Frank E. Landsburg, district director for the Interstate Com merce Commission's. Bureau of Motor Carriers, said that opinion resulted from a recent survey of transportation between Alaska and the United States and Canada. , "We do not now have a depend' able supply line by Sea, nor . a PMV Power Boost Said Needed Soon WASHINGON W Congress was asked Monday to make an early decision on plans for addl. tlonal power facilities In the Pa cific Northwest. C. A. Erdahl, chairman of the paclilc northwest utilities comer- ence Committee, told a Senate ap propriations subcommittee: ' "Let us know soon if you are not going to continue with these projects so that we can get ready to take up the slack." Erdahl said private and public power groups which make up the Northwest power pool will continue to do all in their power to provide for the area's growing needs. But he said the day Is coming when loads of Northwest Public agencies may require the full output of ex isting federal plants. "In such event the federal gov ernment will find Itself with no recourse but the renegotiation of industrial contracts should the con structlon of additional power gen- eratlng facilities be limited by jack 01 appropriations." Erdahl's position was supported In statements presented to the committee by representatives of ten private and public utilities. w tuiiuimwB aj&o Heart argu ments for and against construction of The Dalles dam on the Columbia River. - . Representatives of the Yakima Indian tribe opposed the protect contending It will destroy tradl tional Ilshlng grounds. The Yak lma said If the dam Is built they 6hould be consulted In negotiations Xor pay for the fishing rights. Umatilla and Warm Springs In- cians supported the project, and Nez Perce tribesmen said they should have a share of some J3 million dollars set aside to pay for the fishing rights. Farmers Get Smaii Share Here's another reason for not blaming the farmer for those high grocery bills. Out of the retail price of a loaf of bread said to cost an annual average of 16.7 cents, the farmer received 18 per three cents, m 1047 the farm value Klemfnt- nV "sovmetinles oi me ingrccients in a loaf of bread reached a post - war high of 3.J cents or 27 per cent of the total retail price. The greater share of the high price loaf of bread can be charged to bakers and retailers.

Landsburg said In the event of war Russian submarines could cut off the sea lanes overnight. A railroad to' Alaska would be the best possible supply line, he said, but lacking a railroad, "the most realistic move we could now make would be to provide a high way all along the route sucn railroad would take." Landsburg proposed construction or a nigmvny irom rrince ueorge, B. C. North to Lower Post or Watson Lake. B.C.. to connect with the present Alaska Highway However, he described the pres. ent highway as maaequate ana ae dared: "It will never have more than cursory value. It could not possibly meet milita yr require, ments In the event of war with Rus sia. It Is impassable to heavy duty traffic for several montns oi tne year. It is much too long." Other speakers included Alaska Gov. B. Frank Helntzieman. Can adian Sen. J. Turgeon of Ottawa and William H. Brown, secretary- treasurer of the American Viscose Corp.. an investor In a 40-mllllon dollar pulp plant at Ketchikan, Turgeon warned the good rela lions of the United States and Canada are threatened by the pos sibility of new import restrictions, Brown said Alaskans seeking in vestment capital could take a tip from Canada where strong inauce- ments are liberal tax treatment and sources of accurate Informa tion.

Britons To' Cable Talks LONDON m Prime Minister Winston Churchill has ordered full texts of his own and opposition leader Clement Attlee's foreign af fairs speeches to be cabled to the Unites mates to avoid iiuure transatlantic sparring matches. He Indicated in the House of Commons the order has gone out as a result of criticism in the United States of speeches last week by htmaelf and Attlee. Newspaper reports of Attlee's speech aroused slrong resentment in the United States. British sources blamed murh of the ruckus on the fact no one in Washington had the full text. In his speech Attlee said there were elements in the United States that did not want a Korean set- one wondered whether who was more powerful, the President of Sen. McCarthy." In reply, sen.

MEDFORD Thoroughly Modern Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Earley and Joe Earley Proprietors Tips Given On Cattle Profit With farm income down, the American Foundation for Animal Health today suggested a 6-polnt Dlan to help limners make up some of this year's reduced profits. "Millions can be added to farm incomes by' a 6-way program of combatting the losses usually caused by livestock diseases," Foundation spokesmen said. Here are the disease-prevention steps suggested: 1. Isolate newly-purchased live stock long enough to be sure they are not disease carriers. 2. Prevent tracking of disease from one farm to another. Visitors and salesmen can bring in a live stock Infection on their clothing or shoes. 3. Make war on rats. They can carry disease germs from farm to farm. 4. Use onlv trucks which have been disinfected before hauling livestock. Keep rendering : trucks away from livestock areas on tho farm. 6. Get rid of crows and pigeons. Some diseases may be carried by birds. ' 6. Obtain a diagnosis when first disease symptoms are noticed and warn neighbors so they can sale guard their livestock, too.
