WASHINGTON (JW The House
Public Works Committee Monday
approved legislation to authorize
beach erosion projects, for future
construction
Projects In the omnibus bill
would cost $822,000,000' although
this does not represent the total
federal cost which ultimately will
be Involved .
In some cases the committee ap
proved a project but limited the
monetary authorization to "a por
tion of the total cost. This means
that before such projects are com
pleted additional authorizations
will be necessary.
In addition to the fedesal costs
local interests will contribute some
funds in many instances.'
Chairman Dondero R-Mich.) of
the committee said he hopes he
Bouse will act oa the bill in the
near future.-
Projects must be authorized be
fore Congress can appropriate
rtanninf and construction funds

EUGENE (JW Former President
Herbert Hoover denied Monday
that he ever advocated federal
withdrawal from the electric
power business,- and said Adlai
Stevenson in a speech here Satur
day was led into two bther."grave
misstatements of fact or implica
tion in respect . to myself."
The ex-President said his stand
on the federal government in the!
power business was that the gov
ernment should get out of the "so
cialistic and bureaucratic empire
building by way of operating the
powerhouses and distributing pow-
' . . mm. . a.
er. tnai ine jeaerai governmenx
should sell its power at the bus
bar power connection made at
damsite). to the municipalities, the
states and the private utilities.
Referring further to the grave
misstatements," Hoover said he
did not veto the first multiple
purpose dam for hydroelectric
power, but that he did veto the
Norris Dam bill because there was'
not adequate protection for the
Treasury.
"I have advocated mulupie-pur-
post dams when justified for the
past 30 years," Hoover said. "Fur
ther, I had a large part in bring
ing about and almost completed
during my administration the . . ,
first and largest multiple-purpose
dam in our country. This was the
Hoover Dam on the Colorado."
Stevenson, the 1952 Democratic
nominee, told a democratic rally
here that the present administra
tion was going back to the Hoover
power policies of 1931. .
Hoover, here for a brief fishing
vacation, left by plane for San
Francisco Monday after replying
to Stevenson's remarks.
Die Calls for, :
Billions More
Highway Aid
BOLTON LANDING, N.Y.
President ' Eisenhower called by
proxy Monday night for billions
more of highway construction to
meet defense needs of atomic war
and of a possible population of 200
million by, 1970.
Through Vice President Nixon,
the President proposed to the an
nual conference of governors a
federal-state alliance in a "grand
plan" of road development.
He said 50 billion dollars over
the years will be only a good start
toward meeting requirements of a
200 million population. But he
didn't come right out and propose
spending that amount.
. In the international field, the
chief executive declared that in
times of crises we must maintain
"a military dike on our defense
perimeter."
And, sketching in b xad terms
I the American philosophy' of gov
ernment, ne saia n represents Die
middle "road between nihilistic
chaos and enslaved regimenta
tion."
Eisenhower cancelled a personal
appearance at the feovernors con
ference because of the death of a
sister-in-law, Mrs. Milton -Eisen-however.
Vice President Nixon
took his place .for a prepared ad
dress using: the chief executive's
notes. .,.-
The highway plan was laid be
fore state governors already snip
ing at a new 900 million dollar
highway aid law on grounds it goes
against tteir own demands. The
governors want the federal govern
ment to abandon gasoline and car
taxes and let the states use them
to finance roads on their own.
Cries of "appeasement" " and
"deal" rang out at the conference
Monday agaibst the new law.
Eisenhower bore dovvt on high
way improvements as one of the
essential home front jobs-that must
be done to "further the purposes
of America." -
The over - riding purposes, he
said, are the building of a co
operative peace, and the strength
ening of America and her friends.
But be said they must have an
economic base, minus any "blue
print for a regimented economy."

Sea-Trains
To Alaska
Bein? Studied
WASHINGTON (UP) - The De
fense Department is studying the
military and economic feasibility
of having, sea-trains operate be
tween the Pacific Northwest and
Alaska, a spokesman said today.
No defense department recom
mendation has been made, the
spokesman said, pending the out
come of an Army study of a spe
cial , report on the question. How
ever, a Defense Department trans
portation official said the Idea
"appears desirable."
He said that loading rail cars
on ships in the Pacific Northwest
and transporting them to Alaska
would ; reduce stevedoring costs
and boost coastwise trade.
The army's transportation corps
has a report on the sea-train idea
prepared by W. Wyer k Co.,
Orange, N.J. The report was re
ceived two weeks ago.
MaJ. ' Gen. P. F. Yount, chief of
transportation, has barrel pub
lication of the Wyer report pend
ing completion of a study by his
office, r - '
with 33 years postal service. He
will manage some 2,400 post offices
serving about five million persons
in , Oregon, Washington, Idaho,
Montana and Alaska.
His district managers also were
sworn in. They include Ralph C.
Saxton Jr., Seattle district opera
tions officer Jerome F. . Daven
port, Spokane; Mervin L. Merrltt,
Butte, Mont; James C. Leighton,
Boise, and Bryant D. Brady, An
