"(!IIAIIIMAN OF the Board of
Count V C mlmissioners P.ov Mit-
chell 'also feels 1hat the "emmtV
shouht take advant-tge of its re-
creational facilities in order to
help the c(mnty economically.
Mitchell said, "'Wc sholIld do
much more with our great re('r,,a-
tional polenlial. %Ve should advt:,r-
lisa this area throughout the
state. In my mind there is no ques-
IiorI lllat Mason cmmty is one of
the best if not. the "fleet recrea-
tional area in the entire state.'"
COMMISSIONER C. W. Streck-
enbach feels like Mitchell that tile
county should try to develop this
potential source of revenue.
Streckenbach was very much
concerned about the future of lo-
cal government if some new
sources of valuation are not found
to help support governmental ex-
penses. While both the county and
city have been faced with higher
operaling costs, their revenues
have been going down instead ot
up. This has caused both the city
and county to cut budgets in or-
der to keep out of the red next
year.
"With higher costs, more de-
mands for services provided by
government, we are going to be
in a tight squeeze for some time
unless new valuation is found t:o
absorb these coats," Streckenbach
added.
WITH THE LUMBER business
depending to a large extent on
factors which cannot be control-
led locally, it would seem that the
best hope for Mason county lies in
the development, of tourism to add
to its income.
The Simpson company payroll
means a great deal to Mason
county but there is no evidence
at the present time that they in-
tend to add to it. There is always
the possibility that a new Simp-
son product like Forestone could
hell) the general picture and the
insulating board plant has ideas
along this line but new products
often times fall flat even with the
most exhaustive studies and labor-
atory tests.
What the federal congress will
do in regard to interest rates on
building it still a question and tile
people of Mason county have lit-
tle influence in that area.
TIIE NEW TATE park at Lake
Cushman and tile continued de-
velopment of waterfront property
are healthy signs in regard to at-
tracting tourists to the county.
No one can tell at this time bow
national and even the internation-
al picture could change and ef-
fect the cmmty tremendously.
However at the present time it
looks like the promotion of the
connty's recreational facilities is
the best bet.
New Year's Eve Dance
The public is invited to attend
the potluck dinner and dance spon-
sored by the Agate Grange this
evening in the Grange hall. Danc-
ing will begin at 9 p.m. to the
music of Jim Olson's orchestra.
