FOOTTEHT MZBTORB (OREGON MAIL TRIBUKE Monday, November 8 1854 Knovland To Halt' Washington U.R) Senate Republican leader William F. Knowland ureed drastic action todav to nrevent hot trigger Russian pilots from v- gunning more American ' planes : out oi the sky. ' - ' He said -the United States should order its 7th Fleet to rrark down on Soviet Diaries that molest American - aircraft over international waters in the Far East. He said U. S. Air Force pilots in the area should also do "more shooting" back. : Knowland recalled ; that he urged a diplomatic break with Russia following the last Diane- shooting incident Sept. 5. There will be no such, affairs, ne saia, if the United States "does not do more than merely send notes to Moscow." :; . : ; t The - State - Department dis patched a sharp protest ,to the U. S. embassy - in Moscow late yesterday for delivery to the Soviet foreign office. Although the contents were not revealed, it was ,-. presumed the United States asked for an explanation and demanded damages. - v In the past, this country has nix times - demanded compensa tion from Russia and other Com munist nations for attacks on American and other allied planes but not a . cent has been paid.

Wilson said he regretted that one of the American airmen died, but he declined further immediate comment. . Serious Matter : Sen. Richard ' B. Russell (D Ga.), who is slated to be chair man of the Senate Armed Serv ices - Committee, viewed the shooting as "a serious .matter." Sen. Bourke B. Hickenlooper (R Ia.) said the attack "demon strates the hostility of the Rus sians to any sort of cooperative peace in the Asia area." Two other Senators demanded positive action. Sen. Everett M. Dirksen (R-Ill). said "We must make it manifest to the Soviet Union that this sort of thing must stop forthwith." And Sen. John J. Sparkman (D-Ala.) agreed that, "Every step must be taken to let the Russians know we will not tolerate such actions; whatever is necessary to get that acrossto them we must do." France Will Not Send Diplomat to Germany Paris U.R) France refused Saturday to send a diplomat to Germany next week to reopen negotiations on the Saar but an nounced that some points of the historic, pact between the two nations still must.be settled.' - A French foreign - ministry spokesman denied a West Ger man announcement that the dip lomat would go to Bonn and re open talks on the pact , between German Chancellor Konrad Ad enauer and French Premier Pierre Mendes-France. - The spokesman said neither chief of cabinet Jean Marie Sou tou nor any other French diplo mat would go to the West Ger man capital, as Adenauer had in dicated Friday night. But the spokesman said it had always been agreed that certain points in the Saar accord still had to be completed. Councilman Refuses Check on Montreal Montreal, Que. GJ.R) City Councilman John Lyall had the last word in a dispute over the financial trustworthiness of him self and the city of Montreal. "You may go bankrupt," a clerk . explained when the city refused-to take Lyall's $200 elec tion deposit check. . Lyall won the election and was handed a city of Montreal check when he came to get back his deposit. - "That's no good," Lyall said. As, far as I know the city of Montreal is a lot nearer bank ruptcy than I am." . . Lyall said he would wait for cash. Johnson, Knowland Pledge Cooperation Washington (U.R) Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson and Republican Leader William F. Knowland promised Saturday that they will work together in "the closest type of cooperation" to insure a smooth change-over of party control next January. The Texas Democrat who will succeed Knowland of California as majority leader in the 84th Congress, also pledged that the Democrats will not stir up a "cold war" with the Republican administration. But he said it is up to President Eisenhower how well things work. "If there is a cold war, the Democrats are not going to pro voke it," he said. Johnson and Knowland met at a private lunch . to discuss organization and procedures for the' new Senate. They told re porters afterwards that they had "pretty well agreed" on such matters as distribution of com mittee seats. - Man Brought to Medford To Receive Treatment ' Henry Kahl, 52, Grants Pass, was admitted to . Sacred Heart hospital at about 6 p.m. Satur day for treatment of head and neck injuries, according to attendants;' Local state police said Kahl was involved in an, accident north of Grants Pass on Highway 99 and brought here by a Jose phine county ambulance.

Fer guson was defeated for re-election Nov. 2. . : (International) Non-Farm Work Higher in State San Francisco U.R) The U.S. Department of Labor an nounced today that non-farm employment in California, Wash ington, and Oregon increased 94,500 in September, owing to the end of the lumber strike. The . number of persons em ployed in non-farm industries was 5,162,000 in the three states, according, to the department's Bureau of Labor statistics. The figure includes about 53, 000 lumber workers on strike in July and August who returned to work in September. . "The residual increase of 41, 000 fell about 25,000 short of the normal seasonal increase be tween mid-August and mid-September," the bureau reported. Compared with September a year ago, employment last Sep tember was 96,000 lower.- California, with a total of 3, 194,000 and representing three fourths of the employment on the coast, added 29,000 over the previous August. Oregori rose 29,000 to 485,000 and Washing ton 36,000 to 763,000. ; Limit on Liquor -Permits May End ' Portland J(U.R) The limit on the number of liquor dispensing licenses issued by the state may be lifted by the 1955 legislature, according to' State Sen. John Hounsell of Hood River. Hounsell yesterday told mem bers of the Oregon Dispensers association here that "a liquor license hasn't proved the bonan za people thought it might be, and I think the lid has served its purpose." ' The state senator said the part of the liquor law setting a ceil ing on the number of licenses might be modified, or lifted- en tirely. Hounsell was a member of a panel which discussed Oregon's liquor laws at the ODA meeting. Others in the discussion group included Rep. Orval Eaton of Astoria, Sen. Elmo Smith of John Day, Rep. Pat Dooley'of Portland; Representative - elect Dick Groener of Milwaukie and George (Woodward of Portland, attorney for the Oregon Liquor control commission. ; The average man, earning $4, 500 annually, is required to work two hours and 40 minutes per day to pay his taxes. where) For Long-Range Savings Plans .. .

Main Medford "Where You Are Paid to Save" Stakes Tremendous In Peacetime Race For Atomic Pover Washington (U.R) Peace time atomic power is on the way, but . . . . ' . , The experts don't know when it will arrive. They do a lot of guessing. Five years, 19, 25. But they don't know. They don't know which coun try will get economy atomic power first the United States, Russia, Britain, possibly France. The stakes are tremendous. One pound of uranium, cost ing $10 to $20, packs the energy of 1,500 tons of coal costing about $ A.000. Palmer Putnam, consultant to the Atomic Energy Commission, estimates "usable" coal and oil reserves will be gone in 70 years. By "usable" he means fuels that will produce power at no more than twice present prices. , Atomic Fuel Plentiful :. But radioactive fuels, uran ium and thorium, are abundant enough to last at least 175 years, according to Putnam's calcula tions.: :.. So, on the theory that man will do whatever necessary to get energy, for his gadgets and industries, experts believe atom ic power certainly is on the way. But the atom is obstreperous. It does not give up its energy easily. The ' engineering diffi culties of harnessing its forces both safely and economically are enormous. Program Started The atom has been ' put to wqrk in submarine engines. But they are cost-no-object military projects and shed little light on the economics of peacetime power. There will be no useful cost data in this country until five experimental atom power plants now being built have been in operation for 'some time. The plants are being built under a $200,000,000 five-year program launched recently by the AEC. The first, designed to produce about 5,000 kilowatts of electric ity, is expected to be in opera tion in 1956. A much larger one, expected ta generate more than 60,000 kilowatts, will be com pleted in 1956. AEC - Chairman Lewis L. Strauss believes, "Our children will enjoy in their homes elec trical energy too cheap to meter." , " Atomic energy already has produced what Strauss and oth ers call "incalculable" peace- time benefits for man. For ex ample, radioactive research ma terials, a byproduct of the U. S. atomic project, have brought sci ence closer to solving the mys tery of how plants transform sunlight into food. If that secret ever is finally broken, the A- bomb will have redeemed it self. . " . But the big payoff . will be atomic power. Because this coun try is rich, temporarily,- in coal and oil, gas and water, it lacks the economic incentive of some other countries for pushing nu clear energy development. That is why some authorities believe Europe may win the atomic power race.
