Neuberger (D-Ore.) told a luncheon meeting of the Izaak Walton League today that '"the quest for power and flood con trol must be concentrated in the 'fishless' reaches of the Columbia above Grand Coulee for the pres ent, while fish experts are work ing on problems of maintaining migratory salmon and steelhead runs on the Clearwater and Salmon rivers." Neuberger said the sites on the Columbia above the Cana dian border had a potential of 13 million acre feet of flood and power storage, while the Pend Oreille and Kootenai rivers on the American side offered reser voirs for another nine-million acre feet. "Plans for future development of the Columbia should have as a primary precept the building of those dams first which will have the least adverse effect on fish, wildlife, scenic and recrea tional values," he added. This means concentration on develop ment at Canadian and other up stream locations, the senator said.

Bar Asks Action Against Attorney Portland ro The Board of Governors of the Oregon Siaie Bar today recommended disci plinary action against Portland Attorney John P. Hannon, who successfully defended Sherry Fong in her fourth trial for mur der. The action became known when the board's decision and recommendation was filed in Salem with the clerk of the State Supreme Court. The Bar did not elaborate on its charge of misconduct against the Port land attorney. Hannon was attorney for Mrs. Fong, who won acquittal last week of charges she murdered 16-year-old Diane Hank. It was Mrs. Fong's fourth trial for mur der growing but of the death of the Portland high school girl. Hannon also represented Sherry's husband, Wey Him Fong, in an earlier trial in which he was also acquitted. Hannon also was attorney for George Sack who was convicted of the first degree murder, of his wife. Of the Bar's recommendation against him, Hannon said, "It's a matter of jealousy and envy of my ability on the part of the bar committee. I'm not disbarred. There is only a recommendation and the Supreme Court has yet to act." In other actions today the bar: Found Attorney Duane Clay Morrow of Albany guilty of mis conduct and recommended a three-year suspension. , Cleared Ernest Lundeen, Eu gene attorney, of misconduct charges and recommended that the complaint against him be dismissed. tnlircT lil " 1 n prps n - . .
