Benson Asked To
Institute Bonus Plan
Los Anceles 'UP Secretary
of Agriculture Ezra T. Benson
has been asked by a livestock
industry spokesman to institute
a bonus plan for emergency
siaucbter of range cows for
drought stricken areas.
Nelson K. Crow', prominent
industry spokesman and publish
er of the Western Livestock
Journal, called for such action
Wednesday in telegrams tn Ben
son and other governmental
agencies.
Crow- urged the Agriculture
Department to dip into its S 1 1 0 . -nOO.000
fund for market support
to relieve conditions in drought
disaster areas. He said the gov
ernment should pay a S20 per
head bonus on all range cows
slaughtered.
The Agriculture Department
has designated 145 counties in
Arizona. Colorado. Kansas. New
Mexico. Nevada. Oklahoma. Tex
as, Washington and Utah as dis
aster areas.
supporter, was much embar
rassed by Stassen's proposal.
Stassen quoted Herter as say
ing that he "'would do wha'
the republican Convention and
the President wanted him to
do."
Supporters Not Identified
He aisn said that private
polls, to which he previously
had referred, had tested the
relative strength of eight pos
sible vice presidential candi
dates and that they showed Nix
on giving the least strength to
the ticket. The eight included
N'ixon, Herter and himself. Stas
sen said, but he declined to
identify the other five.
Stassen also tefuscd to iden
tify other Republicans who. he
has said, are supporting his pro
posal. But he did say that he
expects them to identify them
selves before the GOP 'conven
tion opens Aug. 20.
While there may bo a number
of Republicans who would like
to dump the controversial vice
president, few can be expected
to declare themselves publicly
unless they are convinced thai
Mr. Eisenhower does not want
Nixon renominated.
The President may speak out
himself next week. It was an
nounced that he probably will
hold a news conference, his first
since his intestinal operation
last month, next Wednesdaw
Subic Naval Base. Trie Phil
ippines UP' Soviet Russia
has concentrated the bulk of its
submarine fleet in the Pacific
ocean, probably including a
i number carrying guided mis-
j siles. reliable sources said today.
Qualified U. S. naval sources
said Russia has "probably two-
: thirds" of her steadily-expanding
underwater fleet in Pacific
; waters. The Russian submarines
are based in Soviet ports on the
5F Embalmers Vote
On Proposed Contract
San Francisco (L'.Ri Em
; balmers and morticians voted
today on a proposed agreement
that is expected to end their
fi4-day strike-lockout and per
I nut burial and cremation of
some Rat) bodies.
Negotiators for the Profe.s
' sional Embalmers" Union and
! the San Francisco Funeral Di
j rectors' Association reached
agreement at a secret meet ins
Wednesday. They reported
"favorably" on the settlement
to their memberships.
The two-year agreement was
not made public. However, it
was reported to provide for a
j S2. monthly pay raise for tiie
, embalmers. who now get S435
a month: and SIR monthly hike
next year: a S10 monthly cm-
! plover contribution to a pension
plan, and a SO monthly employ -
er contribution for health and
! welfare.
Agreement also was reached
on such major issues as the
embalmers' scope of work and
pay for embalmers not regu

: No Estimate of Size
; The sources made no estimate
of the size of the Soviet sud
marine force. However, the 1936-
I 1955 edition of the authoritative
Janes' Fighting Ships estimated
Russia's underwater fleet at
i "not less than 400" with at least ;
100 more under construction.
i The sources said the Soviet
submarines in the Pacific waters
are not all big long range un
derwater craft. They said the
force includes smaller sub- i
! marines apparerftly designed to
harass American surface vessels
j that might be operating near the
j Asian coast in the event of war.
U. S. naval quarters believe
! the Russians have submarines
equippeo to carry and launch
j guided missiles. They assume '
that a number of these would ;
1 be in the Pacific since the, bulk
j of the Russian submarine fleet is
stationed in these waters.
I Building Powerful Subs
j The U. S. Navy, according to ;
i qualified naval sources, is build- ;
ing powerful '"killer subs" which
could not only attack surface ;
craft but also track down enemy '
submarines and destroy them in
underwater battle.
The sources said that the U. S. :
Navy's new nuclear-powered
submarines could be assigned to
such tasks. The Navy already
lias one nuclear-powered sub
marine in operation, the Nau
tilus. The sources said that all ;
new American submarines will
be nuclear-powered.
Portland (U.Ri Four dyna
mite blasts shook a rifle range in
Clackamas county early today.
Residents as far as a mile from
the scene reported their houses
were shaken by the explosions.
The blasts originated in the
hackwall of a rifle range owned
by Bob and Lydia Rosenau. lo
cated near the intersection of
Sunnyside and Mather roads.
A technician stimated that be
tween 50 and 100 sticks of dyna
mite were set off. according to
Bert Quillin and Fred Rice, state
police officers.
Last fall the range was the
subject of a controversy in which
neighbors described it as a haz
ard and a nuisance.
The range was constructed
about eight years ago. Rosenau
said that last year a number of
his neighbors signed a petition
complaining that the range was
hazardous, a nuisance and un
desirable. The court ruled that
it was a nuisance, but Rosenau
said he appealed and early this
vear won his case.

Water Program For
Yreka Is Presented
Yreka A SI. 300. 000 water
program for Yreka was pre
sented to the Yreka city council
this week by the water com
mittee. The plan calls for a minimum
of 20.000 acre feet of water in
addition to the water already
available. It was estimated that
3.000 acre feet would be suffi
cient for a town of 15.000 popu
lation and leave approximately
17.000 feet for sale as irrigation
water.
Called the Grenada Ranch
Project, it would be located
nearly 21? miles southwest of
Grenada. A filration and pump
ing plant would be included in
the project along with the dam
and a pipeline of 1 1 miles.
Water rights belonging to per
sons below" the dam wouldn't be
changed as the dam would re
lease the same amount of water
as flowing into it.
The long range project would
cost approximately $521,000 for
the pumping and filtering plant
with an annual cost of S46.000.
The plant could filter and pump
1,800 gallons per minute.
