Legislators Prepared
To Wage Water Battle
SACRAMENTO (UPI) - The
threat of an all out fight between
north and south hung over the
Legislature today despite Gov. Ed
mund G. Brown's efforts to work
out a compromise on the water
issue.
Brown's proposal to solve the
long-standing deadlock met with
some qualified votes of approval
from southern legislators, some
enthusiastic endorsement by Dem
ocrats but a great deal of opposi
tion from northern senators of both
parties.
it is in a northern-dominated
Senate Group
Approves
Smog Bill
SACRAMENTO (PI) - A bill
creating an Air Pollution Control
District in eight counties of San
Joaquin Valley Wednesday won
approval from the Senate Com
mittee on Local Government.
The bill was voted out of com
mittee after Sen. James A. Cobey
(D-Merced) agreed to make some
substantial revisions.
Amendments adopted provide
that - voters in all eight counties
of (be proposed district will have
a chance to decide whether the
district should be formed. Like
wise, the amendments provide
that a districtwide election can be
held to dissolve the district al
though separate counties would
not be permitted to withdraw
once the district was formed
Cobey said the. valley already
nas smog damage.
"It is high time we adopt a valley-wide
solution at once." .
Cobey said his measure, which
has the backing of Gov. Edmund
G. Brown, was a "halfway point
between a statewide program and
local autonomy."
, Counties which would be includ
ed in the proposed district are
Fresno, Kern, Kings. Madera.
Merced. San Joaqthn, Stanislaus
and Tulare.
The governing board of the dis
trict would be composed of one
supervisor from each county plus
one city Councilman or mayor to
represent the municipalities with
in each county.
Amendments adooted earlier in
the week specifically exempt from
the enforcement provisions of the
act fires set by or permitted by
the county agricultural commis
sioner, or fires set by or per
mitted by the state forester for
watershed, range or pasture
provement.

Pile Strike
May Spread
PORTLAND (AP)-Union nil.
drivers threatened today to ex
tend their slrike but a feared eon-
eral tie-up of the construction in
dustry in Oregon and southwest
Washington did not result.
So far the only jobs affected
have been the handful in the
Portland area where pile driver
pickets turned up. Other workmen
respected the picket lines.
Ray Coles, the union's business
agent, said, however, that more
pickets would be going out soon
tie did not specify the jobs, but
aid there would be pickets where-
ever pile drivers work, whether
Ihcy are engaged in pile driving or
not.
Pile drivers work as carpenters
when not actually engaged in Bile
driving.
The strike began Wednesday
with pickets appearing at three
highway construction jobs in Port
land. These were the Porter Street
overpass and the Barbur-Tcrwil-llger
ramp, both on the Portland
Salem freeway: and the airport
82nd Ave. connection in northeast
Portland.
A spokesman for the Associated
General Contractors said today he
had not been able to learn wheth
er any more jobs were being
picketed today. Union officials
could not be reached.
Both sides are scheduled for a
negotiating session, arranged
through federal mediation, next
Monday.
Senate committee that the Issue
will be decided.
A group of 19 senators Wednes
day registered their opposition to
Brown's compromise, and the
governor immediately began call
ing them to his executive suite in
an effort to change their minds.
Sen. Richard Richards of Los
Angeles, who often voices the
south s position on water matters,
said he -personally believes that
if the governors program
amended by northern senators
will provoke a full-fledged fight
-me governor s program is an
absolute minimum right now as
far as the south is concerned,1
Richards told reporters. "If they
(the north) take away more, it
won't be acceptable. Then the
fight will be on.
Richards said the fate of the
entire program would be decided
by the Senate Water Committee,
which has scheduled a hearing on
urown s proposals Friday after
noon. The jcommittee is made un
of nine senators from north of the
Tehachapls and four southerners
"What happens on Friday can
wen decide whether or not a wa
ter solution is reached at this ses
sion." Richards said.
"If that committee chops up the
governor s bill and makes it less
acceptable to Southern California
and if they do not give any fa
vorable consideration to a con
stitutional amendment which con
tains the assurances the south has
been seeking, then the fat will
be in the fire at this session,
The south for years has been
trying to win Senate approval of
a constitutional amendment which
would guarantee the validity of
any contract it made to Import
water. The southern fear has al
ways been that the north "might
turn tne spigot oil.
Northerners have opposed freez
ing guarantees of water into the
Constitution, where they would be
difficult to modify, because they
feel they might need the water in
time of drought or if future de
velopment increased their need.
Brown s compromise, contained
in a bill by Sen. Hugh Burns ID-
rresnoi, tries to resolve the ar
gument by providing for a J1.750,-
000,000 bond issue to build the
heather River Project and snee.
ifying that water contracts would
be good for the life of the bonds
which would be at least 50 vears
Another leature of Brown s com
promise would guarantee the
north 130 million dollars for mire.
ly local projects to onset the
enormous sum of money going to
FRP, which primarily is a project
to export water to the south.
The money proposed for north
ern projects is one of the main
targets of northern senators who
claim it is insufficient to develop
uie siaiewiae water plan.
Burns said despite the hue and
cry trom nis northern co leaaues
he "hopes" the bill will get out of
tne water committee Friday with
out amenamcnt.
As for its chances of nassnoe
on the Senate floor, where 21 of
tne 40 senators must approve.
Burns admitted the vote would be
very close but he said he hoped
ne would be able to muster 23
supporters.

Winner Of Pulitzer Prize
To Devote Time To Drama
NEW YORK (AP) - Archibald
MacLeish, a winner this week of
his third Pulitzer prize, says he
wants to concentrate on drama
from now on, ,
"As nearly as I can judge," he
says, "that is what I want to do
most."
Three days ago his verse drama
"J.B." won the 1959 playwriting
trophy. The prize, he says,
brought an even greater satisfac
tion than the two Pulitzer awards
for poetry won in 1933 and 1953.
Today, on his 67th birthday, the
tall gray man who has been law
yer, journalist, librarian, diplo
mat, poet and educator, is mov
ing along with forceful, genial
drive. ,
MacLeish, who started out as a
Yale quarterback and. captain of
water polo, talks in simple, un
pedantic terms. A conversational
reference to Marxism brings the
comment that the black-and-white
absolutes of such ideology "bore
the hell out of me.

Washington social affair that he
might not be chairman in 1960,
that he might want to make a
nominating speech. As neutral
referees, convention chairmen can
not make nominating speeches.
Rayburn attached no signifi
cance to the remark, which he
said was made in jest. Whether
he would accept the post of chair
man if it were offered to him,
he hasn't said. Some members of
the Democratic National Commit
tee are known to favor for the
chairmanship someone less in
clined than Rayburn to conciliate
the party's southern wing.
A question marK nas been
posed over Martin's possible role
1960 by his ouster from the
party leadership in the House. He
was replaced as floor leader last
January by Charles A. Halleck
of Indiana. Martin hasn't com
mented publicly on his 1960 pros
pects. He reportedly would accept
the post if it were offered to him.
McCormack definitely does not
want to head the platform, com
mittee.
"I'm not sure it will be offered
to me, he said. I dont want
it. I would be, most reluctant to
take it. I didn't want it the last
time but they drafted me.
"But I'll tell you one thing,"
he added. "The biggest mistake
that could be made would be to
pick anybody except Sam Rayburn
for the permanent chairmanship,"

wives who buy milk cheaper at
drive-in milk depots may do so
for at least one more year.
And a threatened, milk price
war may permit them to buy milk
even cheaper at neighborhood
supermarkets.
The Assembly committee on
Livestock - and Dairies Wednesday
night refused to force the drive
ins to boost their milk prices to
the level of regular retail stores
The committee voted 4-3 to send
the issue out for a one-year study
by an interim committee. The ac
tion was taken in a committee
room packed with 300 to 400 spec
tators, who several times broke
into applause.
The biggest hand was given to
Sen. Alan Short (D-Stockton)
chief opponent of the bill, who de
plored attempts by retailers to
drive the drive-ins out of business
"I don't think that's the type of
competition that made America
great, Short said.
He pointed out that the people
of this state want this type of
business. They want drive-ins,
and he cited banks and motels
as types of businesses that wera
opening drive-in facilities for the
convenience of customers.
William D. Hadeler, lobbyist
for the California Grocers Asso
ciation, told the committee that
unless the lower drive-in prices
were stopped, the state milk mar
keting act is headed for destruc
tion." He said he thought that grocer
members of his association would
meet their (the drive-ins) price
even if it is in violation of the
law."
Asked by the Assemblyman Alan
Pattee (R-Salinas) if the associa
tion plans "to go to court to break
the law," Hadeler replied:
tne Department lot Agricul
ture) would take it into court
when we meet competition by cut
ting prices two cents or so.
The California Milk Marketing
Act provides set minimum prices
for wholesale and retail sales of
milk. The prices are set on the
basis of costs of operation and
reasonable profit.
Since 1952, the Department of
Agriculture has been permitting
drive-in milk depot salos at prices
one or two cents below the retail
store price on the ground the cost
of the drive-in operation was less.
1 he bill s author. Assemblyman
Carley. V. Porter (D-Compton),
told the committee that it was his
opinion that if the lower drive-in
prices continued the milk law was
in danger of being broken in two
years.
He said he mentioned this to
two Safeway stores executives and
said they replied, "not two years
eignt months.
An earlier audience outbreak
was caused by Assemblyman Carl
n. Bntscngi m-Kedwood City)
who asked a witness "What do
you suggest we put in this bill to
prevent dairies from ownine re
tail stores and vice versa?
