is no validity in the argument that

owns too great a percentage of the

ing persons and studying conditions
in the Troy area. His report was
not favorable to the Forest Services
Management Plan.
To return to the Agreement with
the Neils Company we find a much

Of the other three cases and we
find a great difference in the per
centage of company owned and gov

age we find the Neils Lumber Com
Danv own 10000 acres or l15
while the Forest Service owns l.
2l1,000 acres or 7796. The Forest
Service claim so said the speaker
that in order to get NeilS to operate
efficiently on their privately owned
ground the F. S. must enter into
this agreement. We feel the price
we pay is eXorbitant. We (the gov
ernment) puts in six times as much
as they, according to the chart
which was presented, and the Neils
company get rs million feet and all
others get million feet The Neils
company will get their quota with

at the end of go years the cut will
