2-The Statesman, Satan, Oregon, Monday, May 30, 1955 Eden Appeals for End to Rail Strike LONDON. ( Prime Minister tden Sunday coupled a I dramatic personal appeal to raft-! way workers to end their nation- wide strike with a warning that ' his : government woyld use any j power necessary to "protect the ! nation." The 57-year-old Prime Minister High Dam at Hells Canyon Under Attack WASHINGTON Lf) - The federal Hells Canyon dam Sunday was as tailedyby' a Chamber of Commerce (roup as being socialistic and by a congressman as being inferior as a power producer to other projects proposed in ColumbiaN River tribu taries. The' Council of State Chambers of Commerce said the blocking of plans for private power dams in the Snake River along the Idaho- Oregon border by passage of legis lation authorizing the federal Hells Canyon project there would be " t bisse't step taken toward so cializing electric power in the Unit eel States since the federal mon opolization of power in the TVA area." And Rep. Jensen (R-Iowa) aid the federal Hells Canyon dam would produce less power at grat er cost than either Libby Dam on the Kootenai River in Montana or the Idaho Power Company's three proposed Snake River dams. The council, a research group representing 31 state and regional Chambers of Commerce, said in a study report that federal power advocates "have been working fur iously" for congressional action on Hells Canyon legislation. The council said the current ef fort is to have at least one house of Congress approve this year a bill to authorize a federal dam, and added: "That, they hope, would probab ly be enough to block action by the FPC (Federal Power Commission) for the remainder of the 84th Con gress. Pending before the FPC are ap plication of Idaho Power Co. for licenses jo construct three power dams in the Hells Canyon reach of the Snake River. An FPC Ex aminer has recommended appro val for one of the dams. The FPC legal department favors issuance of a license for the three power projects.

Copilot tackled the first crisis confront ing his new Conservative adminis tration bv eoinff direct to the people in a national radio broad cast just 13 hours after 70.000 railway engineers and firemen struck at midnight Immediate Chaos Chaos developed almost immedi- ntlv. Thousands of Britons were stranded at seaside and country resorts where they had gone lor the Whitsun holiday weekend. Eden steooed in auickly to end the strike and cautioned that the nation's whole booming economy was threatened with "unemploy ment on a rapidly increasing scale." Amealinz to the striking rau- waymen to bgin negotiations at once, the Prime Minister said the stoppage of trams has already been felt "Whatever happens now, the rmintrv "is eoinz to be hurt, he declared. Then, directing his re marks to the people for their sup port, he added: "Manv of vou will suffer incon veniences and hardship, workers as well as holidaymakers. T Protect Nation "More serious still, the damage .-hirh must be caused will injure our country. In a world which is becoming increasingly competitive supplies to factories will be af fected at once... hardship and loss there must be" Firmlv. Eden gave assurances that his government would "do all we can to protect the nation from the worst effects of this strike." "The government," he declared, "will not hestitate to obtain any further power that may be neces sary for this purpose." Although only the railway engineers and firemen are on strike, all of the nation's regular trains came to a halt shortly after midnight. The strikers are members of the Associated Society of Locomotive Engineers and Firemen (ASLEF), who are demanding pay increases to give them more of a differential over other train workers such as conductors, ticket takers, and porters.

Bent ley R-Mich) and Morano R-j Conn) said Sunday the House may j balk at voting Substantial foreign I aid this year to "neutral states." They added that Yugoslavia may be put in this category, along with India and Indonesia, if there are signs of political reunion between Marshal Tito and Kremlin leaders. The congressmen are members of the House Foreign Affairs Com mittee, which is considering Presi dent Eisenhower's ZVt billion dol lar military-economic aid pro gram. Hearings resume Wednes day, with Harold E. Stassen. re- tiring foreign operations adminis-' trator, testifying. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee approved the measure last week without making any dol lar cuts. . j For the fiscal year beginning July 1, the bill provides 404 mil lion dollars in military and eco nomic aid for Yugoslavia, 85 mil lion in economic help for India, and eight million in technical as- sistance for Indonesia. I Morano said he expects all of these sums to be questioned close ly by committee members, with a further fight on the House floor. Bentley said he and other con gressmen have "very definite res errations about giving aid to the neutral states." Bentley has long been a consistent opponent of for eign aid, but says that this year he is going to "go along with some kind of a program." A number of , House members have long criticized giving aid to India, and past appropriations have been cut. Indonesia also has come under milder attack for re fusing to line up solidly with the West against communism. In the past, Yugoslavian aid has escaped cuts despite considerable criticism. Now, Bentley said. House members are looking close ly for the results of the visit of Kremlin leaders to Belgrade. Secretary of State- Dulles at tempted to cdUnter both of these House trends by telling the com mittee last week he does not ex pect Yugoslavia to slip back into the Soviet orbit and describing aid to India as of major importance.

H Alexander Smith (R-NJ) said Sun 'day he was convinced there was ino "goof by the government at all in the polio vaccine distribution x program. "I think what 'goofed'-if you want to use that expression," he said, "was the situation that de veloped when the Cutter vaccine apparent trouble came up." Vaccine made by the Cutter lab oratories was ordered withheld from use after some children in oculated with it developed polio. Smith, in a televised interview (NBC's Meet The Press), repeated his belief in the voluntary plan of distribution. But he added that possibly there should be some "stand-by" legis lation to take care of an unfore seen development after Congress adjourns this summer in getting the vaccine to children of parents too poor to pay for it.' Some Senate Democrats have started mustering their forces for a drive for stand-by controls over distribution of the vaccine. "All children probably will get it free before we get through with It," Smith said. . ."They may de cide that's the best way to do it." Smith, a member, of the Senate Welfare Committee, is author of a bill to make the vaccine avail able to the poor Diem Readies Showdown in Sect Fighting SAIGON UH Premier Ngo Dinh Diem's government is ready; for either a political or a military; showdown with the Hoa Hao reli gious sect armies. j The Hoa Hao chieftains, watch-: ing the odds rise against them and; eyeing 20 national army battalions flown to the West, are desperately; playing for time. Generals 'Tran Van Soai and Lam Thanh Nguyen have sent; representatives to Saigon for in terviews with the nationalist Pre-; mier. They are asking to integrate their troops into the national army but according to the government, are exaggerating the number of fighting men at their disposal. A third general the widely feared Le Quang Vinh. better known as Bacut, already had let it be known he is willing to lay down his arms on condition that he continue to rule his territories in the West as though nothing had happened in the past few months.
