SHOALS DAM

Freshman Lauded for Get-

ting Senate to Perform

A “Minor Miracle.’ *

By. DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, Nov.’ 22.—Sena-

tor William E. Jenner (R. Ind) was being congratulated by his. colleagues today for having performed a minor miracle,

Here but one week, he took the.

senate floor and obtained unanimous passage of an amendment to the flood control bill which will prevent construction of the dam at Shoals, Ind. This dam, was authorized In 1038 and its construction would be possible under the funds appropriated by the present measure. The short-term senator realized the unwritten rule that freshmen are to be seen and not heard, he said. But his senior Republican colleague, Senator Raymond E. Willis, was in Terre Haute attending a flood control hearing with army engineers when the bill reached the place where the Shoals amendment should be inserted.

Old Parliamentary Hand

An old hand at parliamentary procedure and an excellent public speaker, Senator Jenner's eight years in the Indiana senate gave him assurance. He approached the problem modestly by referring to a similar amendment ‘which the veteran Democratic Senator Josiah Bailey of North Carolina had just passed to prevent construction of a dam in Happy Valley, N. C. “My problem is the same as that of Happy Valley,” Senator Jenner told his colleagues. “To construct this dam at Shoals would merely mean flood diversion, not true flood control. It would flood 1000 river-bottom farms, destroy our roads and wash out both railway and highway bridges. “The problem can better be solved | 5 by a series of smaller dams on the east fork of White river and save the already falling level of the water table as shown by deep wells at Columbus.

Urges Planning

“Survey should be made and planning done for terracing and strip-farming. The large flood control dam, to which our people are opposed, would flood the valley for 52 miles and make a lake of some of the finest farm land in Martin, Lawrence, Brown, Jackson and Bartholomew counties.” Senator John Overton (D, La) * who has the bill in charge, asked Senator Jenner if he had any firsthand knowledge of these facts. The junior senator promptly replied that he had lived at Shoals eight years and now resided in nearby Paoll. ; He closed by stating that he is for flood control and the other projects that have been approved for Indiana without opposition. So the senate approved the week-old senator's amendment, which probably was the first time such a feat had been performed by a freshman. “Now our farmers who have worried since 1938 about this Shoals dam can go ahead and plan for their future,” Senator Jenner said following his victory.

NAZI SAYS HE'LL GO ON ‘HEILING’

‘I Don’t Know Any Other Salute,” Tough Young

Prisoner Declares.

, By LUDWIG POPPER United Press Staff Correspondents

ON THE SWISS-GERMAN FRONTIER, Nov. 21 (Delayed).— German soldiers and frontier guards still are straggling across the border into Switzerland tonight to escape the advancing French, and among them are many tough young Nazis who seem to have lost none of their cockiness. The older Germans in one group that I watched were subdued and reticent, but the youngsters were as arrogant and fresh as ever, despite the fact that they were surrendering voluntarily for internment, One 18-year-old “obergefreiter,” the equivalent of a corporal in the American army, demanded in a loud voice that he wanted to file a complaint,

_ Charges Poor Treatment

Encouraged by the Swiss post commander, he said he had been treated discourteously by a Swiss soldier at the border, “When I ‘heiled’ the border guard he regarded me contemptuously,” the young Nazi protested. “I don't know any other salute,” he told the officer. “I have been a soldier since I was 12 dnd I think I'll go on ‘heiling.’ ” The youngster wore an east front medal, a wound clip and a winter sport clip, and presented a striking example of the type of Nazified youth that may present a very dificult post-war problem. Another older German, a captain, was more resigned. His first question when the Swiss disarmed him was whether there were any books in Switzerland, as he hadn't, by his own account, seen any in years. His second question was whether he could obtain work.

Are Democrats Interested In Election Probe? They Are

While he was dining with Rep.
