Great Northwest Expansion Ahead Say Raver and Ickes PORTLAND, Ore., Feb, I.-Off) The administration of Bonneville dam, the government's huge hydro-electric power project on the broad Columbia river, . looked ahead today to Pacific northwest expansion through new Industries.

Specific Comment Trio of German Raiders Shot Down; Norway Vessel Struck By J. C. STARK LONDON, Feb. 3-tf)-Britains royal air force, fighting to pro tect her vital sea lanes from Ger many's bomb blockade, today shot down three nazi war planes in the fiercest air battles over England since tbe war's start. British observers estimated that at least a score of German fJombers joined in the wave of attacks on British and neutral shipping up and down 400 miles of the east coast. The admiralty late tonight had "nothing to say" regarding the reports by DNB, official German new- agency, that 14 ships in cluding nine merchantmen, four British patrol boats and one mine sweeper were sunk during the day. Survivors of one plane attack on the 629 -ton Norwegian freighter Tempo landed with a story of having been both bombed and machine-gunned by three nazi planes. At least four of her 14 crewmen were known to hare died. New War Minister Makes First Appeal The British airmen's reply to the third German attack within (Turn to Page 3, Col. 1.) Budget Reduction Slight Says Glass Tendency to Spend Other People's 3Ioney Is too Strong, His Verdict WASHINGTON. Feb. l.-iJPy-Despite dep cuts in President RooseYelt's , spending requests, Senator Glass (D-Va), a leading economy advocate, said today that there was little chance for "any substantial reduction in tie total budget. The S 2-year-old Glass, chair man of the senate appropriations committee, told reporters that "people like to spend money too well especially when they are spending other peoples' money." While Glass was talking, the senate farm bloc was organizing for an attempt to add hundreds of millions to the house-approved 1722,001.084 farm bill, and Glass said it was unlikely that the house figure could be re tained. Besides restoring some house reductions, the senate farm groujp wants to add at least $200,000,000 for parity pay ments. The house measure, providing money for the fiscal year be ginning July 1, was $66,928,435 under the president's budget es timate and $579,339,231 below the funds available for this fis cal year. Despite pressure from farm leaders, the house stood by many cuts suggested by its appropria tions committee. Before approv ing the bill late last night it added about $89,000,000 for su gar benefit payments and for ac tivities of the rural electrification administration. Budget reductions effected by the two chambers and their committees, as the various appro priation measures stand now, total $155,000,000. Some farm senators are urging that this money, plus part of any future savings, be turned over to the farmers. In that connection, one farm senator suggested that the farm measure be delayed until after Che senate has acted on tbe $1, 800,000,000 national defense bill. He said that if substantial savings could be effected on the latter measure, then the chamber would be justified in making additions to the agricultural measure. Senator Lucas (D-IU) sug gested that $500,000,000 might (Turn to Page 2, Col. 5) also Interest at tH P cent," the report aaid.

"While most of these inquiries, which eover such fields as eleetro metalurgical. electro-chemical and allied operations, are not likely prospects for immediate deliver ies of power," he explained, ne gotiations are being actively con ducted with a number of those Industries' having aggregate de mands approaching 100,000 kilo watts." He advised Secretary Ickes of 12S inquiries and applications from other agencies with a total prellminarj demand of more than CO 0,0 00 kilowatts of firm power.

Feb. 4-(Sunday)-(JP) Finland's most terrible pun ishment by bombs in a little more than two months of Russian In vasion was reported early today, with a total of 78 planes raiding one city alone and many other cities suffering deadly raids. First estimates of Saturday's victims said at least 50 were killed and 100 wounded in the south half of Finland, but that was before the 78 planes, in three waves, made an evening attack on Kuopio, tbe second of the day. Kuopio, a railway city of some 10,000, is located in the great lake country of middle Finland. Big Red Guns Shell Mannerheim Line While these raids were going on, big guns of the red army shelled the Mannerheim line from one end to the other, after two days of direct attack had been broken on the battlefield of Sum ma. In a raid earlier in the day. 30 people had been killed at Kuo pio. Casualties from the second raid were not known, for the populace was huddled in air raid shelters far into the night. Three Finnish fighting planes fought a fleet of 20 soviet bomb ers in a spectacular air battle over Kerava, near Helsinki, late in the day. The Russians dumped all thetr bombs and turned on their machine-guns. Residents of the town came out of air raid shelters to see one soviet bomber fall and the others turn tail and run. TvJ.'people were killed when a 16-plane Russian squadron bomb ed a chapel at Blenajokl. At Port, on the southwest coast, there were many dead and wounded. Several others were killed at 11puri, main target of the red army's Mannerheim line drive, and heavy damage was in flicted. Lovisa and Kotka also were raided. Thirty six planes set aflame the little city of Kerava, 20 miles north of Helsinki, while the mad music of air raid sirens howled in the ears of capital residents. Authorities said the raids were fully as extensive as those of the previous day, when 400 Russian planes were counted over Finland. Saturday's estimates of air raid casualties brought to ap proximately 150 the civilians known to have died in the week'B bombings. Saturday's continued bomb ings (which the Moscow com munique again said were di rected at military objectives) and the incessant shelling of the Man nerheim line were the aftermaths of two red army attacks in the snows of Summa. Here, 20 miles south of Vlipu ri, tanks, armored sledges, para Chute troops and infantry smashed at the strongly fortified area of Karejian Isthmus. Both these attacks failed. Roadmaster Killed ST.

MATTHEWS Popular Mnister Lapses Into Coma Recovery From Pneumonia now Unlikely; Career Is Notable One SEATTLE, Feb. 1-JP)- The Rev. Dr. Mark A. Matthews, not ed Presbyterian minister, lapsed into a coma tonight from which physicians said there was scant hope of recovery. The colorful pastor of the na tion's largest Presbyterian con gregation was recovering from an attack of pneumonia that caused his collapse last Tuesday when he suffered a stroke yesterday. This sudden complication re moved hope that he would re cover, Dr. J. H. Berge said. Thousands of persons have telephoned the Seattle General hospital during tho past four days to wish . Dr. Matthews a speedy recovery and to ask his condition. His wife and son and daugh ter, Mark A. Matthews, ' Jr., and Mrs. Norman E. Scott, of Los Angeles, were constantly at his bedside. Dr. Matthews, former modera tor of the church, has been pastor of the First Presbyterian church here for 88 years. During that time be conducted sensational vice crusades, one of which ended in the conviction of a Seattle chief of police. Burglars Active Saturday Night Three Homes Prowled and Articles of Value Are Taken, Police Told Burglars were unusually active in Salem early Saturday night judging from reports investigated by city police. Two neighboring houses, the Warren Lindsay residence at 975 Garnet street and the Bertha Wil liamson home at 965 Garnet, were visited. At the Lindsay home an ivory-finish radio set valued at $15 was taken. Time of the visit to the William son home was Indicated by the fact that a clock had been knocked down and had stopped at 6:45. There a barrel bank almost full of money, the exact amount of which was unknown, was stol en, but some other articles of val ue were passed up. At the Walter Oldenberg resi dence, 989 North Winter, burglar ized sometime between 2:30 and 7:30 p. m., a Hamilton watch worth $50 was stolen.

(VP) The four members of the Balkan entente las surviving Eu ropean alliance for the defense of small nations recognized tacitly tonight that each one must look individually to big powers to keep them out of Europe's war. Sources close to the Yugoslav ian, Rumanian, Turkish and Greet delegations to the entente confer ence here confirmed that their foreign ministers, meeting in a two-hour session today, found their national interests too strong ly divergent to permit extension of their anti-Bulgarian pact to save them collectively from the warring big powers. Foreign Ministers Grigore Ga- fencu of Rumania, Sukru Sara coglu of Turkey, Alksander Cincar - Markovic of Yugoslavia and Premier General John Me- taxas of Greece were understood to recognize frankly the impossi bility of making any Important decisions whatsoever at this con ference.

Oregon's present state admin istration doubtless wouldn't be unhappy if political complexions should change a bit within the democratic party or otherwise by the time the quadrennial pres idential campaigns are burled in the ballot boxes next November.

Pierce, of course, also suggest ed that if Oregon didn't want any federal dictation, it should with draw its hand from the direction of the federal treasury; he failed, however, to note at the same time that the states will pay the bill in tbe long run for the "handouts" they are. now obtaining from that source. It all makes observers wonder if a western state, little in the eyes of a blase east, may lead the way In a new fight for freedom. Lincoln Banquet Plans Announced Mt. .

Mace Kelly Machine Acts Wkhout Okeha Sunnise 14,000 Names Are Filed in Surprise Action; President Silent Vote Is Advisory; Open Pennsylvania Choice Is Demo Decree (By the Associated Press) Petitions were filed Saturday tm place President Roosevelt's name on the Illinois primary ballot. First Washington reaction in cluded expressions of surprise, but it was generally assumed that tbe White House had not been con sulted. Reports from Springfield said 14.000 persons had signed peti tions asking that Mr. Roosevelt's name be entered in the April t presidential preference primary. The petitions had been circu lated by the Cook county demo cratic organization, headed by Mayor Kelly of Chicago. Kelly has advocated ' a third term for the chief executive. While tbe petitions were not accompanied by a certificate of candidacy from Mr. Roosevelt, tbe Illinois secretary of state said that the president's name probably would be placed ou the ballot. The Illinois primary is merely advisory, and does not bind tbe delegates. Tbe voters' expression, however, is regarded as an obli gation on convention represen tatives. Thomas E. Dewey, tbe New York prosecutor, formally entered the Illinois republican primary. Others Won't Enter, Washington Forecast Most Washington politicians predicted that if Mr. Roosevelt'e name went on the Illinois ballot there would be no' other demo cratic entries, asserting that Paul V.
