HAVE MOTORISTS' HABITS IMPROVED IN KEEPING
Plans Completed
For Summer Work
WITH INCREASE IN RATED DRIVING SPEED?
In 4 CCC Camps
(Forest Log)
The four summer CCC camps
under state administration are
now definitely on their summer
work programs. Of the four, only
one will be moved from its pres
ent location. The Mist camp is
being moved and will be known as
the Reeher camp which is located
one mile west of Westimber. This
camp will be of a permanent na
ture, being constructed entirely
of wood. It will also serve for a
winter camp during the coming
winter.
The Reeher camp and the For
est Service camp on the Nestucca
river will be the only CCC camps
adjacent to the Tillamook burn.
Two side camps will be establish
ed from the Reeher camp to work
on road betterment, trail main
tenance, telephone line construc
tion and fire-breaks in the burnt
area. A crew of 24 men have had
a side camp on the Reeher camp
location for the past two weeks.
This crew has been engaged in
clearing the land for the con
struction of the buildings. The
present Mist camp will be enroll
ed to full strength and moved to
the Reeher camp as soon as pos
sible.
A change in the CCC personnel
has been made at the Wendling
camp, the old company being mov
ed to Cimarron, Kansas. The Ore
gon junior company at Cape
Creek has moved to Wendling.
This camp will continue on its
projects from its present location.
Lookout towers and houses will
be built on Mt. Nebo, Table
Mountain, Castle Rock and Ward’s
Butte. The Nebo tower will be 80
feet in height and the other look
outs will be 66 feet in height. All
are to be built of wood which has
been treated with creosote. Mod
ern connectors will be used on
each joint throughout the entire
structure. All trails in the East
ern Lane County Fire Patrol As
sociation district will be cleared
out as soon as the weather per
mits.
Camp Boyington will continue
to work from its present location.
All railroad grades in and about
Saddle Mountain will be convert
ed into truck trails with small
connecting links being built to
connect up with tihe Coast High
way on the west side and the As
toria-Jewell Highway on the east
side.
The Hamlet-Elsie road will be
completed, making it possible to
avoid1 the long trip by way of
Astoria and Seaside to reach the
old burn around Hamlet. Tele
phone line projects from this
camp are rapidly being brought to
a close. Work is also being carried
on on the old California Barrel
company railroad grades which
will eventually be extended to
connect up with the Crosett and
Western grades on Big Creek.
The Boyington camp is composed
entirely of local woodsmen and
was recently enrolled to full
strength.
Camp Walker will continue
from its present location and will
work on the road project to
Dean’s Mountain and the Ash-Al
legany county road. Very good
progress has been made on this
road in the last six weeks, due to
the fact that the road is now
upon the ridge top and' also to
the good weather, enabling the
bulldozer to work the full two
shifts. A new project has recently
been added to the work program
of this camp. Approximately 300
man-days will be spent on the
Reedsport airport, providing the
proper lease can be obtained for
the use of this field by state and
Forest Service planes. The Walker
camp is a junior company com
posed mostly of men from the
Willamette valley.
The Coquille camp was aban
doned on April 21. the men going
to Sturgiss, South Dakota. It was
FRIDAY, MAY 25, 1934.
