Reds1 Request
Poses Problem
London, March 31 Pi The
British government has formally
notified Russia that she cannot
agree to1 a Soviet, suggestion that
the Warsaw Polish government
be Invited to the San Francisco
conference.
The Soviets had suggested to
Britain and the United States that
the Warsaw Poles be asked to the
conference if a new provisional
government had not been estab-
llshed by that time.
A foregin office spokesman said
the Russians have been advised
v x, tfrat the Soviet proposal "is im--i
$ 5Jssible."
I The gist of our answer," he
J said, "was that Lublin cannot be
i Invited to San Francisco, in our
' .opinion."
' He did not know whether the
United States and China, to whom
' the Russians addressed similar
notes with a request for a prompt
reply had answered Moscow.
Poses New Problem
The Soviet request confronted
lne "big three" with a trouble
some new problem even while
they were discussing the number
of votes each should have at the
San Francisco conference.
Both the Polish provisional gov
ernment, originally set up under
Soviet auspices at Lublin, and the
rival Polish exile government in
London have demanded seats at
the conference.
Both the United States and Brit
ain recognize only the London re
gime, but they have stood by the
Yalta decision that only a recon
, stituted government of national
unity uiawji iium uuin lacuons
uld be invited.

Rhine Test Spans
Built on Columbia
Rufus, Ore., March 31 (IP) Ger
mans and Americans were equally
astounded when the army engi
neers speedily built a floating
bridge across the Rhine to hasten
the break-through toward Berlin.
It can now be told that this little
hamlet on the Columbia river
near The Dalles, Ore., was the
"guinea pig" area, where the en
gineers developed their technique
in spanning a major river.
The countryside along the Co
lumbia closely resembles the
Rhine. The engineers set up a
camp when they got orders last
August to devise a bridge strong
enough. to carry 45 ton M-26 tanks,
yet be mobile enough for field
troops to transport over rough
terrain under .battle conditions., .
. . .. French Engineers Aid
Month after month the engi
neers toiled. They were aided by
a French engineer who was fa
miliar with the Rhine country and
an American bridge builder with
experience over the Rhone in
France. The normal 60-foot pon
toon was cut in two to make for
easier handling. A new connect
ing divide was perfected for the
pontoons.
Lt. Col. G. S. Witters finally
was satisfied with this crew's
work and said it would take only
seven hours to cross the Rhine
with a bridge capable of support
ing 54 tons. The test bridge had
cost $34,000,000 but Col. Witters
said "we have developed the best
type of floating bridpe in the
world ... we expect it will do
a job in passing American armies
across the Rhine on their way to
Berlin."
The day came for the epochal
crossing of the Rhine. There were
estimates the allies would bc
lucky to bridge it in 3G hours
under fire. But the practicing on
the mighty Columbia paid divi
dends. The bridge went across in
around seven hours and heavy
tanks and equipment sped over to
the consternation of the defenders.
Free fishing lessons for 10 to!
14 year olds, a fishing contest
with prizes for the largest fish
in three divisions .and regular
educational entertainment for
youngsters over a six-weeks per
iod were highlights of a program
outlined last night by a group of
Bend sportsmen headed by Wil
fred Jossy.
Under the sponsorship of the
Deschutes County Sportsmen's
association, and with the cooper
ation of the state police and for
est service, the novel program will
be designed to foster sportsman;
ship in the coming generation
of anglers, and at the same time
provide them instruction in bet
ter fishing methods. '
The junior group will be formed
as' a Junior Sportsmen's associa
tion with regular membership, its
own by-laws and officers, under
the guidance of members of the
Deschutes County Sportsmen's
association,
Instruction in the proper meth
ods of tying lines, and leaders,;
placing sinkers and bait, casting
flies and lures, observing the
rules of fire prevention and the
written and unwritten laws of
sportsmanship is planned.
Divisional committees under
Wilfred Jossy as general chair
man will be headed by John
Wetle, Wm. H. Harris, Ralph
Crawford of the forest service and
Sgt. Lowell L. Hiftzel of the state
police. '
- A six-weeks course is planned,
and the cooperation of local
school authorities is promised by
Howard George, superintendent
of city schools. Classes on stormy
days will be held in the high
school gymnasium, or other suit
able quarters.
Should the venture prove suc
cessful it will probably be expand
ed in future years 'to include
other age groups.

children, $738. -

vice only. Of these, 49 stemmed
from the selective service board,
15 were children's cases and the
remaining three required investi
gation for other agencies.

assistance purposes in May re
ceived official sanction from the
group which included: W. C. Coy
ner, chairman; Miss Olive Jami
son, Mrs. B. A. Stover, O. W.
