In The - Bay's lews 0 P AIT LfU By FKAXK JENKINS Interesting note in the news: In the lirst eight months ot 1935. the people of Oregon nought HI, 853,593 worth, ot U.S. savings bonds. In the similar period ot 1954, tlitir .savin? s bond purchases amounted to s'M.aei.oei. That is an UP o! i9 per cent. There is a general impression over the country thai people are spending their money faster than they gel it that is to say, thai they are putting more on the cull in the way of installment pay menu man they are getting in the way of increased earnings. Thai doesn't seem to be true o the people of Oregon. They're tucking part of It away. That's THRIFT. Thrift is putting a Utile aside. Spending a little less every week Ulan you earn. In this modern age which in SO MANY ways is a wonderful age there is a lot of talk about SECURITY. How can one be secure? The best way is to put a little aside every week as the peo ple of Oregon have evidently been doing this year. Speaking of saving brings up another question: What shall one do with it after one has saved it? fThe answer: INVEST rr. How There are many good ways to Invest savings. There are government bonds. They are GOOD because the- Unit ed States of America is good. There are savings banks. There is insurance. There are the securi ties of our great corporations. The demagogs try to make us believe that our great corporations are owned by a few fat cats who spend their time thinking up new ways to gyp -the people. That isn't true. Our great cor porations are owned by MIL LIONS of people. Anyone who saves up a little money even as little as $100 can become a part owner of our great corporate en terprises. The big thing is to SAVE A LITTLE every week. If you can't do any better with Jt after you have saved it, put It in the sugar bowl in the kitchen closet. Or bufy it out in the back yard (that isn't good, for somebody will see you, sooner or later, and will dig it up some dark night when you aren't looking.) But it's better than not saving at all. The big point (if you want se curity) is to SAVE something oui of every pay cneck. Busmen Decide To End Strike . ST. LOUIS lid APL bus and streetcar operators, who had de lied orders of Gov. Phil M. Don' nelly and requests of their1 lead ers to end a crippling strike, vot- rd almost unanimously Friday to return to their jobs. The standing vote was taken af ter a mats meeting with union lead ers that lasted about 90 minutes. Although there was no official word from the union, operators re ported, they were returning to work Friday. Arthur East, union president, both urged the operators to return to work, East said it probably Would be 6aturday before normal service could be resumed but said partial service would be restored Friday. The union is faced with one court suit and the threat of other legal action for the strike which began Tuesday. The operators vote Wednesday to defy the governor's order to re turn to work by shouting down recommendations of their union of ficers. Yesterday, Missouri's Atty. Gen. John M. Dalton filed a Circuit Court suit for $30,000 against the union $10,000 for each day of the walkout so far. That action came under the state's King-Thompson law. which bans strikes against a public util ity. The governor seized the St. Louis Public Service Co. Tuesday, eight hours after the strike was called, as provided by the law.

Hoff man (R-Mich) accused Democrats on a House investigating commit tee Friday of digging up "real or fnncied grievances" . to embarrass the Eisenhower administration. He said they also are seeking "spe cial favors" for rural electric co operatives. ' Hoffman, peppery 80-year-old Michigan Republican, let loose with his blast as members of a House government operations sub committee took a breather until next Tuesday from their hearings on administration power policies. Hoffman aimed his criticism at chairman Chudoff (D-Pa) and his I subcommittee staff. He asserted in a statement that James Lanip.nn, subcommittee counsel, is a former Interior De partment attorney "not adverse to creating a situation which will reflect on the integrity" ot department oflicials, HIRED LOBBYIST Holfman also said ' associate counsel H. Vance Austin was a "hired lobbyist" for Colorado rural electric co-ops, who "has more than once been a Democratic candidate for public office." Austin is on leave of absence from his job as manager of the Colorado Assn. of Rural Electric Cooper atives. Hoffman said Austin and others on the committee "are attempting to discredit the Department of In terior, and to secure for Mr. Austin's employers special consid erations, special favors, to which under the law they are not en titled." The Interior Department admin isters the government's power program.-, Hoffman's statement was just the latest in a scries from both committee Democrats and Repub licans on what shaped up as a warm 1956 election campaign is sue. Chudoff. meanwhile, awaited some reply to a request sent Thursday to presidential aide Sher man AdHms for details on "sev eral" White House conferences in volving proposals to sell public power from the Clark Hill. Ga., hydroelectric project to the Georg ia Power Co. THE IDEA The idea was that the utility would transmit the power over its lines, and sell it to rural coopera tives! which bad no transmission lines of their own. The company at first refused, but has since tentatively agreed, to transport the power-without taking' title to it, in return for a lee ana a snare of the power output. In Atlanta, Ga., Harllee Branch Jr., president of Georgia Power Co., announced he conferred with Adams at the White House for 30 minutes last Dec. 20 in an effort to clear up a dispute over disposi tion of federal power from the Sa vannah River project. He said that followed a White House conference, including a talk with President Eisenhower, by rep resentatives of the cooperatives. Denouncing what he called Chud off's "insinuations" that his com pany received preferential treat ment. Branch said: "Shortly after this interview, we were informed that the govern ment intended to hold up action on our proposal and on the con tract dralt which had been pre pared by their own engineers and lawyers, in order to allow full op portunity for the co-ops to befurth er consulted and their interests fullv protected." CONFERENCES Asst. Secretary of Interior Fred G. Aandahl revealed that "sev crnl" conterences were held at the White House on policy affecting ithe Georgia Power dispute. He de clined to give details. Tne committee Thursday also heard from Ancher Nelscn, rural clctrlfication .administrator Nelsen denied charges that he had withheld REA loans to "force" lural transmission co-ops to inte grate their systems with private utilities in "shotgun weddings."

Price Five Cent 18 Pagea Commissions, On Irrigation The California and Oregon Klam ath River commissions yesterday reached a compromise agreement with John C. Boyle, vice president and general manager of the Califor nia Oregon Power Company aoout the handling of proposed "clarifi cations" to his letter to the com missions offering to guarantee wat er right priorities for irrigation in the Klamath Basin. The California commission had met requested that Boyle withdraw his,(e eitel., which" was" dated Sep- UUlIlHl Ituri ttuu auuaiitmc " dralt which they had written, and! which had been modified at Wednesdays meeting of the two commissions. I Boyle refused lo do this, sayin? 1 that the original letter had be- come "a public record." ine com-;;ma missioned then proposed that tne commissions .write a letter to Cop- j i-o giving their interpretation of j Bojie's original letter, w h i c t Boyle then could answer, stating I any diflcrences in interpretation. BOYLE AGREES Boyle agreed to this procedure. and the letter will be written at a ; staff meeting ot the two commis sions Wednesday in Sacramento. The original letter had been writ ten as the result of another com promise. The commissions had desired that the proposed renewed con tract between Copco and the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation concerning the operation of Link River Dam in Klamath Falls contain a provi sion guaranteeing the priority of water for irrigation of non-project land over power generation. The contract contains a similar nrnvisinn mrantin. iirioation nt federal project land Both the bureau and Copco ar- Copco Ready To Build Dam John C. Boyle, vice president and general manager of the Cal ifornia Oregon Power Company yesterday told representatives of the California and Oregon Klam ath River commissions at a meet ing here that Copco was willing and ready to ro ahrnd on construc tion of the Iron Gate regulatory dam downstream from Copco 1 and 2 power plants. The dam should provide regu lation of the flows of the Klamath River below the power plants. Ai present, the lower Klamath fluct uates quite heavily. According to Nelson Reed, chairman of the Oregon commis sion. Boyle said that various Cali fornia agencies would have to reach agreement on the type and size of dam wished and the type of regulation desired. Another prerequisite cited bv Boyle would be the settlement of the pending suit Between Copco and the California Department of Fish and Game concerning the dam. Reed said. He said that the organizations mentioned by Boyle included vari ous sportsmen's groups, riparian water right owners and the De partment of Fihh and Game.

They offered to guarantee the power company the right to develop any falling water created for power purposes. Boyle said he would consider the matter further when he re ceived the letter from the com missions.

Compb&ini Terms Okayed In Principle; Final Draft Due Wednesday Ry DICK HUBBKl.I. The California and Oregon Klam ath River commissions. In a Joint meeting here yesterday, reached final agreement in principle on the provisions of the proposed inter state compact on the use of the waters of the Klamath River. The final text of the proposed compact draft will be prepared at a drafting committee meeting Wednesday in Sacramento, and will be made public shortly thereafter. Following Wednesday's meeting, copies of the draft will be given all state, federal and private agen cies concerned with the use of Klamath River water, and written comments will be asked. Then, public hearings will be held, and the compact will be submitted to the legislatures of both slates for approval. Following legislative approval, the compact must be approved by Uie Congress and the President.

Although there la a possibility that California might hold a special session on water matters next spring, a staff mem ber of California commission said that It would probably not be dis cussed. The actual text of the compact could be changed at any of these stages, the California staff mem ber said. Commissioners Indicated that they intended to hold one of the public hearings In Klamath Falls because it "Is the center of the whole deal," as one phrased it. STUMBLING BLOCKS The two major stumbling blocks overcome at yesterday's meeting ere provisions relating to wild life and pollution control. The commissioners decided that the permanent commission created when the compact goes into ef fect will not attempt to manage wildlife preserves, but will have a veto power over any changes in wnter use by wildlife agencies, state, federal or private. The actual provision In the compact will In elude a "preai..ole" which will explain that due lo water conser vation needs, such regulation was deemed necessary. The commissioners also decided that the permanent commission would not have police powers to control water pollution on the river. The commission will merely have advisory and Investigative power over pollution In one state which damages the other. " ABLE TO SUE If the damaging stale refuses to clear up the situation, the dam aged state will be able to sue, the aame a at prcaenti The commission to W created under the compaotwlll consist of seven men, three from each state and a non-voting federal represen tative who will be chairman.

Rain, Winds Roar Along Hazel Path NEW YORK m A frisky autumn storm not a hurricane but trying to act like one thrust north ward along the East Coast Friday in almost exactly tho same path taken by disastrous Hurricane Hn.el just a year ago. By noon the storm center was off the Virginia Coast, with near hurricane velocity winds belting areas as tar distant as New Jer sey. Atlantic City recorded gusts up to (10 miles an hour Just 15 miles short ot hurricane strength. It reached 55 miles at New York City. LASHING Lashing rains, already close to the 6-Inch mark In many sectors, flooded homes and highways in spots as widely separated as Mount Vernon, Ga., and Oeneva, N.x. Weather Bureaus all along the northern coast warned of batter ing high tides and heavy down pours Friday night, perhaps flood ing anew many of the places strick en by high waters only a short time ago after Hurricane Diane. By early Friday, with the storm center still hours away, Washing ton, D.C.. already had been de l'lged by more than 4 Yx inches ot rain. More than 100 persons had to be evacuated by boat from Hooded homes in nearby localities. And as far northward as El- mlra, N.Y., creeks were reported over their banks and roads closed. The downpour there was measured itt 2 inches as of mid-morning.

The 7 a.m. MST bulletin on Ihe President's condition said: "The President had a good night's sleep of more than eight hours. He awoke fueling refreshed and cheerful. His condition contin ues to progress satisfactorily with out complications." Thus Mr. Elsenhower began his birthduy. an occasion to be ob served within the careful limits prescribed for a man recovering from a coronary thrombosis. Instead of a lavish party and opulent gifts normally associated with such an occasion, Mr. Eisen hower's observance of his birth day wa confined to bedside visits from his wife, low-calorie meals, another electrocardiogram and blood pressure examination, and possibly a thin slice of cake be fore the day Is over. Health Officials Warn Hunters The county health department today warned hunters who butcher their own deer to be sure to prop erly dispose of waste matter. Several complaints nave been received that dogs have been car rying around parts ot deer. A health spokesman said that deer should be carefully disposed nl the same as normal garbage to cold. "And he's wonderful with them." she said ol Holt. "He kept them strapped down most of the time. We expectt-d bedlam but they were really good." She said they ale mostly rice and milk on the flight.
