Solon Raps Nixon
For Umbrella Altitude
Washington (U.R) Rep.
Arthur Klein of New York "on
behalf of the umbrella industry
of New York" has taken Vice
President Richard Nixon to task
for his attitude toward umbrel
las. Nixon banned umbrellas at
National Airport when Presi
dent Eisenhower returned, in
the rain, from his Geneva con
ference. He said the umbrella
had become '"the symbol of ap
peasement." Klein said in a floor speech
yesterday that Nixon's comment
was "unfortunate." There ( are
3,000 people employed in the
umbrella industry in New York,
Klein said, and it has been
tough enough on ,them this
year, what with no rain at a'l,
without Nixon making it stiil
tougher. r
The New York Democrat as
sured the House that the um
brella is simply an indication
that the carrier wants to keep
dry during a rainstorm.

Coon said the department'of
interior and the bureau" of the
budget will prepare reports on

The proposed dam was de
scribed by Coon as rising 170
feet above the river bed. It
would provide 153,000 acre feet
of reservoir capacity.
