Oosudarsvennoe Dalnevostochne Parohodstvo seeks damages of the two defendants totaling $21,018.34 because an 188 00 pound railroad car was dropped onto the deck of the ship Kuban on September 23. 1944.

Picket Line For Love Breaks Up PEORIA. HI.. April 14 Bob Evans. 31. who picketed for love, withdrew his one-man picket line Tuesday, and a deep silence set tled over the affair. Evans, who Sunday picketed the home of Miss Ida Macoway. 32. urging her to marry him. declined to comment. So did Miss Macoway. Evans, when he began marching, told newsmen he had been going with Miss Macoway for year, but when he a-ks her to marry "she keeps putting me off." His signs bore the following lament: "She says Til marry you later. Go back to work.' I want to marry now because I'm no Jerk." ACCENT ON I si TKt Rolti 0rtriii otote Whttl kpt iplit wcorxJ OUwrpcy.

"In other words, with transmission lines cost ing less than $16,000,000 we can add to the California system the equivalent of another Shasta and another Keswick dam. "I stress the tact that this is waste power not power which is being used by the people of the Bonneville system. The historical studies of the Bonneville sysiem prove that this energy waste ex ists now and will always continue. The major part of this waste oc curs at night and during Ihe sum mer daylight hours as well." Kngle said the Columbia river has only a few small water stor age sites, the maximum contem plated storage being eight per cent. Therefore he added the power po tential must be used as II passes the power plant or it goes to waste. In the Central valley of Califor nia, on the other hand, sufficient storage capacity exists, he said, so that California can use the waste Columbia river power and save the ! central valley power In water be- 1 hind Its dams to meet peak de- j mands and periods of short water. ' Return Planned I Engle said also that connecting transmission lines and an lute-1 grated system would permit the Cen- tral valley to supply power from ' time to time to consumers on the ; Bonneville system. The Californian said steam plants in the state now produce about half the state's firm power. Use of the waste Bonneville power In Califor nia would save S6.000.000 a year in fuel oil he estimated. "Thus." he told the committee, "these lines will pay for themselves In two years of operation." "This is the only conceivable program which can help materially to alleviate the California power shortage within the next two years. It is estimated that If we started immediately these transmission lines could be built within two years." The reclamation bureau has re quested 170.000 to continue its study of the proposed Bonneville-Central valley integrated power system. En gle urged that the committee grant additional money for actual con struction "and tell them to start now."
