Guy Cordon'! bill to put 472,000 icrei of disputed Oregon timber land under Forest Service administra tion won approval oi the Senate Thursday. The bill now goes to the House. ' The Senate passed the measure ??. volce mte a,le"" rejecting, 52-18, a move by Sen. Morse (Ind Ore) to put the lands under the Department of Interior's Bureau of Land Management. The BLM, which now manages tome two million acres of timber, land in Oregon, claimed jurisdic tion of the 472,000 acres. Morse said it would be "more sensible and efficient" to have the entire acreage under one agency. Cordon (R-Ore) said the 472,000 acres, which are part of the Ore gon and California railroad land grant reclaimed by Congress in 1910, now are under Forest Service administration, and should remain there.

In The Day's News By' FRANK JENKINS Chancellor Adenauer of West Germany, addressing the hign aounding but HIGHLY INEFFEC TIVE ministerial council of tne European Consultative Assembly now in session at Strasbourg in France, says: "Western Europe must not slacken efforts to build. up a com mon defense against the threat from tiie East. . . "The Russian aim is STILL to extend the Soviet sphere of influ ence and DEPRIVE THE WHOLE WORLD OF FREEDOM. . . "I can see no sign of any willing ness on the part of the Soviet Union and its partners to per mit any true relaxation of inter national tension." That is what he said. Here is what he meant: "The rest of Western Europe, which isn't willing to FIGHT for its liberties, better agree to let the Germans. WHO ARE WILL ING TO FIGHT, build an army." That makes sense. If nobody else is willing to fight for liberty, here is a thought that (Continued on page Four) The Weather Fair this afternoon, tonight and Saturday.

This differs from normal Forest Service administration in which 75 per cent goes to the gov ernment, 25 per cent to the coun ties. The bill also directs the Interior and Agriculture departments to ex change lands within two years to form cohesive administrative blocks, and thus increase manage ment efficiency. Morse argued that a recent de cision of the U. S. Court of Ap peals declared the 472,000 acres to be O it C lands. He said tha( meant they should be administered by the BLM. Cordon said the court decision did not settle tho administrative question. He added that the deci sion was subject to appeal, ship" basis. Sens. Magmison and Jackson (D- Wash), sponsors of a bill to au thorize construction by local inter ests of the Priest Rapids power dam on the Columbia River in Washington State, Thursday indi cated such may be the result at bearings before a Senate public works subcommittee. The committee considered the i Priest Rapids bM and one by Sen. Cordon (R-Ore), to authorize joint construction of Cougar Dam on Oregon's McKenzie River by the federal government and Eugene, Ore., Water and Electric Board but recessed without taking action. A joint statement by Magnuson and Jackson suggested they were lukewarm toward their own bill. The senators said the primary reason for the bill was that "There have been no new starts in the Pacific Northwest for two years and this year there are no funds in the budget to initiate construction on new dams." Magnuson said while he "thoroughly disagrees" with the administration's power policy ha felt the "local people should have a chance to help themselves" be cause of the Northwest's needs for power. Sen. Morse (Ind-Ore) also ex pressed doubt as to the merits of the proposal and urged the sub committee to "be very careful" in approving legislation which might modify the national power policy. Cordon urged the subcommittee to approve his measure. He said it would enable the city to "pro vide for its own power needs and at the same time reduce the cost of flood control to the federal gov ernment." Both bills were passed by the House Wednesday. Grain Crowert Winners Of Lower Freight Rate SALEM. Ore. Wl A 10-cent per 100 pounds cut in grain freight rates from the Northwest to the Minneapolis milling area was an iiounced Thursday. The first word on Hie reduction came from Charles H. Heltzel, Oregon public utilities commission er. It was confirmed by a Great Northern Railway rate official in Seattle, who said the agreement Had been reached Thursday. The Great Northern spokesman said the reduction was agreed to by all the transcontinental lines serving the Northwest. He said t'rf cut is from 86H cents a 100 pounds to 76 V4. Gram growers had petitioned for a cut of 12 cents to 74 V4. "This is a great boon to the arain erowers of the Northwest," Heltzel said, "because they have been shut out of eastern markets by blanket percentage freight rate .ncreases "Now, with this reduction, they again will be placed on an equal footing with growers in ether areas." Work Of Red Cross Defined Within Framework Of Civil Defense Setup At Meeting At a meeting in Roseburg this week, the activities of the Amer ican Red Cross in the county were defined within the framework of the Civil Defense organization. The burden of delineating the Red Cross work fell to Mrs. Kath erine Hall Chambers, San Fran cisco, district representative for the American National Red Cross. She reviewed plans of the local Red Cross chapter to participate in the CD. Mrs. Chambers stated that a strong civil defense organization is necessary in order to effectively minimize the effects of any disas ter. She said this may be either war-caused or natural. She contin ued that such an organization. in do way negates the responsibi nihility of the Red Cross for meeting hum , m men.! iiiu.uvn.
