Fish Counting
Operations Halted
Portland U.R) Army engi
neers reported today that they
have called a halt to fish-counting
operations at Bonneville
dam for the 1954 calendar year.
Ivan Donaldson, fish biologist
for the Engineers, said counting
was suspended by agreements
with the states of Oregon and
Washington and that this is the
customary time to stop 'the
count since there are so few fish
migrating up the Columbia.
Counting at McNary dam, un
der the jurisdiction of the Walla
Walla district of the Corps of
Engineers, will come to a halt
at the end of Tuesday's count
ing. Fish counting will be re
sumed at Bonneville March 1.
Unofficial totals for the year
found steelhead and blueback
runs good, Chinook runs not so
good, the silver run bad, and
humpbacks, with a total of four,
average.
The Chinook total was 320,
945, as compared with the 16
year average of 358,152 from
1938 to 1953. Blueback totaled
130,181, compared with 98,663;
steelhead 176,254, compared
with 142,021.
Only 3988 silver salmon were
tallied as compared with an
average of 8474. There were

Silk Stocking
Portland (U.R) Two men
with women's silk stockings ov
er their faces were lurking in
side Walt's Supermarket here
when employees reported for
work today, but they fled when
one wqrker dashed outside to
summon police. ' :
One of the masked men was
reported carrying a sawed-off
shotgun. " r
Police said no one apparently
had been robbed.
Meatcutter Art Krieger, who
ran to a nearby restaurant to
call police, said the men were
crouched behind the meat coun
ter when he came in. Krieger
said the men herded the em
ployees toward the front of the
store and he managed to slip
through the front door to go
for help, v
The employee said the men
had forced their way into the
store Hhrough the roof, using a
rope to reach the floor.
Barge Owners Seek
Legislation Support
Salem (U.R) Barge owners,
supported by representatives of
truck lines urged the Oregon
Development commission here
today to support legislation giv
ing the state public utilities
commissioner power to establish
and regulate minimum rates on
railroads. -
The barge line owners also'
complained about the tax im
posed upon them by the 1949
legislature, validity of which has
recently been upheld by the
Oregon Supreme court.
The minimum rate law on
railroads sought by its support
ers is the same law which was
defeated by the 1953 Legislature
after shippers had complained
against any regulation of mini
mum railroad rates.
