'Lingering Doubt' Seen That Coon Knew
What He Was Proposing for John Day Dam
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Washington (Special) The
g respective debate between Sen.
ichard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.)
and Rep. Sam Coon (R-Ore.) on
the question of Coon's John Day
dam "partnership" bill was born
Jn the mind of Neuberger along
ide a lingering doubt that Coon
really knew what he was pro
posing for the big Columbia river
dam. '
It all began many weeks ago
when a lobbyist at Salem for one
of the private power companies
Washington (U.R) Rep.
Bam Coon (R-Ore.) said Satur
day the administration has en
dorsed his bill for partial fi
nancing "of John Day dam on
the Columbia rirer by private
capital.
A Budget Bureau report on
the bill, he said, says it is in
accord with the President's
program and would "provide
a means of increasing the sup
ply of hydroelectric power in
the Pacific Northwest." '

he said Congressman Coon had
delivered in Congress that day

in conjunction with introducing
the John Day "partnership" bill.
As It turned out, Coon hasn't
made the speech that day or in
troduced the bill. Over a week
later, however, he did make it
on April 21 and unveiled the
new John Day proposal. Simul
taneously in Portland, officials
of three utility companies, Pa
cific Power and Light, Portland
General Electric and Washing
ton Water Power, announced de
tails of the scheme under which
they would put up the cost of
the power investment in the
rnulti-purpose project as provid
ed in Coon's bill.
The highly complex bill and a
section-by-section analysis, to
gether with Coon's speech, were
handed out to reporters here by
a representative of one of the
power companies, indicating

pared by the congressman from

When Neuberger came out
against the new "partnership"
bill, Coon struck back with a
prepared statement in which he
called Neuberger and Sen. Wayne
Morse (D-Ore.) "Oregon's keep
away senators." He charged the
Democrats, who want the fed
eral government to build John
Day, with trying to block con
struction of the project "to use
it as a political issue in their
1956 campaign."
Neuberger became convinced
that Coon wasn't the author of
his own press releases but was
having them written for him,
which led him to wonder
whether Coon knew what he was
talking about concerning John
Day dam. He decided the way
to find out was challenge him to
a debate.
"It seems to me the public is
entitled to facts and not to
epithets and name-calling," Neu
berger told Coon in a letter bear
ing his challenge.
When the Pendleton junior
chamber of commerce and the
Ontario chamber jumped in with
invitations to both lawmakers,
and both accepted, the debate
was set. Coon suggested one res
ervation and if the bill has
been enacted into law by fall, it
will be a moot question for pub
lic debate. Even the congress
man concedes, however, that it
would take a miracle to speed
it through both chambers before
the summer adjournment. No
hearings have been held yet on
the bill in the House, and no one
has introduced it in the Senate
where Neuberger and Morse
have vowed to fight it.
When Neuberger suggested
mat it iooKea like coon was
trying to dodge his challenge,
Coon declared: "I'll be glad to
meet him anytime, any place, at
any crossroads in eastern Ore
gon." Neuberger, who writes his
own speeches but doubts that
Coon does, said he was gratified
that the prospects are good for
the face-to-face debate being
held.
"We'll get him out in the mid
dle of the ring, away from his
handlers, and then see how he
does," declared Neuberger.
Both Coon and Neuberger say
their debate will be limited to
the eastern side of the Cascades,
the -district Coon represents in
the House. All the state needs
to complete the picture would be
a western Oregon series of de
bates between Morse and Rep.
Harris Ellsworth (R-Ore.).
Ellsworth came out punching
at Morse and Neuberger even be
fore Coon, calling their hard and
fast stand in behalf of federal
power development a "reaction
ary" attitude. He, too, is spon
soring a "partnership" bill for
Cougar and Green Peter dams
which is opposed by Morse and
Neuberger. Though they often
exchange political potshots
through press releases, Morse
and Ellsworth have never debat
ed face-to-face.

Pruett on Meteorites
By J. HUGH PRUETT
Astronomer. Extension Division

Several years ago while listen
ing to a radio talk on meteorites
by the late Dr. Clyde Fisher of
the Hayden Planetarium in New
York, I heard this noted scientist
say that people from all over
this country sent to his staff
specimens which they wanted
identified as meteorites. "You
should see the collection we got!
Folks send us the darnedest
things you can imagine."
During the past 23 years I
have been "running the mete
ors" over a few far western
states for Dr. C. P. Oliver of the
University of Pennsylvania and
president of the American Me
teor society. Through these years
I have likely received fully 1,
000 "suspected" meteorites. All
are always carefully inspected
and tested. If they show the least
likelihood of being "the real
thing," they are sent to national
experts for further checking.
Only four (0.4 of 1 per cent)
were meteoritic.
Two Misplaced Pieces
Of these four, two were mis
placed pieces from the noted
meteor crater in Arizona, nu
merous specimens of which are
extant. Another was a further
find of the Sam's Valley fall.
Only one was brand new. This
was the one found by Jerry Best
at Washougal, Wash., on July 3,
1939, the day after the daylight
meteor roared over Portland,
Oregon, and caused so much con-

sternation among the residents
of that city.
My ' collection of "suspects"
surely resembles that received
by Dr. Fisher. The most common
material received is lava. Almost
as numerous are clinkers from
fires where the air supply has
not been sufficient in some parts.
The clinkers especially are full
of holes and are extremely light
in weight. The senders are cor
rect that both'types seem to have
encountered great heat. Many
are reported to have been seen
falling in flames from the sky.
Pieces of granite are often re
ceived. Garnet schist, obsidian,
petrified wood, basalt, shale,
thunder eggs and various iron
oxides are quite common.
Real Meteorites Different
Real meteorites are very dif
ferent from any of the above
mentioned materials. When
freshly fallen, the thin charac
teristic "fusion crust" is quite
evident. This is usually dark in
color. The few seconds the ob
jects spend in the atmosphere,
where heating by friction takes
place, are sufficient only to melt
and sear the outer surfaces. The
interiors are usually not af
fected. Meteorites are never light and
porous, but are solid and heavy.
There are three distinct types.
The metallic meteorites are an
alloy of iron and nickel, the
iron greatly predominating. If
the dark crust is removed, the
interior metal has a. silvery ap
pearance. Stony meteorites are
silvery grains of nickel-iron
showing abundantly in a cut and
polished face. The intermediate
type, the stony metal, is the
rarest and most beautiful of all.
A cut face shows a sort of honey
comb network of silvery nickel
iron in which are embedded
crystals of olivene of striking
colors.
