Lumber Company was emphatic in his statement that "the lumber industry is not dying, it is just changing." fortunately with a lale start. Again stressing the need for adapting tn the requirements of the market piace, tninger icit tnerc w a si good reason for oplimism in look ing to the future. With the dollar value of wood products industry in Klamath County something in excess of wo million annually, it is good to hear such a firm note of opti mism struck by men in the dustry who know what they are talking about. m - - ""5Li3J' - JS2rS--i,-f I fit ' ' A YEAR IN OFFICE Members and officers of (he newly organized auxiliary fo the Klamath Basin Sheep Producers Association, have decided on Klamath Basin Bell-Ewes as a name for the group.

HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon Sunday, May 5, 13 Tanker Crashes Bomber In Mid-Air ASHTON, Idaho UPI -Anj aerial search started at dawn Sat urday for an Air Force B-47 bomb er lost Friday night in a collision with a tanker over the wild and rugged Idaho-Wyoming border. The Air Force at Mountain Home AFB, Idaho, said the bomb er apparently went down about 20 miles northeast of here.
