(AP) The chief of the Army Corps of En sinters promised Saturday, to have ready within a few weeks his decision and proposals on the re vised report for Columbia Basin development. I.t. Hen. E. C. ltschner said his conclusions will be based on sound unbiased reports "without any in structions from any higher au thority." Speaking at a luncheon after dedication of The Dalles Dam, he mentioned the differences between public and private power groups, as well as those in wild life and transportation fields. "When opinions become so un yielding as to threaten and stifle the growth of the entire regiun, it is time for reasonable compro mise," ltschner said. He promised Army Engineers will not propose anything tint would jeopardize future North west water development.
