Street Name
Fits Season
An appropriate street name was
selected Tuesday night by the Sa
lem planning and zoning commis
sion White street.
But it isn't appropriate because
of the current blanket of white
snow over, Salem, nor because the
commission's new chairman hap
pens to be Robert F. White.
It's appropriate because the street
in question, extending three short
blocks north from Edge water
street, a block west of the Wallace
road, lies in the old donation land
claim of lames White, who laid
out the city of West Salem origin
ally. The iew name replaces Lin
coln avenue, because the latter
conflicts with a similar street name
in the Marion county part of Sa
lem. ;
Painter Urges
Psychological'
Use of Color
"Effective use of color can create
appetites in the dining room, pro
duce a relaxing! atmosphere in the
living room and make the kitchen
really attractive to a woman.
This was the statement Tuesday
night in Salem of Russell Davis
of Hollywood, Calif., national rep
resentative of the Painting and
Decorating Contractors of Amer
ica. He was here to address the
Capitol chapter of . the national
group.
Davis predicted that more ef
fective use of color in decorating
schemes would play a major role
in future plans of painting con
tractors. He said the 63-year-old nation
al igroup, second largest association
of 'its kind in America, is planning
an educational program to con
vince contractors and the general
public of benefits from proper use
of color.
Davis came to Salem from Port
land where the state painting con
tractors convention was held over
the past week end. He is slated to
speak tonight in Eugene and Thurs
day in Klamath Falls before re
turning to California.
Cleo Klaas.of Los Angeles, pres
ident of the national painting con
tractors group, is scheduled to ad
dress the Capitol chapter at its
next meeting, tentatively set for
February 6, Davis said.

Hydrogen Bomb
Dispute Rages
Undercover
WASHINGTON, Jan. 17-r.-A
raging undercover fight over
whether to build a hydrogen-powered
super-atomic bomb threaten
ed tonight to engulf scientists,
military experts and administra
tion figures in an open eruption.
Out of all the hush-hush dis
cussion about a new "weapon
dwarfing the original atom bomb
into almost pea shooter propor
tions, at least one new fact emerged:
Before any final decision is
made to go ahead with the hy
drogen bomb, the senate-house
atomic committee plans another
review of its possibilities, both
from the military and moral points
of view.
That is, a sign of how serious
the underground scrapping has
become, since there had been hints
earlier that the committee was
about ready to recommend that
the government go ahead with the
hydrogen bomb in order td beat
Russia to its tremendous punch.
Added Information
Among persons with some in
side knowledge of the problems
involved and the various currents
of talk about a hydrogen bomb,
this additional information is : a
matter of fairly general agree
ment:
1. Military men want the bomb.
They figure Russia is going to get
it so we should try to get it first.
2. Some atomic scientists tad
others are reluctant to work On
the new bomb. They consider; it
morally wrong to develop a weap
on which might destroy lives and
lands on a scale incomparably
greater than tha A-bombs of
World War II.
: 3. Some key civilians in the
administration lean toward the
idea we should develop the hydro
gen bomb to keen ahead or abreast
of Russia. But they don't relish
the prospect of another out-in
the-open row over defense poli
cies.
QnesUon of Time, Money
4. It seems to be Just a question
of time and money in creating a
hydrogen bomb. On a smaller
scale, this bomb would copy the
processes by which the sun re
leases its energy. Probably it
would take the explosion of an
ordinary atom bomb itself to set
off the hydrogen bomb.
The Pribilof Islands are summer
breeding grounds for about 3,000,
000 Alaska fur seals.

Dairy States
Lose Round
In Oleo Fight
WASHINGTON, Jan. 17 -Wh
Senators demanding outright re
peal of the federal taxes on oleo
margarine demonstrated their
power today by crushing a substi
tute bill backed by dairy state
members.
The final decision on repeal of
the margarine taxes is expected
later this week, possibly tomor
row. The senate recessed late to
day without any final action.
By a vote of 48 to 37, it re
jected the dairy croup's substitute
bill, which called for repealing the
64-year-old taxes but prohibiting
the interstate shipment of yellow
margarine.

roof at the time. He did not know
whether his insurance would cov
er the damage.
Reserves Called
Reserves from Grants Pass were
called to Roseburg Tuesday to re
place power crews who have
waged a losing battle against
storms for 11 days. Without power
much of the weekend, the city

California Oregon Power com
pany said It was the worst winter
on record with 22 major Una
breaks in the period.
The Salem first aid squad treat
