Newspaper Page Textalifornian Seeks To Block Consideration of Power Priority Bill Kennedy's Signature Sets Tone for Western Trip Washington-IUM-Rep. Craig Hosmer (R-Cali.) sought to day to block a proposal for rpecding consideration of the Tacific Northwest Power pri ority bill in the House Interior Committee. Hosmer protested the an nounced intent of Interior Commitcc Chairman Wayne N. Aspinall (D-Colo.) to take the bill up for full committee consideration without further hearings by its reclamation subcommittee. The California Republican said he still had pending a re quest with subc o m m i 1 1 e e chairman Walter Rogers (D- FCLGERS COFFEE Mb 69c U0i 2-b 137 IUgP INSTANT 6-cz. 89c 10-oz. 1.39 Crater Way Marks! Eagle Point Tex.) for cross-examination of I' witnesses who appeared be fore the subcommittee in June. I He charged that testimony j of tiie witness had been "hur ried over during a brief ses sion" of the subcommittee on the bill designed to pave the way for construction of trans mission lines to connect fed eral power systems in the Pa cific Northwest and Cali fornia. The legislation, which would give the Pacific Northwest first call on federal power produced in the area, was passed by the Senate despite Republican objections that il would destroy a policy of granting preference to public power agencies throughout the country. Hosmer, in a letter to Aspi nall. said' the legislation ap peared merely to grant a super - preference to certain private consumers in the Pa cific Northwest but that it actually had "much broader implications." i The legislation, he said, "should not be rushed through I the committee without full and thorough evaluation." ! He demanded a chance to continue questioning of Jo seph C. Swidler, chairman of the Federal Power Commis sion; Charles Luce, adminis trator of the Bonneville pow er administration; Gus Nor wood, executive secretary of the Northwest Public Power Association, and Norman Clapp, administrator of the Rural Electrification Adminis tration. , .

AT THE DIG Y Washington -lUPIi- President Kennedy set the tone today for his Western tour by prais ing members of Congress who fight for major water resource projects as contributory to the entire nation and not merely a region. Kennedy leaves early Fri day for what has been de scribed as a non-political in spection trip to water re sources projects in South Dakota, Colorado and Cali fornia. In a' large White House ceremony today, Kennedy signed a bill authorizing a S170 million project to help irrigate the Arkansas River Basin and improve supplies of drinking water and elec tricity to an area of more than half of Colorado. While his trip is billed by the White House as non-political, there will be inevitable political overtones as the chief executive greets Democratic incumbents and candidates. To counter this political in dication, the White House points out that ranking Re publican incumbents in some areas also will be greeted by the President. Kennedy, flying in an Air Force jet transport, will take off at 5:30 a.m. (PST) for Profit-Taking In Evidence on Moderate Volume New York - 'UPH - A con tinuation of Wednesday's late profit-taking was evident in the early hours of trading to day.

Worthington dropped more than 4 following a dividend cul . The majority of issues held to a narrow range.

They pictured the Soviet feat as a "baby step" which told nothing about who would win in the hard running of the space race. James E. Webb, head of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, said he would change his forecast only if Russia started using next month something like the giant Saturn booster that America hopes to have in service in two or three years. He conceded that while the U.S. space effort is fast paced, it is not a crash program. He said an extra $1 to $2 billion a year could be spent but would speed progress only slightly and might hinder military projects. Webb and three other lop Regional Edition Medford Page 2-A Tribune NASA officials save these views Wednesday at a news conference called to answer questions about Russia's latest cosmonaut venture. A Soviet correspondent put into words the question puz zling many American report ers. Sergei Vishnesky of Prav da wanted to know why offi cial answers at the news con ference about America's space progress sounded so much more optimistic than other views attributed to NASA of ficials and U.S. scientists. Deputy NASA Chief Hugh Dryden replied, "There are 22,000 people in NASA. If you did not find one pessimist among them, something would be wrong." wind un in Yosemite National Park, Calif.
