WASHINGTON (L'PII-A South
ern California water official has
told Congress that legislation to
give the Pacific Northwest first
call on power produced in the area
was "short-sighted" and "basical
ly unsound."
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.
Butler testified in opposition to
an administration-backed measure

Cathmoro, wath., for final rltai and
Inlarmenf,
gon desert land described as
"Lake Valley" in promotion ma
terial, the Justice Department an
nounced Friday.
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.
PORTLAND (UPIi - Utters

The letters are addressed to the

CD appropriation.
Portland attracted national at
tention as the first major city to
take such action against Civil Defense.

WASHINGTON (UPH - Rep,

the most powerful and controver

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

authored the Mct'arran-Walter Im

which dispenses Capitol Jobs.
Since 19M, he had been chair
man of the House Democratic

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

Many members considered Wal

sometimes seemed obsessed with
internal security and defending
his Commillee on I'n American

to abolish.

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

to Walter Spencer and Ole Lundc

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

summer positions running prelim
inary surveys on forest service
roads in the Grants Pass area.

Seeks To Stop
Tax Redaction
WASHINGTON (UPI) The
House Ways & Means Committee
plans action next Tuesday to noaci
off a scheduled July 1 reduction
in federal taxes on corporations,
liquor and cigarettes, automobiles
and local telephone calls.
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.
