Federal Control
Of Natural Gas
Would Hike Cost
Washington U.R) The Joint
Committtee of Consumers and
Small Producers of Natural Gas
said today rigid federal regula
tion Of natural gas production
would cause gas prices to rise by
stifling competition.'
Former Mayor Alex M. Clark
of Indianapolis, committee chair
man, said the newly-formed com
mittee supported a controversial
bill that would exempt inde
pendent gas producers from di
rect federal regulation.
''The big Eastern gas utilities
are trying desperately to deceive
the public into believing that
fantastically high prices will be
forced on gas consumers unless a
bureaucratic stranglehold
is maintained on the producers,"
Clark said in a statement.
Measure Defended
Sens. A.S. Mike Monroney (D
Okla.) and Andrew F. Schoeppel
(R-Kan.) both from gas-producing
states, heatedly defended the
measure against an attack from
Sen. Alexander Wiley (R) of gas
consuming Wisconsin.
In a speech yesterday before
groups opposing -the bill, Wiley
urged the public to send the Sen
ate an "avalanche of protests"
against the "evil" bill. He said
chances are it will be approved
by the Senate unless there is a
"blizzard of protest."
Schoeppel fired ' back in a
statement that Wiley was merely
echoing earlier charges by "the
eastern utilities lobby." He said
the - measure offers full protec
tion against the "fantastic"' gas
price increases predicted by
Wiley.

E-R Commission
Retains Lawyers
Portland 'CU.R The Exposition-Recreation
commission, fac
ing a court fight over selection
of the South Auditorium site for
Portland's E-R center,' today en
gaged a legal firm to help the
city attorney's office in defense
of its position.
'. Meanwhile, a preliminary pe
tition for an initiative to restrict
construction of a center to the
east side of the Willamette river
was filed with the city auditor.
The South Auditorium site is on
the west side of the river.
The firm of Mautz, Souther,
Spaulding, Denecke and Kinsey
was retained by the commission.
Comissioners found that three
of the five had been served sub
poenas to appear in court Thurs
day. All five commissioners and
the city of Portland were named
in an action filed by Joe Dob
bins and "all other taxpayers"
of the city. The action seeks to
enjoin and restrain the commis

tract or expending any money
to construct a center at the
downtown site until the ques
tion can be resolved finally
through a suit.
