The wells are part of a pilot station built on the sand dunes north of Coos Bay to develop an underground supply of water for industrial expansion. A. J. Moore, Coos Bay district manager for the utility, said the test pumping will continue for several months while engineers test the ability of the wells to deliver a sustained flow. The installation is the only one of its kind in North America to extract fresh water from sand dunes near the ocean.

Is at Your Service for the Years Ahead Truth Sacrificed for Political Advantage, Stevenson Declares London W Adlai E. Ste venson told Britons today the Eisenhower administration has "sacrificed truth" and "the re spect and confidence of our friends abroad" for political ad vantage. Stevenson made the statement in a special article written for the London News-Chronicle in his role as titular head of the Democratic party. The piece was an explanation of his decision not to accept President Eisen hower's invitation to attend the top level Paris NATO sessions later this month. Stevenson said he would "go before Congress" to call for an "open handed" billion dollar foreign aid program. He did not say when. Unhappy About Mid-East He wrote that he saw unhappy developments in the Middle East and within the NATO alliance that indicated this was a perilous period for the West. The Anglo-French attack on Suez would not have taken place last year had the United States taken a more decisive position toward Russian Middle East penetration and nationalization of the Suez Canal by Egypt, he said. Made No Specifications Stevenson did not specify what position he thought the United States should have taken in these connections. Stevenson stressed the need for truth to be presented to the people of the United States by the administration and wrote: "I think there have been many occasions in the past four years under the Eisenhower ad ministration when we have sacrificed truth, and we have sacrificed, indeed, event the re spect and confidence of our friends abroad, in the interests of party harmony of some fancy political advantage in this coun try (the U.S.) and I think this is a great mistake." In Washington, a spokesman for Stevenson denied the News Chronicle tory. "This story is definitely not true," the spokes man said in a statement. "Mr. Stevenson has not written any article for the London News Chronicle, nor has he talked to any of their reporters. The Chronicle may have taken a speech or article by Mr. Steven son months ago and has given the impression that it was writ ten within the past few days."
