PAGE FOUR Governor To Tour State To Tell Voters Of Slate OAKLAND (UPI) - Gov. Ed fnund G. Brown launched a whirl' wind two-day border to border tour of California today to tell the voters of the achievements of bis Democratic administration. Although he has been in office only three and a half months, Brown proudly told audiences here and Eureka that his administration already has chalked up these Victories: It has won passage of a fair employment practices bill which he said is tne most significant act ef his administration so far. It has secured legislative ap proval of his proposal to earmark the 172 million dollar tidelands oil fund as a down payment en the Feather River Project. In addition, Brown confidently predicted that before the Legisla ture adjourns June 19 it will en act a "fair and equitable new tax program to keep California sol Vent." . ' And he added that he is confi dent the lawmakers will vote ap Atom Power May Hold Key To Water 1 SACRAMENTO (UPD-Nuclear-power may hold the key to Cal ifornia's future water develop ment, an Assembly committee re ported today. Ending a two-year Investigation. committee headed by Assembly man Jack A. Beaver (R-Redlands) reported to the Legislature: "The key to the successful solu tion of California's water prob lems lies in. the development of all new sources of low-cost ener gy. The tme of economic nuclear power is near at hand." The committee urged full federal-state cooperation in construct ing and operating a nuclear-powered salt water conversion plant in California. It conceded that present costs ef converting salt water are gen erally much higher than for water develoDcd from other sources. But the committee said it feels that establishment of a major saline water conversion plant of not less than a million gallons a day capa city would provide a real test of laboratory theories that atomic en ergy can make material reduc tions in cost. The Assembly group also report ed that an all-out investigation should be made to determine if the pumping plants for the pro posed Feather River Project should be powered by nuclear en ercv. "It appears that the cost of off Beak electricity tn the future, when major Delta diversion and transmountain pumping faculties would be in use, may be promm tive for lane scale water trans portation," the committee report and. "Developments in the nuclear energy field . . . could lead to power costs substantially below those of today. The state already has embarked on an extension research program In both salt water conversion plants and the potential of nuclear energy for power generation. A nuclear energy unit has been created in the Department of Wa ter Resources and the University or California and its radiation la boratory at Livermore aro carry ing on extensive experiments in aline water conversion and nu clear power. The state likewise has put up $40,000 as its share of the $100,000 cost of designing a sea water con version plant powered by a nu clear reactor. - Beaver said he was confident uch a plant will be built and in operation in California "in the near future." Members of the Beaver commit tee include Jack Scharde (R-San Diego), Bruce Sumner (R-Santa Ana), Pauline L. Davis (D-Por- tola), William Biddick Jr. D- Stockton). Allen Miller (D-San Fernando) and ex-Assemblyman Francis Lindsay (li-Loonus).

"We are moving boldly and de cisively forward into California's era of greatness, he said. The governor claimed that when he took over from the Republi cans la;t January "California had lost its forward momentum. "Some may disagree with some of the things we have done," he said, "But 1 think no one would deny that we have worked and worked effectively. In addition to enacting an FEPC, Brown said the Legislature was close to approving three other im portant measures creation of an office of consumer counsel, crack ing down on abuses in installment selling, and starting a new econ omic development agency to pro vide new jobs. Brown defended his proposal to enact a minimum wage law which would compel farmers to pay workers at least 90 cents an hour, "I appreciate the competitive problems of California's farmers with respect to the produce from states where farm wages are even lower, the governor said. "But I am determined that we shall lead, not follow; and 1 am determined that all Californians shall share in this great state's prosperous future. The governor said in his speech here he intends to appoint a gov ernor's committee on employment and retirement problems of older workers to be headed by Arthur Ross, director of the Institute of Industrial Relations at the Univer sity of California at Berkeley.

The truck driver told officers he swung into the center lane in or der to clear his extra-long load of freight of the curb during a right turn onto South Sixth Street.

Damage to Cole s vehicle was considerable, officers said. No ci tations were issued and no injuries resulted. Officers investigated a report by Robert Harris of 457 Laguna Street that vandals let air out of his tires, broke the gear shift and tore the tailpipe loose on his car while it was parked at Radio Station KFJI Saturday morning.

Mount Shasta Tree Nursery, Provide Clue Heart Disease associates of Bowman Gray School oi medicine, winston-balem, re ported they had discovered at least one variety of pigeons ful filling a long and hitherto fruit less search by science for "an in expensive and readily available animal with spontaneous athero sclerosis." Atherosclerosis, which gets part of its name from the Greek word athero, meaning porridge, is condition in which a mush ma terial accumulates on the inner lin:ng of blood vessels, thus nar rowing the passageways for blood. The condition is the cause of coronary heart attacks and cere bral strokes in man. The search for its specific origin and for meanr to prevent it constitutes one of the great efforts of medi cal science. , In laboratory research, sci entists have reproduced it arti ficially in a number of animal species. But the ideal laboratory subject is an animal which gets the disease naturally. The few animals that do so have been ex pensive or difficult to procure, thus hindering research, the North Carolina doctors said. , They told about the pigeon find in a scientific exhibit prepared for the opening of the 43rd an nual meeting of the Federation of American Societies for Expert mental Biology. Researchers H. B. Lofland, R. W. Prichard and M. G. Net sky were the other three authors of the report. A They said they examined two breeds of pigeons one called the "White Carneau," the other called "Show Racer." Both breeds were kept under identical conditions of diet, physi cal activity and housing and, aft er a period of time, were sacri ficed and studied for evidence of atherosclerosis. The "White Carneaus" had it, and the abnormalities disclosed in the blood vessels were "striking ly similar to those of human be ings." None of the other breed had it. "The difference between the two breeds appears unrelated to sex diet, age or physical activity,' the doctors reported, adding that it is possible the development of the condition in the White Car neaus may be related in part to genetic factors. Biochemical studies of the pi geon disease including its mode and rate of development, the ef fects of diet and interbreeding and a search for means of pre ventionare now under way.
