the company which owns a Leb
anon timber fabricating firm
Timber Tech said negotiations
are underway lor its sale.
Lewis E. Tippet of the Lawrence
Warehouse company in Portland
said sale negotiations are in pro

not accepting orders for future de

firm now employes about 14S per
sons. ....
Estimates of the property's worth
have run as high as $700,000 but
Tippet said he could not confirm
that figure.
There have been reports that
closure of Timber Tech was im

it appears there is every chance
for success."

nect the TV A system with the
proposed Dixon-Yates steam
plant via transmission line across
the Mississippi river as asked by
the Eisenhower administration.
Democratic critics of the Dixon-Yates
power contract,- which
hs alrtaoy been sealed by the
administration and the private
utility, combine that plans to
build the plant, saw this as a last
opportunity to block the imple
mentation of the contract The
Democratically-controlled House
Appropriations Committee earl
tor hsri mnroved their scheme
to deny funds for the transmis
sion line hookup with TV A.
"National Concern"
Republican supporters of the
Dixon-Yatesi power deal brought
the issue to a head on the House
Door last Thursday when debate
neared a voting climax on the
big public works construction
money bill. They moved to re
verse the action of the Democrats
on the . committee and approve
the power plant tiein.
The Dixon-Yates contract is a
matter of national concern," de
clared Rep. Natcher (D-Ky.),

struction of TV A, but the same
situation will apply to Hells Can

Rep. Hallock (R-Ind.), GOP
Door leader, roared back a few
minutes later that "you people
have done very well down there
(in TV A country) compared to
the taxpayers of the rest of the
country, and I might suggest that
is might not be too wise to ride
a good horse to death. Possibly
you are afraid the gravy train is
running out"
Broad Scope Cited
Rep. Jones (D-Ala) had a quick
appeal to the "rest of the coun
try" "This immediate proposal
ioes not confine itself just to
TV A. There is a larger question,
the question of whether or not
the people, through their govern

management of the TV A, Bonne-
House Raises
Government
Workers' Pay
WASHINGTON 1 The House :
voted overwhelmingly Monday to
raise the pay of more than one
million classified government work
ers Vh per cent The Senate has
passed a 10 per cent boost. '
The bill now soes to a Senate-
House conference committee to
compromise the difference. Many
House members said they expect
the final figures to be 8 per cent.
There was no direct indication
of how big a pay hike President!
Eisenhower would approve, al-j
though both figures were higher j
than the 5 per cent he recommend- j
ed. In Monday's brief debate, Rep. !
St. George (R-NY) said a 7 per
cent bill would be signed into law.
As voted by the House, the in-'
crease would cost an estimated
325 million dollars a year.
The vote on the pay raise was
370-3. with three Republicans
against it Reps. Taber of New
York, Mason of Illinois and Vursell :
of Illinois.
While there was no floor fight
over the' amount of the boost, Rep.;
Moss (D-Calif ), who led an unsuc- j
cessful fight in committee for an ;
8 per cent hike, said his forces j
were counting on a compromise j
at that figure.
Moss reminded the House that
Congress voted itself a 50 per cent
raise and gave career military ,j
personnel incentive pay raises
ranging from 6 to 23 per cent
The measure would apply to i
