Portland (U.R) Plans of
three non-federal power agen
cies to impound water in Canada
to create greater power genera
tion in the United States are
now under study by five federal
agencies.
In a joint announcement, Col.
L. H. Foote, North Pacific di
vision engineer, and Dr. William
A. Pearl, Bonneville power ad
ministrator, said the non-federal
the plans are being considered
by the Army Engineers, the Fed
eral Power Commission, and
three Interior Department agen
cies BPA, the Bureau of Rec
lamation, and the Geological
Survey.
Washington Water Power
Company Kaiser Aluminum
Company and Puget Sound Util
ities Council all are eying Brit
ish Columbia sites for water
storage at Mica Creek Arrow
Lakes and Kootenay Lake. .
If the plans materialize, after
winning Canadian approval, the
resulting stream regulation
would increase United . States
power production downstream
on the Columbia and would alr
so provide increased flood con
trol benefits. "

iw.m in WashrnErtnn ' D.

of both countries and "of both
federal and non-federal groups.

Edinburgh, Scotland (U.R)
James Martin, officially "dead"
for 10 years, wanted to go home
to his "widow" Saturday but
she was so upset on hearing he
is alive that she refuses to let
him enter. '

some of his p r e-w a r invest

ing a Nazi air raid.'
Working for Army
"I was working for the United
States Army as a security guard
in a camp near London one night
when there was an air raid,"
Martin said. "I decided not to go
home and my wife must have;
decided I was dead.
' "For two " weeks I slept in
parks and air raid shelters.
Bombing was going on all the
time. Maybe my mind became a
bit unhinged. I was in a horrible
state of nerves and decided to
chuck it and get away from it
all.'

Wife Obtained Decree
His wife thought he was dead
and obtained a court decree mak
ing her a widow. But when she
went to ' collect money from
Martin's investments she was
told that he had appeared the
previous week and collected it
himself: ' v
" The puzzled woman went back
home and on the following day
received a letter from Martin
asking that he be allowed to re
turn to their house.
His letter explained that the
Ministry of National Insurance
had contacted him about her
claim for a widow's pension and
that he did not realize he had
been declared legally dead.

Attack on Army's
'Atomic Cannon'
Albuquerque, N. M. (U.R)
Sen. Clinton P. Anderson (D-
N.M.) Saturday renewed his at
tack on the Army's "atomic
cannon" as "a foolish invention,
a sitting duck for 600-mile-an-hour
airplanes."
Anderson, who returned here
from Washington Friday night
for a brief vacation, said he
plans to continue objecting to
wholesale adoption of the can
non "until others start to ques
tion it too."
The New Mexico senator
charged Friday in Washington
that the new super cannon is
more useful as a parade show
piece than as an instrument of
war. .' ! -
World War I Concept
"The concept of the atomic
cannon - belongs to the first
World War," he said. "But we
are hot going to be fighting War
I or even World War II. The gun
is defenseless by today's stand
ards."; He said a second world war
type . bazooka could knock it
out.' He added that atomic ex
perts consider the cannon shell
a 'wasteful form of using fis
sionable material." '
Anderson charged that the
Army's "insistence on develop
ment of the , atomic cannon up
set t h e "unbelievably" good
teamwork" of the 'Los Alamos
Atomic laboratories, the Sandia
Special weapons base and Kirt-
land Air Force base here.
