Protect Fish
WALLA WALLA tfl A four
point plan for protecting and de
veloping fisheries resources of the
fnlnmhia River basil, was adoDted
Wednesday at the 79th meeting of
the Columbia Basin Inter-Agency
Committee. f
The plan calls for:
1. Support in obtaining adequate
appropriations to complete the
Lower Columbia River fisheries
development program.
2. 'Devising a program for the
Columbia basin upstream from the
Lower Columbia . fisheries work,
and a program of research on
problems related to fish resources.
3. Broadening the inter-agency's
fisheries steering committee to in
clude directors, or their represent
atives, of fish and J game depart
ments in Idaho., Montana, Wash
ington and Oregon.
4. ; Exploring ways of putting
various new programs into effect.
The four point plan was ap
proved after an Exhaustive report
bv the fisheries steering commit
tee, ; headed by Herbert Lundy,
associate editor- of the Portland
Oregonian.
The report said the "need for a
comprehensive examination of the
fisheries problem in the Columbia
River basin is urgent at this time
because of conflicts accompanying
the development of the area's wa
ter resources."
The governor - members of the
lnter-agency committee from its
seven 'Northwest states were un
able to attend the meeting be
cause most have state legislatures
in progress, but all sent repre
sentatives in their place.
For the same reason, the Gov
ernors' Power Committee, made
up of chief executives of Wash
ington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana
and Wyoming, was forced to can
cel a scheduled meeting here, Wed
nesday. , -
Earlier at the inter-agency ses
gion, the proposed Columbia Basin
interstate compact was explained.
The compact was signed recently
at Portland, by the seven states
involved. Washington, Oregon, Ida
ho. Montana. Wyoming. Utah and
Nevada. It still must be. ratified
by their legislatures. The same
states are represented on the inter
agency committee.
on an investigation , of murder
charge last night a few hours
after the popular pastor was shot
down at a drive-in restaurant. Of
ficers said Smith was "very
drunk" when seized.
The minister was : shot in the
back as he stepped from his car in
which he had been riding with his
wife. Elizabeth, a neighbor. John
Wallace, and Jones. He was rushed
to . Southern Nevada ' Memorial
Hospital, but was dead on arrival.
Suspect Booked
Smith was taken into custody at
the scene of the shooting, but was
not booked until after police had
questioned the sl&in minister's
grief-tricken wife. Wallace and
others listed as witnesses.
Smith, a friend of the pastor for
several years, was believed to have
once been married by the victim
to a woman attorney in Helena,
Mont.
B. J. Handlon, chief of detectives,
said a motive for the killing had
not been established yet, but that
the reverend apparently had been
talking to Jones about the latter's
drinking habits during a ride in
the car.
Handlon said the ' minister, his
wife and Smith all were riding in
the front seat of the car, with the
minister driving and his wife seat
ed between him and Smith. Wal
lace sat in the backseat. !
When they stopped, at the res
taurant for a snack. Handlon said,
the suspect allegedly whipped out
a German lugar, held it closely to
Mrs. Jones and then fired into the
minister's back as he stepped from
the auto.
Wrestled for Gun .
The bullet smashed through Rev.
Jones body, piercing his abdomen,
and lodged in the restaurant's. as
phalt driveway. Mrs. Jones leaped
from the car and knelt over he
fallen husband's body while Wal
lace was believed by police to have
rested the gun from Smith.
Franklin R. Wolf, 20, an airman
at nearby Nellis Air Force Base,
told detectives he saw Wallace,
holding the gun, dash into. the res
taurant and call for an ambulance
and the police.
Officers said that when they
reached the shooting the suspect
was wandering aimlessly about
He made no effort to resist being
taken into custody, they said.
In additior to his wife, Jones is
survived by three children. Tom,
22. Jerry. 19, and Julie, 17.
He graduated from the General
Theological Seminary in New Yorr.
He came here .three years ago
from Grand Rapids, Mich., where
he was pastor for four years. He
also was believed to have resided,
in Montana. v

Man Honored
By Monument
AVOCA, Wis. s (UP) In fewer
words than required to write this
itory, the history of one man's
fight for freedom is inscribed in
a country churchyard here.
It tells how Wincenty Daiewa
cowski forsook great wealth to
become a common laborer but a
free man in America.
- A seven-foot high monument to
Daiewamowski, a Pole, bears this
inscription: x
Born a nobleman of great
wealth, Wincenty Daiewamowski
embraced in 1830' the tenets of
the Polish revolution.
"His cause defeated, his wealth
confiscated, he secured exile to
America from Nicholas of Rus
sia through the intercession of his
friend, Ferdinand of Austria.
Sailed from Thiest, November,
1882. Arrived in New York,
March. 1834.

One Photo
PLATTSBURG, N.Y. (UP)
Four buildings in this city and
the neighboring village of Chazy
stand as memorials to a man so
modest that only a single photo-1
graph of him ever was found. 1
Tne picture a snapshot was j
of William Henry Miner, whose !
AVI tUUV A UatI lUflAlllf 4.1. HV11VU
draft gear for railroad freight
cars was estimated variously at
between $100,000,000 and $250.-
000,000.
Miner, who died in 1930, made
his home in Chazy, about seven
miles south of the Canadian bor
der. For the village, he built a $1.
600,000 school that was consid
ered a model for the nation in the
early 1900's and remains, compar
able to almost any today. At his
farm. Miner set up two hydro
electric systems that, served the
school, a teachers' home that he
built and the village streets with
electricity. - -
Also in Chazy is the Miner Mu
seum, which he built to house
relics of "north country" history.
And, in this city stands tie
multi-milhon-d o 1 1 a r Physicians
Hosnital which was three veara
in the building and was consider
ed one of the world's finest upon
its completion in 1925.
In the hospital lobby hangs an
oil portrait of Miner painted from
the one snapshot of him. Across
the lobby hanps a $45,000 Reu
bens painting that was given to
the hospital by his widow.
British Form
Wide Range
Of Plastics
LONDON (INS) A new range
of plastic materials, which can be
alloyed like metals, has been de
veloped by Britain's Peterlite
Products Ltd.
It is claimed that the new plas
tic materials can be given a vari
ety of properties, such as trans
parency and hardness in combina
tion, which have been sought by
plastics manufacturers throughout
the world-i
The new materials will resist
heat up to more than 200 degrees
centigrade,' twice the boiling point
of water, they do not suffer from
fatigue, can be made clear as crys
tal, are only half the weight of
glass and products made from
them can be sterilized.
This new range of plastics can
be used in the manufacture of
medical and surgical appliance,
tood packaging in sterilized con
tainers and their ability to resist
acids and solvents make them
useful in the dental field.
- They are said to provide a sat
isfactory material for underwater
periscope, television apparatus.
Experts believe they will helo to
solve the problem of providing
materials capable of standing no

erated by high-speed, high alti
tude aircraft and to the risk of
structural collapse resulting from
these stresses.

Infancy of
Tarpon Said
Big Mystery
MARINELAND, Fla. (UP)
Almost every fisherman in Flori
da waters is familiar with the big
fighting tarpon which attract
sportsmen from all over the
world, but nobody neems to know
much about tarpon before they
attain their great size.
Curator F. G. Wood, Jr., of Ma
rine Studios here recently found
a number of small tarpon, only
three to three and one-half inches
long, in a pond here. He could
not remember ever seeing any of
the "silver kings" that small and
decided to do a bit of research.
"Wood said that Dr. C. M. Bre
der of the American Museum of
Natural History described baby
tarpon only two inches Ions found
near Sanibel Island on Florida's ;
Gulf Coast Dr. Breder also hatch
ed fishlets from what he believed
were tarpon eggs, but they all
shrank and died after about three
days.
Wood said that one mystery is
that almost all the very small tar
pon found were collected from
land-locked ponds. The ' eight
young fish found here were sein
ed from- a pond that connects
with an inlet only during the very
hiehest tides of the year.
He said tarpon are able to
breath atmospheric air and are
not dependent on oxyeen in the
water. Thus they would be able
to survive in such nonds, but the
neriod in the life of a tarpon from
three davs after hatching until it
attain the length of two inches
is stfll a mystery.
Wood said only three of the
eight tinv tarpon he caught sur
vived. The staff is giving them
mat care, honing they will some
day graduate to the giant tank of
the oceanarium. .
