Alcohol Plant To Be Leased Washington, Sept. 23 UP) G. W. Trayer, chief of the research branch of the United States for est service, said today the ser vice hopes to keep the $3,000, 000 Springfield, Ore., alcohol plant in operation through leas ing it to a new company. The plant, constructed by the government, makes alcohol from wood waste, recently was turn ed back to the government by the ' Willamette Valley Wood Chemical company. Trayer said he understood the company has mailed to the forest service here its release from the provision of its old lease giving it a right to pur chase the plant. "When we get the release we will be free to negotiate with others for operation of the plant," Trayer said. "The recon struction finance corporation, which financed the plant, can not put up any more money and it will undoubtedly turn it over to the war assets administration for disposition." "We hope the WAA will grant a long time lease to a new com pany and are negotiating with two of them now. "The new company will have to be able to put $250,000 capi tal investment to make improve ments in the plant and have an other $250,000 to carry it until it begins to produce alcohol. We figure that the latter could be accepted in lieu of rent un til the amount is repaid, but $500,000 is all that will be re quired." Trayer said he believed the WAA would agree to negotiate a long time lease on the plant ra ther than sell it and said he be lieved the plans to keep the plant in operation will work out.

Purchase was authorized some time ago but owing to a clause in the deed when the property was platted after being owned by Frank Durbin, the deal hung fire for a number of weeks This clause specified that a school house could not be built unless at least 50 percent of the owners of contiguous property agreed. This was finally accom plished. The cost of the land was ap proximately $7500 and, accord ing to C. C. Ward, the district's business manager, it is not con templated to build there im mediately. The property in vilved has a west frontage of 265 feet on Elma avenue and 400 feet along Durbin avenue to the south.

Rightists Win Italian Election Rome, Sept. 23 VP) In the first test of public opinion since Premier Alcide de Gasperi dropped leftists from his cabi net last June, a right wing coali tion called "the list of the roos ter" swept a local election Sun day at Caserta, the interior min istry announced today. Nearly complete returns show ed that the rightist coalition comprising qualunquists, mon archists and liberals polled 7, 493 votes to 3,187 for de Gas peri's Christian -mocrat party and 3,650 for the peoples' block communists and minor leftist groups. The rightist total was swelled even more by another group of liberals and monarchists which got 1,909 votes on a sep arate ticket. These election results were announced as the communists and socialists prepared to ask the constitutent assembly for a vote of no confidence in the de Gasperi cabinet. Debate origi nally had been scheduled to start on the motion today, but was postponed until Friday at the request of the qualunquists, who are holding a national con vention. There was no visible break in the ranks of the center and right by which de Gasperi main tains his grip on the government, bu responsible political quar ters expressed belief the debate would last perhaps a month during which the extreme and moderate left would explore ev ery phase of the government's domestic and foreign policies while maintaining heavy pres sure outside the assembly.

Sewer Rental Continued from Page 1) During the past year the city engineer again took up the work of completing surveys and esti mates completing them in time for inclusion in the report sub mitted last night. A new allocation of the amount the state of Oregon will contribute as a share of the con struction of the interceptor sew er and disposal plant will be made, the amount of money de rived to be applied to the re tirement of the bonds, if the bond issue is approved by the voters. 20-Year Bond The proposal bond will be 20 year serial bonds dated January 1, 1949, optional after 1954 and bearing two percent interest. It is proposed to retire the first three years of principal and interest with tax money and the remaining 17 years with sewer rental, or any combination of the two methods that require ments dictate. The city manager explained that if an additional unit to the sewage disposal plant becomes necessary in the future, it might be necessary, due to the 6 per cent limitation provision of the constitution, to pay principal and interest from tax derived money for a period of about three years and utilize the sew er rental receipts to cover the costs of constructing the new unit. Members of the city council, on motion of Councilman Dan Fry, complimented City Man ager Franzen and City Engineer Davis for the comprehensive re port prepared and Indicated that consideration of the recommend ations would begin at the next regular meeting of the coun cil.

ThreeTornadoes Continued from Pae 1) The storm's most acute men ace apparently hung over the rich Okeechobee mucklands where the inhabitants already struggled 'wearily with relent less water from earlier down pours. Farmers, business men. Jamaican laborers and convicts worked side by side to patch can al dikes and stay the rising wa ter from four towns and 30,000 vegetable acres. The towns in danger were Belle Glade, Pahokee, Canal Point and South Bay centers of the money-making truck grow ing industry. Lakeland, 50 miles inland, re ported 55-mile winds at S a.m. Squally rains swirling 250 miles from its center were felt inland. Miami had sustained winds of 38 miles an hour and frequent heavy rains throughout the night. West coast cities also experi enced heavy wind and rains, but some points had barely enough wind to sway the palm trees. Church Building Brings Opposition Construction of a frame church building on the north west corner of Capitol and Hood streets by the Gospel Taber nacle congregation brought an avalanche of protests from resi dents of the area at the city council meeting Monday night. Robert A. Golden, who led the opposing forces, told the council that they were not op posed to the church Itself, but , felt that its construction would aid to an already aggravated traffic situation. 'It isn't safe for our children to play outdoors any more" he said. Mrs. Mable C. Hart declared that there are already two churches in the same area and if the additional church build ing is erected "it will be next to impossible for any of us to cross Capitol street." Rev. Max Wyatt, pastor of the church, contended that a traffic problem confronts every section of the city and held that "God's work should not be retarded because of a traffic problem." The council took the matter under advisement. Mary B. Reynolds, Educator, Dies 111 for the past four years, Miss Mary E.
