KOHTMCTTORD (OREGON) MAR. TRIBUNE Friday, April 1, 195S 'Partnership' Power Issue Talked By McKay, Others for Senators Washington U.R) Interior Secretary Douglas McKay Wed nesday defended the Eisenhow er administration's "partner ship" policy for development of power projects as a "positive program . . .'that will make a valuable contribution to the power supply of the country In a requested appearance be fore the House Interior commit tee, McKay also said: 1. The administration has no preference between private util ity companies and governmental agencies in selecting "partners" for development of projects. 2. The government will con tinue to use power rates on fed eral projects as an informal "yardstick" to indicate what private rates might be. Democratic committee mem bers questioning him in turn at tacked the partnership policy, Republican members told Mc Kay they agreed with it. He said increasing applications for power development made to the federal power commission by local groups, both public and private, show that local initia tive for power development exists In 1953, he said, the FPC granted permits for plants to produce 1,597,000 kilowatts of power. Trie figure jumped to 5,- 537,000 in 1954 and applications pending at the end of the year would provide 8,166,000. He said the administration is not abandoning construction of plants to turn out "low cost pub lic power . . . but we are aban doning the policy of the previous administration that the federal government alone should devel op all this power." He argued that cower short ages have aeveloped in the two areas of public power Is dominant," the i the 160-acre reclamation land Tennessee valley and the Pacific I limit on eligible projects, he said Northwest Rep. Lee Metcalf (D.-Mont.) told McKay the partnership pol icy allowed only "financially able" groups to join the govern ment in building projects. In Montana, Idaho and other sec tions, he said, government agen cies can't contribute. "That leaves only the private companies," he said. "There is nothing in this pol icy that turns over anything to crivate companies, McKay saia "There is no rjroference. You're seeing things under the bed Washington U.P.) A series of witnesses told a Senate Inte rior subcommittee Thursday that local districts can -build small water projects much more cheap ly than the federal government can. They were testifying in favor of a bill to authorize teaerai grants and interest-free loans to local 'agencies lor projects cost ing less than $5,000,000 and an other to allow interest-free loans for irrigation distribution sys tems of authorized projects. The subcommittee took the nnrfpr advisement. Chair man Clinton P. Anderson (D. N.M.) said the group may vote on them in about two weeks. William E.

Object to Smaller Juimu He said the association wouia object to dropping the limit on projects to $200,000 as proposed committee la&i by the Senate the country "where year. It also objects to imposing put would agree that excess land owners should pay interest costs on water for lands over the limit. Elmer Bennett, legislative rep resentative of the Interior de partment said the agency "ap proves very, highly" the princi ple of local cooperation contain ed in the bill. He said, however. the department' feels that local agencies should make some con tribution to project costs. Howard Stodjard of a Fresno, Calif., engineering firm told the subcommittee that irrigation dis tricts could build distribution systems connecting with the Central Valley Project at savings of 30 to 50 per cent over feder ally constructed systems.

USE MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE WANT ADS FOR RESULTS Phoenix Portland Alleged To Have Advantage In Truck Rates Olympia (U.R) The State Public Service commission "has asked the Interstate Commerce commission permission to inter vene in a dispute over truck hauling rates, alleging Portland had an unfair competitive ad vantage over Puget Sound points. The commission said it want ed to join with the Seattle Traffic A s s o c i a't i on, Seattle Chamber of Commerce, Port of Tacoma and Tacoma Chamber oi commerce to eliminate un just" rates maintained by tome truck lines. The commission claimed the Puget Sound cities were unjustly discriminated against and Port land was unduly preferred under present rates. The cities and commission wanted a parity of rates with the Portland area into eastern Oregon: southern Idaho and Utah, or an advantage in rates to eastern Washington, northern Idaho and Montana. The commission said Portland enjoyed a substantial advantage in rates to southern points and a parity to the eastern Wash ington and northern Idaho area. the same time focusing attention on the necessity for more public knowledge about the disease. William B. Feldenheimer, i-ortiana insurance man, is chairman of the crusade in Ore gon, and he has pledged his or ganization of volunteers to the "most successful crusade in the Oregon division's history."

' "It is up to the public to stand behind these scientists, many of whom are making personal sac rifices to continue their work," the chairman stated. s He pointed out that cancer re search has increased consider ably in post war years. Prior to 1941, Feldenheimer revealed, not more than a million dollars was available from all sources for cancer research, while today more than $15,000,000 is avail able annually from many sources including the American Cancer society.

Inc.. Hair and scalp &pe cialists, exploded the "myth of baldness" today in an exclusive interview. "Baldness is unnecessary, cost lv. and a plague to mankind,' savs Green. "No man need be bald. No man need suffer the stigma of premature old age that is forced upon him because he is losing his hair. The Rogers method of hair and scalp treat ment can prevent baldness can turn colorless fuzz into healthy, growing hair can make you look youthful agam. Demonstration To Be Held in Med ford. Ore. This revolutionary method of home treatment for the hair and scalp will be demonstrated in Medford, Ore., Sunday ONLY, April 10 at the Medford hotel Trichologist J. F. Blevins will conduct the private, individual interviews from Is noon until 9:00 P. M. on Sunday ONLY. There is no cost or obligation, and you need no appointment. Reason For Baldness "There is always a reason for baldness," continued this na tionally known authority. "Hair cannot grow through a scalp that is infected with dandruff, excessive oiliness. or extreme dryness. A scalp that has never been exercised cannot be ex pected to produce healthy hair." Men, and yes, women too, walk the streets today, completely devoid of nature's greatest or namenthair. Simply because they were not taught the basic rules of hair and scalp hygiene while they were growing up. "The simple answer." empha sized this expert, "is that chil dren should be taught the same simDle basic rules of hair and scalD hygiene that they are taueht for the proper care of their teeth. If this were the case baldness would be a rarity to day!" Heredity Not Involved - Trichologist Green dodged no is sues. He quickly took up the most widely spread theory of bald ness heredity. "Mankind's un realistic belief that baldness is hereditary stems from a misin terpretation of the theory of genetics. Theory does not state that any person must be bald because baldness exists in the family. What it does say is, that in some families a tendency ex ists towards an undernourished scalp. The purpose of the Rog ers Hair and Scalp Clinic is to teach the methods of strengthen ing the weak scalp and nourish ing it to a healthy, vigorous con dition. "A healthy scalp will' grow hair if it is not already completely paid," assures Green. Is There Hope For The Completely Bald? In his travels "throughout the united states and Canada, Green has collected hundreds of testimonials of his ability to de velop weaic fuzz into healthy, mature hair. All of his clients have started with private exam ination, hair and scalp analysis and a diagnosis of the disorder. Green is quick, however, to tell a hopeless case that he cannot be helDed. "We strongly advise." says Green, "that no person who is completely bald hold anv nope wnatsoever of regrowing nair. u mere is any fuzz at all, we can restore a healthy scalp condition and the hair will grow normally again as nature intended." Offers A Guarantee "Rogers. Inc.. America's Fore most Hair and Scalp Specialists, offer a guarantee to any client wno enrolls for treatment. If he or she is not comnletelv delimit ed with results at the end of 30 days, the monev invested will be graciously refunded," pledg ed Green. "We must have satis fied clients. We must reerow hair.
