-Gray said today.
He told a house committee
that how it's done through
creation of a Columbia Valley
Administration or some other
way is for congress to decide
He said he did not believe that
creation of a CVA was the only
way the basin can be developed
But for himself, he added, he
felt that the CVA was the best
approach.
Under any circumstance, he
went on, "I urge that without
delay and for the interest of na
tional security this great pro
gram to develop the Pacific
Northwest go forward."
Testifying before the public
works committee, which is con
sidering a bill to set up a CVA,
Gray said the army long has
been seriously concerned with
the need for full development of
the river basin, and added:
"It is essential to national de
fense that the hydroelectric po
tential of the Columbia river and
its tributaries be fully realized
and developed as soon us practi
cable. The power of the Colum
bia is needed far aluminum pro
duction and for atomic produc
tion." He said the growing indus
tries of the Portland, Ore., re
gion and of other cities require
effective flood control and that
the river's navigiation possibili
ties must be expanded.
He praised the work of the
army engineers and the reclama
tion bureau in the basin but
said their plans are not a sub
stitute for CVA.
The need remains for an eco
nomical and efficient admin
istration mechanism, such as the
CVA," he said, "for carrying out
these plans, after thev arc ap
proved by congress."
Under questioning. Gray said
he would be opposed to strip
ping the army engineers of their
civilian functions tnd that he
did not believe military person
ned could be assigned to aid the
CVA.

Polio Cases on
Upgrade in U. S.
I By the Associated Pressl
Infantile paralysis cases show
ed a sharp increase in some
states in the last year, boosting
the nation's total far ahead of
1948, a near record year.
The number of polio deaths
for the first seven months of
1949, an Associated Press sur
vey showed, is about double the
total up to Aug. 1, 1948.
The survey showed approxi
mately 8,000 cases and 442
deaths. However, data on fatali
ties was sketchy and incomplete
in some states on the number of
cases.
The 27,(180 polio cases report
ed in 1948 were the second high
est of record but up to Aug. 1,
1948, the total was under 5,000.
The worst polio year was 1916
when about 30,000 cases were
reported.
Increases in the number of
cases over last week's figures
were reported in New York, Illi
nois, Indiana, Michigan, Min
nesota and Wisconsin. The 1,123
cases in Texas did not include
the number stricken in the last
week in July.

Indian-Made Articles Will Be
Exhibited in Bank Lobby
Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Schlegeter, 510 North 24th, have an out
standing display of Indian-made articles, and have been invited
to display them in the lobby of the Salem Branch of the First
National Bank of Portland.
Among the articles is a model
of the Lummie reservation,
modeled, to his best recollection,
after the one he was most
familiar with as a young man.
Julius is now in his 90s.
When questioned about the
very small opening for a door
Julius explained:
"Had to step over like a log,
then bend way down to get in
. . . Bears smell salmon in house.
Can't come in. Hole too small."
There were no windows in the
long house, which was large
enough to accommodate 50 or
60 families. The opening in the
roof let in light while letting out
the smoke from the cooking
fires indoors. The rains of the

moisture. When the tank cools off at night, this
moisture condenses into water. THIS WATER
CAUSES RUST AND CORROSION IN YOUR
GASOLINE TANK, FUEL LINES, FUEL PUMP
AND CARBURETOR.
What damage does rust do? 1. Rust ruins gas
oline tanks and other fuel system parts, causing
costly repairs and replacements ... 2. Rust clogs
fuel lines, screens and carburetor jets, causing
rough idling, poor mileage and loss of power and
performance ... 3. Rust particles cause wear on
precision parts in fuel pump and carburetor, caus
ing frequent costly overhauls and replacements.
How does Richfield gasoline prevent rust?
It contains RD-119, which covers the inside of
your car's fuel system with an invisible, rust-proof
coating.
