Seek to Establish CVA In Northwest

WASHINGTON, R - Legisla- tion to set up Columbia Valley administration for development of the great natural resources in the Pacific Northwest was introduced yesterday by Reps. Mitchell and Jackson, both Washington Demo- cratS.
 The bill, comprising l9 sections, would establish the administration as a federal corporation with headquarters in the northwest. It would be headed by three direc- tors drawing salaries of $l7,500 a year, two of whom would have to be bona fide residents of the Pa cific Northwest.
 The directors appointed by the President would serve six-year terms, except those first named. on staggered basis.
 The measure would require the CVA to seek advice, assistance and participation of the people of the region and their state and To- cal governments.
 It would transfer to the CVA projects, contracts, property and budgets of the reclamation bur eau, the Bonneville power admin istration and the corps of army engineers in the Columbia Valley with a minimum of delay after of the directors.

Bevens RejOins Seattle Rainiers

SEATTLE (R)-Floyd (BilD Be- vens was back with the Seattle Rainiers Saturday after lapse of seven years-but in that time he had the only no-hitter in the world series baseball within his grasp.
 The big highlander from Hub bard. Ore, was signed to Seattle contract Friday night after work ing out here for a week. Manager Jojo White said he will be tried in relief roles before being con- sidered as a starting pitcher.
 With the New York Yankees in l947, Bevens was within one put out of baseball immortality in a world series game with Brooklyn. He had walked two men in the last of the ninth. one of them in- tentianolly, when pinch-hitter Cookie Lavagetto connected with a two-run double to give the Dodgers a 2-l victory.
 The following season, Bevens developed arm trouble, went to Newark, was turned down by the Chicago White Sox and then given a chance to make a deal on his own with a Pacific Coast league club.
 He was with Seattle in 1922, be- ing released in mid-season and finishing up with Hollywood. La ter he went up to the majors.

Most Statesiders Lose One Hour

NEW YORK (P), About 5O,OOO,- 900 Americans got cheated out of an hours sleep Saturday night with the advent of daylight say ings time. Most of the big cities turned their clocks ahead one hour at a.m., Sunday.
 Residents will have to wait un- til September 25 to get back their Host hour" At that time, clocks will go back an hour.
 The object of daylight savings time is to allow daytime workers to enjoy an added hour of daylight after the quitting whistle. For that reason it is most popular in heav- ily-settled areas.
 Large cities going on fast time include Portland, Me, Boston, Providence, New York, Newark. Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Balti- more, Washington, Cleveland, Chi cago, Indianapolis, St. Louis. and Portland, Ore.
 Seattle waits until June to change it's clocks.
 Some cities that had daylight savings time year ago have abandoned it this year They in- clude Los Angeles, San Francisco, Detroit, Chattanooga and Nash vile.
 Because farmers chores are not as closely hitched to the clock, most areas in the south, middle west and far west shun the fast time.
 Radio networks have worked out scheme of their own. Major shows will be switched ahead an hour in the east so they will be heard at the same time. In the west and south, they will be re- broadcast an hour later so resi- dents of those areas can hear them at the usual time.

100000 Pounds
Of Food Shipped
To Jewish State

NEW YORK - Service for Pal
estine, founded by the American
Keren Hayesod as the official gift
food service to Israel, has in the
course of the past year shipped al
most 100000 pounds of food to
Israel, Charles Ress, president of
the Keren Hayesod, announced to-
day.
Ress also stated that in addition
to bringing this large quantity of
food into the new state, Service
for Palestine had utilized frozen
assets of the organization in Eu-
ropean countries for the purchase
of food.
"When we organized Service for
Palestine" said Mr.. Ress, "the
newly declared state of Israel was
engaged in bloody war for sur
vival. The food situation was ser
ious. When mail service from this
country to Israel was suspended
and very few ships sailing directly
to Israel ports, something had to
be done to get food packages to
Israel.
