By "JON KAMPS WASHINGTON I Whether Washington State's testimony will be thrown out of the Hells Canyon i case will be decided when the Power Commission hearing re sumes Jan. 5. A public power attorney asked Examiner Willia n J. Costello to strike the state's testimony and exhibits shortly before the hearing was' recessed Thursday for the holidays. The motion was made by Mrs. Evelyn Cooper, attorney for groups favoring construction of the pro posed federal Hells Canyon Dam near one of the sites sought by Idaho Power Co. for three power projects in the Snake River be tween Idaho and Oregon. The hearing is on those applications. Washington State's case, in op position lo the federal project, was presented by Holland Houston, power adviser to Gov. Arthur B. Langlie. Mrs. Cooper asserted Houston did not qualify as an expert witness and said his testimony was in competent and failed to support Washington's petition to intervene in the case. 1 I s if Srffchos You Don't ' You iiwh'l be a conttrtumitt to rtach dsii araweri of garagt doom urUhtkukty chain of .

Jonathan M. Wainwright and widow of a noted Army ?nd railroad engineer, Col. Frederi vars, died Thurs day night. Mrs. Mears, 73, was stricken with a heart attack and died at St John's Hospital. She had been in failing health since the death last iept. 2 ot Gen. Wainwright, with whom she had an exceptionally close brothcr-sis'.er relationship. Mrs. Mears, born in Walla Walla, Wash., formerly lived in Seattle and Washington, D. C, during Col. Mears' Army and railroad career. He was an Army railroad builder in the Plulipines and Panama and built the Seward-Fairbanks rail road in Alaska. He retired in 1923, then served with the Great North ern Railroad and was its ohief en gineer when he died in 1939. She declared Houston "has had little or no working experience with comprehensive river develop ment" and claimed he aid not make studies necessary for authori tative evaluation of multi-purpose project benefits. She told Costello that Houston's "opinions and views are limited almost exclusively to powerdevel opment" and that his "experience and views rest on his discussions with innumerable persons at in numerable conferences." Houston's testimony, she said, was a "conglomeration largely sup ported only by opinion and hearsay evidence" wnicn would only "bur den and encumber the record." Mrs. Cooper said Houstin failed to sunort the intervention peu tion's statements relating to grow ing power requirements and the need for flood control in the Co lumhia River Basin.. Costello said other lawyers In the case could reply to the mo tion by mail before Jan. 5 when he said he would rule on it. Two attorneys indicated they would opose the motion. They were Bernard Lonctot, Washing ton's chief deputy attorney gen eral who is handling the state's case, and R. P. Parry of Idaho Power Co.
