First Surcharge
Suit Dismissed
Portland f) A suit against
power company surcharges has
been dismissed by Circuit Judge
G, F. Skipworth in Lane Coun
ty, a Portland attorney said
here Thursday.
It was a suit against the
Mountain States Power Co.
Still pending are Portland
suits against two other power
firms.
Attorney Walter Evans said
he was notified Thursday of
the suit dismissal. Evans repre
sented three Lane County
householders, asked return of
$580,000 in surcharges and an
injunction against future sur
charges. The power company levied
surcharges, ranging up to 20
per cent of the monthly bill,
for several months in 1952. The
company said the surcharges
were needed to cover costs of
steam production in a low-water
period.
Evans said Judge Skipworth
ruled his court could not take
jurisdiction.

Woman Tells
Of Slave Camp
Camp Friedland, Germany
VP) A 35-year-old German
woman from a Soviet slave
labor village in Siberia (aid
Thursday she bad seen 120
men shot down because they
dared lead a strike against the
Russians.
Brigitte Gerland, arrested In
Dresden in 1848 while a free
lance journalist, said she had
been sentenced to five years
hard labor by a drumhead
Soviet tribunal without ever
being told why.
Her five years expired in
1951, but she was not released
then. She was freed this week
and entered West Germany.
She said that after a brief In
terview with Soviet secret po
lice in Dresden and the rapid
fire passing of sentence on her,
she was shipped to a slave la
bor area at Workuta, inside the
Arctic Circle in Siberia.
No actual prison camps ex
ist at Workuta, she said, but
Soviet soldiers form a ring of
steel about it, leaving slave
laborers to move in compara
tive freedom in the guarded
zone. More than 80 per cent of
the workers at Workuta are
Ukranians, she added.

Washington W) Sen. Know

Senate Republican Policy
Committee may study a change
in subpoena rules, but he de
clared there is no GOP move
afoot to curb the scope of in-
vestigaitons by Sen. McCar
thy, R-Wis.
Knowland, the Senate ma
jority leader, said in an inter
view the policy group may
look into the wisdom of re
quiring approval by a commit
tee quorum a fixed number of
members that varies by com
mittees before issuance of any
subpoena for witnesses or doc
uments. This issue was raised last
month when Chairman Velde,
R-Ill., acted alone in signing a
subpoena for former President
Truman to testify before the
House Un-American Activities
committee in the Harry Dexter
White case. Truman refused!
to honor the subpoena, not be
cause of the way it was issued,
but on the ground that Con

Albany An ordinance call

may be introduced to the Al

Don Sissel, retail division

He stated the chamber is anxi

provides for licensing of all
peddlers, whether or not they
are residents of Albany.
Such a provision is necessa

is to be considered non-discriminatory
by the court.
The ordinance is designed,
Sissel said, to discourage ille

Bars, restaurants, theaters

Tariffs ranged from "no cover"

celebrated in at-home parties.
The devout crowded into
