Theft and vandalism losses among western Washington private forestland owners and logging operators increased more than sixfold from 1968 to 1974, according to a survey by the Washington Forest Protection Association. Robert P. Matthews, WFPA director of forest protection, said the total loss from stolen timber and equipment plus vandalism damage rose from an estimated $1 million in 1968 to about $6.7 million in 1974. ive isl an By CARMEN YATES Harstine Island residents joined the family in paying their last respects and to bid a fond adieu to a native son of the island this past Monday at a memorial service held at the Batstone Funeral Home. Alvin Anderson, in the short 60 years since he was born here on the island, had become a legend in his own time and perhaps even a bit of an island institution. Alvin was one of four children born to Emil and Sofia Anderson. He had three sisters, Elizabeth and Helen and the late Inga. He also had one stepbrother, Carl Mattus. Thirty-five years ago Alvin married Phyllis (Peggy) Scott and their first child was born dead in 1941. He was buried at the Harstine Cemetery. Basically, Alvin made his living as a self-employed logger. In late 1960 Alvin and Peggy f'ded their first plat known as Island Shores, the second major development here on the island. (Three years earlier Harry Craft had begun the island's first development at the Hole-in-the-Wall). With Alvin's project, islanders were learning the meaning of a new term that was to spring up all over this area. In 1961 Peggy and Alvin celebrated the birth of their second child, also a son, whom they named Mark. In the mid:sixties the Andersons purchased a home in Santa Barbara, California 'where they spent the winter months and where Mark also attended school. Just last year the family purchased an apartment in Honolulu, Hawaii, where Mark attended school. Besides being somewhat of a "land baron" here on the island, Alvin had a green thumb, Flowers simply responded to Alvin's touch, much the same as a magic wand in the hands of a fairy. In these past few days since his death August 22, a large number of residents who have moved here in the past few years have remarked, "I never met Alvin, but I sure felt I almost knew him, from all I've heard about him over the years." Following the memorial service in Shelton Monday there was a brief graveside service at the Harstine Cemetery where he was laid to rest next to his first son. A little over a week ago Andy Glaser and his wife Charlie arrived here with a truck and trailer laden with their possessions. Prior to their arrival, a huge new mobile home had been set in place, marking the establishment of their new home-to.be later this year. The couple will return to California later this week for a Burg ary Vandalism Intruder Accounting for about 45 percent of the total 1974 losses were thefts of cedar trees and products, the survey showed. "It appears the value of cedar products has increased sufficiently to motivate thieves to unprecedented levels of activity," Matthews said. Lost profits from operational interruptions due to theft or vandalism of needed equipment accounted for 31 percent of the 1974 loss. Other portions of last year's total were: stolen Call: Lou Nelson 3M Factory Distributor for information and free demonstration er O les short time. However, the next time they arrive on the island, Charlie and Andy will be permanent island residents. One Harstine family practically moved their whole farm up to the Mason County Fair recently. The Bob Ireland family arrived on Thursday evening preceding the opening of the annual event with goats, pigs and calves. The next day they moved a trailer in for their own accommodations for three days. Much to their delight they discovered their pigs had won top honors - a purple ribbon. Lee and Mary Campbell, accompanied by their daughter Polly and a friend, spent a week and a half initiating their new boat and themselves on a boating vacation to the Canadian San Juans. During the 10-12 days they experienced a little bit of everything: good weather, bad weather, fog and even some mechanical problems. to spea at c Evangdist Esther Palmer will be speaking at the Kamllche Valley Assembly of God Church nightly except Monday and Saturday from September 2 to September 14. The programs will begin at 7 p.m. She will also be the speaker for the American Indian Fellowship meeting at 1 p.m. September 13 at the church. She will present special music on the accordion, clarinet, piano and organ during the programs. Reverend Edward C. Maser, pastor of the church, says the public is welcome to attend any of the services. Take it The way to have power is to take it. William Marcy O O II1 equipment, 12 percent; vandalism, 1 1 percent; and damage to recreational facilities, one percent. Besides the increased incentive to steal cedar, Matthews attributed the apparent upward trend in theft and vandalism to the vulnerability of "open gate policies" among landowners, inadequacies in the criminal justice system in dealing with offenders, and the lack of coordinated effort among forestland owners and operators About the middle of the month Darlene Klab and her two little girls came from Renton to visit her morn, Dossie McClain, who resides in Sewardville here on the island. Darlene brought her own lawn mower, with one good Samaritan act in mind: to mow the cemetery, which she did, making it look so very neat. Prior to a weekend camping trip at Millersylvania Park with other members of the family, Darlene helped her room can a winter supply of apricots. August 15 five island gals took Lila Peugh to Hood Canal to celebrate her birthday. Enroute home all stopped at Helen Lammers' for cake and ice cream. And last, but most certainly not least, the Harstine Community Club will be hosting the 1975 Labor Day Dance this coming Saturday evening. The live music will be provided by the "Triangles." Esther Palmer to control the problem. Matthews noted the average bid for cedar sold by the State Department of Natural Resources rose from about $24 per thousand board feet in 1968 to about $112 in 1974 - an increase of 366 percent. "This increase in value has made it highly profitable for thieves to concentrate on removal of this species with some very sophisticated methods in order to avoid detection and apprehension," he said. The thievery often is conducted in the dark of night, with radio-equipped watchmen stationed at strategic locations. A fairly recent innovation is the use of a helicopter to lift the illegally processed cedar shake "bolts" to a roadside for transport, Matthews said. It isn't known how many of the estimated 300 small shake mill operations on the Olympia Peninsula are aware of the source of their raw material, he said. "Legitimate mill operators are desperately concerned about their continued ability to compete in the market with processors of 'free' raw material," Matthews said. Typically, processors of stolen cedar work on a "cash and carry" basis where no record of the transaction is kept. Nearly two-thirds of the survey respondents said the overall theft and vandalism problem is increasing, 36 percent considered it static, and only two percent said it is decreasing. The culprits most often singled out were local residents (30 percent of losses); organized thieves (19 percent); recreational vehicle operators (18 percent); and hunters (14 percent). Matthews said solutions to the problem might include better patrols of the more vulnerable areas, improved law enforcement, and other programs. The public also can help by reporting suspicious activities to the landowner or local law enforcement agency, he said.
