Witnesses said the plane came In with its wheels up but William Farris of Seattle, pilot of the plane, told Byrd a visual check of the landing gear and lights on the plane's instrument panel indi cated the wheels were down. Byrd speculated that a malfunction in one of the landing gear systems may have caused the gear to re tract just before its final approach. Salem pilots said that if the air port had a control tower in oper ation the pilot could have been told by radio that the wheels were up. The plane was no severely dam aged. It will probably be repaired at McNary Field and flown to a CAA overhaul base at Santa Mon ica, Calif., for final repairs, Byrd said. Two persons were in the plane with the pilot. They were John E. Bowen, co-pilot, and Robert Schweitzer, radio operator, both of Seattle. None of the plane's oc cupants was injured. Another CAA plane arrived from Los Angeles Wednesday to replace the damaged Seattle plane and continue its instrument checks at airports in the district. 4 H'tiwi '-i-w 'h Tferijitii'iif - - ....

Oregon GOP Supports Proposed Support of a proposed regional power bill, now before a U.S. Sen ate committee, was given "in principle" by Oregon's Republican Party, it was announced this week. The bill, supported by Democrat ic Sen. Richard Neuberger and written by public power advocates, would set up a , regional power corporation to map out a plan of building and allocating power gen erating programs. Major elements of the Repub lican party in Oregon in the past have opposed most power bills fa vored by public power interests. James F. Short of Salem, GOP state chairman, explained that support is being given in "bi-partisan spirit" after "exhaustive re search by highly capable and in formed individuals" on the party's Oregon Power Policy Committee. Pc Patio Package mm mm wsxd "MiD ,KI1 fjT Special Traffic Committee to Compare Adequacy Of Basic Speed Law With Specific Speed Limits The adequacy of Oregon's pres ent basic speed law, as compared with specific speed limits now be ing proposed in some quarters, will be studied by a special com mittee of the Oregon Traffic Safe ty Commission. The committee was named at the safety commission's meeting Wednesday. The proposal for the study came from Attorney General Robert Y. Thornton. Oregon . now has no specific speed limits, the basic law re quiring only that driving speeds take into consideration the density of traffic, the condition and con tour of the road, and the weather, among other factors of safety. Committee Named The committee, as named by James Johnson, director of the Department of Motor Vehicles, in cludes John Nichols, representing Forms Studied For Civil Service Off-Dury Work A meeting of Salem Civil Service Commission Wednesday at City Hall dealt with technicalities of ap plications which city civil service employes must fill out when seek ing off-duty jobs. City personal director Donald Hitchman indicated that details of an outside work program will be ironed out within the next two months. Approximately 60 per cent of all city police and firemen have been given tentative approval to work on off-duty jobs. These jobs must not consume more than 60 hours a month nor interfere with city du ties. WOMAN BURNED Eunice Powers, 2465 Adams St. SE, was treated for first degree burns of the hand and forearm about 12:30 p.m. Wednesday at her residence. First aidmen said she spilled hot grease while cooking. She was advised to see a doctor. Power Bill The Republican statement was sent to Sen. Neuberger who will participate today in a hearing on the regional power bill before a Senate committee. In the Republican viewpoint a regional federal power corporation would plan, develop, generate, transmit and wholesale hydro electric power in the Northwest. It would supplement existing agencies, Short said, and not re place any agency other than the "temporarily" established Bonne ville Power Administration. The program would not, envisioned Short, eliminate "healthy compe tition" between private and pub lic power groups. The bill was authored by Gus Norwood, head of the Northwest Public Power Association. All 4 Pieces $49 Just $1 Down $1 Per Week . Buy Them Separately at These Low Prices! or .
