Apr. 3 (U.R) A big power shortage may develop in the Pacific northwest during the next three or four winters, the Booneville power administration warns. Bonneville engineers have es timated that a low-water year could bring a deficit of as much as 260.000 kilowatts. E. R. Hoffman. Seattle city light company official, said the law of averages could easily bring a dry year before sufficient additional power plants can be set up to offset the possible shortage. He said Saturday that by 1953 or 1954 Bonneville power will be equipped to handle electric needs regardless of wnter condi tions, assuming a full-scale work on federal power plants continues. m il HOMEWARES Real Progress on ilitation of Indians Reported Washington, Apr. 3 U.F The bureau of Indian affairs re ported today that during fiscal 1949 real progress was made toward economic rehabilitation of the nation' 400,000 Indians.

Crrrf Smmre Pan Smurm Pmm (Cmver ttU Electric Eye Used to Spot Foreign Matter In Medicine By Paul F. Ellis United Press Science Editor New York, Apr. 3 (U.R) A new "electronic eye" is now be ing used to inspect medicine and keep out foreign substances that may injure health. The "eye" has proven far more effective than the human eye, which can and does make mis takes, sometimes as a result of strain or fatigue. Delegates at tending the annual meeting of the American Drug Manufactur ers' association at Boca Raton, Fla., last week saw the new "eye" in action for the first time. Developed by RCA The device, developed by sci entists of Radio Corporation of America in cooperation with 16 member firms of the A. D. M. A., is being used primarily to deter mine foreign substances in tiny glass vials known as ampules which contain such as insulin, morphine and other drugs. The federal food and drug ad ministration has strict regula tions that the vials be free of particles, and up to now the drug manufacturers had to depend on human inspection. The new device used a beam of light coming from a projection bulb. The ampules are fed into the machine and as they are ex posed to the beam the vials are whirled. If there are no particles in the vial then the beam of light goes straight with no de flection. Such a straight beam of light operates a photo-elec tric tube which in turn oper ates a mechanism that passes along the vial as "accepted." t Beam Uellected However, if there is a particle no matter how tiny the light beam is deflected. It strikes an other photo-electric tube and that tube sets off the mechanism that kicks out the vial as re jected. The vial is held in place until a second, and sometimes a third inspection, has been made. One device can test about 3.000 ampules per hour. The ma chine unlike a human inspect- Are You Happy Club Invades Congress President Joe Neil of Med ford's Are You Happy club, re ported today that three vice presidents of the unique organi zation are members of the Unit ed States congress.
