60P Chairman Hall Thinks
Ike May Run Again After
Conference With Him Today
GETTYSBURG, Pa., (UP) -Republican
National Chairmr
Leonard W. Hall said after a ci
ference with President Eisenhowt
today that he felt "very much e
couraged" about prospects that t
President will run for reelection.
"So far as I'm concerned, ther
is no other candidate," Hall U1
reporters after a 45-minute tal
with the President in his tempo
rary White House office here.
Hall made it plain that tht
President himself did not say 01
indicate what his decision will be
atiUt a second term.
The long private talk with Hall
was Mr. Eisenhower's first admit
tedly political conference since his
Sept. 24 heart attack.
It was also the first time the
GOP National Chairman had seen
Mr. Eisenhower since Sept. 10.
Hall said his optimism about
Mr. Eisenhower seeking reelection
was based not only on the appar
ent good state of the 'president's
health, but also "from his attitude
and his interests in what is going
on interest that goes beyond to
day or tomorrow."
Hall predicted the President will
run in 1956 "if he feels able" and
that he will defeat the Democratic
candidate by a bigger margin
Premier Faure's

I) the world.
The French press wns almost
Unanimous in predicting the fall of
(he Faure cabinet when the Nation
al Assembly votes on his sixth vote
of confidence in as many weeks.
Behind the wave of near-certain
ty of Faure's defeat in the Nation
al Assembly confidence vote was
the announcement of the Commu
nis bloc decision not to support
him. In two past confidence votes
he scraped through only with
Communist support.
Faure journeyed Sundav to'
. Chamblay, in the constituency
which he represents, to make a
"last plea for support in the hostile i
Assemmy. I
Premiers Short Lived
it 2 proposed reforms to make
It tougher for the assembly to fire
premiers. He attacked France's
"merry-go-round of governments"
as a "luxury which we must re
nounce" and raid his failure would
mean his disarmament plan could
not go before the United Nations
this week.
The plan is the one first unveiled
at Geneva. It calls for the bis
powers to cut arms production by
various percentages with savings
used for the undeveloped areas ot
the world.
Tuesday's crucinl vote will be on
Faure's demand that early, elec
t ins be debated before the debate
on general government policy.
The current crisis began sevcra1
weeks ago when Faure demanded
the assembly dissolve itself now
instead of waiting until its tenure
expires In June. Then there could
be early elections.
La'e Elections Demanded
But the Parliament began hag
gline ovr whether the electionr
should be held next month, the
month after or any month right
ud until June. Faure had, urged an
elect'on before Christmas. H i s
arch-political enemy. Pierre M?n
des France, demands late elec
tions.
The Cammunlsts supported
Faure's plea for two main reasons
Elections now would be held under

Hall said he also expects Vice
resident Ricliard M. Nixon to be
'r. Eisenhower's running mate in
)56. He emphasized that this was
lly his personal opinion.
Hall .flew back to Washingto.i
Iter his news conference.
Hall said his talk with Mr. Ei
;enhower covered a variety of
ssues including foreign policy, the
'arm program, prospects for the
?oming campaign, and finances of
he Republican party. He said tne
latter never were in better snap,?.
Hall was second on the Presi
dent's list of callers. First the Pres
ident was seeing Labor Secretary
James P. Mitchell to talk about
"routine business" of the Labor
Department.
The President's conference with
Hall marked another milestone in
his recovery. Mr. Eisenhower in
his own words has been easing
his way back into harness, assum
ing more and more of the arduous
duties of his office. But his work
so far has been official, not politi
cal. '
Politics may be the big news
here most of the week.
The President's scheduled callers
include both House Republican
Leader Joseph W. Martin Jr.,
(Mass) and Senate Republican
Leader William F. Knowln nd
(Calif) who will be here Saturday
for separate conferences on the ap-:
proaehing legislative struggle in
Congress.
White House Press Secretary
James C. Hagerty said he did not
expect I tall to discuss with the
President whether he now feels
able to run for another term.
However, Assistant Press Secre
tary Murray Snyder, in discussing
the conference Sunday, left this
question open. He said he did not
know if the second term question
.would be raised.
Some observers speculated Mint
Hall would not ask the question and
that the President would not volun
teer an answer. It was considered
possible, however, that the two
party leaders might discuss the
timing of whatever announcement
the President may want to make.
If Hall were able to draw any
inferences about the probable do
cision from this he wasn't believed
likely to pass them along.

Appeal Filed
WASHINGTON (UP) The
National Hells Canyon Association
filed a petition today with the U.S.
Court of Appeals asking it to set
ttside a Federal Power Commis
sion order granting Idaho Power
Co. a license to construct three
dams in the Hells Canyon area.
Hells Canyon, on the Snake
River between Idaho and Oregon,
is the deepest gorge on the conti
nent and one of the outstanding
dam sitrs in the Columbia River
Basin. Whether the government or
private interests should develop
ower there has been a controver-l
sial issue for more than 15 years.
An, FPC examiner ruled earlier
this year after lengthy heaings
that Idaho Power should be per
mitted to go p' -ad with construc
tion of one of :s three' proposed
dams, but sa.d decision on the
other two should be withheld until
later. The commission, however.
authorized Idaho Power to go
ahead with all three dams at
spaced intervals.
The National Hells Canyon Asso
ciation favors a single high dam
built by the federal government.

power.
"These two circumstances add
up to a problem in conservation-
yes, a problem in the defense of
fish and wildlife."
Dl'. Meehan touched on various
aspects ot the Coordination Act,
posnea Because sponsmen ana
conservationists throughout the
country were greatly alarmed
.the tremendous damage caused to
fish and wildlife by the construe-,
lion of dams and reservoir pro
jects,
During the two decades prior to
1M6, Dr.- Meehean said, projects
of this nature , dried up fishing
streams and flooded valuable wild
life cover and food supplies. And,
Dr. Meehean added, "much of
such destruction was needless, sim
ply because the construction agen
cies did not give a thought to the:
needs of fish and wildlife."
One of the many resolutions
passed by the group related to the
recent PeKon dam decision of the
supreme court and urged amend
ing federal power laws so that the
federal power commission would
first have to secure permission of
the state when the dam was to be
built on streams wholly within the;
state's boundaries.
Given Commendation
Oregon's state highway commis

support of the league's anti-litter-bug
campaign through distribution
of litter cans along state highwas.

Hinges on
Indian Vote
Special to Hie Bulletin I
WARM SPRINGS The status
of the controversial Pelton Dam
project, under consideration as a
power development on the Des
chutes river in Jefferson county
for nearly seven years, will hinge
on an election to be held Dec. 10
on the Warm Springs Indian reser-
vat Ion.
Indian voters, members of the
Warm Springs tribe, will vote on
whether to enter into a contract
with the Portland General Electric
company, at a speciui election to
be held on that date.
The proposed contract would
grant permission for PGE to put
part of the structure on federal
lands and would bring the Indian
tribe payments ranging from $84,-
340 to $89,340 annually.
An additional $84,000 to $178,000
yearly for the Round Butte project
is also provided, bringing total rev
enue to the Indians to at least
$168,000 yearly and probably not
more than $262,000 each year.

SO Per Cent To Voto
Eligible Indians will vote from
8 a.m. to 6 p.m. at two locations
,the reservations. Thirty per
cent of the registered voters must
cast ballots for the election to be
valid and a majority nust approve
the contract.
The Portland firm received a I
federal permit for the project but.
it was challenged by the state oi
Oregon in a case which went to!
the US. Supreme Court. The high
court recently turned down the
state's appeal.
Ralph MUlsap. vice president of
PGE, said that "assuming the
Indians act favorably on the con
tract, we are planning to be on the
ground with major construction
work by early spring." He said
there might be some minor work
even before that.
Fish Problems HtudlM
Millsap said that along with the
negotiations with the Indians, the
firm has had some contact with
federal and state fish and game
agencies and "It Is our hope that
we will have a fully satisfactory
solution to the fish problem worked
out."
He said the Indians would realize
about $90,000 annually from Pelton
dam and that If the Round Butte
project was built they would get
in the neighborhood of $250,000 an
nually from both projects.
