A.PAGE TWO The OREGON STATESMAN. Salem, Oregon, Tfcnxsday Morning, October 23. 1930 EN POWER PLAN REVISED Seawater Plant to out-do Niagara, is Claim of Georges Claude By w. bl.akesl.ee NEW YORK, Oct. 22 (AP) Charges Claude tonight predicted Niagara Falls would be outdone ft a power source by a future aeawater plant, which would be an lmpro Yemen t of his experi ment at Matanzaa, Cuba. Niagara water falls less than feet, but Claude told a meet ing of the American Society of Blechanical Engineers he could product power equivalent to sea Water "falling in as unlimited erasure as wanted in a cataract IfO feet high." The scientist, who .is on his way to France, gate the engi neers technical figures of power produced in his small Cuban plant, which he said prore his claims. At Matanzaa he obtained 12.5 kilowatts of power from a differ ence of temperature of 10 de grees centigrade between sur face and deep water. Temperature is Secret of Plan Bat, he said, this power Jump ed to 22 kilowatts with an in crease of 3 degrees in the temperature difference. He ex plained that the efficiency of a aea water power plant grows as the square of the temperature difference. "And," he said, "there la a difference of 24 degrees available most of the year in the region of Santiago de Cuba." This temperature difference, he said, is not the only source of the additional power expected. It will come also from ironing out mechanical Imperfections which he described in the Cuban plant. He aald his experiments show ed that "in large plants of the future" it will be. possible to ob tain more than 500 kilowatts of power from every cubic meter of cold water passing per second through the works. Of this power four-fifths, he said, will be net. the other fifth being re quired for operation.

HUE OF FLERBLE MtSIE SOUGHT HOLLISTER, Mo., Oct, 22. fAP) The Osark hills country, its foliage touched by the reds of autumn, is not yet tnrougn with the mystery in which Jake Fleagle cloaked himself to stave off the law tor two years. "Little Jake" is dead and bur led In the plains of Kansas, but the banks of Lake Taneycomo echo the whispers that have stirred the countryside since the Lamar outlaw was wounded fa tally at Branson a week ago. "Did Fleagle have a cache," ask residents here, "in which he might nave stored his loot?" The possibility1 of a hideout, somewhere in the vicinity of the cottage in which Fleagle lived as Walter Cook, has -warmed the blood of potential treasure nunt ers. Already the sheriff has been summoned to the cottage, where fortune seekers hare at tempted to find riches. A truck eoaiooed with camping outfit and digging tools has moved noon' the place where 500 White Leghorn chickens for months os tensibly set down Fleagle as a poultryman. The region is thick with caves,' several of -which have been com mercialised for the benefit of tourists and the operators. Pos sibility that Fleagle maintained a second residence la one of these caverns, perhaps not visit ed by any one else for months or years, is another element that confronts treasure seekers.

Bryant alleged that he had an appointment to meet the young woman at mid night and escort her to the home of her mother. Girl Was Only Witness of Fight At 11 o'clock that night Bryant went to the coffee shop where he was advised by the young woman that she had accepted a date with Dickerson. .The state's evidence tended to show that Bryant went to a restaurant and secured a butcher knife which he concealed upon his person and went to a position across the street from the house where the young woman lived. A fight between Bryant and Dickerson followed, with the re sult that the latter was fatally wounded. Attorneys for Bryant advised Governor Norblad that the young woman, who was the only eye wit ness to the tragedy, could not state positively who struck the first blow. Neither did she see the knife. In requesting the commu tation of sentence the attorneys said that the circuit court room was crowded with college students at the trial and there were nu merous demonstrations prejudicial to Bryant. "I have felt,' read the attor ney's letter to Governor Iorblad, "that the unexpected verdict of murder in the first degree was reached because of the unusual demonstration at the trial.
