Funds Earmarked for Industry Promoticn Grants Pass The Grants Pass and Josephine County Chamber of Commerce has earmarked a $10,000 item in this year's bud get for promotion of industrial development. The announcement was made Thursday following discussion by Sidney Bazett of steps taken to date by the industrial commit tee for new industries, including a pulp mill somewhere in the area. Chang In Law Bazett said a change in Ore gon law would be necessary be fore water could be taken from the Rogue river for industrial use. Local sportsmen agreed to go along with this amendment, provided any industrial water use would be subject to require ments and standards set up by existing water use agencies, he aid. Bazett explained the proposed mill would have an initial 300 ton capacity and would be a kraft rather than sulphite opera tion.

Identity of the company report ed interested in such a plant was Lack of Weapons Might Break NATO Bonn, Germany U.R) Chan cellor Konrad Adenauer warned Saturday that refusal to equip the West German armed forces with tactical atomic weapons would mean the break-up of the NATO and Western security de fenses against Communism: Addressing a Christian Demo cratic Party congress at Cologne, Adenauer angrily declared that West German soldiers must not be given equipment inferior to that of their North Atlantic Treaty allies. He again sharply attacked 18 of West Germany's leading at omic scientists who have protest ed against giving A-weapons to West German forces. The 8 1-year-old chancellor ac cused the scientists of "playing politics." But he offered to dis cuss personally with them at any time the political side of this is sue, which has suddenly become one of the most explosive in West German politics.
