Ross Hatch, directing a Rogue ; Valley flood control study for the Army corps of engineers, ! noted that the plan originally j proposesd by the bureau of rec lamation, or a possible alterna tive of three dams at major tributaries on the upper Rogue, would offer the best flood con trol protection. Opposition to the high dam, known as Plan A, was express ed in a letter from the Jackson county chapter of the Izaak Walton league. It stated the chapter would be "unalterably opposed" to a high dam at Lew is creek, even if recommended by the Army engineers as the only logical means of flood con trol. Not Only Solution "The Lewis creek dam is not the only solution being consid ered by the Army," Hatch said. But he added that such a high dam would mean "just that much less water to come down stream" when flood conditions again develop. According to Hatch if protec tion was provided only for the small floods that occurr in five or 10 year cycles, people would return to the danger areas. Urban and suburban areas urrtnlH not ho KonofitoH f nnlv i small floods were eliminated, j leaving these areas still vuln erable to the "disastrous" floods I appearing in 50-year cycles, said i Hatch. j The Army engineer reminded association directors that the project must be viewed primar ily from the flood control stand i point, indicating that power and 1 irrigation aspects of the project would get secondary considera tion. j Hatch and his assistant, K. D. ! Kerr, both from Portland office, j outlined two "fundamental" principles which will guide the corps' of engineers in all aspects of the Rogue study. Benefits Exceed Cost First, benefits must exceed cost of these projects, Hatch said. Second, if surveys indicate either of the two proposed pro jects will be feasible, engineers must recommend the one with lesser cost. Hatch declared that a series of low dams, along tributaries of the Rogue, would not be fea sible from the flood control standpoint, becaust the rapid fall of these streams preclude adequate water storage areas Army engineers will devise the "best apparent plan," bu that If people of this area do not want it, "we will not build it," Hatch said. He told the directors the as sociation must prepare to work energetically on behalf of any project finally approved and recommended to congress. Con gress will ignore the report un less there is organized support for the program, he said. Money for Survey State Rep. Ray Bristol, Grants Pasl, noted that the Oregon Wa ter Resources board had been appropriated 520,000 during th legislature's recent session for a comprehensive survey of the Rogue river and all possible water utilization from the stream. The state board is expected to work closely with Army en gineers in its survey, but will have veto power over any pro gram recommended by the Army, Bristol said. "But if the board approves the Army engineers' report, this will be a guarantee there will be no state opposition to thj flood control plan," according to Bristol. Later, members of the group authorized William Jess, assoc iation president, to write Rep. Charles O. Porter, (D-Ore.), of the fourth district, thanking him for his interest in the pro ject. Porter announced he has plans to introduce a bill which would embody most of the orig inal Plan A. The Oregon congressman has indicated he will amend his bill to include the full program as recommended by Army engin eers, when their survey has been completed. Hatch pointed out any bill Driver's License Of Wrong Variety; Judge Levies Fine Houston, Tex. HP) It cost George Willis. 24. a Negro, $65 when he handed his driv er's license lo Traffic Judge Wallace P. Kelley. Willis was charged with driving without one. The worn piece of paper he handed Kelley read: "This is to certify that the person herein named has passed all tests for nervous ness and has been licensed to irritate, annoy, criticize and otherwise disturb the operator of the car. Back seat drivers must carry this license on per son or otherwise must keep quiet while vehicle is in mo lion." Willis, who can't read, said he got his license in a barbershop. without approval by the corpn of engineers probably would face a presidential veto, even if it were acceptable to congress. He cited as an example th which did not have army en gineers' recommendation and was vetoed by President Eisen hower. The association will hold its next meeting Monday. July 8, in the Jackson county court house, Medford. Plane's Prop Wash Fatal To Paratrooper Ft. Bragg, N.C. M A medical investigation board has ruled that a young paratrooper who dangled helplessly for three hours outside a flying troop car rier plane was "drowned" in the plane's prop wash. The board of Army and Air Force doctors said that Pfc. Wayne H. Flugum, 23. of Leland, Iowa, suffocated when he was unable to breathe because of the motion of the flowing air. Flugum remained conscious for more than an hour and a halt but died when crewmen of the C123 troop carrier were unable to pull him back into the plane. Another board of investigation is seeking to determine how Flu gum became tangled in dangling static lines as he and 35 other paratroopers leaped from the plane Tuesday over Ft. Bragg. Portland Woman on Stand in Fraud Trial Portland Uti A Portland clubwoman tqok the witness stand in her own defense here Wednesday in the trial of a mail fraud conspiracy against the U. S. government. The government charges that promoters of the Mount Hood Hardboard and Plywood Co-operative had milked the organiza tion of between 5250,000 to 5550, 000. Mrs. Helen A. Davenport, 77, took the witness stand before U. S. Judge Gus Solomon. She was preceded on the witness stand by Circuit Judge Charles W. Crawford and Municipal Judge J. J. Quillin, who testified to her high reputation in the commu nity. Other action In today's court proceedings saw Judge Solomon dismiss the case against Richard Williams, 60, retired Milwaukie state police lieutenant, because, "we don't want to endanger any body's life." Williams became ill on the wit nes stand yesterday while testi fying in his own defense. Wil liams has had three coronary oc clusions before. Godfrey's Property Yields Stolen Bonds Miami Beach Mi Arthur Gorfrey's oceanfront property has yielded a 5100,000 "hidden treasure" of stolen bonds and jewelry which police said two convicts had buried in the sand. Detectives using a rough map drawn by the convicts now con fined in Mobile, Ala., on robbery convictions led detectives Wed nesday to three strong boxes buried together in a shallow hole covered with sand. Officers said Godfrey knew nothing about the cache on his property. Police said the bonds, in non-negotiable war savings certificates and upwards of 525, 000 in transferable utility stocks, were buried 200 yards north of the Kenilworth Hotel, owned by the television star. Rebels Ambush Bus In Western Algeria Algiers n Rebels am bushed a bus in Western Algeria Wednesday and killed the only two European passengers aboard, French authorities announced to day. The bus was halted by a band of 15 Algerian nationalists while on a regular run from Tlemcen to Eugene-Etienne. Tlemcen is about 30 miles from the Moroc can border and was the scene bf a major rebel attack last week. In other parts of the territory, French troops killed 35 rebels in separate skirmishes. In the biggest clash, 19 rebels died in a French ambush north of Perre gaux, 30 miles east of Oran. Algiers, where six persons died in violent anti-Moslem rioting Tuesday, was calm.
