Saturday. August 2l. l94s

Press reports said today the na- tiOnaliSts had sped strong rein forcements into the mountains less than ITO miles northeast of Can ton in an attempt to check the Reds southward rush.
 These reports probably are true, because large numbers of troops have been passing through Canton for the north the past few days.
 The loss of Tayu, ITO miles northeast, put the communists only five miles from the border of KWangtung province, of which Cneon is the capital as we'll as the temporary haven of the govern ment.
 The nationalists also admitted the loss of Anjen, 250 miles north of Canton and key point on the western flank of the Canton-Han- koW railroad.
 The fall of Anjen means the Reds are by-passing the Human province defense bastion of Heng- yang on the east and suggests they are trying to cut the rail line at Leiyang. Leiyang is 230 miles north of Canton and TO miles north of the Kwangtung border

EarthquakeShakes Wide Area In
 Pacific Northwest
CBy The Associated Press)

A sharp series of earthquakes rocked a wide area of the Pacific last night for about five minutes. No major damage occurred and no casualties were 
 The violent shaking appeared to center in northern British Colum- bia, primarily in the Skeena River valley. But tremors were felt throughout a wide area from Prince Rupert, B. C., east to Jas per, Alta, and from Petersburg, Alaska, south to Portland, Ore.
 Store windows were smashed and cars rolled crazily on streets at Prince Rupert and at Terrace, B. C., 90 miles east. A tWo-foOt wave swept along the waterfront at Ketchikan, Alaska, moments after the shock. Dishes were knocked from shelves and pictures from walls at Petersburg.
 Ten houseboatS were torn from their moorings in Seattle's Lake Union. Power lines and water mains were broken in some parts of the city.
 The Queen Charlotte Islands, 800 miles northwest of Vancouver, B. C., reported "the heaviest shocks in the islands history" Chimneys tumbled, bull d i n g s swayed and windows shattered. Homes rocked on foundations and some communications poles snap ped.
 At Portland, Ore, an amateur seismologist, F. William Geitz, re- corded the primary shock at 9:04 pm. PDT).
 AS many as eight shocks were reported by the northern British Columbia communities.
 William Baker, publisher of the Ketchikan Daily Chronicle, said in a telephone interview that the gangplank of the s. s. Prince George almost went out from underneath him as he step ped from the ship. Theater patrons rushed from the building in panic, but returned shortly.
 Baker said the initial shock was followed five minutes later by a lesser one. It was the first shock ever felt by the Southeastern Alaska city, according to longtime residents.
 A Tacoma woman said the wa ter sloshed from her swimming pool. And in Portland another wo- men said her houseboat rocked in the Willamette river just as it did in the northwest's worst earth quake four months ago.
 Then, April 13, the violent trem- bier caused eight deaths and dam age of more than S15,000,000 in Washington State.

sippi basin; the part Yellowtail
dam would necessarily play In
flood control and prevention of
soil erosion, and the increased
standard of living made posi-
BILE to DIR native population,
which in turn would result in
increased tax returns.
In line with this thought 1t
should be called to the sena-
tors attention that this de-
velopment would be a facor. in
aiding a large segment of the
Grow nation to become self
sustaining, and better able to
cope with advancing civilization
and help to remove this ex-
pense from our people.
In conclusion let me state
that there can be no area of
the entire Missouri basin more
worthy of consideration and
legislation aimed at bringing
about complete development
than is this Yellowtail dam
project in the Big Horn area.
It is an investment of vast
potential worth. Each year that
sees the uncontrolled waters
wasting and destroying their
way embarrassed to swell the
destroying floods of the lower
basin area is a year of agricul-
tural, industrial, power and soil
loss that can never be replaced.
Let us halt this squandering of
resources.
Therefore, senators, let me
strongly urge that this project
be placed in Phase "a" and sub
stantial monies made available
for construction. Let us trans
fer this great region from one
of economic loss to one of pos
tive and tremendous economic
gain, not only for Montana and
wyoming, but fo- the entire
nation.

Spying For America

WASHINGTON - (Al - Amer
icah's old time spies seem picture
esque in retrospect. They had none
of the large scale organization and
of our modern espionage
system, the Central Intelligence
Agency. They worked only in war
time; that helped give them CLAM
or.
Spying was largely one man or
enc woman operation. The national
favorite was young Nathan Hal the
Connecticut school teacher and
Yaleman who became a captain in
George Washington's army. He
crossed into the British lines in the
disguise Of a Dutch school teacher
to obtain military information. He
was captured and hanged the next
day.
Il only regret that have but one
life to lose for my country" the
patriot is reported to have said be-
fore the moose frightened. Perhaps
the young scholar was recalling a
line from Joseph Addison's play
Cato" What pity is it that we
can die but once to save our coun-
try"
Another brave but less we'll
known sDY for Gen. Washington
was Col. Barton. He and a few SOL
diers disguised as non cOmbatants
penetrated the British lines and

brought Prescott back to Washing
ton, who held him as q prisoner for
some time.
