The comments were made to the House Reclamation Subcom mittee Friday by Warren W. But ler, vice chairman of the board of directors of the Metropolitan water District of Southern Cali fornia. Butler, who immediately ran afoul of Pacific Northwest con grcssmen on the committee, said the legislation would be a threat to the MWD's hope of getting more cheap power to pump water from Northern California and the Colorado River.

The department said the 17 count indictment was returned by a federal grand jury in Portland, Ore. Two Minneapolis men were in volved, they are Ahraham L. 42. both of Winnetka. III. The department said others in dicted in Portland were: John Milton Phillips. 38, Evanston, 111., Jack Cecil Cherbo, 36, Chicago; Richard Dale Walker, 40, Los An geles,- George Edward Isaacs, 30, Glendale, Calif., and Maurice Ar thur Hall, 39, Beverly Hills, Calif. The indictment charged that the group bought nearly 7,000 acres of desert wasteland in Harney I County, Oregon. The land was of fered for sale at (395 an acre by mail to potential customers in several western states. Justice Department officials said local authorities estimated its value at $20 an acre. The indictment charged that the promoters sent out deceptive liter ature depicting lakes, mountains and water sport activities. The promoters also misrepre sented the weather conditions at Lake Valley," the indictment said. The indictment was the fourth major mail order land sale prose cution brought in the past three months. Maximum penalty on conviction would be 6 years in prison and a $1,000 fine on each count. to limit the export of electricity generated at Columbia River dams to lower not needed by Northwestern industry. The legis lation is intended to pave the way for construction of high-volUtge transmission lines to allow the Bonneville Power Administration to sell surplus power in California The MWD official expressed fear it would lead to similar demands by other regions and deprive the district of needed cheap power, Similar barriers could shut off from us power from Hoover an: Parker. Dams on the Colorado arid from Glen Canyon Dam and others still to be built on that river, he said. Among Butler's objections to the legislation was a provision that power delivered outside the BPA system could be recalled on short notice if needed in the Pacific Northwest. But Rep. Harold T. Johnson, Democrat from Northern Califor nia, said that under California law the MWD itself could pull back water deliveries to San Diego and other areas if the water were needed in Los Angeles County. I personally can t imagine judge uphilding it," Butler said. contending that such deliveries should not be withdrawn from communities which had grown up and were dependent on the water supplies. Johnson and Rep. Robert B. Duncan, D-Ore., suggested that areas which had become depend ent on power sources also had an equal right to keep such power. That, they said, was the purpose ol the legislation. The legislation before the com mittee would create an exception from federal laws which would give public agencies such as the MWD first call on federal power over any private utility or industry. The hearing was adjourned un til Monday.

Walter, D-Pa., one ol the most powerful and controver sial members of the House, died of leukemia Friday. Walter. 69, died at 6 p.m. EDT after being in a coma most of the day at Georgetown University, Hospital. He had been hospital ized tar ahnut lour months. He was chairman of the House Committee on L'n-American Ac tivities, the judiciary subcommlt-i tee on immigration, and co-l authored the Mct'arran-Walter Im migration Act. Adding to his pow- ne was chairman of tlie Democratic Patronage Committee, which dispenses Capitol Jobs. Since 19M, he had been chair man of the House Democratic cauncus. a prestige position. President Kennedy, who visited: waller recently, said "when I saw him on my recent visit. ..he was faring the future with the same faith and courage he had shown throughout his life. He will be greatly missed in the House of Representatives and all of his friends mourn his passing." funeral arrangements for Wal ter were incomplete. He will be nuned in Arlington National Ccm- rterv. Considered an expert parlia mentarian. Walter olten presided wnen tlie House debated its most ntnrale bills. He was a trusted onfidant of the late Sneaker Sam Rayhurn. who told a friend 10 years ago that he wanterli Waller to j'jcrcvj h-m. Many members considered Wal ter a moderate Democrat of val- ued judgment. Others sometimes seemed obsessed with internal security and defending his Commillee on I'n American Activities, which he once wanted, to abolish. "He was a devil to the lihemU and a hero to the conservative and they were both wrong." said a lineral mllcaciiF- of Waller ECM Faces New Crisis By French BRUSSELS, Belgium IUPD The European Common Market faced a new crisis today over French refusal to permit expand ed British contacts with the six nation economic community. Diplomatic observers said the situation was dangerously similar to the disunity following France's veto of British Common Market membership last January and it could get worse. Friday. France refused to per mit Common Market ambassa dors of I he other five nations from holding periodic meetings with the British ambassador. Backed by the power of veto, French Foreign Minister Maurice Louve de Murville said that pres ent contacts through the British mission to tne community were sufficient. In return West Germany. Italy The Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg known in Britain as the "friendly five "are threaten ing to delay action on important agricultural policies France con siders vital. They wanted the ambassadorial contacts to narrow the economic policy gap between themselves and Britain, thus facilitating Brit ish entry into the Common Mar ket sometime in the future. The five will attempt to take up the problem again at a min isterial meeting June 17 but their proposal appeared to have little chance against French obstinacy. Tlie Common Market dispute with American poiiltrymen re mained unresolved. Tlie ministers flatly refused to give U.S. exporters lower tariff rates into the community on broil er chickens tlvan their Danish comietilora despite the fact the Danes receive government sub sidies. America's share of the Euro- lcui chicken market has dropped irom 70 to 10 per cent because of priiv-cutlint! and increasine production elluiency In the Com mon Market countries.

Oregon Tech takes no little pride in the fact that its faculty and staff takes an active part in civic affairs and are a real part of the Klamath community. In spile of this fact, from what we hear, faculty members this sum mer will be harder to find than the proverbial needle in a hay stack. George Miller has a Kellogg Foundation grant to attend a three- week session at the University of California. National Science Foun dation grants for eight-week sum mer programs have been awarded to Walter Spencer and Ole Lundc at the University of Houston, Wal ter Richartz at the University of Illinois, Arthur LeCours at the University of Oklahoma, and John Anderson at tlie University of Mis souri. Donald Whitwer and Earl Kuril have Atomic Energy Commission-American Society for En gineering grants to attend the University of CaUfornia. Jean Underwood will be at the University of Oregon, Maurice Houser at Santa Monica City Col lege, and Lorraine Furby at Port land State College. Fred i-oulon and Ccil Lake will be completing the work for their master's de grees at Oregon State University. Hal Rotrock. Fred DeWitt, and Delbert Blake will be going to Col orado State. David Hull. Bill Grimes. Burdett Dodge, and Rob ert Boyle will be attending South ern Oregon College. Attending Chi- co State College will be John Goog- ins, Don Miller, George Marostica, Earl Sweet. Harold Young. O. K. McCart, Russell Madsen, Ben Morrison and A. L. Stone. Carl Stolpe will attend a work shop at the World Institute of Shorthand in North Dakota. Gus Ekdahl will a I lend tlie Marchant Calculator service school in Oak land, Calif. Hiram Hunt will be gin a doctoral program at the Uni versity of Houston with a leave of absence from Oregon Tech for next year. Wayne Kimball will hold a sum mer position as senior quaMty con trol chemist at the Technology Corporation. Development Center in Sunnyville, Calif.

Merle Jackson and William Swart will he at tending the General Motors school in Tigard. Ore. Paul Meier. U. W. Bingham, G. Itoss Henningcr and Dr. W. D I'urvine will be attending the American Sociely for Engineering Education in ?hiladelphia. Charles Martin, the old master in the Medical Technology Divi sion, is retiring afier 15 years and all of Oregon Tech will miss the genial professor. With full cognizance of the prob able fact that some have been left out who should have been in cluded in this list of those who have special summer programs, we will hazard a prognostication that others on the staff will be holding down the fort for Oregon Tech as far as participating in community activities and being a real part of the Klamath com munity is concerned. Evidently students in the sur veying classes are going to have opportunities to work this sum mer which they did not expect, according to Fred Foulon. head of the Engineering Associates Divi sion. He reported that within the past week there have been re quests for one full time graduate by the Klamath County Engineer ing Office; 13 surveyors for sum mer employment to rcsurvey 80 miles of road in Curry County with locations in Brookings, Gold Beach, and Port Or ford; four full time surveying graduates for the City Engineers Department in Springfield; and 20 students for summer positions running prelim inary surveys on forest service roads in the Grants Pass area. ond, Richard Stein, Enterprise; third, Jim Powell, The Dalles; fourth, Steve Wolfe, Wallowa, and fifth, Mike Wagonblast, The Daiies.

Legislation to clear these tem porary levies lor anomer year must pass Congress before tlie July 1 expiration deadline. Corporations now pay tax of 30 per cent on their first $23,000 in profits and 52 per cent on earn ings above that, nitnout interven ing legislation, these levies would drop on July 1 to 25 and 22 per cent, respectively. The administration's tax-reduc Hon and revision program or which the committee is now work infi would set these levies at 22 and 47 per cent, respectively. The 22 per cent rate would take ef fect, retroactively to Jan. 1. But the reduction to 47 per cent would be spread over a number of years with the first cut to 50 per cent taking effect on Jan. 1, 1964. The tax reduction program is confined to income taxes. It in eludes no reductions in taxes on goods or services. BEAR'S CAREER FINISHED PROVIDENCE, R.I. (UPI) Bruno is washed up as a circus performer at the r i p e old age 5.
