KRAMER PORTLAND, Ore., June 12 OPi The perennial salmon vs. dams argument in the Pacific Northwest is nearly over so far as the Interior Department is concerned. The department's officials in their revised plan Xor dam con struction in the Northwest an nounced that: 1. If dams do not "kill" fish runs, they at least imDair them, even with full use of fish ladders and all protective devices. 2. The fishing Industry "should not be allowed indefinitely to block the lull development of the other resources of the river." As a result their revised plan one that is up for discussion by fishing, agriculture and power in terests of the Northwest at Wal la Walla, June 25 proposes a 10-20 vear lease on life for the Columbia River salmon, while ex perts attempt to establish salmon runs downstream., men the big dams will go in . Some in the fishing industry say this is the death knell for the big Chinook and Silverside runs in the Columbia. Interior Department officials take the view that this unhappy result may be inescapable and that "the government's effort should be directed toward amelio rating the imnact of this devel opment upon the injured interests and not toward a vain attempt to noiu stui tne nanus oi tne ciock. Fish Values "Outweighed" What this entails was told In the department's conclusions as summarized by Col. Theron D. Weaver, North Pacific Division Army engineer and chairman of the Columbia Basin Inter-Agency committee In invitin interested groups to the Walla Walla meet ing. The annual wholesale value of river-caucht salmon ranges from 6 to 10 million dollars," the sum mary said. "Capitalized value of the resource may be said to be 125 million dollars. "Some five Indian tribes will be dispossessed of fishing sites reserved to them under treaty. An arbitrary capitalized value of 15 to 20 million dollars might be placed on these rights. An arbitrary capitalized value of 20 million dollars might be as signed to the sport fishing of salmon on the river . . . 'If (the fisheries) were to be preserved at any cost, eiwht po tential proiects on the Columbia and five on the Snake would have to be abandoned. The costs would lie about 5,000.000 kw of low-cost power capacity (HO per cent on the Columbia), the ac ceptance of only shallow-draft navigation above Iho Dalles and none on the Snake, and the ulti mate sacrifice of about 1,000,000 acres of irrigation. It is dillicult precisely to equate these poten tial benefits against the value of the present Columbia River sal mon, but all concerned within the department are agreed that they are the foundation of the ul timate development of the Pa cific Northwest and that they considerably outweigh the result ing cost to the commercial fish eries, the Indians and the sports men." Alternate Plan Offered The department next outlined its plan for transplanting the salmon to lower river and coastal streams. The Fish and Wildlife Service said five steps could be taken: (1) removal of obstruc tions: (2) abatement of pollu tion; (3) construction of fish ways an screening of all diversions; (4) actual transplanting of u rlver fish, mid (5) extension of artificial propagation. Army engineers are not In full accord with the department's plan, for they maintain they can uuiid dams witnout curtailing fish runs. As an example they cite the record Chinook run over Bonneville dam this spring. Fishermen remain skeptical of all these assertions, and now are totaling up figures in prepara tion for their biggest and per haps most Important argument In the lish vs. dams controversy. workable" and will not stop a coal strike. This was learned today from officials who have seen the analy sis but who asked that their names not be used. There have been equally reli able reports, however, that some other presidential advisers are urging Mr. Truman to sign the measure. This group is said to contend (A) that the bill does give the government some means of deal ing with the threat of a new coal strike next month and B) that Congress is virtually certain to enact it into law in any event. The labor experts are reported to have concluded, among other things, that the measure await ing Mr. Truman's decision fol lows more nearly the original version introduced by Rep. Hart ley than what they called the less restrictive measure spon sored by Senator Taft. County Farm Appraisers Authorized by Budgeteers (Continued rrom Page 1) $215,530,353 appropriation for the Interior Dopartment, adding $54, 116,840 to the amount voted by the house. Principal increases are $36, 837,932 for he reclamation bu reau and $9,314,600 for the Bon neville power administration. The appropriation for nation al park operation was increased by the committee from $3,350,000 to -$3,587,000. The amount would include an addition of $63,400, or a total of $260,000, for recreation al areas. For the fish and wild life ser vice the committee recommended an increase of $480,440. to $(!, 110,320, including $790,040 in stead of $725,000 for investiga tions of food fisheries and $280, 700 instead of $200,000 for com mercial fisheries. The biological investigations of this agency were allowed $280,000 instead of $241,000 and the predatory ani mal control work $900,000 instead of $750,000.

Fees Are Reduced Downward revisions of the $1, 301,055.35 budget included trim ming in several departments. Fees for the four constables in Douglas County were cut out, due to a new state law which places' constables on an appointive basis. In the absence of a legal opin ion, the budget committee decided to eliminate the fees allowed for the serving of civil papers and to assign the duties to the sheriff's office. ' The new law Senate Bill 383 which places all constables on an appointive basis, excepting those receiving a stated salary, also limits the number of justice courts in each county to six. As there are now seven in Douglas County, Judge Busenbark said that the Justice courts at oaro Iner and Reedsnort would prob ably be combined. The new law also gives justices of the peace a fixed salary their average mommy lees col lected during the first six months of 1947, plus 20 per ont. Salaries will be paid ettective August l. This has resulted in an increase in the county's justice court bud get. The revised budget figures were given by the Budget: Com mittee to County Clerk Roy Agee, who will prepare the budget for publication. . Ousted Hungarian Premier, on Way to U. S.

Foreign Policy intact His bipartisan program on for eign policy remains generally in tact despite some cracks in its structure. That also may face a test If t ho president is persuaded later that a Kuroiiean rennnintn- Hon program requires the atten tion of a special session before Congress meets regularly again In January.

Democratic leaders ; generally expect a veto message I on it Monday, although some of j them say there is a possibility j the president may let it become ! law. The deadline for a veto mcs ! sage is Monday midnight. Senator Taft of Ohio, chair I man of the Senate GOP policy committee, told a reporter there Is "almost no chance" that Can 1 gress would override a tax veto. That would mean continuation of present levies at least until early next year. Labor Bill Questioned Whether the president signs it or not, the labor bill appears likely to become law. There is a clear margin for overriding a veto In the House, and Demo cratic strategists privately ells pair of mustering the required one third plus one vote to sus tain in the Senate. Government labor experts who have been analyzing the Taft Hartley bill will advise President Truman that the measure is "un- basis of a decision made last Tuesday by an arbitration board. The Missouri legislature re cently enacted a bill which pro hibits strikes against public utili ties and authorizes the governor to seize and operate utilities in cases of actual or threatened strikes.
