"ATLANTIC C ITY-(P-The danger of any imminent industry-wide

Under legal "death sentence"
and faced with an SEC order to
produce a plan for disposition of
its utility properties American
Power & light came up with a
new plan of selling Washington
Water Power Company to Wash
ington PUDs, just before the year
end deadline. A previous plan was
knocked out by a superior court
ruling that Washington PUDs
couldn't own and operate utility
properties in Idaho where WWP
gives extensive service. The new
plan seeks to get around this road
block by the device of setting up
a non-profit corporation to take
over the Idaho portion of the prop
erty. Active in the deal is the well
known Guy C. Meyers, who has
been midwife to many public own
ership ventures in Nebraska and
Washington. The scheme he has
worked out for WWP is similar
to that employed in the acquisition
of Nebraska Light & Power, which
once was an AP&L property. Under
the new .plan the non-profit cor
poration would acquire the WWP
common stock. It would retain
the Idaho properties and complete
construction of the company's
Cabinet Gorge hydroelectric plant.
It would sell the Washington prop
erty of -WWP to PUDs of Chelan,
Pend OreiBf fftdteveas counties.
They would operate them jointly
and might sell the Spokane portion
to the city. Bonds would be issued
by the non-profit corporation and
by the PUDs to pay off outstanding
bonds of WWP, retire its preferred
stock and provide the sum for
distribution by AP&L. to its stock
holders on its dissolution.
The compensation for Meyers
would be two-tenths of one per
cent of net proceeds of bonds sold
by the district plus eight-tenths
of one per cent additional payable
out of profits

Reds Reject
PW Exchange
MUNSAN, Korea 7P)-The Com
munists Thursday flatly rejected
an Allied proposal for an exchange
of prisoners of war and civilians.
But Rear Adm. R. . Libby said
the Allies in turn categorically
refused to accept the Communist
rejection of their six-point pro
posal because the Reds either mis
understood it or were twisting it
to obscure the issue.
The Allies Wednesday proposed
an all-out swap of prisoners of
war, interned civilians, and dis
placed Koreans, except those who,
of their own free will, refuse re
patriation.
The subcommittee on truce su

Captain Spends Fifth Day on
Stricken Ship as Rescue Nears
LONDON (JP) A British tug
Wednesday night raced to the res
cue of New Jersey's one-man crew
on the Flying Enterprise wallow
ing in strong new gales 350 miles
out in the Atlantic from Falmouth.
Capt. Kurt C arisen, who brushed
aside with courageous stubborn
ness all suggestions that he aban
don the 6,711-ton freighter, was
spending his fifth lonely night on
the ship as it drifted halplessly
and almost flat on its side.
The deep-sea Tug Turmoil, one
of Britain's fastest and largest,
set out from Falmouth bucking
50-mile-an-hour winds and heavy
hail showers and would not reach
the Flying Enterprise and put a
line aboard until late Thursday.
Officials of tflfe Isbrandtsen Line,
the owners, hoped Carlsen ' still
would ride his ship into port, but
the savage seas would make the
task of getting a tow line aboard
extremely difficult
Carlsen, a veteran of the seas
despite his 37 years, declared he
would stay aboard ''until I'm tow
ed in or sunk." He chose to wage
his one-man fight against the sea
McCarthy
Sued by
'Ex-Spy'
WASHINGTON- - Charles E.
Davis of Pasadena, Calif., filed a
$100,000 suit against Senator Mc
Carthy (R-Wi ) Wednesday. He
charged slander r.nd breach of
contract.
McCarthy told a reporter the
suit was "too ridiculous to require
comment."
Davis' petition, filed in U. S. Dis
trict Court here, said he entered
into a verbal contract with Mc
Carthy Sept. 25, 1949 to obtain
"certain valuable information" for
McCarthy about State Department
employes in Europe.
Disclaims Association
Davis recited that he carried out
his part of the agreement until No
vember 1950, when he Was arrest
ed in Geneva, Switzerland. At
that time, Davis said, McCarthy
disclaimed any association with or
employment of Davis.
The petition added that Davis
then was held in custody by the
Swiss authorities, charged, tried,
and convicted of certain offenses
against the laws of Switzerland
and finally furnished air transpor
tation back to this country.
Expelled From Country
The Swiss Court convicted Davis
on charges of political espionage
in behalf of the senator, sentenced
him to eight mont'- in prison and
ordered him expelled from the
country. Since he had already ser
ved 11 months in jail while await
ing trial, he was deported immedi
ately last October.
Davis' suit said that as a result
of McCarthy's disclaimer of con
nection with him, he has "suffered
loss of wages and also suffered and
will continue to suffer the loss of
employment."
McCarthy said in his comment
that Davis "has claimed to be com
pletely broke," and "it will be in
teresting to find out who is finan
cing him in this venture."

down Wednesday to payments of
$78,225 to farmers who said fumes
