Stephens Phone 279 U. N. Will See Fight Between Chinese Factions LAKE SUCCESS. UP) Na tionalist China appears to have mustered enough support to beat down any present efforts by the Chinese Reds to unseat or silence the Nationalist delegation in the United Nations. ,. A bitter fight was shaping up, nevertheless. Western delegates resigned themselves to a long wrangle and possibly a show down in the 59-nation political committee of the general assem bly on who should speak for China. 1 , They had hoped to avoid any test during this assembly, but they are prepared to support the Nationalist delegation at least in the immediate future. The contest is expected to come when the political committee takes up Nationalist China's com plaint against Russia, probably next week. The Kuomlntang (Nationalist) government accused Russia of aiding the Chinese com munists in their sweep over the receding Nationalists. The Chinese communist regime laid the foundation for the con test by sending a message from Peiping to assembly President Carlos P. Romulo and U. N. Secre- Logging Congress Hears Criticism Of Federal Plans SEATTLE Bruce Moorhead of La Grande, Ore., was elected president of the Pacific Logging congress at the group's 40th an nual mnvpntinn hero He will replace Robert F. Dwyer of Portland. Moorhead is trom tne Mt. tmuy Timber Co. Outgoing President Dwyer told delegates that logging was no longer a private aitair, wltn a major portion of timber in the hands of some puhlic agency. "We must realize when we operate on federal forest lands that we are operating on lands that do not belong to us, but to our neighbors," Dwyer said. Cooperation must and does exist between the lumber indus tr and government representa tives but Olympic National park timber has been made a political football, he charged. "It has an estimated 14 billion to 17 billion board feet of the finest mature yellow fir timber In the world with a sustained yield capacity of over 200 million board feet each year," he said. "It was locked up into a na tional park through political maneuvering without any thought to the economic future of the state." Earlier, Sen. Harry P. Cain (R.-Wash.) made the welcoming address to the delegates from 11 western states. He told timber men that the administration sponsored forest practices act, submitted to congress last May would lead to government Con trol of privately owned timber lands. "The act now reposes quietly In the committee on agriculture and forestry," he said, "awaiting the auspicious moment when the administration has rounded up the votes to jam it through." The National Geographic So ciety says wheat and vegetables mature in the short summers of eastern Siberia, where tempera tures drop to 90 below zero in winter. tary-General Trygve Lie challeng ing the right of the Nationalist delegation to speak for China. The United States immediate ly lined up behind the Nationalist delegation headed by T. F. Tsiang, a former ambassador to Moscow. A British spokesman said his country also would support the Nationalist delegation as long as the Chungking government is recognized.

UP) Construc tion has begun on a new micro wave radio communications sys tem which will link Pacific North west power grid points, the Bonneville power administration disclosed.

S Columbia Valley Industrial Surge Urged By McKay LA GRANDE -,P Develop ment of the Columbia river val ley's power and irrigation possi bilities, as a first step toward creating more Oregon industry, was urged here by Gov. Douglas McKay. In a speech prepared for dc- television. A 100-foot steel tower already has been erected Just north of Snohomish. From there; micro waves will be beamed to Squak mountain near Issaquah. A re peater station atop the mountain will relay messages to Seattle, Olympia and Kent. Equipment and installation for the first unit, between Snohomish and Vancouver will cost $500,000. Other stations to be completed in early spring include Chehalls and J. D. Ross substation at North Vancouver. Bids will be opened Dec. 20 for a 26 station network reaching from Vancouver to Spokane via Coulee dam, and west over the Cascade mountains via Stevens pass to Snohomish. livery before the Oregon Farm Bureau federation convention, the governor said development of the river resources would pro-1 vide more jobs, and combat sea sonal unemployment In farming and logging. , "Oregon exports too much tim ber and farm products in the raw state," said the governor. "We should develop industries here to process farm products, and fabricate lumber thus, creating jobs which offset No. vember-March layoffs and bal ancing our economy.'.' The governor, an outspoken opponent of a Columbia Valley administration, avoided mention ing which agencies should do the developing. "The valley should be developed period," he said. More irrigation would increase farm revenue, too, McKay said. "We've no more farm land in Oregon. The only way to con tinue to increase the productivity and prosperity of farms is through Increased use of water.". The governor also urged cur. tallment of heavy government spending, while retaining such "reasonable" government pro grams as social security.

Option at txtra ait. W hen better autamnhllcn are built BUCK trill build them They're all there, every one of those things. And for a good reason that may go a bit beyond the usual idea in designing an automobile. For, a long while ago, we graduated from the idea that a motorcar is merely a means of getting about. The way you travel is pretty impor tant too. The lift that's yours in knowing there's no prettier picture anywhere on the highways. The "kick" there is in a power plant that's lively and eager and always ready to get in on the fun. The comfort that's found in all-coil springs, a husky, steady-traveling understructure, cushions that are deep and soft and wide enough to let you spread yourself a tit. Even that extra swelling of the chest that comes from owning a car you know everyone respects and admires. In a word your happiness. It's never out of our mind in planning this car nor in making very sure each dollar of cost gives you the greatest possible benefit. That's why we rather proudly ask you to go see and try this Buick Special. It's priced like a six, in spite of the fact that like all Buicks, it's a big-powered Fireball valve-in-hcad straight-eight. And we honestly believe that it puts a lower price tag on your motoring happiness than any other car you can buy today! See your Buick dealer and find out about that.
