The star-shaped beacon, probably the largest Christmas ornament in New York, flashes weather information from the company's tower. Through the haze across the Hudson River, buildings on the New Jersey shore are barely visible in the back ground. U PI Telephoto Scientists Explore Gravity As Great Energy Source DALLAS (UPD-Scicntsts to day discussed a possible source of energy that may be greater than ever a hydrogen bomb blast gravity. More than 100 scientists par ticipated in the three-day inter national symposium on gravita tional collapse. They exchanged ideas on how to harness the gravity pull of stars far in space. "Gravitation is capable of yielding a hundred times more energy than the most powerful 1 1 is nuclear reaction," two of the scientists wrote. Prof. William A. Fowler of California Institute of Technol ogy and Prof. Fred Hoyle of Cambridge University are the chief exponents of the idea that the primary source of energy is shrinking or gravitational col lapse of a super-star. The professors wrote a paper last February that said noises picked up by sensitive radio equipment was caused by grav itational collapse. The noises come from up to 1,500 million light years away from earth, so they contended these forces are greater than any nuclear reac tion. Their theory will be studied and debated during the three day symposium, sponsored by the Southwest Center for Ad vanced Studies at the Univer sity of Texas and Yeshiva Uni versity of New York. Top producer of chemicals from oil and natural gas in the U.S. is Texas. Committee Fails To Agree On Legislation For Intertie WASHINGTON' UPI A House and Senate conference committee failed again Monday to agree on legislation designed to pave the way for construc tion of transmission lines to carry power from Columbia River dams to the Pacific Southwest. Sen. Henry M. Jackson, D Wash., and Rep. Wayne N. As pinall, D-Colo., said they would report the disagreement and ask for the naming of new con ferees. Jackson said there was no chance for action on the legis lation before Congress adjourns this year. . It was the fourth time the conferees had failed to reach agreement on the bill, which could give the Pacific North west first call on federal power produced in the area. The meas ure was designed to win accept ance in the Pacific Northwest for the proposed intertie to con nect the Bonneville Power Sys tem with the Pacific Southwest. The conference broke up over House members' insistence on an amendment by Rep. Jack Westland, R-Wash., calling for specific congressional authority for the construction of power lines by the BPA outside the Pacific Northwest. Both t h e House and Senate have passed the bill, but only the House ver sion carries the restrictive lan guage. Failure of the legislation to clear- Congress this year puts oft realization of the ambitious plan to sell surplus power now being spilled over Columbia River dams. Congress has ap propriated $8.5 million for en gineering and construction of the power intertie, but the House and Senate appropriation committees directed that con struction not start until the pow er preference bill is passed. The House members rejected compromise offers by the Sen ale group, apparently feeling that they would have the back ing of the full House in a showdown. Lumber Marking Bill Approved WASHINGTON tUPP - The Senate Monday approved and sent to tiie House for final ao tioh a bill that would require Canadian lumber brought into the United States to be marked with the country of origin. Canada has formally express ed its "deep concern" over the measure and has indicated to the State Department that it would consider the requirement a violation of Canadian U.S. trade agreements. Former President Dwight D. Eisenhower vetoed a similar measure in I960 on grounds that it would violate trade agree ments, and the State Commerce and Treasury departments op posed the marking requirement in hearings earlier this year. Supporters of Uie marking re quirement hoped it would cut back Canada's $280 million-a-year softwood lumber sales to the United States by making it possible to enforce "Buy Amer ican" practices. The requirement also laid the necessary groundwork for other bills which so far have not ad vanced in Congress to extend "Buy American" provisions as they apply to lumber. The lumber marking provision was included in a bill which would require imported prod ucts to carry a country of origin label even if they are repack aged in the United States. It had been tacked onto the bill as an amendment in the Senate and was accepted last week by a House-Senate conference com mittee. Canadian Ambassador Charles S. A. Ritchie handed a note to Deputy Undersecretary of State Alexis Johnson the day after the committee action expressing what a Canadian spokesman termed "deep concern" over the measure. But Ritchie did not indicate during the Slate Department meeting whether Canada might take retaliatory action. Tuesday, December 17, 1963 PAGE tSA HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Ore. Ask about daily "Bu.ir.Mi Card" SPOT ADS TU 4-1111 Morse Levels Attack On Reporting Of UPI WASHINGTON (UPI) - Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore., Monday accused United Press Interna tional of "shoddy reporting" in describing his position on the compromise foreign aid authori. zation bill. The story in question was dis tributed by UPI last Friday and reported Morse's complaint that the "American Pravda press" had failed to report a speech he made Thursday evening op posing the conference report on the aid measure. Morse told the Senate Monday the UPI story left the impres sion he had simply repeated his earlier opposition to the bill whereas he actually was "ex pressing my opposition to the decisions made by the Senate conferees in connection with the conference report. "I do not know." Morse said, "whether they (UPI) write what they do out ol prejudice, ig norance, or both, but certainly factually. "What do you expect of a wire service which, as was pointed out in public hearings earlier this year in connection with some of its so-called for eign news, was perfectly willing to take money to write alleged or purported news stories at least that would be the interpre tation of the readers whereas the stories really were lobby services by United Press to foreign governments, foreign concern and foreign clients." ( In New York, a UPI spokes man said the news service had never taken money from a for eign government or anyone else to distribute news in their be half and that no evidence to that effect came from the Sen ate Foreign Relations Commit tee hearing this year.) Morse also noted that the UPI story reported that the Oregon senator spoke Friday to a near empty chamber since the only other senator present was the presiding officer. "What tommyrot is this to seek the downgrading of a sena tor.. .by sending out that kind of shoddy reporting?" Morse asked, "based upon the falla cious premise that unless we are talking to a full Senate we are not performing service for our constituency... "But so long as the American press continues to follow a pro gram of concealing such facts if 1 T 1 1 mm i fl ' as it wishes to conceal," Morse said, "I repeat that the Ameri can people are not enjoying a free press but a rigged press time and time again in its re porting policy."
