'in January. But only a minor part
of the increase was for grants to
this state's own needy aged. Al-
most two thirds of the $590,583
increase for the one month period
went to "general assistance" for
which $1,433,121.83 was obligated
in February. General assistance is
the relief category which provides
permanent payments to residents
of one year and assistance to
down-and-outers with no qualifica-
tions, other than need, regardless
of residence.
Q
N the same month expenditures
for senior citizen grants increas-
ed only 1.5 per cent, with 971
new cases drawing grants slightly
below the January average. Half
of the remainder of the increase
went to added costs for "health
care," for which four fifths of a
million dollars was spent. Flag-
rant abuse of the program was
given as the reason for the recent
resignation of the Pierce County
hospital director after 25 years of
service. Quitting in disgust, he cit-
ed the case of a woman demand-
ing, and getting, more than $10
in ambulance anti taxi transporta-
tion plus medical fees and drug
expense for a simple throat In-
flammation, "something for which
you and I would have gone o the
corner dnlg store to get a bottle
of cough syrup." But, he pointed
out, "the hospital has no choice
(under 172) but to accept these
LU
and similar cas;."

SHELTON-MASON COUNTY JOURNAI
BOYS LEARN FACTS ON TREES
AT MONTHLY FORESTRY CAMP
Eleven Grays I-Iarbor and Ms- the major phases of tile project
I
son county 4-H forestry members work.
i held their second monthly fores-
i try camp at the Panhandle 4-H
camp April 23 and 24. Bill Loon-
ey, forester for the South Olym-
pic Tree Farm and forestry pro-
ject leader for the camp, was
present to teach tile boys prin-
ciples of scientific tree farming.
A SURVEYING crew of 4-H
boys, led by Looney, nearly com-
pleted running the lines on the
30 acres of forest land owned by
the 4-H clubs. Two additional
crews began cruising the down
timber in two plots of the land.
Early in the two-day camp the
4-H boys planted a "dedication
forest" of 100 trees. This plot of!
trees will be staked off and used
for observation during succeeding
camps and will be remembered I
as the first planting made by 4-H!
groups of the two counties. Re-
ports were given by individuals
instructed to find markets for
various types of timber.
During the first camp in March
members learned to read maps,
surveying instruments, and sec-
tion posts and began the survey-
ing.
Plans for .the forestry project
are to establish the boundaries of
the property and estimate the
down and standing timber accord-
ing to kinds used. Down timber
and snags will be then reclaimed
and sold. Marketing wil be one of

SHELTON AIRPORT NEWS
by Kurt Mann
The high winds and terrible
storms of the past week end up-
set a number of plans for cross-
country trips, Several of the local
"birds" had intended flying east
of tim Cascades and others
planned trips south, but the
weather-man decreed otherwise.
Elgin Sharpe and Frank TraviS at-
tempted getting to Salem, Oregon,
but had to give up after reaching
Scapoose. So... perhaps t h t s
week end will be better.
* * *
Norris and Jackie Rau sold
their T-Craft this past week and
now own a Cessna I20, which is a
two-pierce all-metal side by side
plane. It will undoubtedly afford
them more flying pleasure than a
tandem.
Norman Castle, who was re-
cently approved by the Veterans
Administration for a course of
commercial flying, is quite the
eager beaver. Hardly a day passes
that he isn't out there trying to
get ill some flying time, and
should solo this week.
Tommy Wilkerson and his fam-
ily left Shelton this week for
Blakely Island where Tom has ac-
cepted a position as pilot for a
flying club. We understand he
will have charge of a Seabee and
an Aeronca Sedan. Sounds like
lhe perfect job for one wbo is as
fond of airplanes as Tommy. All
wish hijn good luck.
STANDING TIMBER will be
thinned later and tim thinnings
sold. Alder will be sold" to mills
sawing furniture stock. Areas
which are bare of evergreens or
made bare by harvesting trees will
be reforested.
Once the project is well under-
way a perpetual forest will be
maintained by selective logging
and reforestation, and at no one
time will all the trees be cut.
Boys will then be able to man-
age their farm woodk)ts with the
know-how of an educated fores-
ter.
From reports of the "timber
cruisgrs" at the week end camp,
the timber will be utilized for
peeler logs, saw logs, shake bolts,
shingle bolts, fence posts, piling,
telephone poles, ties, furniture
stock, stove wood and fibre board.
Tlere will be relatively no waste
from all timber harvested or re-
claimed.
Plans were made by boys to
plant a crop of Christmas trees
on their home woodlots. Grays
Harbor 4-H boys present for the
last camp were: Rex Valentine,
Montesano; Jerry Schellke, Gor-
don "' C0dy: Allen. Sexton, Don
Borden, Tally Hall and Dan Ho-
g'an, Elms. Mason county 4-H
members attending were Jerry
Richert, Gene Irwin, Bob Hunter,
Jim Hunter, Tom and Joe Buechel.
