Senate Votes Down Dam For Hells Canyon Senate Decision Is Victory For Ike On Public Power Issue WASHINGTON (UP) — The Hells, Canyon dam issue today was left to the courts and, in the words of one congressman, to- political campaign speechmakers. The senate Thursday,’ in a victory for President Eisenhower on the power issue, rejected 51-41 a bill to authorize construction of a 308-million-dollar government dam Ln the Hells Canyon stretch of the Snake .River on the Idaho-Oregon border. ' Both sponsors and opponents of the legislation agreed that as a result of the senate action, the project is dead for this ■ session of congress. A house bill still is technically alive and pending before the house 1 rules committee. But speaker Sam Rayburn ID-Tex.) said he expects | no action will be taken on it. • But an administration - backed ' bill to authorize the 156-million-dollar Frying Pan-Arkansas project in Colorado, associated with the Hells Canyon measure in congressional maneuvering, apparently’ is still alive. Rayburn said he i expects the" rules committee will' ‘clear the Frying Pan bill for house ' action by next week. It would bring power and flood j control to a large Rocky Mountain area, The Hells Canyon bill would have had the effect of cancelling licenses issued by the federal power commission authorizing construction of three small privately I financed dams on the Snake River, i The Idaho Power Co. already has started work-on one. The administration favored private rather than public develop- ■ ment of the dam.site. Outside of congress, however.] two attempts to hold up Abe pri-T vate development are pending in the courts; Ona is before the cir-f curt court of appeals here. It al- . leges the FPC acted illegally in granting the licenses to the Idaho | company. The suit cites a section of the I federal power act requiring the FPC to recommend federal construction of hydro-electric plants when netessary for “comprehensive development.” Lucieu Hilmer, attorney for the National Heljs Canyon Assn, which brought the suits, said a decision is not expected for a month or more. - The other court attack on the licenses is pending before Su-j preme Court' Justice Hugo Black.; In it, the association seeks a ■ •‘stay” of the - licenses until the main suit is decided. A decision I may be made next week, it was ■ understood. ’ ®JOSP.ITAL V n Admitted Orval Scott, Decatur; Steven Sutton, Decatur; William Adang.

Mrs. Hugh Lawrence of Peru is visiting with her mother, Mrs. George Flanders in this city. The first artificial satellite will be launched Into its orbit at a height of about 300 miles at a speed of 17.000 to 18.000 miles an hour. At this distance, says the National Geographic Society,, terrestrial gravity is many times greater than at the distance of the moon. Hence the orbital speed of the satellite will also have to be greater' than that of the natural moon. The artificial satellite’ must travel around the earth at a speed of about five miles a second, faster than the fastest rifle bullet.

I Report Postal Rate Increase Bill Dead Senate Committee Continues Hearings WASHINGTON (UP) — Democratic sources said today that the postal rate increase bill is dead for this session of Congress. The senate post office committee continued hearings on a houseapproved measure which would increase postal rates_on letters, magazines, newspapers and advertising material. But there appeared to be no possibility that the 100 or so persons who have asked to testify could be heard before congress adjourns. Chairman Olin D. Johnston (DSC) has taken the position that all the witnesses must be heard before the committee acts on the bill. Nevertheless, President Elsenhower Thursday voiced a “prayerful” hope that the bill would reach the Semite floor before adjournment. He told postmaster general Arthur E. Summerfield that he (urgently wants the 430. million dollar bill passed "to bring to an end the unreasonable” deficits the post office department has been chalking up for the.past 10 years. Summerfield earlier reiterated* support for a smaller increase in _ postal rates for magazines and newspapers then called for in the house bill. "■* But neither this concession nor Mr. Eisenhower’s pleas appeared to have brightened prospects for 3 the legislation reaching the senate floor before adjournment. The bill would provide for hiking postage on regular and air mail letters to four cents and seven 1 cents, respectively. i.. . . . s At 'the Adams county memorial * hospital: f Lester and Evelyn Thieme Aus mann of Decatur are the parents of 1 a baby boy born today at 7:05 t a.m., weighing seven pounds and i-f 1 tour ounces. r —_— Trace tn a Good Town — Decatur
