Faure Gets
Confidence
Vote Victory
PARIS l The French Nation
al Assembly (rave another vote of
confidence to Premier Edzar Faure
Saturday night. Officially, Faure
won, 2S5 to 247. Actually, he prob
ably iias lost his gamble for De
cember elections.
He won only throuKh the help of
rbout 99 Communist votes. The
Communists announced that they
were "refusing confidence" In the
government, but were plugging ior
quick elections.
Immediately before the vote the
Premier told a Cabinet meeting lie
had no will to continue In office
If he was kept Uiore only through
the help of the Communists. It
teemed unlikely President Bene
Coty would permit him to resign,
however, before ho had been de
feated on a vole.
- Many of the deputies admitted
that thrdigh Saturday's vote they
were only delaying a decision un
til next week. One of the reason
advanced was that a crisis would
be inopportune right now. Presi.
dent Coty's wife died early Satur
rim'
CotV sent word Uie vote fhould
go on as scheduled, despite the
death, and said he would be avail
able for consultations with political
leaders In case ti.o government
was overthrown.
Faure had asked for the vote of
confidence on the question of end
ing the mandate of the present As
sembly on Jan. 2, wil'i elections
to be held next month under a
lystem of modified proportional
representation.
The upper house of Parliament,
the Council of the Republic, is
strongly in favor of a district sys
tem of voting. The senators this
week approved the Idea of early
elections, but tacked on a provi
sion for the district system, simi
lar to that In the United States.
Back In tho As.iem.jly early
Thursday, the deputies turned
down the district system for the
third time. Faure then suggested
the vote of confidence on the pro
portional repi esentatlon system
used in 1051. minus Its most crl
tlclzcd provision.
This portion permitted party al
llanccs getting more than half the
vote to lane an mo seats in a
department (county).
The changed system as suggest-
td by Faure is bound to incicase
the Communist strength In the As
sembly. Some estimates go as high
ns 60 additional scats for the Reds,
who now have 94. Other more con
servative guesses say 20 to 40.
Many of those who voted for the
government Saturday night were
bitterly opposed to anv change
which would liolp the Communists,
but were hoping tor another chance
to change this next week.
The bill now goes back to the
Senate, which Is believed certain
to turn It down again insist on the
msiricb system,

the 20th annual meeting of the

latlon, November 17 to 19, at Gear

ing will be hosted by the Clatsop
and Columbia county livestock as
sociations, reports secretary Har
ry Llndgren of Corvallts, former
Oregon State College livestock spe
cialist. Main speakers Include James
Short, director of the state depart
ment of agriculture, Joseph Mc
cracken, Portland, executive vice
president of the Western Products

mer governor Al Norblad as ban
quet master of ceremonies.
New legislation concerning live

Timber Growth Falling Short
Of Nation's Future Needs
Present annual timber growth
will fall far short of the na
tlon's estimated needs SO years
from now. according to a 3'i-year
national Inventory of forest. But
much of the deficit can be picked
up through better forest manage
ment, especially on sman pnvmc
holdings, believes Charles Ross,
Oregon State College farm forestry
specialist.
Ross says the survey conducted
by the U.S. forest service with as
sistance from state and private
foresters estimates a national need
of between 70 and 95 billion board
feet of timber annually by the
year 2000. production iiiuieasco
ranging from 70 to 120 per cent
above present annual growth would
be needed to meet me aemanu.
Estimates are based in pari upon
an expected national population of
270 million persons by the turn
of the century compared with 165
million now.
Small private owners of wood
landsfarmers for the most part
made the poorest showing when
foresters appraised recently cut
lands to determine their present
and future productivity. "Produc
tivity" was measured by young
trees already established, seed
trees left and seed bed conditions.
The small privately-owned wood
lands in the Pacific Northwest
lagged far behind Industry-held
lands in meeting potential produc
tivity, Ross stated. Only 55 per
cent of farm forests and other
non-Industry private lands rated In
the "high productivity" group. By
contrast, 78 per cent of lands re
cently cut by western lumber man-

Davidson said that (lie FPC li
censing will be fought in the courts
on these grounds:.
1. That the FPC did not follow
provisions of the Federal Power
Act when It "sidestepped" the is
sue of maximum resource devel
opment. 2. That it failed to state reasons
in law or fact and that Its findings
and conclusions were evasive an
misleading.
3. That the decision was not
made on the examining record,
nor did it purport to be, and that
material outside the record was
used.
Davidson said that subcommit
tees of the House and Senate had
approved programs for starting a
federal Hells Canyon dam, and
that the bill will be presented to
Iho full committees when Congress
reconvenes.
Asked Bbout Idaho Power Co.'s
recent announcement that It was
letting contracts for start of con
struction, Davidson said that was
part of a propaganda campaign.
"Nowhere have I seen it mentioned
where any completion date Is given
to the contractor." Ordinarily, he
said, such contracts stale comple
tion dates and list penalties for
failure to meet the dates.
Asked If money now being spent
by Idaho Power Co. would become
an obligation against the federal
government in the event courts
overrule the FPC. Davidson said:
"We have several theories along
this line, but 1 would not care to
discuss them at tills time."
He said that he doubted whether
the power company could get fi
nancing for the dams until the
courts have taken action on the
association's complaint. "I have
yet to see where any financial
committments have been offered,"
he declared.
The association unanimously re
elected these officers: James T.
Mnrr, Portland, president: Vlnce
Cleveland, Vancouver, Wash., vice
president: Elmer McClure, Mil

on the lookout for the spotted alf
alfa aphid in cooperation with
state department of agriculture of
ficials next spring.
Rltcher, who was recently
named chairman of a western
states regional research projects to
exchange information on pests of
clover and alfalfa, said spread of
the Insect is mushrooming through
the west. Alfalfa growers in Tul
are County, California, alone re-,
ported $2 million damage this year,
year.
In 1954, the insect caused an
estimated damage to alfalfa of $4
million In New Mexico and $500,
000 in Arizona. Last year, it made
its first heavy inroads in California
and reduced some Nevada alfalfa
stands by 86 per cent. Serious in
festations have also occurred in
parts of Oklahoma, Texas, Utah,
Kansas and Nebraska. Rltcher
says It is a threat to all alfalfa
producing regions.
The aphid is pale yellow, 1-16 to
a Inch long with rows of black
spots on its back. The alfalfa aphid
is oftentimes mistaken for1 the pea
aphid, also a pest of alfalfa. The
alfalfa aphid, however, is about
half as long as the pea aphid
which is light green and does not
have spots on its body.
The aphid damages alfalfa In
several ways. They suck Juices
from the leaves, causing them to
curl, turn yellow and drop off. At
the same time, they may Inject
a toxin that interferes with plant
growth. They also secrete a sticky
honeydew that interferes with har
vesting and drying and reduces
hav quality..
Research elsewhere Indicates
several defenses against the aphid,
Ritchcr reports. They include In
secticides, alfalfa varieties that
Rltcher reports. They Include in
sect's attack, and studies of other
Insects and parasites that prey
upon the aphid.
