Attorneys Hit
Boiling Stage
At Dam Talks
WASHINGTON OP Private and
public power attorneys clashed
heatedly Tuesday at the Hells Can
yon hearing, one asserting in effect
that stalling tactics were being
used, the other demartding an apol
ogy. The exchange enlivened techni
cal testimony, at a Power Commis
sion hearing on the Idaho Power
Co. application to build three
Snake River dams between Idaho
and Oregon, including one in Hells
Canyon where a federal project
has been proposed.
The fireworks began after Mrs.
Evelyn Cooper, attorney for ad
vocates of the proposed federal
dam, said she wanted to "reserve
the right," to recall for cross-examination
at some later date a
witness who had been questioned
for two days.
Protest Delay
Idaho Power Attorney R. P. Par
ry, protesting at Mrs. Cooper's
latest request for such permission,
said suctf requests place the com
pany in an "impossible" and "in
tolerable" situation.
The red-haired Mrs. Cooper said
she had asked a 90-day delay earl
ier in the hearing to prepare her
case and she has been cooperating
in cross-examination "to the extent
I am able."
Trembling and almost in tears, I
she said she had worked "close to
400 hours" on the case in the past '
month. j
Byron Brinton of Baker. Ore.,?
read a statement saying he rep- i
resents the Hells Canyon Associa-!
tion composed 'of people "who have
been vitally inteested in the de-;
velopment of the Snake River for
a number of years."
Fought 'Mediocre Plan , j
. He said the group has been fight- j
fng the Idaho Power's "medtocre'" j
plan for the Snake River for sev- f
eral years and participated in the '
at Baker a year .ago.
Power Commission Hearings Held i
Public power groups contend the
affirmative case for Hell Canyon
should have been presented by
Secretary of the Interior Douglas ;
McKay. But McKay has withdrawn j
his department's opposition to the j
Idaho Power applications oppo- j
sition which last year was pressed
by former Secretary Chapman who
favored the federal plan.
Pro-Hells Canyon groups say Mc
Kay's action and the change in
Idaho Power's plans have made
it necessary for them' to employ
aa engineer.
Engineer Coming
Mrs. Cooper said an engineer
has been engaged and will come
here from Portland in about a
week. He is Roy Bessey, formerly
chairman of the Interior Depart
ment's Northwest Coordinating
Committee, member of former

Irrigation Report
Robert A. Hogg. Idaho Power
engineer, began testifying late
Tuesday on the results of an irri

His testimony was' designed to
sJiowthat backers of the federal

mated the amount of Snake River
water that will be needed in the
future.
Idaho Power contends the Snake
isn't big enough to fill , the pro
posed Hells Canyon reservoir and
supply upstream irrigation needs
at the same time.
Hogg said his survey shows 317.
000 acres of Idaho land along the
Snake River will be placed under
irrigation by 1962, and nearly two
million additional acres by 2008.
A Columbia Basin Interagency
Committee estimate used by Hells
Canyon proponents, said the 358.
000 acres would not be irrigated
until 1978. Hogg said.

IGds' Plight
First-Hand
An appeal for clothing to im
prove the plight of war-stricken
Korean children has come from
a Salem mother and her son.
Mrs. Gilbert E. Jones, and son,
Gene, a military policeman in
Seoul, are ready to pay postage
if articles are sent to the Jones
home, 495 N. 21st St.
"We would even be
said Mrs. Jones, "to
willing,"
call for
articles within the city if there
was a need to do so."
Sees Children's Plight
CpL Jones, whose first-hand
observation of Korean children
prompted the venture, plans to
use his allotment money to fi
nance shipment of packages. An
ex-Salem High School athlete, he
attended Willamette University in
1952 before enlisting in the army
last September.
"I have always dreaded asking
people for charity, writes CpL
Jones from Korea, "but I'll drop
my false pride for this. It's char
ity all right, and these kids need
it badly. It won't be long before
it will be getting cold here so I
want to get the bill Tolling."
Worked with YMCA
CpL Jones first became inter
ested in helping youngsters while
working as a YMCA Unit Director
at Camp Silver Creek in the sum
mer of 1951-52, according to his
mother, who added that "by help
ing the children of Korea we shall
feel closer to our son.
"Perhaps there are other par
ents with sons in Korea." she con
tinued, "who might feel the same
way."
Mrs. Jones emphasized there
are 300,000 orphans . in Korea
and that packages take six weeks
to arrive there. Parcels will be
distributed at a Methodist orphan
age in Seoul to children ranging
from tour to sixteen years of age
CpL Jones has also written that
the children are without toys and
that contributions in this depart
ment are needed.

Cannery Strike
Takes Effect
In California
SAN FRANCISCO The gov
ernment moved quickly Tuesday in
efforts to settle a strike of cannery
workers which could affect the en
tire nation's supply of fruits and
vegetables.
, Some 22,000 AFL workers struck
at 6 o'clock Tuesday morning in a
wage and welfare dispute.
Within eight hours, the Federal
Mediation and Conciliation Serv
ice had arranged resumption of
negotiations for Wednesday after
noon. .The action followed an ap
peal by 11 California congressmen
who pointed out the strike threat
ened growers 'with a crop loss of
104 million dollars.
The resumption of negotiations
was set for 2:30 p.m. Wednesday
at the Palace Hotel. The disputing
parties the California Proces
sors and Growers; Inc., and the
California State Council of Cannery
Workers Unions hace agreed to
attend.
Talks End
Previous talks ended abruptly
Monday when the CPGA, represent
ing most of the state's canneries,
rejected a union proposal for wage
increases and changed working
conditions.
The union, affiliated with the AFL
Teamsters, then called the walk
out. Workers in various categories
now receive from $1.24 to $1.96 an
hour. The unon had asked a
straight 10-cent raise. The employ
ers agreed to a 10-cent raise for
foremen, but sought to scale the
increase down to 6 cents for; lower
bracket workers.
Pleas Dispatched
The Associated Farmers of Cali
fornia. Inc.. and the California Can
ning Pear Assn., immediately sent
pleas to Washington.
President Eisenhower was asked
to invoke the Taft-Hartley Act for
an injunction, and telegrams were
sent to Vice President Richard Nix-

The strike came during a lull

to cause severe losses to growers

After that the crop will be ripening

large.

More than 60 canneries, mostly
in Northern aqd Central Califor
