Speaking of President Eisen hower's new power policy while visiting in Portland yesterday, Reynolds said, "if the policy re sults in expansion of power pro duction, it's good. If it doesn't, it's bad." Company Needs Mora Power He said more power is what his company needs. He wants to expand in the Northwest, but said a power shortage is block ing that.

But he said thus far BPA has refused to contract for firm electricity to assure the production. "It wasn't really BPA's fault. It was the best assurance of power they could give us at that time," he said. Trucking Firms Announce Merger Oakland (U.R) Officials of two of the West's largest trucking firms.
