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

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.

"It has an estimated 14 billion

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

and forestry," he said, "awaiting
the auspicious moment when the

Radio To Link Pacific Northwest Power Grid Sites
SEATTLE. 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.
The network, which will cost
about $2,500.00 to $3,000,000,
will transmit messages by voice
as well as written messages, pic
tures and diagrams.
V. M. Murray, manager of the
Puget sound district, said that
the new system will partially re
place present telephone and tele
graph facilities, which have
proved tod slow. He said it will be

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.

JUST what do you see in this hand
some, tidy-sized Buick Special
pictured here?
The smartest bit of automobile
styling on the road today? The
standout beauty of tapering fenders
the sturdy protection of a wholly
new front-end design?
The prestige that's in the Buick
name the solid, road-wise steadi
ness Buick has always stood for?
bur chance to get in on the perfect
smoothness of Dynaflow Drive
this being the lowest-priced car on
which that sensational new trans
mission is available?
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.
