TUESDAY. JANUARY 24, 1950 THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON PAGE ELEVEN Rayer Outlines Plans for Power Developments Washington, Jan. '24 (IP) Dr. Paul J. Raver, Bonneville power administrator, said today that the Pacific Northwest laces seven more lean years before its power supplies catch up with demand. "It will be 1957," Raver said, "before we are really out of the woods and able to furnish every body with the power that they want to do the kind of a develop ment job that ought to be going on in that region." . A house appropriations sub committee published his testi mony in support of a $47,250,000 budget request for BPA. Raver said the administration also needs $21,750,000 In contract authority. He ran into little opposition from the sub-committee, most of whose members seemed to feel Raver has done a good job. That includ ed Rep. Ben Jensen, R., Ia., who nevertheless expressed fears that "Wall street financiers are get ting Iheir hooks in the people of your area." "The fight I have had up there," Jensen said, "is where these Wall street bankers go in and furnish money to buy out private utilities at greatly inflated prices and put them into tax-free systems un der the public utility district set up. Dancer Seen "It is more dangerous than the old Insull monopoly system be cause the government is going to take full control and the people are soon going to have nothing to say if "Flash" Myers and this bunch of Wall street money changers are not stopped. Rep. Henry M. Jackson, D Wash., said the public utility dis trict was "a matter of pure local control." He said it was the right of local citizens to decide whether they wanted to buy private facili ties and form a PUD. He did not want Jensen's state ments "to stand in the record." Raver listed these nine major transmission line construction jobs ahead of BPA in the coming fiscal year: Grand Coulee, Columbia No. 3; Grand Coulee-Midway, No. 3; Grand Coulee-Spokane No. 5; Hungry Horse to Hot Springs to Anaconda; Coulee to Columbia; Coulee-Snohomish No. 2-Coving-ton; McNary-Big Eddy-Troutdale and McNary- Detroit -Albany; Maupin-Klamath Falls-Goshen. Safety Seen in New Speedometer Silver Creek, N.Y. IB Develop ment of a new automobile speed ometer device may help cut down the country's traffic fatality toll. A gadget which constantly pro iects in brilliant illumination the changing reading from the dash- ooard speedometer to a tiny metai screen on the windshield has been put into production by the Silver Creek Precision Corp. The dime sized screen, named the ulow meter, is fastened approximately two Inches below the drivel's nor mal line of sight. The relatively inexpensive ac cessory is hailed by the concern's president, Lawrence Schmitt, as "the first basic improvement m the instrumental indication of speed since the advent of the mag netic speedometer decades ago." "The automobile driver now can keep his eyes on the road where they belong at all times, and still know his exact speed," Schmitt wiLm ..'-vKH Mrs. Roosevelt Sees No Need for U.S. Action in Formosa Portland, Jan. 24 ilPi Mrs. El eanor Roosevelt planned to fly to day to Ann Arbor, Mich., after a United Nations speech and inter views by Portland's leading news papermen. Snow made the exact hour of her departure uncertain and Mrs. Roosevelt said she doubted she would return to the wintry Pacific northwest before spring. She was interviewed yesterday by Marshal Dana, editor of the Oregon Journal's editorial page; Philip Parrish, editor of the Ore gonian's editorial page;. Donald Sterling, managing editor of t'.ie Journal, and Robert C. Notf.on. managing editor of the Oregon ian. . Mrs. Roosevelt said she approv ed the United States' foreign pol icy in regard to China and that U. S. interference In China's in ternal affairs would damage our "integrity in the Pacific". The talks were held in the Ore gon Press club and recorded for broadcasting over KPOJ Wednes day at 8:30 p.m. "If we went into China, we'd go without allies," she said. Mrs. Roosevelt referred to a resolution passed by the United Nations gen eral assembly certifying respect for China's Integrity. "The resolution included For mosa as part of China, and our interference there would make the Pacific peoples nervous," she said. On Russia, Mrs. Roosevelt said Russian diplomats lacked finesse in their dealings with western representatives. She said the Rub- . sian iron curtain would be lifted when the Russia people demanded enough "things" to force a rais ing of the standards of living and the formation of economic rela tionships between Russia and the outside world.

Dennis, Dallas, Tex., city em ploye, for the recovery of bis partial dental plate from a downtown manhole. Simpson lost the denture when he inad vertently sneezed too hard and too close to the hole. Comic Book Diet Fatal to Monkey Wheeling, W.Va. ir A comic book caused the death of Tojo, Wheeling zoo monkey. It wasn't the funny pages that killed him with laughter but part of the metal binding. Some wire staples were found in the simian after zoo officials were told the animal had been munching at a comic book a boy tossed into his cage. Several years ago, a monkey died from eating a mirror. Drink More Milk, Old People Told Buffalo, N.Y. ilPi Elderly peo ple as well as new-born infants need their daily quota of milk. . Research scientists of the Cor nell agricultural experiment sta tion say that many older people drink too little milk, when they should be consuming more to help overcome a "negative calcium bal ance." "More than 99 per cent of the calcium in the body is stored in the bones, so the continued loss of calcium as indicated by nega- a Unbalance means loss from the I Bones," the researchers said in a report. "There seem to be several rea sons for the trend toward a nega tive calcium balance during later life," the report said. "Some upset in the endocrine balance seems to speed up loss of calcium from bones during old age. Some forms of calcium seem more difficult to absorb during the last third of life than during the middle third." Every quart of skim milk con tains about half an ounce of ca sein, a substance with many uses from making textile fiber to ce ment and paint.
