An AP correspondent In Hanoi says in a dlnpalch this morning thai tenldcnl ol Hanoi BELIEVE their city Is about to be handed aver by the Krench to the com' iminUU under a ceaae-flre agree ment. He aaya the alluellon la po tentially explosive and quotes one native Hnnol resident Uius: "The dar I learn we have been sold oui I will lake my gun, go Into Ue streets and SHOOT THE rlRST THREE FRENCH I BEE II will make me leel belter, and 11 will give me points with the communists. " What he means la Uml be and all the other Indochlneso HATE THE FRENCH, and be thinks cvmcally thsl by 8HOOT1NO FRENCHMEN they can make their peaoe with the commies Al any rate, U'a a mesa and what I hope Is that we KEEP OUT OF IT. All title brings up the subject of the gallanl old battleship Ore gon, which went rolling and wal lowing down to Manila when the Spanish war broke out In that period of our history thel, has Mmm In h knnwn ss ''ThS (ItV Nineties," and got there In lime to help decisively In the destruc tion ol the Spanish fleet In Manila Bay. When the grand old lady served out her time and was obsolcied we eventuslly got her nettled nice ly In the waters of the Willamette In the Portland harbor. There she remained, properly loved and honored, until World War II, when we got Into such despersle need of Iron and steel thsl she wss stripped ol her guns, turrets, masts, etc., and her remaining hull was lllled with ammunition and oilier supplies of war and sent aa a barge to Ouam. where It is now resting and rusting. There are patriotic auggealions that she be brought back to Ore gon, relittrd and replaced in Port land harbor as a proud histories) relic. But It Is estimated that It would cost some 3ft million dol lars to put her In seaworthy enough shape to . bring her bsck and the dsya when our country could afford to spend 35 million dollars for laudable patriotic ges tures like that are- unfortunately gone where the woodbine twlneth. What to do with the old Ore gon? Tlie Portland Orcgonlan sug gests that we tow her out Into the deep, deep waters Hint He off the Philippines, stand figuratively at rigid attention, with flags flying and the guns rosrlng In salute, and then open her aencocka and send her down to an honorable grave In tho waters where she made her grcnt name. I'm for It. After all, we must remember that tho grand old Oregon Is a relic of nn era Uin,l we'd best for get tho era of our Ill-starred ad venture INTO COLONIAL IM PERIALISM IN ASIA. We saw the British and the French and tho Dutch playing that game down there and when the Spanish war camo along nnd we took the Philippines as a part of It we Just couldn't resist get ting ' Into the Imperialist game ounselves. ' . Fortunately, we had the good aense eventually to give the Phil ippines back to the Filipinos, , Let's leave It there. We want no further part In tho nasty business of colonial Imperialism. we ve naa our nil of It, Lei's leave the carcass of tho old Oregon, as tho Orcgonlan Bug' gents, out there In the deen ters off the Philippines, as a sign mat wo re through for good with the unprofitable, business of trying to RUN OTHER PEOPLE'S LIVES FOR THEM.

The new developments. In Doug Iss County, will cost sn estimated 119.(19,100. The company suld the developments are: Leniolo No. 1 A diversion dam, (10 feel long and 130 feet high, a mile downstream from Lake Creek on the North Umpqua River, creating a 415-acre reser voir. The powerhouse will contain a 40.000 horsepower turbine con nected to a 29,000 kilowatt gener ator. Lemolo No. 1 Immediately downstream from No. t will In clude a load diversion dam and a small .reservoir on North Umpqua River, a small diversion dam on Deer Creek, a n d a powerhouse with a 46.000 horsepower turbine connected to a 13,000 kilowatt gen erator. Work Is progressing satisfactor ily on these two projects, accord ing to a report from Copco man agement.

VIENNA, Austria in Disaster team:;, nckd by hundreds of Amer ican soldiers. Intensified ellorus to day to rescue hundreds of families marooned by floods raging across Austria and southern Germany. At least 13 persons worn known to have perished in Ihe rampaging: waters and scores of others were missing. In the past two days more than 20.000 persons have been evacuated from farms and villages Inundated by the rain swollen Dan ube nnd Its tributaries. Two big cities Psssau nnd Llni were partly under water ns a re sult of tlie worst flood to sweep the rich Danube and Inn River valleys In 60 years. At Pnssnu, the flood waters have reached tlie city center, A woinon's hospital Is under water In Lint. Many families spent the night shivering on the roofs of their homes. In both Austria and Ger many all available bonis were mo bilised by police, firemen, Red Cross workers nnd Amor loan troops. The U. 8. Army expected to send In more liellcopters during the day. ' , The floods wcro brought on by more than 70 hours rain nnd henvv snow'falls In the Alps.

Indochina on The French High Command said today any plun to evacupte civilians roin Indochina's norlucn city of Hanoi hliu.es on whether current peace negotiations succeed or fall. A spokesmen lor Gen. Paul Ely said France's Indochina comman der Is holding off on any evacua tion move until he learns whether an armistice is to be signed. Ely predicted yesterday that a peace-or-war decision would be reached by July 20 the date French Premier Pierre Mendes France set as his deadline to achieve a truce or realm. The spokesman denied that Ely had given orders before his de parture from Hanoi that families of Frenclunen living In the north be evacuated to a safer place. Ely's Information chief said ru mors he ordered the withdrawal of Hanoi's civilian population ap parently were based on a brief conversation he had at the air port with a group of Hanoi busi nessmen. Tlie spokesman gave this account of the conversation: The businessmen asked Ely what should be done about their fam ilies. The general replied that un til some decision was reached on the armistice he planned no evac uation. But, he added. If they felt worried, there waa nothing to pre vent them from moving their fam ilies elsewhere on their own Initia tive. In the event that peace efforts failed, the spokesman said. It would seem more prudent to move out women and children. The -situation In Hanoi has be come Increasingly serious the past week because of the mounting stream of refugees pouring In from the Red River Delta In the wake of the French withdrawal from the delta's southern sector. It Is esti mated that between 75,000 and 100,- 000 refugees have swelled Hanoi's normal population of 300.000. The New York Herald-Tribune said lh a dispatch from Paris the United States has Informed France it is no longer Interested In operat ing a training program for Veh namese troops. The dispatch said the switch in American policy had greatly dis couraged French officials. Halt To Bomb Tests Asked UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. Wl India la demanding a halt In U. 8. Hydrogen bomb tests In the Mar shall Islands until the World Court can rule on their legality under the U, N. trust agreements. V. K. Krishna Menon, Indian deltgste to the U. N. Trusteeship Council, made the demand in the council Friday night. He charged the agreement 'for U. S. adminis tration of the Pacific Islands did not give her the right to make them a nuclear weapons proving ground. 81dlng with Russian and Syrian delegates In barbed attacks on the U. 8. tests, Menon said the experl menu threatened to destroy not only life In the Islands but the islands themselves. Mason Sears, the U. S. delegate, replied that no lives had been lost and no property destroyed. He re iterated the U. 8. stand that the tests wero lcgnl and added that tliey were part of the U. 8. pro gram for protection of the free world. Including India. Menon shot back: "India will take care of Itself." Earlier In Ihe day, Beurs de clared the United States cunld not slop H-bomb tests until the Rus sians did likewise. The trusteeship council Is con sidering pennons by Marshall islanders asking for a halt to the bomb tests or n better system ol warning nnd protection.

The exercise, which started shortly alter noon Ftlday, Is a mritlvt olr defense training ma neuver Involving American and Hells Canyon End Friday WASHINGTON "l The long, politics-threaded fight over wheth er private or federal enterprise should develop the Bnalu. River and lis awesome Hells Canyon stood at an Important roadmark Saturday but substantial litigation undoubtedly lay ahead. Behind the rivals the Idaho Power Co., a private utility, and groups favoring public power was a year-and-three-day bearing be fore the Federal Power Commis sion. The hearing ended Friday after an unusual three-hour over time session. Idaho Power is fighting for li censes to build three low dams In the Idaho-Oregon sector of the Snake, including one In Hells Can yon, the deepest river gorge on the continent. Hells Canyon, however, earlier had been slaked off for a gigantic federal structure some engineers consider a key structure in Colum bia River Basin plans. So when Idaho Power announced plans for the canyon one of the nation's big gest private vs. public power fights was ignited. Former President Truman and his secretaries of th interior, Ju lius Krus; and Oscar Chapman, fought toott-and-nall -against Idaho Power, filing: a case of Interven tion against the firm Before the FPC. And they pressed hard to gef the federal Hells Canyon Dam on its way, . When the Republicans came Into power Douglas McKay became secretary of the Interior. On May i. 1953, be called a news confer ence and said he was withdrawing the Democratic-filed intervention against Idaho Power. The private utility's three-dam proposal was "reasonably compar able as to results" as compared with the federal project, he de clared. He said, too, that even If Congress were to authorise the multi-purpose dam he doubted ap propriations could be justified for It at this time. Counterfeit Charge Filed SEATTLE I A middle-aged printing shop owner, father of five children and long a respected member of his trade, was under arrest Satuday on a charge of making hundreds of bogus $10 bills. Secret Service agents and Se attle police arrested Marglon G. Thompson. 53, Friday at his down town printing shop after a rash of fresh counterfeit bills led them to him. Thompson was arraigned before U.S. Commissioner John A. Burns, bound over to n federal grand Jury nnd released on $1,500 bond William B. Cllne, special egent In charge of the 8ecret Service office here, snld Thompson admit ted In a signed statement he made the engravings from which at least 1.300 phony $10 bills were manufactured, printed the bills on bond paper from his own stock and with his own Ink. ON TP.AIL Cllne said the agents got on Thompson's trail after the arrest of Fred William Jones, 64, who was caught trying to pass one of the bills. Jones had another 99 of the bogus bills In his pockets. A third man, who got Into the case nppnrently by nccident, nlso was nabbed earlier this week try lug to pnss one of the counter felt notes. He wns Fred John Zeig ler, 68, in whose room 140 of them were found. Cllne snld Thompson relnted In his confession that he met Jones several months ago and agreed to go In with him In a counterfeit lne venture. The first 1,000 bills were not good enough, so Ihey were burned at a Seattle city dump. Another 300 were printed. These were the ones which had been appearing here sporadically In recent weeks. Thompson confirmed Zelgler's story he found a big batch of the bills in a garbage can. The print er said that after Jones' arrest, he put all that bogus bills he bad left m aa envelope and dropped them in a trash can near his shop. Thompson had owned and op erated his printing establishment here since 1933. Hearings SATURDAY, JULY It, 19S4 Canadian airmen and civilian vol unteers of both nations. The first word of a "fakir" air craft attempting to penetrate the air defenses of the Pacific North west was relayed to the combat center of the 25th Air Division here at approximately 3:30 a.m. Saturday. The Information said the "ag gressor" planes were sppi jxlmate ly 175 miles north of the U.S.-Can-adl.in border. Within three minutes after re ceipt of the information, let flght- l er planes from the 465lh Fighter- Interceptor Squadron had taken to the air and were en route to make contact with the "enemy" aircraft. The 35th Air Division's com mander. Brig. 'Gen. T. Alan Ben nett, said more than SO per cent of the units in his command, cov ering the states of Idaho, Oregon and Washington, were ready to take to the skies within minutes after the first alert "exercise Checkpoint'' was sounded at 13 09 p.m. Friday. Meanwhile,' Bennett announced the firat of the early control and warning aircraft Is in position snd giving radar coverage on the sea ward side ol tne sin Air uivisiou. The CU1. a Constellation, will patrol the Pacific from Vancouv er Island south to tne uregonu- ifornla border. Equipped with ra dar gear similar to that used m land-based radar Installations, the C131 will cruise approximately 100 miles off the coast as a roving screen to protect the Northwest against a -sneak sir attack. Bennett said the flying radar station is the first of its kind to be used In an exercise of the mag nitude of "Checkpoint" In the 36th Atr Division's area of responsi bility. , Adlai Sparks Eugene Meet ' EUGENE W Oregon Demo- crate converged on Eugene Satur day for the rally that launches their general election campaign. A speech by Adlai Stevenson on na tural resources was the feature at traction. Democrats are making natural resources policy especially the de velopment of hydroelectric power the big campaign point In this state. Stevenson, the 1962 Democratic presidential candidate, spent the past week at a Central Oregon ranch, resting, fishing and polish ing up his speech here. The Democrats organized motor caravans from as far away as Portland for the drive to the after noon Eugene rally, where the party's candidates for top offices were to share the platform with 8tevenson. The party's, state committee scheduled a meeting to follow the rally. Howard Morgan, Monmouth, was expected to be re-elected chairman. A new secretary will be named to succeed Vomey Martin, who said be will not seek the of fice again. Prominently mentioned for the position were Al Thomas, Portland, AFL Bricklayers' Union business agent, and County Judge Lloyd Rea, Baker. Scientists To Study Arctic MONTREAL ttv-Groups of Ca nadian and U.S. scientists are go ing Into voluntary Isolation In Ca nada's arctic regions nnd Alnskn ngaln this summer, seeklnr: to lenrn more about the mysterious living habits of plants and animals In northern waters. More than 30 research scientists will take part in the campaign the ninth of its kind organised by J the Arctic Institute of North Am erica, whose headquarters nre nt Montreal's McGtll University. Aided by grants from the Insti tute, the United States Navy and several foundations and corpora tions, the scientists will make "a concerted attack on problems of northern hydroblology," officials said today. Dr. D. V. Ellis of McGtll, has already started a lonely 18-month vigil on the northwest const to study shallow wnter flora and fauna. During the winter he will move to the northern tip of Baffin Island to continue his Investigation. Dr. P. F. Scholander of the Woods Hole. Mass., Oceanograpblc Institute and three assistants will work from a prefabricated labora tory on the bench of Hebron Fiord. Lnbrndor, to probe the secrets of fish life nt great ocean oeptns. Norman J. Wlllmovsky of Stan ford University. Palo Alto, Calif., will tape-record weird "sounds of the deep" which scientists have not yet been able to explain. He will work in Aiassa iroui landing craft especially equipped for underwater study. Another floating laboratory, the Arctic Institute's research vessel Blue Dolphin, will carry a team of scientists on ecological studies off Labrador to see how environment affects the behavior of tea animaic. No, 28s Suburban Annexation Meet Held By RCTH KING Dollars and cents conscious res idents of the south suburbs, pres ent at a mass meeting last ni?ht at P?!er:n School, sougtit answers on the proposal to annex a por tion of the area to the city of Klamath Falls In a move to al lev.ate the present critical sewage disposal problem south of the city limits. Tne meeting was divided 50-50 for and again3. the annexation proposition so it was agreed that petitions would be circulated throughout the district to deter mine what the majority of resi dents favored. About 2000 people are Involved In the district. QUESTIONS Questions were directed at a five-man panel; Including John Heyden, clerk of the Klamath County ' School Board: Harold Ashley, clerk of school boards of districts 1 and 2 In the city; Tru man Runyan, assistant manager or we uwillomia Oregon Power Company; Cal Peyton, Klamath' Falls businessman nnd George Proctor, attorney. Two sanitation experts, George Dagg, Klamath County Health De partment sanitarian and Dr. 8eth Kerron, Klamath Co-jnty Health officer, scheduled to appear, were not present. Some opposition developed to the plan for Including only a small portion of the' suburban area of some 10,000 persons In the annexa tion boundaries. , Panel members explained that the proposed area was only the starting point and that other sec tions can be included as Interest Is Indicated. SEWAGE DISTRICT The feasibility of formation of a sewage disposal district apart from Klamath Falls has not been taken under consideration due to the present . inadequate assessed valuation ol property within - the suggested area which totals only suuo.ixx), a figure lar Below that necessary to provide for floating a Dona issue. Assessed valuation within the city limits of Klamath Falls' is $14,298,000. If the plan advanced In a recent report made by John Cunningham and Associates for connecting the suburban district to trunk lines al ready - established In Klamath Falls Is developed, $000,000 would cover needs of the city system which Is now obsolete and inade quate. This would also provide a main trunk line for sewage dis posal in the area now being con sidered for annexation but would not provide sewerage lines throughout the annexation area. BOND LEVY A 4.6 mill levy to cover the $600,000 general obligation bond Issue would retire the bonds over a 12 year period. Cost of feeder lines necessary to tie Into the main trunk line was estimated at $3.50 per front foot of property.

Inertia Of France, Italy Scored WA8HTNOTON HI The Sen ate Foreign Relation Committee Saturday voted tentatively to choke off the flow of foreign nld to France andItaly next Dec. 31, unless they ratify by then the Eu ropean defense plan or some ac ceptable alternative. Sen. H. Alexander Smith (R NJ, the 3mmlttee's acting chair man, said the committee probably will send the muitl-bllllon dollar foreign aid bill to the Senate Mon dsy containing the tough provision unless the State Department pro tests that It would cause "some dire trouble." TOUGH LANGUAGE Smith said the language Is tougher than that already written Into the foreign aid measure by the House because It would cut In half the delivery of goods on order "In the pipeline" as he phrased it. Smith announced -the commit- tee had about completed the most controversial portions of . the bill In Its closed door meeting with decisions to: . 1. Accept s proposal by Sen. Knowland of California, the Sen ate Republican leader, requesting President Eisenhower to call sig nals for congressional action if the United Nations seats Red China over V. 8. protests. It also re affirms congressional opposition to seating the Felping regime. 2. Give Elsenhower authority to reallocate 800 million dollars of proposed support for the Indo china war if the fighting ceases there. . FUNDS SLICE 3. Stick to its action In slicing $347,708,000 from House-approved spending provisions In the bill, but left until Monday a decision ort where to apply the cuts. Knowland's amendment on Red China Is a toned down version of his original proposal that the Uni tes States serve notice on the U. ,N. that it would walk out if Bed 'm.t- H,.b- 4. Knowland reaffirmed his deter mination to resign as majority leader and lead the fight to pull this country and U. 8. financial support away from U. N. if the Reds are admitted, declaring '1 would do precisely what I said." Earlier this week, apparently under urging from the White House, Knowland offered soft ened amendment to the aid bill which would simply reiterate U. S. opposition to seating '-of the Reds if voted in over C.S. ob jections. . . English Urge Dulles Action LONDON Ml A - foreign .of fice spokesman said Saturday Bri tain has renewed with some ur gency Its suggestion that U.S. Sec retary of State John Foster Dulles return to the conference table at Geneva. - Foreign Secretary Anthony Ed en will fly to Geneva Monday as the Indochina conference resumes talks on the ministerial level. So viet Foreign Minister V. M. Molo tov Is already there. Red China' Premier Chou En-Lai is on his way. A new approach may be sug gested by French Premier Pierre Mendes-France. who will meet with Molotov Sunday. The British Foreign office view Is that the French premier's contribution may be so Important Dulles should be present personally to deal with his suggestions.
