lution sponsoring the govern
ment flood control projects on
lower Smith River. This work,
to be done under direction o the
U. S. Engineers, was originally
estimated to cost about 575,000
but increase in costs may bring
the total to around $100,000, ac
cording to engineer's estimates.
Several ranches on the lower
river will be aided by thin work,
including those owned by Carl
Dawson & Son, Peter Cowan &
Son, K. O. Bernhardt, W. A.
Pyritz, Harry Henderson and
Ronald Wiley.

be called on the project next
week Irom the district engineer's
office in Portland.
In connection with this work,
the assessed valuation of the
Port of Umpqua lor the entire
district was secured from the
county assessor, the figure reach
ing just a little less than $5,
000,000. This figure includes real
property, personal property and
utilities.

Eisler Hearing
On Extradition
Request Deferred
LONDON, May 24 UP) An
extradition hearing for fugitive
Communist Gcrhart Eisler was
postponed today until Friday at
the request of the United States.
Meanwhile, Home Secretary
Ede sent the U. S. requisition for
Eisler to the Bow Street Court
with "an order to proceed," a
home office source reported. The
informant declined to say wheth
er this meant Ede had decided
Eisler is not, as he claim-.!, a po
litical refugee.
Britain considers political ref
ugees exempt from extradition
under the Anglo-American
Treaty of 1870. Ede told the
House of Commons last week he
would halt extradition proceed
ings if he reached a conclusion
that Eisler was a genuine politi
cal refugee.
The Communist leader who
fled the United States while un
der sentence on two criminal con
victions was brought into Lon
don's Bow Street Court today for
a hearing on a U. S. request that
lie ue jeiurneu iu America.
But F. Graham Maw, British
lawyer representing the Ameri
can emhassy at the hearing, said
the United States needed more
time to prepare the case against
tlsler.
Maw suggested an eight-day
delay.
Eisler's attorney, Dudly Col-
lard, protested that the case
snouid oe neard immediately.
"It is Intolerable that Eisler
should be kept in a British prison
while the United States take
their leisurely preparation of
this case," he told Magistrate J.
F. Eastwood.
The magistrate compromised
on a three-day delay and refused
for the second time to set bail
for Eisler.

by Past President Charles Wil
liamson In a brief ceremony.
They were Leonard Langley, Ray

son, Don Castel, Tolly Tollef-
son and Harold Chitwood. Wil
liamson outlined briefly the alms
of Junior Chamber.
Wayne Crooch. head of a spe
cial policy committee, reported
the committee recommends that
all questions political, civic or
otherwise should be handled
through the Board of Directors
or the president's chair at regu
lar dinner meetings, nut not by
any "steering committee."
It was recommended that Board
of Directors' meetings hence
forth be called 'business meet
ings," so that all members would
feel free to attend the semi
monthly sessions at the Senior
Chamber meeting room. Former
ly, said Crooch, members felt
reluctant to attend as it was as
sumed the meeting was for the
Hoard of Directors only. A lur
ther recommendation was that
the Board henceforth study any
enterprise asking Jaycce endorse
ment. Guests Introduced were Carl
Turner, Dr. David Campbell, Roy
Abrnhamson, Jim lrennery and
Doug Moclson.

story of the Hanford Plant test
which he said showed lack of
sufficient security protection. He
said steps had been taken to cor
rect this.
Security Test Told
As detailed by Wilson, the story
was as follows:
Rear Adm. John E. Gingrich,
former national security officer
for the commission, suggested the
test.
A Hanford security officer iden
tified only as Schumann took two
bars of uranium from the plant
and put them in the security of
fice safe. The disappearance of
this material was not noted by
employes at Hanford for some
months.
IsotoDes result when an ele
ment such as nhosDhorous. io
dine, or copper, for instance is
subjected to atomic bombardment.
They are used in various iieias oi
research.
Lilienthal said that scientists
were unanimous in the opinion
that the isotopes could not be used
in research which would lead to
discovery of A-bomb secrets.
But Strauss told tne committee
that he felt this country should
not take a "calculated risk even
if it were slight" of aiding bomb
rtasearch abroad.
Lilienthal testified that Isotope
shipments had been sent to Nor
way and Sweden, and to Australia
and Canada.
Strauss saiu that the State De
partment had cleared the export
of the material to Finland but
neither he nor Lilienthal knew
definitely whether any had been
shipped mere.

Russia's position on the Issue of
Germany's political and econom
ic unity, French sources said.
Acheson Replies ,
A Council source said Vishin
sky began his address by accus
ing the Western powers of de
parting from the principles laid
down in the Potsdam Pact. He
then Vent on to express Russia's
continued interest in the future
of the Ruhr. The West has
worked out an International con
trol plan for the industrial val
ley .excluding Russia.
U. S. Secretary of State Ache-
son rose as Vishinsky sat down.
Acheson strongly criticized what
he called Russia's "back to Pots
dam" policy. He compared it
with the idea of a patient who
had the use of three limbs re
stored after being stricken with
paralysis, and being induced to
return to the paralyzed condition.
The American secretary
stressed the determination of the
West not to undo what had been
done in Western Germany up to
now.
