Snake River Dam Fight Goes To SEC Washington-lTti-The Wash ington Public Power Supply System carried its battle to block private construction of a dam on the middle Snake river to the Securities and Ex change Commission Tuesday.

The company - formed by Washington Water Power, Pa cific Power & Light, Montana Power 'and Portland General Electric - plans to build the High Mountain Sheep dam between Oregon and Idaho. The WPPSS opposed the application and asked to build the Nez Perce dam farther downstream or, failing that, to build the High Mountain Sheep dam. A Federal Power Commission examiner ruled in favor of the private plan and the case is now before the full commission.

Wildfowl Refuge Management Bill Given Senate Nod Washington - H'Mi - A bill passed by the Senate Monday will provide a permanent ba sis for the management of four wildfowl refuges in the Klamath Basin of California and Oregon, its sponsor said Tuesday. The measure now goes to the House. The bill, introduced by Sen. Thomas H. Kuchcl (R Calif.) affected the Tule Lake, Lower Klamath, Upper Klamath and Clear Lake na tional wildlife refuges. Leases Continued The Senate bill included an amendment to continue the present pattern of leasing lands in five units of the Low er Klamath and Tule Lake refuges: the Klamath Straits unit, the Southwest Sump, the League of Nations unit, the Henzel Lease and the Frog Pond unit. The leased lands would be used for growing grain, forage and soil-building crops, with other public lands reserved for waterfowl purposes. The bill calls for the gov ernment - owned lands in the four refuges in the Pacific Flyway to be administered for the major purpose of water fowl management. Kuchcl, in urging a favor able vote on the bill, termed it "one of the most important pieces of conservation legisla tion" which the present Con gress would consider. Request Turned Down The California Republican said the Interior Committee had turned down a request by the Klamath Irrigation Dis trict in Oregon that 6,365 acres of the Lower Klamath Refuge be placed under pri vate ownership. He said the committee had concluded that the property "should remain in public ownership for the ul timate highest utilization in the refuge complex." Sen. Clair Engle (D-Calif.) and 12 other senators joined Kuchel in co-sponsoring the legislation. SNARE Detects Hidden Bombs Philadelphia - OIPD - Irwin W. Ehlmann of suburban Hat boro has invented a device which he believes will elimi nate explosions on airplanes caused by bombs concealed in baggage. Ehlmann has received a patent for the apparatus which he calls Signal Net for Actuating Radio - sensitive Explosives. (SNARE). The device consists of a 30-foot bomb-proof chamber with a conveyor belt running through it. As baggage is car ried through SNARE it is sub jected to a strong exposure of radio frequency waves in varying wave lengths, de signed to set off the explo sive. "It will be found." Ehl mann said, "that in all cases of explosives aboard airliners that a blasting cap arrange ment was used.

"A blasting cap is the trig- i gcr mechanism, and the ex plosion of the cap in turn provides the impact that deto nates the dynamite," he said. Any other type fuse is im practical to use when en closed in a piece of luggage." Ehlmann said the radio fre quency waves used to set off the dynamite in SNARE are shielded so they will not in terfere with radio communi cations or electronic devices at air terminals. Long Association Ehlmann has been associat ed with the airline industry for a number of years, begin ning before World War II with Continental Air Lines in Den ver. After the war he found ed the Aviation Insurance Service in Denver. "During my years in the business," he said, "I became acquainted with most of the flight crows for United and I already knew most of the senior men with Continental. "On Nov. 1, 1955, Lee H Hall was captain of the United flight that crashed at Long mont, Colo., when John Graham concealed dynamite in a suitcase carried on the plane. "Lee Hall had been one of my clients and a good friend as well, and the incident spur- j red me to the extent of won-! dering why there could not be some means found of abort ing further incidents of this nature. "I read and studied every thing that could be found on the subject of explosives for almost 2!i years and finally! came up with the ideas thai j have since been incorporated I in this patent." j The study, development and patenting of SNARE has taken five years, Ehlmann said. The SNARE patent is num-1 bcr 3075461, Issued on Jan. I 2!). 163. Installation of each I SNARE device would be less ' than $10,000, Ehlmann said. 1 Ehlmann, 43, is married and Ihe father of two small chil dren. He has lived in Pcnn- j sylvania for about eight years after having moved here from San Francisco. j 3 Firemen Injured In Vancouver Blaze Vancouver, Wash. - IUPH Three firemen were Injured when a fire flashed through a loading dock at n paper company here Tuesday night.
