their four-day "Peace-pursuing"
district convention when
John O. Groh, from Watch
tower Society world head
quarters spoke on "Security
During 'War of the Great Day
of God Almighty'."
"That will be a 'great day'
the day of the war that will
end all wars," Groh said. "Un
selfish lovers of peace and
brotherhood have looked for
ward to that day which will
lead to a world of enduring
peace. The war of that great
day is an absolute necessity,'
he explained. "Only by it will
the war-minded and war-provoking
disturbers of all hu
man society be wiped out for
ever. "We may not be sure of the
coming of a third world war,
but the 'war of the great
day'," Groh slated, "is author
itatively predicted to come.
The place of security, then,"
he concluded, "is on the side
ol God the Almighty and of
His Christ."

Veterans planning to train
under the Korean GI Bill this
fall have been urged by S. T.

tive, VA Domiciliary, White
City, to submit applications
now rather than wait until the
last minute.
The same advice holds true
for young men and women
who intend to start school in
the fall under the War Or
phans Education program.
By filing an application
now, all processing can be
completed long before classes
start, Brannock pointed out.
Any snags or special problems
can be ironed out with lime
to spare. But waiting until the
last minute when VA re
gional affices may be swamp
ed Willi applications may
risk delay.
Applications for Korean Gl
Bill training or War Orphans
Education may be obtained at
the contact office, VA Domi
ciliary, or from any VA office.
VA estimates that a quarter
of a million veterans will be
in training this fall under the
Korean Gl Bill. Another
12,000 young men and women
are expected io be in school
under the War Orphans pro
gram, Brannock slated.

Washington Hir&s
Firm To Check
Bridge Proposal
Salem-IUPli -Oregon Highway
Eraaaar. W. C. Williams said
Monday" that Washington state
has hired a firm of consulting
enginS.'rs to reevalute anti
cipated traffic over the pro
posed Columbia river bride at
the river mourn.
The $24 million bridge,
which would connect Astoria,
Ore., with Point Ellice on the
Washington side, was propos
ed by Oregon last year. Wash
ington officials have been
lukewarm.
Williams said Washington
has offered to underwrite one
fourth of the cost but Oregon
believes the project should be
50-50.
Not Enthusiastic
The Washington Highway
department also suggested.
that each stale pay foiitH
own approach. Oregon offici
als are nol enthusiastic be
cause the Oregon approach
would cost $1.4 million while
Washington's would be $160,
000. The difference, Williams
said, involves terrain on the
Oregon side, where the ship
channel is located. Oregon's
approach at one spot would
have to be 200 feet high.
Bonds Approved
Last year the Oregon Leg
islature approved $24 million
in bonds for the bridge, con
tingent on Washington's foot
ing half the $1.2 million defi
cit per year for 20 years. This
was declined.
Williams estimalcs that loll
revenue from the bridge
would be up lo $400,000 a
year.

"As a producer stale,"
Smith said, "Oregon's future

Cooperation is the key since
Oregon must make the best

Pipeline Construction to
Hit Record High This Year
By HENRY J. BECHTOLD
United Press International
New York - liiPli - Pipeline
construction should approach
a record $3.8 billion in 1961,
thanks to Federal Power com
mission tardiness.
The FPC has an estimated
billion dollars in gas pipe line
expansion to act upon at pres
ent. And with adjournment
scheduled for the entire
month of August, many of the
lines originally scheduled to
be built this year will have
to be carried over into 1961.
Pipe Line News, magazine
for the industry, says thai the
FPC tardiness has accounted
for pipe line construction in
the first half of 1960 being
down from 35 to 40 per cent
from a year ago. Early esti
mates had indicated that this
was to be a tremendous year
for pipe line work.
However, the FPC began
action this summer on long
pending proposals which
should bring about a large
amount of pipe line construc
tion in the second half of
1960, according to the maga
zine. Early in July alone the
commission approved $75 mil
lion in Peoples Gulf Coast
Natural Gas Pipeline Co., and
Natural Gas Pipeline Co., of
America involving 522 miles
of lines.
$400 Million Mark
Meanwhile, the magazine
said, applications filed with
the FPC thus far in 1960 to
build new natural gas trans
mission facilities are pushing
all 3 Chevron gasolinesat no increase in price!
toward the $400 million mark
These, coupled with a heavy
backlog of projects held with
out certificates by the FPC at
the end of 1959 indicate a
pattern on line laying work
that will mean sharp increases
in 1961 over anyCk-ent year,
it added.
Pipe line construction fell
20 per cent in 1959, and it
now appears that about 40
per cent of natural gas trans
mission construction predict
ed for this year may very well
not be built until 1961.
The magazine points out
lhat whether the current de
pressed rate of new construc
tion in the industry matures
to the $3.8 billion figure next
year still depends upon acvtjpn
by the FPC on natural as
transmission facilities.
The commission, it says, is
under congressional pressure
to speed up its work but in
dications are that any quicker
action on construction proj
ects will have to wail for
some form of legislation to
relieve the FPC rate case
backlog.
Cases Pending
There are more than 3,000
producer rate cases pending
FPC action, and processing
these jams action of construc
tion projects.
Even so the magazine says
a trend toward consolidating
hearings on construction by
the commission may help
push next year's dollar vol
ume even closer to $4 billion,
depending on how much cash

In all, at least a billion
dollars worth of natural gas
pipe line and other construc
tion is expected to gel the go
ahead from the FPC this
season. About half of this is
represented by cases on which
the examiner has completed
testimony, and which are set
for oral argument before the
full commission.
