JEWS, ARABS. ARE ORDERED,
 STOP KILLING
Instructions Are Given to Troops : Defiance to
 Truce Indicated l
By The Associated Press

~-%'HCS~NNSHS&
 Arab and Jewish troops in Pales- tine were being ordered today to stop killing each other, effective at 10 pm (PST Thursday.
 Only cautious optimism was ex- pressed around the United Nations that the four-week armistice and arms embargo would endure. There was even less hope that, in four weeks of wrangling on the Island of Rhoces, formula for permanent peace would emerge
 It was difficult to see how the basic issue of partition could be re- solved, short of armed intervention by the U. N-and that might lead to even greater, worldwide con- flict.
 We have achieved only the first step" Count Folke Bernadotte, the U. N. Mediator, commented in Carlo on the unconditional acceptances of the truce by Israel and the seven warning Arab states.
 Irgun zvai Leumi, once the Jew ish underground but now part of Israers Army, rebuked it's owa government for accepting the truce.
 The outburst possibly is prelude to Irgun defiance of the truce.
 Cairo said Egyptian Naval units destroyed port installations at Ma hariya, Is miles north of Haifa. Egyptian land troops attacked two settlements in south Central Pales- tine and planes bombed Rehovot,. 12 miles southeast of Tel Aviv.

Calls for Battle with "Pri- vdie Power Lobbyist"
 Discusses Flood
By ERNEST B. vAccARo

by EfblN ELo D. NAO1Auo
 SEATTLE, June 10-tR-President Truman called upon the Pacific Northwest today to arm for the toughest kind of a fight" in Con- gross to develop its river basins to stop floods and provide cheap power.
 He pledged his administration to battle along with Northwesterners every step of the way" against private power lobbyists" and men of little faith" who do not trust such development.
 The President asserted Congress threw us backward" by cutting river development appropriation last year and year after year" has blccked funds to provide trans mission lines to distribute low-cost power from California's Shasta Dam
 The shock of the tragedy of the disastrous Columbia River flood, the President said should rein- force our determination to build the dams and other structures needed to esntlol the nations riv- CT basins. MT Truman's speech was prepar- ed for delivery under auspices of the Washington State Press Club at the Memorial Stadium after motoring from Olympia and cross ing Puget Sound with Governor Mon c. Wallgren.

 WASHINGTON There are def mite signs that James V. Forrestal, most powerful member of the Cab inet and the man with the most influence around the White House, is slipping. He has definitely slip ped with Congress, and he is also slipping somewhat with President Truman.
 There was day when Forrestal could get anything he wanted from Harry Truman. He used the tech- nique Of telling Harry what great man he was, how his policies were absolutely right, that he didn't have to worry about reelection.
 But now those close to the Pres ident say he has wised up to the fact that the charming Secretary of Defense led him down a blind alley when he got him to reverse the United Nations on Palestine and that a lot of Forrestal's other advice has had a hollow ring.

GOVT. MAY
 TAKE OVER
 OPERATION
Chairman WeitheI of M. M. (. Opposes Exien-
 tion of Present Plan
By CHARLES D. WATKINS

WASHINGTON, June 10.-tR- Rep: Tollelson tR-Wash) predicted today the government will have to operate steamship service to Alaska if the present temporary subsidized plan expires June 30.
 Tollefson said that if the law under which the service operates now dies the Maritime Commmis- sion can charter ships to the pres ent operators-three Seattle firms --or institute government operation, known as general agency opera ton.
 Under the latter plan the com mission would assign vessels to the companies to be operated on Gov ernment account with the Commis- sion responsible for all losses.
 The Representative said that dur ing the last year of Government war time operation tf.ere was a loss of s4.ooo.000 on the Alaska Service.
 
 Expiration Of Law
 Indications grew today that the present law, under which the gov- ernment charter ships to the &c., attle companies at dollar year and pays the insurance on the vessels, will be permitted to ex- pire.
 This is due to opposition by Chairman Weichel (R-Ohio) of the House Merchant Marine Com mittee to any extension of the present plan. Weichel says the commission now has authority to operate the Alaska service.
 The Seattle companies, he said. have had Is months in which to work out plans for private opera

The Wet -.
and the i
49,.
By Don Knowles

Here they come, right from the
''inside basket" =. if you want
some real pan fish, try Twin Lakes
near Othello, Washington !.
the water is nearly clear and the
fish are hungry and rarin' to 60.
Bass up to three and four pounds
were taken during this last week
and crappies averaging a pound a
cast were the rule and not the ex-
ception. -
A few were taken on flies ana
plugs, but most of the fish were
bagged with the old faithful angle
worm. -sE zstss .--.E r--s g. 3
When fishing Twin Lakes, try
the upper lake first as usually it
produces the most fish. .- -
Another item-use q car with
a good average high center this
time of year, as 1t is rather rough
getting in, although there are only
a few miles Of this type of road.
Neither Of these lakes contain
trout, but are noted for their bass
and crappies -. and incident
ly this trip is one on which you
can invite the wife. One woman
captured the prize with seventeen
bass last week, along with two
large crappies over two pounds
each.
(Note: This Is the first time the
writer has stuck his neck out in
recommending a sure-flre basket
so bear with mel.
Large Chinooks are being seen
now in the Columbia and should
soon begin to provide sport for the
big fishermen who like to
troll and sway at the mouth of the

ually are some, so shine up your
spoons and get 'em ready. In the
past little Chinook success has
been had until about the middle

Hundreds of Steelhead have
been seen running up the Tucan-
non river in Columbia county
which we described once in this
column for you /. /. &. and the op-
ening date on that river, which is
May 18, should provide some good
catches Of these salt water Rain
bows.
The Tucannon is very easy
river to fish in that it is possible
to wade In most places and one
can get at the good holes without
hanging from tree like Tarzan
Of the Apes.
Glenn Lee Of Richland scored a
limit catch Of bass and crappies on

for me, cause I never have taken
the limit out there.
"Bus" Meek Of Atlkinson-Jones,
Richland ambled back from Yaki-
ma county with nineteen nice trout
from ten to twelve inches long
caught in No-Name creek just a
few miles out Of the city limits.
He claims that the little stream
has been stocked this season, but
that 1t will not bear up for long
under the whipping rods Of Yali-

the little ten-foot stream in large
numbers.
There you have It, sportsmen-
