I Eugene Sewer Report Filed (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) j River. They should be of suf i ficlent size to accommodate popu- latlon which will eventually and i logically be served, says the re ,i port. ; Construction of a proposed in l terceptor on Franklin Blvd. should ! be undertaken simultaneously with planned state highway develop . ment along that thoroughfare, ' says the report. Building of an j Amazon interceptor was recom i mended for construction of a unit by unit measure, as funds permit. Most of the other recommended I improvements, it is maintained, will depend upon installation of 1 the proposed interceptors and i should be undertaken in accord- ance with need and available i money. J It is advised that sewage dls J charge Into the Amazon should be ,1 discontinued as soon as possible. Improvement and enlargement of , the Amazon channel is listed as of t foremost importance. Storm sewer '' development in the low Amazon t area, however, is recommended to i be held In abeyance until comple ' tlon of channel improvement, I gprlnsfleld Sewage t "It is possible to convey Sprlng- field sewage, either to the site of l the proposed Eugene treatment i plant," the report reads, "or to a large trunk sewer in Eugene by 'l gravity flow." Further studies ' are recommended to determine .1 feasibility of such a plan. From j an overall point of view of pro- ,1 tectlng the Willamette from pol I lution from the Eugene-Sprlng-I field metropolitan area, however, the engineers declare the plan has J merit. ,1 A low lift, high-capacity pump ;' lng station on the Polk St. outfall i) sewer would make it possible to I prevent the Willamette flood water j from backing into the sewer sys i tern and help materially in pre I venting flooding of basements In j the business section, it is pointed l ' out.' -i Recommendation is also made ;j for an emergency overflow at the I lower end of the Franklin Blvd. j interceptor for diverting excess j atorm water into the Willamette. I Another diversion can be made at j or near Sixth Ave. and High St., j It is maintained. ,i Elimination is recommended for J the existing bypass from the com- blned system into the storm sewer 1 at Franklin Blvd. and Agate St., which discharges into the mill I race. t Storm Water Diversion Diversion of excess storm water 'j into the Willamette during flood i periods will not cause serious pol j lution, it is maintained, because of the dilution afforded by the river at such times.

Friendly Hall, on the University of Oregon campus. He Is well-informed on controversial problems In respect to Latin-American relations. The talk, sponsored by the University Lecture Committee, will be open to the public. (Wiltshire engraving.) drainage area within the city are declared of secondary importance. The proposed Polk St. outfall pumping station would Increase the effective carrying capacity of some of the trunks of the com bined sewer system and simplify the plan for more rapid removal of storm water from certain streets of the area. . Discharge of organic industrial wastes into the sewer, increasing measurably at the present time, should be controlled by city ordi nances, it is advised. ' The city should build a sewage treatment plant, it is suggested, which will provide for "intermed iate" treatment during low water period, although "primary" treat ment will suffice during the re maining seven or eight months of the year. USSR Rails At Canada (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) Soviet authorities," the Russian government said in a statement broadcast over the Moscow radio. The statement ind cated the in formation concerned radar and atomic energy. At the same time, the statement said, Russia deemed It "necessary to can attention to the campaign, hostile to the Soviet Union, which which has started in the Canddlan press and radio. The postion taken up by the Canadian government is directed toward the encourage .rnent of this campaign In the press and radio. It is not compatible with friendly relations between the two countries." The statement, later handed to the Canadian charge d'affaires in Moscow, asserted that fhe Soviet military attache In Ottawa was recalled as soon as "the above mentioned activities of certain members" of his stoff became known to the Russian government, because of the "inadmissibility" of those activities. The statement said tho Soviet ambassador and other members of the embassy in Canada had "no connection whatsoever with the matter." Ichecking inflation." v Ellsworth said the "off-again on-again" citrus fruit price ceiling orders in the past holiday season were a propaganda gesture, de signed to show what would hap pen if ceiling prices were removed. The representative de clared that the plan backfired, that studies made by the Repub lican food study committee showed it did nothing but disrupt the citrus industry and bring about slightly higher prices. The House Banking and Cur rency Committee now Is conduct ing hearings on the extension of the OPA law, which expires at the end of June. Rumor Other Changes Ellsworth reported that "rumors of other high-level changes are rampant," following Harold Ickes' resignation as Secretary of the Interior. If Paul Porter, Federal Communications Commission chairman and political adviser to the administration, is moved to OPA, he really is "being kicked upstairs on his way out," the congressman declared. Postmaster General Robert Hannegan, Ells worth said, is none too fond of Porter and probably will attempt to maneuver him out of office. Administration forces, Ells worth claimed, constantly are fighting for increased spending, which is just as constantly being opposed by Republicans, who are fighting for reductions. Appro priation bills are being taken up on the House floor, he reported. The Case "anti-strike" bill never will become law in its present form, Ellsworth predicted, because in the Senate it will either be pigeonholed " by the Senate Committee on Labor or will be revamped and changed I beyond recognition. The bill, Ellsworth commented, "supposedly is contrary to the best interests of organized labor. It certainly is contrary to the wishes of labor leaders. Their idea of legislation is to have no legis lation at all." CAR CATCHES FIRE City firemen made a run at 8:29 a.m. Thursday to 1917. Frank lin Blvd. after a fire had broken out in a car in a repair shop. The blaze had been extinguished, how ever, before the city equipment ar rived, but not until it had spread to another car. Both were consid erably damaged but can be re paired. Firemen called at 1197 Olive St. to subdue a flue blaze in the home of Charles O'Dick at 7:03 p.m. Wednesday. Earlier they traveled to the home of Stanley R. Darling at 1723 Alder St. to investigate a smoke scare. OPA Adjusts. Lumber Prices (CONTINUED FROM iPAGE 1) ber orders after V-J Day and other measures for lumber trade restoration. For example, a year ago boards were an urgent mili tary need. The government ap pealed to West Coast sawmills to produce boards above all other items, although our mills are not equipped for this product. The OPA increased board prices to offset the additional costs of saw ing boards. Prices on unwanted items were not raised, but were generally decreased. These items were mainly 'yard lumber,' the kinds used in every day building construction. "Those wartime blocks have continued to shut off any large flow of every day building lum; ber in normal trade channels. During the war the average West Coast mill could not produce them without risk of serious loss. That risk remained after V-J Day and with enlarging lumber' pro duction costs it was no longer a risk but a certainty of loss.' "The new prices for certain es sential items of home-building lumber will encourage West Coast mills to take normal risk in ef forts to supply their old friends and customers in the retail lum ber and building construction fields. To sum up, the new prices are an adjustment from a wartime lumber price policy designed to stimulate production on some items and discourage it on others, to a policy of fro. . lanormal,balancAP0Uctil litems, and h !5uti witn wages."
