[era Re The Nevada County Nugget October 23, 1968 Rt.1,Bx 5731S Grass Valley Le Ph, 273-8954 The past ten days have been more than busy for me as I had to attend a Grange convention in Fresno with my husband who is a Pomona Master, and I as his wife was a voting delegate, so had to be present. Then came our own regional meeting for Golden State Mobilehome Owners League, which was held in the beautiful recreation hall at Stonegate Mobile Vil lage. Our president % Norman ‘A, Lundstrom was present with his wife Adamarie, from Camp bell, Calif., Regional Director of Region #1 Bill Petherbridge and wife Elaine, from Sunnyvale, Director of Region #2 Ernest Glover and wife Irene from Se bastopol, Associate Directors bring out the differences between our policy and those from other companies. Our president, Mr. Lundstrom, in his speech warned us of the. many dangers to our way of living that were coming up even now and would be much worse this next year as taxes continue to rise everywhere and the people that are supposed to protect our rights, and those of all that have elected them to office, instead of protecting us are only interested in protecting themselves by going along with the Establishment. There were approximately 165 people present, and I was very pleased. when many.came up afterward and said that the meeting had been so interesting, they were so sorry that it had not Herbert Berry from Magala and his wife; Flint Yarrington and . continued for another hour orso.

The trouble began in December of 1966, and since that time CDF has been involved in many inspections of the property and has served notices to the land owner and timber operator concerning the rules violations, Dorris, the land owner, re quested a hearing before the State Board of Forestry. However, Forkner did not ask for the hearing, as provided for in Forest practice rules were drafted in 1945 when the State Legislature recognized the necessity for good forest prac~ tices in harvesting forest resources, They determined such rules were necessary to conserve and maintain the productivity of the timberland for best economic interests and for continuance of the forest industry. It was decided that the industry itself could best determine action to be taken in order that land be left in a productive condition after logging. § Chamber tidbits & Because our Nevada City foli.
