o 0 SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tuesday, January 10, 1955 y Neuberger, Morse Permit for Project on Mc W ould Revoke enzie River By A. ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington Oregon's Sens Richard L. Neuberger and Wayne Morse Monday jointly introduced a bill designed to revoke a license issued by the Federal Power Commission oi Eugene Water and Electric Board for its proposed Beaver Marsh project on the scenic up per McKenzie river. Both senators contended that the 30,000 KW hydroelectric project would not justify the damage . claimed would be in flicted on the natural wilder- ness beauty of the upper Mc Kenzie area. - The FPC granted a 50-year lie- Oense to Eugene late last fall after rejecting protests filed by the Save-the-McKenzie River Association. Neuberger and Sec retary of Interior Douglas Mc Kay also registered their opposi tion to granting the license, but the Interior Department itself did not oppose it. Against Exploitation o "Every generation of Ameri cans must decide whether ex ploitation of a natural resource is more advisable then preser vation of that resource," Neu berger told th Senate Monday. As We Live By ELIZABETH HUtLOCK. PH.D. Insist That Your Husband Assume Responsibilities The only way every member of a family can get his or her share of-the family income is by a carefully worked out bud get that is fair to all. (Q) "My husband makes good money but we are hopelessly in debt. I am trying the best I can to keep our budget down by buying only the food we must have and by patching my old clothes. I have two little children and I make clothes for them from my Dr. Hurlock husband's old shirts and pajama lops. But they have no warm clothes so they cannot go out doors lo play. The other day, my husband went out and bought a new suit, blazer, and pants for himself. The payments are due on our car, but he still drives around in it on gas he gets on his credit card. He is out every night while I sit at home all alone, as the children go to bed early. The other night, I suggested' I wanted to work to help him out like I did before the children came. He said if I wanted to go to work, I could pack and not bother to come back. I am desperate and don'l inow where to turn for help." " T.C. (A) First of all, insist that your husband trork out with you a budget that will give you enough money to buy the clothes you and your children need. You must also allow enough for the right kind of food for growing children. Then, set aside enough to meet the payments on the car and the cost of its upkeep. If your husband's income is not sufficient for this, insist that he sell the car. Unless he meets his payments, what he has put into the car is taken from him for nonpayment of installments. Other Woman Suspected It sounds very much to me as if your husband were using the money he should be spending for you and the children on another woman. Otherwise, why would he be out every night, driving a car, and buying clothes for himself whei? his family is improperly clothed. If he refuses to budget his income fairly, take the matter to a domestic relations court, and let the judge settle the prob lem for you. With young chil dren to take care of, you should not go to work when your hus band is capable of supporting you properly. See . that he as sumes this responsibility. (COPYRIGHT 1956, GENERAL FEATURES CORP.). ''Sometimes we decide that rec reation must give way to com mercial exploitation. But at Beaver Marsh on the upper Mc Kenzie I believe every logical argument dictates the protection of scenery and recreation, and definitely against exploitation. In this crowded and turbulent age, we have all too few realms where mankind can escape from the turmoil of civilization." Government officials, advised of the Neuberger-Morse bill, said they knew of no precedent for the action the senators propose. Congress, however, clearly has the power to override the FPC, which it established. But it never has done so, so far as FPC of ficials can recall. Instance Recalled An FPC attorney said he re called an instance in which a bill was introduced similar to the anti-Beaver March measure aimed at revoking the license for a New England power pro ject, but Congress failed to en act the bill. On other occasions Congress has rescinded the authority of the FPC to issue licenses on specific rivers, but this occured before any licenses were issued. How far along the Neuberger Morse bill may go through con gressional channels remains to be seen, but several favorable conditions exist to match the unfavorable. First, the bill will probably be sent to the Senate Public Works Committees, of which Neuberger is a member and where he could consequent ly have greater leverage in get taing it approved. Second, with Democrats in control of both houses, the two Democratic sen ators may be able to gain speedy action on the bill if they push it. Shrould Retain Natural Beauty Self Classifying Ball Mill Discussed Home construction of a self classifying ball mill was among subjects discussed at a meeting of the Northwestern Mining council recently. A ball mill with a one ton per hour capacity being built by J. H. Lemley from scrap metals at an expected cost of $200 was described. . M. A. Puckett, Crescent City, Calif., reported on core drilling as a guide to mining methods, and George Maxwell spoke on basilic formations in the local area. Other subjects discussed by the group included a course in basic chemistry and geology; discovery of additional deposits of Uranium bearing xarnotite ore in Lake county; formation of a mining organization in Cave Junction, and preparation of a mineral display at the Southern Oregon Historical society mu seum in Jacksonville.

(U,R) Maybe Little Bo Peep didn't have it so bad after all. Jacob . Benz re ported recently that 76 head of sheep had strayed from his farm here. fell CHILI -18&f Slow-Simmered :brReal Home-Ktehen Flavor "It is well for us to remember the lesson which Switzerland learned long ago. That little nation in the Alps realized that such resources as magnificent vistas and wildlife, left untram melled by commercialization, could gain far more for Switzer land financially than any amount of exploitation or destruction of those resources. The Swiss have been able to develop nec essary hydro-electric power with out abandoning this priority. In the long run, Oregon communi ties will suffer adversely, if we sacrifice the McKenzie's tourist trade assets." Neuberger took a crack at the Eugene Water and Electric Board itself for opposing gov erment construction of the high Hells Canyon dam, which would provide power without "peril to wildlife and scenery" while pro posing the Beaver Marsh project which he said "would shut off and on, like a spigot, the ma jestic Koosah and Sahalia waterfalls." Lineman Survives Jolt by 20,000 Volts Springfield, Ore- (U.PJ A 32-year-old Springfield man who received a 20,000 volt jolt was recuperating in a hospital here today. Elvin M. Adams, Springfield, a Pacific Power and Light re pairman, received the voltage Sunday afternoon when attempt ing to splice a supposedly dead line south of Cottage Grove. He was treated at Cottage . Grove and brought here for hospital ization. Adams was working with a crew repairing flood damage to power lines when the accident occurred. He suffered third de gree burns on both hands and both feet, and internal injuries. Koreans Assured US Expansion Planned Seoul OJ.R) Adm. Arthur W- Radford assured worried South Koreans today the Unite ed States will use atomic wea pons to meet any new Com munist attack on their war-battered country. He added, however, that he considers new Red aggression unlikely. The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff made the atomic statement to newsmen during a helicopter tour of the front line. He is believed to have re peated it to President Syngman Rhee and Defense Minister Sohn Won II when he conferred with them later in the day. BIKE BILL Waupaga, Wis.
