Newspaper Page TextI i St Tft rWOaftP, Wgflfrfip e TR., JQ E0 1962 Udall's Mountain Slieepr Dafft Prapnjstif Draws Both Praise, Blasts Thursday SEATTLE (UPI)-Interior Sec retary Stewart Udall's proposal that the federal government build a dam at the High Mountain Sheep lite on the Snake River was both blasted and supported Thursday. The blast came from public ana private power interests ieeK ing the location, and the support from Rep. Al Ullman, D-Ore., and Bonneville. Power Administrator Charles F. Luce. Ken BUlington, executive secre- tary c the Washington Public Utility District Association, said here that Udalls action was gratuitous, improper and incon' siderate. Kinsey M. Robinson, chairman of the board of Pacific Northwest Power Co., said in Spokane that Udall was contradicting nimsen. WPPS Application Filed A Washington State PUD organ- Ten Convicts Still Defiant PITTSBURGH (UPI)-Tcn de fiant convicts holding out atop a water tower In Western Correc 1 1 o n a 1 Institution in protest against what they called "inhu man" treatment of inmates face the toughest test of their four-day rebellion today. With a hot, sunny day and temperatures in the 90s forecast, prison officials predicted the reb els would give up and come down from the catwalk of the water tower 80 feet above the prison yard. So far, three of the original 13 have cracked under the strain of thirst and hunger. One came down Thursday and two the pre vious day, William Zlefle, 21, gave up against the mounting odds in mid-a fternoon Thursday and climbed down a ladder into the waiting arms of guards. Zlefel, serving 9 months to 2 years for armed robbery, would have served his minimum term on July 30. He was rushed to the prison hospital where authorities said he was suffering from dehydration. The two who gave up Wednes day, James J. Fletcher, 25, and Alfred Nardl Jr., left the hospital Thursday. They were sent to the prison's disciplinary section, which was the eause of the pro test demonstration. Although the section Is known to the inmates as "the hole," Warden James F, Maroney said it Is far from that. He said pris oners confined thers receive reg ular meals but lose their privi leges such as movies and television. lzation known as the Washington Public Power Supply System (WPPSS) filed in early 1960 an application to build a dam at Nez Perce, a few miles downstream from High Mountain Sheep. Pa cific Northwest Power Co., com prised of four private power firms, has been seeking Federal Power Commission approval to build at High Mountain Sheep since Nov. 7, 1954. Udall asserted federal construe tion at the High Mountain Sheep site would result in lower cost of power and assure that efforts would be made to preserve and improve fishery resources. Luce and Ullman supported nis con-tention. Nez Perce is opposed by sports and commercial fishing interests because that site Is below the con fluence of the Snake and Salmon rivers. The Salmon is one of the last large streams in the Colum bia watershed where spawning grounds are abundant. High Mountain Sheep is above the Salmon. "Secretary of Interior Udall's gratuitous action of recommend ing High Mountain Sheen dam over Nez Perce dara- is Improper by Interior's failure to Intervene in the regular FPC hearings and inconsiderate in view of the pend ing FPC decision based on the Pacific Power Gets Coos Coal Leases Two coal leases Involving most of the Eden Ridge coal deposits in Coos County, were Issued this week to Pacific Power It Light Co. Stanley D. Lester, acting man ager of the Bureau of Land Man agement Land Office at Portland, said the leases covered almost 5,- 000 acres, The deposits were explored and developed during the past four years under prospecting permits. The United States mineral leasing laws give the holder of a prospect ing permit a preference right to lease after having made a discov ery of coal in commercial quantities. The coal is proposed to be used for operation of a steam power plant to be constructed as power demands in the area increase be yond present power supplies.

Highway Croup Faces Touchy Topic SALEM (UPI)-The State High way Commission today faced the touchy problem of whether to re locate the McKenzie Highway at Blue River in Lane County. The highway department has recommended a south bank route on Highway 126 near the small community. Thursday a delegation of Blue River citizens took their case to the governor's office, charged the highway department with bias and asked that the present north bank route be retained and im proved. Edwin Zeitz of Blue River. chairman of the "North Bank Road Committee" said the reloca tion would be a death blow to existing businesses on the north bank. He also said the south bank route would destroy much of the wild natural beauty of the area. Zcltz said the highway depart ment neid a public hearing on its plan in Blue River June 5. and it was evident the highway offi cials are "very biased" for their own plan, Ignoring arguments for the north bank. More petitions were presented, adding to a number the governor has already received. Zcitz also said that a report contrasting the log traffic on both routes issued by the Forest Serv ice wos "inaccurate" and "inade quate." Yet, Zeitz said, the High way Department is using the re port in its recommendation to the highway commission.
