Slap at Albany
Albany -A. Northwest Pub
lic Power association ouiciai,
Executive Secretary Gus Nor
wood, took a crack at Albany
at a meeting new at ine riv
erside hall and called upon re
presentatives of five w 111am
ette valley counties to leave
the city out of a proposal to
establish a People's Utility Dis
trict in the Willamette area
now served by the Mountain
States Power company.
Norwood said Albany's mil
tation against such a proposal
in past years might once again
mean defeat in a general tiee-
tlon.
Persons from Lane, Linn,
Benton, Polk and Marion coun
ties were on hand at the hall
to elect a five man steering
committee ' and to choose a
name for the proposed PUD.
. The steering committee,
which will be charged with the
responsibility of investigating
the proposal and calling any
other meetings, is composed of
one representative of each
county. Elected were W. W,
Abraham, Linn.; D. P. Larsen,
Lane; George Tate, Marion,
and Oscar' Kendall, Benton.
The Polk county representa
tives declined to name a steer
ing committee member until a
future date.
The proposal for a public
utility district to serve Willam
ette valley residents with pow
er is spearheaded by Abraham,
Shedd and A. C. Heyman, Riv
erside. Abraham was leader
of the group until a temporary
chairman. Harley Llbby. Jef
ferson, was named.
Norwood summarized the
history of the public power
movement. He aaid the pro
posal was gaining strength In
this area because of a 20 per
cent surcharge on electric bills,
imposed by Portland General
Electric, Pacific Power and
Light, and Mountain States.
It is expected that the group
will attempt to get enough
support to warrant placing the
measure before the people in
a general election, November,

temporary victory against the

Fight Over License
Lost by Defendant
Lebanon First round in a
battle to acquit Charles C. Car
ter of Lebanon of driving while
his operators license was sus
pended was lost Monday.
Judge Ruby Moore in munici
pal court denied a motion to
change the 18-year-old youth's
plea from guilty to not guilty,
and fined the defendant $50.
Attorney for the defendant,
Laurence Morley, Indicated
that he would seek further le
gal action by appealing the
case to a higher court.
Morley said the city had
erred in charging the youth,
and contended that it should
have been driving with an ex
pired license instead of a sus
pended license.
The attorney explained that
Carter had allowed his license
to expire last October, and in
December tne secrexary oi
state's office suspended the li
cense. But, said the attorney,
"you can't suspend an expired
license."
