Lattimore
Indicted
By Jury
WASHINGTON VP) A federal
rand Jury indicted Owe i L ' -more
Tuesday on seven count! of
rf-': - . perjury. He was
f ' ytSk accused, among
other tnings, oi
testifying falsely
that he had never
been a "sym
pathizer and pro
moter of commu
nism and Com
munist interests."
Thecharges
against the Far
Eastern specialist
arise from his
testimony before
the Senate's In
Lattimore
ternal Security Subcommittee last
ipring. ,
Lattimore, director of a School
of International Relations at
Johns Hopkins University. Balti
more, was grilled by the senators
for 12 days about Communist con
nections and what influence he
wielded on America's postwar pol
icy in the Far East.
Protests Innocence
"I am, of course, innocent,"
Lattimore said at the office of
his attorney here, where he was
Informed of the indictment
The grand jury, after going over
the record of the Senate hearing
with government prosecutors,
charged that Lattimore lied about
seven "material" matters. The
Jurors reported:
1- That he testified he had never
supported communism, whereas
he "had been a sympathizer and
promoterof communism and Com
munist interests "
2. That he testified falsely he
did not know until 1950 that Dr.
Ch'ao Ting Chi was a Communist.
Chi was a man Lattimore worked
with at the Institute of Pacific
Relations and was accused by the
subcommittee of being a Red
agent.
Pen Name Cited
3. That he swore that he did
not know until the late 1930's that
a person who used the pen-name
of "Asiaticus" was a Communist,
knowing this testimony to be un
true. "Asiaticus" contributed to
to "Pacific Affairs," a magazine
Lattimore edited for the Institute.
4 That he swore falsely that,
aside from Russian contributions,
he had never published articles In
"Pacific Affairs" by persons whom
he knew to be Reds.
5. That he testified he lunched
in 1941 with a Soviet ambassador
in Washington after Hitler's inva
sion of the Soviet Union, whereas
the fact was that he met the am
bassador before the invasion oc
curred and while Russia and Nazi
Germany were still allies.
Handled Mail
6. That he swore that he never
handled the mail of Lauchlin Cur
rie, an aide of the late President
Roosevelt. The grand Jury said
there is evidence that he did so
on occasions when Currie was
away from Washington.
7. That he testified ' e visited
the Chinese Communist headquar
ters at Yenan in 1937 without
making any advance arrnnee
ments. The grand Jury said this
was untrue, that in fact he did
make advance arrangements.
When he was challenged by the
senators about contradictions in
his testimony, Lattimore said they
were lapses in memory about
trivial things many years ago.

Bypass Congress AllotaeDnts
SEATTLE U. A far-ieaching
change in the way of financing
future Pacific Northwest federal
power developments was proposed
Tuesday to the Bonneville Region
al Advisory Council, opening a
two-day Seattle session.
A research committee, headed
by Dr. Maurice W. Lee, dean of

Chosen. But U.S.
Fleet Separate
PARIS The Atlantic Allies
Tuesday named British Adm. Earl
Mountbatten boss of the Mediter
ranean sea lanes, but left the pow
erful American Sixth Fleet inde
pendent in that sea under U. S
Adm. Robert B. Carney.
Prodded by Prime Minister
Churchill, proud of British naval
traditions, the Council of the
North Atlantic Treaty Organiza
tion acted to:
1. Set up a brand new command
in the Mediterranean with the
mainly defensive role of guarding
the Allied lifelines between Gib
raltar and Suez.
2. Placed it initially under
Mountbatten,52, a World War II
hero who is a second cousin of
Queen Elizabeth II, but specified
that he must be subordinate to the
supreme allied commander In Eu
rope, U. S. Gen. Matthew B. Ridg
way. 3. Left the TJ. S. Sixth Fleet as
the naval arm of the Naples-based
Southern European Command
headed by Carney, who also re
ports directly to Ridgway. The
primary wartime Job of this fleet
would be to support land opera
tions. , '
DiSalle Named
As Stabilizer
WASHINGTON If) President
Truman Tuesday brought Michael
V. DiSalle back into the govern
ment as economic stabilizer to help
maintain a "strong" anti-inflation
program until the new Republican
adminif'ration takes over on Jan.
20.
DiSaUe made it clear that he
feels controls over prices and wag
es will be necessary to ward off
threats of inflation for some
time to come.
The former price director add
ed that he is sure the new Con
gress will study the situation care
fully before deciding to abandon
the program.
DiSalle probably will be sworn
in" Monday to succeed Roger L.
Putnam, who resigned as econom
ic stabilizer Tuesday to return to
his private business in Springfield,
Mass.
Defense Mobilizer Henry Fowl
er said later at a press confer
ence the price and wage control
program will be maintained.

In other session activities, the
Council heard both encouraging
and discouraging reports from Dr.
Paul J. Raver, administrator, and
Williarr A. D .Tier, power man
age of the neville Power Ad
rninistration, and the controversial
issue of the aluminum industry's
use of present Tower su. . lies was
debated.
Both Dr. Raver and Dittmer
agreed thtr- is a serious likeli
hood of further curtailment of
power use this winter. For the next
several years, however, they said
there need e no further cuts in
"firm" power supplies sold on
the understan "ng it w;1" be avail
able at all times.
Power Issue Debated
aluminum power issue was
debated by a panel of Norman L.
Krey, manager of the Kaiser alu
minum reduction plant near Spo

Raver Suggests
Regional Board
Bupd All Dams
SEATTLE (f) An "explora
tory suf-ffestlon" that the fed
eral government retire entirely
from the feneration, distribution
and sale of hydro-electric power
in the Pacific Northwest, was
made Tuesday by this region's
top government power man
Dr. Paul J. Raver, Bonneville
Power Administrator.
Dr. Raver also suggested to
the Bonneville Regional Advis
ory Council "that we take power
completely out of the hands of
the federal government" and
place it in the hands of a re
gional board either elected or
appointed by the governor! of
the states concerned.
"This board should be given
the power to build dams and
finance them. It would be noth
ing but a power agency set up to
conduct a power business only."
their exrvnditures for transporta
tion, supplies and power and Bill
ingsley said it would be "as ridi
culous to say we ha 'e too much
aluminum as to say we have too
much timber."
Smith said the private power
companies are carrying a "back
breaking burden" in their expen
ditures for ..am-ge ierad pow
er and that the region's; first ob
ligation should be "to people al
ready here" before adding indus
tries that use large amounts of
power In proportion to the employ
ment they provide.
Under the Lee plan for financ
ing future power developments.
Congress would authorize each
proposed project.
Market Place Test
Bonds might then be bought ei
ther by the U. S. Tasury or pri
vate investors, giving the projects
the additior "test c the market
place."
Such a revenue bond plan is now
used for financing municipal and
public utility district plants In
Washington state. It has also been
suggested by the Hoover Commis
sion's task force on public works,
the Lee report said.
Dr. Raver noted that during the
next four years federal projects
now under construction will pro
vide more than 1,500,000 kilowatts
of "firm" power "equivalent to
another Grand Coulee or four Bon
ne villes." Non-federal projects
private and public will add sub
stantially to the total.
National Power Shortage
By 1954, he said, the nation will
have the "worst power shortage
it has" experienced Just as we are
coming out of our shortage." On
this basis, he added, the Pacific
' ' j
Northwest should be in a "posi
tion to take on important new in
dustrial loads."
Beth Dittmer and Dr. Raver
agreed, however, that by the end
of the present decade, the North
west will experience another pow
er crisis unless large new proj
ects are authorized immediately
The present acute situation can be
attributed directly. Dr. Raver said.
to the failure of Congress to launch
new projects in 1946.
Panel discussions on two other
controversial issues, fish vs. dams
and upstream storage, will be
heard Wednesday. The Advisory
Council is made up of delegates
from all over the Northwest.
U.N. Overrides
U.S., Soviet on
News Issue
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. UPI
The UN Assembly, over the opo-
sition of the United States and
Russia, adopted a draft conven
tion Tuesday aimed at setting up
an international right of correction
for news.
To come into force, the draft
convention must be ratified by six
nations. It was adopted in the As
sembly, 25 for, 22 against, and 10
abstentions.
Nations signing the convention
would be obligated to release to
news agencies and correspondents
any corrective item sent It by an
other signatory nation.
Charles A. Sprague of the U.S.,
who publishes the Salem, Ore.,
Statesman, said the convention is
likely to be a source of friction
between nations.
"We find in this convention an
unlimited right to initiate a cor
rection and no means to deter
mine if the offending article or the
correction itself is an accurate
presentation of the facts," said
Sprague.
A. A. Sobolev of Russia said
Russia opposed the convention be
cause it would not stop propagan
da. Sobolev plunked for a Soviet
resolution which would ban publi
cation of any article which could
be deemed war propaganda. The
Russian resolution was defeated
35 to 9, with 14 nations abstaining.
U.S. Said Willing
To Pay Settlement
Of Iran Dispute
WASHINGTON ") Well in
formed sources said Tuesday the
United States is willing to put up
100 million dollars to back a plan
for settling the Anglo-Iranian oil
dispute.
These officials reported the Am
erican government is ready to ad
vance as much as 100 million into
Iran's treasury as emergency fi
nancial aid If Iran and Great Brit
ain agree to cooperate in ending
their long and bitter quarrel over
nationalization of British oil prop
erties in Iran.
The money would be used to
help restore Iran's financial equi
librium. The strategic Middle
Eastern country has been losing
more than five million dollars a
month In oil revenues since the
British closed down their refin
eries and pulled out.
SWIFT RECUPERATION
HUGO, Okla. UP) A 41 year old
mother who gave birth to her 12th
child Monday night was back from
the hospital an hour and a half
later performing household chores
Mrs. August Williams, wife of
a lumberjack, told her doctor:
"I've got to get back and take
care of the other nine still at
home."
Hospital
Project
Wins Vote
Replacement of the old hospital
building at Oregon State Hospital
in Salem over a six-year period,
at an estimated cost of $8,500,000,
gained State Board of Control ap
proval Tuesday.
The first $3,500,000 will be asked
for the 1953 Legislature, for a six-
story structure including the east
wing and a central building in tne
rear to house patient - employes
wards, auditorium, library, occu
pational therapy and surgeries.
In event the legislature approves
this construction work will start
late next spring.
Construction during the 1955-57
biennium would call for rebuilding
the south wing of the existing hos
pital to provide six large wards
and also add one story to the re
cently constructed administration
building. Cost of this construction,
including demolition of the pres
ent buildings, was estimated at
$2,500,000.
North Wing in 1957-59
Construction of the north wing
of the hospital, also to cost $2,
500,000, is proposed during the
1957-59 biennium.
Gov. McKay said the project
was vital because the present hos
pital building is a fire trap and
should have been replaced many
years ago.
Secretary of State Earl T. New
bry predicted the domiciliary
hospital near Portland, approved
by the voters at the last general
election, eventually would be used
for treatment of many types of
patients. The cost of the domicil
iary hospital was estimated at $3,
000,000 but no money was au
thorized by the Voters. It will be
up to the legislature to provide
funds for this structure, officials
said.
Inmates Increasing
Dr. Charles E. Bates, State Hos
pital superintendent, said the
number of patients is increasing
rapidly. During the year ended
July 1, Bates said, the hospital
treated 4,000 patients, and h pre
dicted this figure would be In
creased to more than 5,000 the
next biennium. During the last
biennium 3,000 patients were treat
ed. Present population of the hos
pital Is 3100 patients.
Voluntary admissions, Bates
said, have increased 40 per cent.
Other projects to be referred to
the 1953 legislature, in the order
of their priority, include a state
intermediate instiution, $2,500,000;
cottage for 100 inmates of Fair
view Home for the Feeble Mind
ed, $32,000; surgery and strong
rooms for the Eastern Oregon Tu
berculosis Hospital at The Dalles,
$90,000, women's dormitory at the
State Penitentiary, $250,000, and
administration Building, kitchen
and dining room at the State Blind
School, $300,000.

A-Tests Due
Early in 1953
LAS VEGAS, Nev. CP Anoth
er atomic test series In Nevada,
possibly early in 1953, was indi

The AEC said it was awarding
the Reynolds Electrical and Engi
neering Company, El Paso, Tex.,
a contract calling for maintenance,
minor construction and scientific
structural services at the Neva

here -were conducted last spring.
Parked Cars
A run-away load of logs crash
ed into three unoccupied cars at
State and 12th Streets Tuesday
morning, badly damaging two.
The accident occurred about
9:20 o'clock when the rear end of
a log truck-trailer broke loose
from the front end as the vehicle

Milk Price
Differential
Finds Favor
PORTLAND OR Most mem
bers of the newly appointed ad
visory committee on milk control
legislation agreed at a meeting
here Tuesday that milk bought in
stores should cost less than home
delivered milk.
But there was disagreement on
how the price differential should be
accomplished.
Samuel B. Weinstein, attorney
for the State Board of Agriculture,
suggested that the state give up
control of retail store prices but
maintain controls on wholesale
prices to stores and home delivery
prices.
This would permit itorekeepers
to sell at reduced prices by cut
ting their margin of profit, he -said.
The suggestion was opposed by
some of the producer and distri
butor members. They contended
that the wholesale price should
drop so the rtorekee r could con
tinue to take his customary z-cent
a quart i fit.
Herbert Hardy of Safeway
Stores, Inc., said the wholesale
price could be reduced by econom
ics made in wholesale distribution.
Weinstein also proposed that the
state be divided into four or five
production rones to permit more
frequent hearings on milk prices.
He defended other aspects of
the present milk control law in
cluding its licensing policy.
But Hardy criticized the law for
what he said was deciding "where
a distributor should be allowed to
distribute."
"Safeway was denied admission
to the Salem market on the basis
that an additional distributor
would disrupt the market. Yet
within 18 months a new distributor
was allowed on that . market," he
said.
The committee, made up of ad
visors and representatives of con
sumer, distributor and producer in
terests, is to meet again the State
Board of Agriculture, in January,
Chairman Marshall Dana reported.

Doctors Divide
Tivo-DayOld
Siamese Tivins
CLEVELAND OH Two-day old
girls who were Siamese twins for
the first three hours of their lives
were "doing fine" in separate in-
cutators Tuesday.
Doctors at Mt. Sinai Hospital
drew the curtain of anonimity
about them when their rare case
became known but said "they're
doing fine. They re eating rnd per
forming normally."
The twins were separated by
surgery. At birth they were joined
by a short band of flesh at the
point where the chest and abdo
men meet.' The three doctors who
participated in the case emphas
ized that the operation was pos
sible because no vital oragns were
concerned.
It was not the first time surgery
has been used successfully to sep
arate Siamese twins, said a spokes
man for the American Medical
Association in Chicago. In none
of the previous' cases of success
ful surgery were any vital inter
nal organs involved either, he add
ed. The reason for the incubators
was that the twins arrived about
a month ahead of schedule- The
first weighed five -. pounds, five
ounces, the second four . pounds,
15 ounces. The mother's condition
was described as "excellent"

New Irrigation
Contracts Said
PORTLAND OH The Willam
ette River Basin Commission an
nounced -Tuesday that a new type
of irrigation contract would be
available, along with 60,000 - acr
feet of water, in , the Willamette
VaUey next year.
The contract calls for farmers
to pay for ir lgation water lust &a
they do for electricity by tn
amount used; j
The 'contract, worked out by the
commission, the Bureau of Rec
lamation and Army Engineers, al
lows farmers to contract for speci
fied amounts of water, but does
not give rights to water in a speci
fic , reservoir. Nor will there be
liens on the land as Is usual in
irrigation districts. T
The announcement came on the
eve of the Willamette Basin Pro
ject Committee's annual ; meeting
at Salem, and the commission said
it was a "forward step so import
ant that it may mark the begin
ning of a new chapter in Oregon
history."
An increase in production
amounting to many ) r Uions of
dollars a. year can 'be foreseen
with a corresponding expansion of
fruit and vegetable canneries and
other industries based upon agri
cultural products," the commission
said. . . !
Col. Thomas Lipscomb, district
Army Engineer, said; 60,000 acre
feet of water would be available
to farmers in 1953, and that more
could be made available. Irriga
tion aspects of the valley project
are administered by the Bureau of
Reclamation, but construction of
the dams in the project were su
pervised by Army Engineers.
The basin commission estimated
that about a third of the 500,000
basin project has been financed
and built. Fern Ridge, Cottage
Grove and Dor en a Dams hava
been co- pleted. Detroit Dam is
near completion and Lookout Poini
is under construction.
The commission estimated that
a half-million acres of land in the
valley will need irrigation to keep
up with population growth and a a
Increased need for food.
