Silver Lake Trip Held CHEMULT George Larimer, RE A manager at La Pine, and board directors Bud Parks, Fort Rock, Grant Damon and William M. Taylor, Chcmult, went with a Trallwny bus load of men from Bend and a group from Lakevlew to make -a survey trip in the Fort Rock-Sliver Lake country to study the features to be benefited by en ergizing this large rural acreage. In 1008 the tiny community of Fremont was a thriving cattle country with a busy cheese fac tory. One of the men In the party from Bend helped to pioneer the country. In that day there was plenty of water and tall range grass for cattle. Many of the World War I veterans selected home steads in the area. As time went on the country got drier and drier till home after home was aban doned and some left so hnstily lhat clothes were left hanging on the nails In the bedrooms and porch es. For lack of water the country has remained abandoned in the most part with the exception ol the large ranches near Silver Lake, Fort Rock, and Paisley. Now with the hope of electricity at reasonable rates It Is estimated that the once rich land could be made to produce for half of what it Is now costing on the ranches where wells are being used. Lunch was served to the party by the Fort Rock Grange ladles and speakers Included the county extension ngent and Attorney For est Cooper, Lakeview. Tlie Big Century Ranch owned by Phil Pitman was visited and all viewed what was being done on the 600 acres under cultivation to barley and alfalfa. There are four wells in operation now at an aver age depth of 26 feet pumping over &00 gnllons a minute. Pitman is signed up for six more wells when the REA line is energized. The wells on the Pitman Century Ranch carry 8 Inch to 10 Inch pipe. The group visited the "Hole In the around" that Is at least seven hundred feet deep and over a mile across. The hole Is supposedly a crater made by a great meteor French Premier Faces EDC Crisis AHer English Talk PARIS '.Vt French Premier Pierre Mendes-France wrestled with the Europepn army crisis today as a cross fire of demands mounted in his own country for acceptance or rejection of the con troversial sfx-n a t i o n defense treaty. Mendes-France flew back to meet his Cabinet today after a hurried conference in Britain yes teiday with British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. The Premier reported last night to French President Rene Coty at the Normandy resort of Bagiioles de L'Orne, filling the President in on his secret talk with Churchill and his failure at the six-nation Brussels conference to Ret approv al of the sweeping revisions he demanded In the European De fense Community pact. bniuy health, ret, eomtort end hnipitolih, amicht plortt uriourdlrtgi.

Dr. Ho r man Wevter, Director Chiropractic Physician I ''BALDY" EVANS PROUDLY PRESENTS Barley Prices Lower In '54 Barley prices, although not as high as last vear at this time, are belter than was expected earlier, report agricultural economists at Oregon State College. Reasons for this current strength in the market have be come apparent during the last few days, the economists explain. Growers are now better pre pared to take advantage of govern ment loans on barley. Much stor age has been added on farms and some new space is available at shipping points. Quality of malting varieties has been lowered by unfavorable wea ther In some Important producing areas. The Western Oregon crop is expected to be good unless rain comes during harvest. Canada is expected to offer less barley for export this year, the economists say. Important also is the fact that corn has made a very poor show ing in the midwest and corn prices are now higher than a year ago. The economists warn that de spite these new evidences of strength, this year's near - record barley crop seems large enough to keep prices under last fall's mark et. Odds seem against much fur ther strength in baTley before January. Prices may go lower If the corn crop improves. Money Clogs Up Wishing Well DETROIT tt Workmen cleaned out a wishing well at the Detroit Institute of Arts yesterday and found $1,206.07 in small change. The well was placed in the lobby several years aao when Institute of ficials sought to discourage visi tors from tossina; pennies in a foun tain exhibit. The pennies clogged the fountain and resulted in high repair bills. The money will be used to pur chase new exhibits lor the mu seum. long ago. Approval has passed in Washing ton. D.C. for the appropriation of lunds for building the lines to en ergize the Port Rock-Silver Lake area. In a few years time this country may become prosperous once again like the Redmond -Madras - Culver country with the coming of cheaper electricity and Irrigation. This country is mostly black sage desert and rich soil which needs water for development. If Churchill and Mendes-France decided upon any alternative to EDO durinij their talk yesterday, it was a lop diplomatic secret. Alter the four-hour meeting, they announced only that they had agreed to "early and practical steps" to maintain Western unity. Official sources disclosed they reviewed all possible alternatives ior rearming West Germany and restoring full sovereignty to the Bonn government If EDC fails. Facing Mendes-France was the grave decision on whether to try for another new set of modifica tions in the EDC treaty or let the French National Assembly begin a latification debate, scheduled for Saturday, on the pact as it stands. , The Premier himself had insisted that the modifications he de manded at Brussels were necessary to win French ratification. Some members of his Cabinet favor- the pact as it stands, but others oppose it unless It is drastically altered. Whichever way the Premier swings be is bound to lose support. DOUBT There was some doubt among politicians today whether his Cab inet could survive the treaty de bate. Former Premier Antoine Plnay, a supporter of EDC, suggested last night that the six West Euro peon allies go ahead with the scheme for an 18-month "trial mar riage" period. They should put it into effect as originally drafted, he said, but agree that any of the members could call a conference for revision of impractical features for the first 18 months. This peri od could be extended if necessary. "At least, let's get started," Plnay told a news conference. "Otherwise we may find the other five countries organizing without France." Plnay said his proposal had the support of the powerful Popular Republican Movement (MRP) whose members are among EDC's chief French backers. INSISTS Georces Rirlnult nft.ntlma. fn eign minister and an MRP spokes man, also insisted that France back EDC as it stands. He de scribed the formula as the . only one "which can organize protection either for OermntlV nc ammn. for the free world without danger eitner ior Germany or anyone else."

Man's centuries-old -dream of getting power directly from the sun has come true at last. Bell Telephone Laboratories has built a sonf battery that directly and efficiently turns sunlight into usable electricity. Made of highly purified silicon which comes from common sand the Bell solar battery can run a small radio set (above) or send voices over telephone wires. Telephone people are still testing it. But chances are good that, once they finish, the Bell solar battery will offer great opportunities for improvement and economies in telephone service.
