0 t Hearing Ended r On NW Standby Plants Proposal WASHINGTON UP) The house public works committee has ended a four-day hearing on a pro posal for construction of fuel-fired generating plants in the power short Pacific Northwest. The com mittee has delayed action on the proposal, i The final day's hearing brought forth a cautious endorsement of the idea from a munitions board spokesman and renewed opposition from private utilities in the gulf states. The measure before the com mittee would authorize construc tion of standby facilities, with a generating capacity of 400,000 kilo watts, in Oregon and Washington. Robert M. Hatfield, vice chair man and executive assistant to the munitions board chairman, testi fied that the Defense department "endorses any steps which will re sult in providing additional power in this critical area." Lack of power, he said, has cut heavily into needed aluminum and magnesium production in the area. This loss, he said, "will in evitably result in serious delays in our military production program." Plant Fuel Is Problem Hatfield qualified his endorse ment of the proposal by pointing out that construction of steam plants "brings up the very serious r problem of obtaining sufficient quantities of fuel oil, as well as the necessary critical materials . . . without disrupting other phases of the defense effort." He said he doubted that sufficient wood waste could be found to fuel the plants, but suggested as an al ternate the use of Oregon and Washington coal. Although recent rainfalls tenta tively have relieved the current emergency and permitted full op eration of aluminum production fa cilities, Hatfield said this "in no way changes the position of the Defense department as to the need for standby plants to- meet the load demands of low water pe riods." Frank M. Wilkes, president of the Southwestern Gas & Electric Co., told the committee that his previous testimony was not in op position to construction of steam plans, if necessary, in he Pacific Northwest. But, he added, "don't build those plants, if necessary, in the Pacific department of Interior so it can build steam plants all over the United States." He said his views were endorsed by Loui Riegel, vice president of the Gulf States Utility Co., Beau mont, Texas, and Bert -Hidburg, assistant to the president of Lou isiana Power & Light Co., Algiers, La. Both men were present but did not testify. Cottonseed meal is a valuable feed for cows and sheep but is sometimes toxic when, fed to hogs. 1 f'J.

Boyle Recommends Action For Wives Often Irritated By Husbands Who Snore By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK (AP) Sometime in the middle of the night I heard my wife call sharply from her twin bed : "Turn ovpr on your side, Kover. I saluted drowsily in the darkness, and carried out her order. Several times more before dawn came I heard her call across: "Turn on your left side. Turn on your right side." And once, I dimly recall, she said in utter exaspera tion: "I give up. For heaven's sake, stand on your head !" At the breakfast table this morn ing, I noticed Frances had circles under her eyes, and asked if she hadn't slept well. "Sleep?" she said indignantly. "I didn't get a wink all night long. You snored so loud I couldn't." "Probably because I was sleep ing on my back," I mumbled. "Why didn't you turn me over?" "Turn your over?" she de manded. "I had you spinning like a top you, you human flap back. You flopped about like a fish but you kept right on snor ing. I don t Know wnat to ao wnn you." Here's the Man of Tomorrow Of course you know him. He's the youngster who de livers you your newspaper. And he's the one who's studying hard today preparing for his role of tomor row's businessman. The work he does, the accounts he keeps, the salesmanship he learns are all lessons in his book of success. Keep your eye on him and watch how he grows and develops until he reaches his goal of inde pendence and success. She looked so depressed that I didn't have the heart to tell her the full truth. She doesn't know yet what she's really up against. For the terrible Boyle curse has struck again! The curse that runs in our tribe is snoring. Sooner or later it strikes us all -man, woman, or rhild. And there is nn known i cure. ! No one knows how long this dark I ana noisy affliction has been in our clan. But grandfather Boyle brought it over from Ireland with him. And it has raged unchecked for at least three generations since then. It seems to predominate on the male side, but once it breaks out in a lmaiiy mere is nouiing but insomnia for the others until they, too, catch the ailment in time. Then, as the matching snores rise up and smash in echoing waves in the darkness, peace comes again to all. Women who have married Into our family have tried everything to break up this snoring. But in the end the only way they have found rest is to take up the habit themselves. Strong Cast Recorded There was the case of Cousin "Marble Mouth" Boyle as we call him. His frail put marbles in his mouth to stop his snoring. It worked for a week, but then a strange series of squeaks and grinding noises began coming from him. He was snoring again! The only net result was that when she took out the marbles, he got Insomnia. And for the rest of his life he had to sleep with bis mouth full of marbles. The wife of another cousin of mine once took up needlepoint at night because of her husband's snoring. She eventually did the whole history of the Civil War in needlepoint before she finally dis covered how to snore herself. Poor Frances. She doesn't know yet what she's in for. I'm buying her a pair of earmuffs and a bonk on insomnia. But these are only stopgap measures. What she'll really need is a book on "how to learn to snore in self-defense." It's the only way a girl can really protect herself, once her husband takes up snoring in earnest. Don't fad for fSow Electric rwtei St Willi.
