Southern Bauxite May Be Shipped To The Dalles Plant o Portland U.R) A plan to ship South American bauxite up , the Columbia river to The Dalles for making aluminum was an nounced yesterday by the Harvey Aluminum company which plans to start construction of a S44.000,000 reduction mill 'at The Dalles by May of this year. . f , ..L. A- Harvey, vice-president c(fe) the company, said that the plan to bring bauxite from South America would not be under taken at least until The Dalles facilities were completed. It is estimated that it will take two years to construct the reduction plant. The process proposed by the Harvey company ould utilize natural gas which will arrive in the Pacific Northwest this sum mer.; . The proposed move would be the first fully integrated proces sion of ore to metal ingots in the Pacific Northwest if it is achieved. V Harvey said that problems re lating to the Columbia shipping channel between Portland and The 'Dalles were now being studied along with the amount of natural gas that would be available. The Columbia channel prob ably would have to be deepened, a project that once was author ized but allowed to lapse due to the lack of tonnage to war rant the expenditure. The method the Harvey com pany proposes to employ in re ducing the ore is the Alcoa-Bayer process, which employs thermal heat. QMost of the bauxite used in' the r?orthwest now is brought " by rail from Arkansas or shipped from Carribean islands.

Club presi dents come up via rank board of governors, V.P. and the like. The. only "graft" Frank has received so far is a S5 check for attending a dinner meeting of the" club's Building corporation. The dinner also was free. But Frank left a fat tip. And he thinks he'll frame the check.

A reporter took a look at the script and asked: "You're not going to read all of that, are you sir?" "Of course I am," said the wheel. "How else do you expect me to find out what's in it?" Margaret Moran, who writes a column for the United Mine Workers Journal, has a St. Pat rick's Day recipe for fruit salad. "Prepare," she says, "mixed fruit and top with a slice of apple tinted green, or with can ned pear that has been cut with a shamrock cutter and tinted green. To color either fruit, add a few drops of green vegetable coloring to the canned fruit juice and allow the fruit to stand about two hours." Barnee Breskin, the maestro all the big shots.

Humphrey (D-Minn.) said today that President Eisenhow er's new atomic disarmament plan is essentially sound but that the administration still lacks an "overall constructive disarma ment policy." Humphrey referred to the plan unfolded by Mr. Eisenhower in a letter to Soviet Premier Niko lai Bulganin which was made public Tuesday. The President told Bulganin that the United States would agree to ban future A-bomb and H-bomb production if Russia would help establish a satisfactory arms inspection system. Mr. Eisenhower's letter dealt only with the disarmament prob lem and brushed aside the Bul ganin proposal for a 20-year U.S.-Russian friendship treaty. This left open the possibility of a later note from the President to Bulganin on the treaty if he deems one necessary. Extensive Questioning A Senate Foreign Relations sub-committee headed by Hum phrey called Chairman Lewis L. Strauss of the Atomic Energy Commission and Director Theo dore C. Streibert of the U. S. Information Agency to testify to day on disarmament. . Strauss faced the possibility of extensive questioning on Mr. Eisenhower's new proposal. Mr. Eisenhower himself was expected to elaborate on his pro posal at his news conference to day. Mr. Eisenhower's proposal re ceived a favorable reaction in Congress. Chairman Walter F. George (D-Ga.) of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee praised the President for a "very good statement" and an "ap proach ... of temperateness and conservatism." Right Direction Sen. H. Alexander Smith (R N.J.), a member of the foreign relations group, said the pro posal "is another step in the right direction, and I hope the Russians will move along with us." Sen. Clinton P. Anderson (D N.M.) predicted .Russia probab ly would reject the President's plan on grounds that the United States .has a larger existing stockpile of nuclear weapons than she does. . While Humphrey, welcomed Mr. Eisenhower's proposal, he said "there is still a lack of pro gramming and overall construc tive disarmament policy in the administration." He said his sub committee wanted to work "with the administration toward dis armament policies that are agree able to both the Congress and the executive branch." Bomb Threat Closes School at Prineville Prineville (U.R) Two bomb threats, telephoned to po lice here, resulted in closure of the Prineville junior high school yesterday and 385 sev enth and eighth grade pupils were dismissed from classes and sent home. The first call to police head quarters was at 8:50 a.m. Offic ers said the voice seemed to be that of a young boy. Shortly af ter noon a second call was re ceived stating only, "At 2 o'clock today Junior high remember." Police Chief Al Perry said that although they believed the call to be a hoax, they could not afford to take any chances. After conferring with School Supt. Cecil Sly it was decided to dismiss school for the remain der of the day. No bombs were found. DOWN Phone 2-7166 7 . nA civE FOUNTAIN SPECIAL Home Made Cake with Ice Cream Now!
