~ RECORD REVEALS
OLSON VOTED NO
ator Culbert L. Olson's claim that it
was his EPIC b’oc in the legislature
that developed and enacted a revenue program that balanced the
state budget, was shot full of holes
jn a state wide radio ,address last
night by Arlin E. Stockburger, state
director of finamce.
“The record of what happened in
the state degislature in 1935 does not
support Senator Olson’s statement,”’
Stockburger said.
“On page 6 of the Governor’s budget message, under the head of ‘new
the governor listed the personal income tax as No. 1, increased bank
and corporation franchise tax as No.
Ill; tax on intoxicating liquors as
No. V., all of which were enacted.”

STUDY MADE BY
CUT-OVER LAND
BERKELEY, Oct. 27.—The tedious business of watching a forest
grow through the decades in order
to determine just how it can best be
utilized for posterity has been undertaken by the Division of Forestry
of the University of California College of Agriculture in Blodgett Forest, an expense of 2,600 acres of cut
off land, in the Sierra, 33 miles east
of Auburn.
The forest was deeded to the University “by the Michigan-California
Lumber Company in 1933, and was
named after John W. Blodgett, president of the company, who desired to
have the university make _ experiments there which would aid the
timbermen of the future in the most
efficient handling of forest resources. In the five year period the University has taken exhaustive measurements of tthe forest growth,
through which it is developing methods of estimating the quality of
standing timber.
The forest was practically all logged over between 1900 and 1920,
‘and a substantial second growth is
well on its way, giving the univérsity ‘ideal conditions for its study.
Some of this second growth is now
nearly 40 years old, and it is estimated that in another 40 years it
ean be dedicated to timbering purposes with the possibility not only
of productive timber output but of
definite conservation as well.
The forest originally contained an
excellent stand of Western Sierra
mixed conifers—ponderosa pine, sugar pine, Douglas fir, white fir, incense cedar. The young growth is repeating these types and in addition
the university is being given opportunity to study the establishment of
new forest growth in several hund& . ¥
