Provisions Noted However, Hendrix empha sized it should be understood that the ground water act does not apply in any manner to ap priations of surface water. The provisions of the new law with respect to registration of wells and to permits, do not ap ply to appropriations of ground water for stock watering pur poses, watering any lawn or noncommercial garden not ex ceeding one-half acre, for single or group domestic purposes in an amount not exceeding 15,000 gallons per day or for any single industrial or commercial pur pose in an amount not exceed ing 5.000 gallons per day, Hen drix explained.

On the first trip a transfer Judge Rules That U.S. Was at War, Though Undeclared San Francisco (U.R) Fed eral Judge Louis E. Goodman has ruled that the United States was at war in Korea even though Congress never formally declared war. Goodman made the ruling Fri day in denying a motion to dis miss charges against John W. Powell, former editor of the China Monthly Review, his wife Sylvia, and Julian Schulman of New York. All are accused of conspiracy to violate the War time Sedition act. The three later pleaded Inno cent to the charges. They were indicted last April for conspir ing to interfere with the opera tion and success of the U. S. armed forces during the Korean war. Goodman said in his ruling that "there is no rcquiremnt that there be a formal declaration of war by Congress." Practical Situation "The practical situation was, and I take judicial notice of it. that the United States was at war. It would be a most techni cal straining of a statute and a wierd interpretation of it to hold the indictment does not state an offense if the court held the United States was not at war." Arguments on other defense motions were set for Sept. 18. One of the motions asks per mission to take depositions at government expense in Red China to prove charges of germ warfare by the United States. The defense also want to take depositions from three scientists Brazilian, Swedish and Eng lish who cooperated in bac teriological reports compiled in Peiping in 1952. Defense attorneys have said they are prepared to produce "eyewitnesses" from behind the Bamboo Curtain to "prove" the United Slates used germ war fare against Red China during the Korean war. DEFENSE WEEK Salem (U.R) National Civil Defense Week will be observed in Oregon Sept. 9-15 with local celebrations and displays aimed at acquainting the general pub lic with local organization and Civil Defense workers.
