into the wooden forms. He placed
damage at $25,000.
Workmen on the scene Tuesday
told firemen the forms would have
been put on the bridge Monday il
the company's big boom hadn't
suffered mechanical failures.
According to Edwards, the Win
chester and Shady bridges were
designed so the same forms could
be used on both. Real told Ed
wards the forms were burned suf
ficiently to be a total loss. Fire
men said there were probably 200
forms.
. All the piers of the Shady bridge
are In place. Work on the super
structure would have started im
mediately. Construction of the bridge will
not be delayed, however. Edwards
said a carpenter crew on the
Job would reconstruct the forms
as needed. Comolenon date for the
bridge is Sept. 30, 1955.
Additional damage to newly
poured concrete bridge support
posts was prevented by firemen
who kept a spray of cool water
on them.
It was not known at press time

is an outgrowth of the recent Mos
cow security conference, and is a
Russian answer to plans for the
rearming of Western Germany..
A gallery packed with intent dip
lomats in the great palace of the
Kremlin heard Molotov arraign
the United States. His bitter ad
dress must be regarded as a ma
jor statement of foreign policy.
He backed Red China to the hilt
on the Formosa issue. He accused
the United States of having cap
tured Formosa and the Pesca
dores and said this must be con.
sidered as aggression. He also ac
cused the United States of being
intent upon world domination
through the capitalistic system and
this means preparation for war."
Molotov's speech came in the
afternoon session after Blganin
received the premiership. The ses
sion was marked by a great ova
tion for Khrushchev personally,
the biggest of the day. .
It was Khrushchev who nom
inated Marshal Bulganin for the
premiership, presenting one of the
most remamaDie aispiays or per
! sonal influence since the Soviet
"collective leadership" took over
after the death of Stalin.
I Malenkov, stepping down from
the post he assumed 12 hours after
; Joseph Stalin's death in March
1 1953, confessed himself a failure
i in the field of agriculture and an
I nounced that the only correct
course for the Soviet Union is con
i centratlon on the development of
heavy industry.
In a speech to the parliament,
he acknowledged the need to turn
over his post to "another comrade
with greater experience in state
work.
He requested his own removal,
and then warned that it was to be
expected this would provoke
"slanderous inventions" in the
West. He expressed faith in the
"monolithic" unity of the Commu
nis Pary.
Malenkov is taking a new job
but what it will be was not an
nounced. The new Premier, white-bearded
Bulganin, was the Communist in
direct charge of Soviet armed
forces u n d e r Stalin d u r i n g
World War II. He is 59. Khrush
chev is 60 and Malenkov 53.
Some Western diplomats saw in
(he choice of Bulganin a further
evidence of the growing strength
of the army in the Soviet govern
ment. Others speculated that Bul
ganin would se.-ve as a sort of
chairman of the board rather than
a personal leader. All of those
present took due note that the
nominating speech was made by
Khrushchev and that he had been
greeted by a big, standing ova
tion at the outset.
Khrushchev said Bulganin was
the unanimous choice of the Com
munist Party Central Com mil tee
and the council of ninisters. Yet
Bulganin.seemcd a dark horse in
the race for the premiership.
Speculation in the Moscow foreign
colony had centered on Khrush
chev or Foreign Minister V. M.
Molotov as Malenkov's successor.-:
The parliament gave its unani
mous approval to the designation
of Bulganin.
Immediately after that Molotov
launched into a speech on Soviet
foreign policy. The 53-year-old
Malenkov, seated between Pres
ident Klementv Voroshilov and
Khrushchev, listened intently as
the foreign minister bitterly and
repeatedly accused the United
States of trying to impose "an
Iron Curtain and an iron heel" on
the Western hemisphere.
Khrushchev has been personal
ly identified with all the most im
portant events in Soviet life dur
ing the past year. Among other
things he has had personal charge
of the new agricultural program
with Its Stress on mechanization
and the opening of virgin lands in
Central Asia and elsewhere in
Siberia.
1 Also he has headed the recent
drive for concentration on the de
velopment of heavy industry.
Malenkov was identified in the
public mind with the campaign to
concentrate on light industries in
order to produce consumer goods
and raise the standard of living
of the Soviet people.
This concentration on light in
dustries was denounced recently
as contrary to the teachings of
Lenin and Stalin and dangerous
for the Soviet state. Malenkov, in
his resignation statement, said the
state must concentrate on ncavy
industry as the basis of alt pro-

force industry to locate in the up

They scored the voting provi
sions, claiming that Utah, Wyo
ming and Nevaua, with only a tiny
interest in the area, could prac
tically block any proposal. Of the
U votes on the compact commis
sion, it would take only four to do
that.
State Grange Master Elmer Mc

would kill the existing preference
clause, unaer wnicn puouc power
agencies get a preference on fed
eral power. Sen. Paul Geddes,
Roseburg. chairman of the com
mittee, agreed this was true. --
But Geddes said that killing the
preference clause would kep Ore

Washington now gets the lion'i
share of federal power. The com
