Ohio River
Flood Moves
Downstream
POMEROY. Ohio W This vil
lage of 4,000, as accustomed to
high water as the next one, waited
without any apparent excitement
today as the Ohio River's latest
eruption moved downstream.
It was hardly a flood Just high
water. The Ohio's Sunday punch
was spent, and nearly all the force
that brought death and destruction
upstream appeared to be gone.
The cold, muddy waters which
had taken four lives Sunday in
Pittsburgh were expected to in
vade only a few bottom lands in
these parts.
Autumn rains tore the river from
its banks Sunday In Pittsburgh and
400 families evacuated at Wheel
ing, W. Va. The crest at Wheel
ing was 44.7 feet, nearly g feet
above flood stage.
Its flood force apparently spent,
the river leaked Into some low
lands downstream, where alerted
farmers had hastily picked their
late corn. Occupants of lowland
arms had cleared some basements
but feared no first-floor damage.
At Belpre In Washington Coun
ty, Ohio, Police Chief Earl W".
Walker reported the crest at 37.6
feet, about 1.5 feet abovo flood
stage,
At Wheeling, city officials chal
lenged a. large damage estimate.
Ono official said reports of the
damage were ' exaggerated."
The Wheeling New-Register said
the flood caused "no very serious
property damage." The paper
made its reply to an estimate by
the Army Corps of Engineers,
which set flood damage at $6,700,
000 for the Wheeling area.
Wheeling City Manager Robert
L. Plummer said, "I can't con
ceive of any such figure as that."
There was no Immediate com
ment from the engineer's office
at Pittsburgh.
Col. Edgar B. Sykcs. West Vir
ginia; civilian defense director, said
not taore than 39 to SO families
actually evacuated their homes.
Others, he said, may have left
vo'untarlly or rode out the flood
with friends on higher ground.
The Wheeling mtelligencer sold,
"Virtually all the mayors of other
towns and municipalities In the
Wheeling area agreed that outside
reports of evacuations and dam
ages had been exaggerated,."
Churchill Hopes
For Meeting
With Malenkov
LONDON Wl Prime Minister
Churchill said Tuesday he re
mains ready to meet Soviet Fro
ntier Ocorgl Malenkov "at some
SRieed place on rendezvous If the
right time and occasion Is found."
The Prime Minister made the
statement In the House of Com

Secretary Anthony Eden previous
ly made It clear they sre prepared
to discuss world disarmament nt
any level "or to employ any other
means which may bcsl help us to
wards agreement on a sale and
fair disarmament program and on
ciher great issues,"
Attitude Of
Drivers Scored
CHICAGO Wl The average
motorist Is suffering from a case
of bad altitudes, safety experts
were told Tuesday.
That dlngnosls was mode by five
members of the Cincinnati Psycho
logical Aran, at the National Solely
Conirrcss.
The malady was defined by C.
T. Pcrln Jr. of Miami (Ohio) Uni
versity as failure to "think solely
and let our actions be governed
by such thoughts."
Such thinking, he said, does not
require a high level of Intelligence.
Just enough for the driver to un
derstand the rules of safety, real
ise their importance and apply
them.
Mrs. Betty B. Montgomery of the
Cincinnati Child Welfare Service
snld high school courses In driving
should emphasize attitudes over
the teaching of mechanlcnl skills.
She suid the youngster who
learns to drive by Initialing his
friends "will almost always end up
as a. daring, reckless speedster."

COMPLETELY AMAZED was Suzie when she , learned facts
about Red Cross' blood program on a tour of United Fund
agencies and Red Cross: that the bloodmobile collects blood
four times yearly; but that from 16 to 20 pints are returned
weekly and stored in hospital blood banks. Much of its value
depends on blood being instantly available; because of Red
Cross, blood is assured for usa in highway and hunting ac
cidents and emergency surgery. Local users pay for hospital
costs of crossmatching and infusion; not for blood. Last year,
if commercial blood were used, it would have cost more than
$14,000. The value in saving lives is beyond computation.
Red Cross pays cost of collecting, typing and processing
blood, about $5 a pint. ......
New Soft Russian Policies
Studied By West Diplomats
UNITED NATIONS ,N.Y. W
Western diplomats ore trying to
.'othom the motive beneath Rus
sia's apparent softening on Issues
that, have deadlocked U.N. coun
cils for years.
.Those diplomats, who hove
learned from experience that the
Kremlin rarely gives ground on
one point without trying to regain
it on another,. are lending a wary
tar to conciliation statements by
Chief soviet Delegate Andrei Vlsh
insky and his aides.
These overtures which pointed
ly exclude the United States ap
pear aimed at splitting America
from her allies and winning friends
for Russia.
With the current assembly ses
sion still in the opening stage, the
Soviets already hove mode cooper
ative gestures on disarmament,
Trieste and other Issues on which
Ihey had long been adamant.
First sign of a shift In Soviet
tactics came two weeks ago when
Vishlnsky offered a disarmament
plan based largely on the British
French proposals which the Rus
sians hod bitterly rejected only
tour months earlier.
Pressed by Britain and France
for concrete evidence os to just

in agreement with the West, Vish
lnsky offered In general terms to:
1. Wtthdrow Russia's long-stand
ing demand for an immediate ban
cn atomic weapons and agree to
start instead with step-by-step re.
duction of conventional' arms. '
2. Agree to an International dis
armament parley if the other pow
ers concur.
3; Agree to inspection of Russia's
arsenals "to the point necessary lo
insure the Implementation of the
disarmament plan."
But Vishlnsky refused to answer
directly when Britain's Selwyn
Lloyd asked him whether Russia
would agree to establishment of a
control organ empowered to enter
the nations concerned to see wheth
ur they were carrying out pro
visions cf the disarmament plan.
The climax came when Russia
mode a conditional offe. to co
sponsor a Western proposal for fur.
ther negotiations on disarmament
and atomic control.
Canada originator of the reso
lution to set up a five-power sub
committee to continue arms talks
-has been sounding out the Rus
ians to see how far they would
tone down their proposed amend
ments.
U.S. circles have voiced concern
thai one Soviet proviso to limit
the committee talks to the Angl
French and Russian plans would
bar consideration of American rec.
ommendations for a control organ
empowered to ensure compliance
in arms reduction.
Vishinsky uncorked another sur
prise last week when he gave an
approving nod to tne wesi-spon
sored Trieste agreement between
Italv and Yugoslavia instead oi
blosting it as epxected. In the past
the Russians have demanded a lull
soy in any disposition of the Trieste
case.
The Russlons have also offered
to make concessions on their pet
U.N. project to establish a defi
nition of aggression.
To meet Western objections that
Russia's proposed definition left
too many loopholes for would-be
aggressors, the Soviets Agreed to
add a clause. This would provide
that an act not included in the defi
nition might constitute aggression
if the Security Council so defined
it. .
Observers pointed out, however.
that the Russians hold veto power
in the council and could block any
move that did not please them.
These new Russian moves
hailed by mony neutrol powers
have placed the West on the de
fensive. Western delegates realize that if
they reject the afters, they put
themselves In the nosition of hm-
derlng the cause of peace. On the
other hand, they are fearful of foil
ing Into a propaganda trop ond
committing themselves to some'
tiling they might later regret.
As one veteran diplomat com- j
mented: "The Russians have soi
far committed themselves to noth-1
ing. They are merely talking to
see if they con pick up some sup-!
port. Talk is cheap and the Krem-I
Un is well aware of .the value of!
propaganda."

The American officer in direct

Most ol the German officers have

A POWER-FULL
The federal dam program of
the past twenty years brought
us more free enterprise than
we'd ever known before.
Low-cost power attracted
new industry; provided 800,
000 new jobs in the West, in
chemical plants, 11,000 in tight
mefa!, 11,000 in atomic ener
gy plants, 1S.000 in aircraft,
56,000 in scruice industries;'
Oregon industry is depend
ent on low-cost power. 'First,
Oregon has nothing except
water power to provide needed
industrial energy. We haven't
enough oil, gas, or coal.
Second, Oregon doesn't have
a world monopoly on potential
low-cost power sites. If indus
try can't get cheap power here,
it will find it somewhere else.
We saw that trend begin when
aluminum paiifsu'ent toTeras
and Canada because of our
power situation.
Adoption of the McKay
Coon partnership scheme will
not help. Partnership power
means high-cost power ; a pro
gram that will discourage new
industry and limit free en
terprise. In fighting for full develop
ment of the Columbia, we are
not trying to drive any power
company out of business. Fed
eral power will provide low
cost electricity which cannot

Facts show private com
panies have grown and pros
pered under this program.
Cheap industrial power will
encourage new business and
create hundreds ef new cus
tomers for private power.
This program will bring the
fullest and most conservative
use of our natural resources
to all Eastern Oregon more

home markets for farm prod

we have ever seen before.
