TED'S SAW SHOP Riverview at Finì Vernonia, Oregon ■ Aid of Psychologists May Be Needed To Lick Man-Caused Fire Problem Psychologists may be enlisted to lick a vexing forest fire prob lem. say western forestry lead' rs. Nine out of every ten man- caused forest fires start within 100 yards of main travelled roads and highways. Cigarettes thrown out of moving cars by careless motorists, campfires left unat tended and uncontrolled debris burning are the major causes of blazes which take a toll of mil- 'ions of dollars annually of valu able young trees and timber. How to rtduce this carelessness stumps forestry experts who have used every known method of edu cation in recent years. Trae, points out W. D. Hagenstein, chief forester of Industrial For estry association, the number of man-caused forest conflagrations have been cut by two thirds since 1940 with the advent of the Keep Gr-.en program in 36 states of the -I I Before School Opens i I Your doctor will tell you that your child's eyesight should be carefully tested each y;ar be fore school opens!

"Th? crime,” says Hagenstein, “is that we should lose any tim ber from preventable fires.” There is where the psycholo gists come into the picture. "May be they can t 11 us how to reach the very small percentage of the public,” Hagensti in pointed out, “who still persist in careless and wanton acts. At least, it is worth a trial.” Maybe psychologists can in vent a it w dunce-cap technique to shame th: violator,” the Veter an forester suggested. “Those men who dial with human -motions and wi.h cause and effect of peo ple’s voluntary and involuntary acts, may conceivably b? able to find out what makes an uncon- scious arsonist out of a person with perfectly normal tiiden- cies.” Forest fire losses so far this y ar in Washington and Oregon are well below normal. Hagen- etein reported, but he cautioned that we are just getting into our worst fire weath-r and h.' urged citizens to be extra careful with fire. ■ H 1 M BEN’S BARBER SHOP Expert To’^sorial Work Vernonia, Oregon H M H H PUBLIC OTICE ft . 1 U J j ORE. having 60 days or more of active service entirely within the U.
