Mrs. Buchanan Leaves
State College Board
Ceontlnusa nom nrss paEsl

1855, had been secretary for the
past two years. At her home last
Saturday, Mrs. Buchanan said:
II feel that an intolerable situa-
ton has arisen on the board, and
/ just didn't want to be a part of
it anymore. I feel that the pros
poets for the education of Negroes
in the state have been greatly dam
aged, and the outlook is not bright
for anyone to do any constructive
work on the board under the pres
ent setup.
II further feel that DR.. Chapman
has been mistreated. He is a fine
man. and has done great deal
for Delaware State College,"
Mrs. Buchanan disclosed that she
refused reelection as secretary of
the board at last Thursday nights
meeting because she didn't want to
serve under the present leader
ship.
"As the meeting continued -
Mrs. Buchanan added, Il realized
that ] could no longer continue as
member of the board. The hands
of a constructive thinker are tied.
All one is able to do is go along
with the thinking Of the president
of the board"
Referring to DR.. Thomasson's
appointment as acting president,
Mr.. Nickel said last Friday night
that in his opinion DR.. ThomassOn
may be considered the leading can
didate for the presidency itself.
II think he is an extremely able
man, fully qualified to fill the post, "
Mr.. Nickel said.
He stressed the fact that this
was only a personal opinion, since
the selection of a new president
for the college is a matter for the
complete board of directors.
DR.. ThOmassOn was one of the
three faculty members put in
charge of the college in the in
term between the dismissal Of DR..
Howard d. Gregg in 1949 and the
appointment of DR.. Chapman in
March, 1850.
At last Thursday nights meet
ing, Mrs. Buchanan, who has no
political afiliation, voted with Ber-
nard Young of Milford, a Demo
crat, to retain DR.. Chapman.

busters was thrown out today by
Senator Benton, Democrat of Con-

Committee hearing, obviously re-
ferred to the fact that Southern
Democrats in the past have used
unlimited debate to block civil
rights legislation.

Eventual Consideration Seen.
Senator Benton, co-sponsor of
one OF the new rules, who was
presiding, first suggested that an
effort could be made to keep the
Senate in session for the remain
der of 1851 to wear down the
opposition.
Senator Lehman said he thinks
that sooner or later the Senate
will have to face the issue.
Then the Connecticut Senator
raised the suggestion of a new
strategy by saying those who
want it repealed may take a longer
look in the future at appropria-
Itlons for the South-appropria-
tlons that take money out of New
England and put it in the South"
A moment later. while Senator
Humphrey was denouncing the

the trouble, which was Moscow.
Mr.. Byrnes was puzzled" over
what to say to the Russians, but
after much discussion came up
with the suggestion that, tax
ing everything into account,
perhaps the wise course would
be to try to force the Chinese
government and the Chinese
Communists to get together on a
compromise basis. perhaps tell
ing Generalissimo Chang Kai-
shek that we will stop the aid
to his government unless he
goes along with this. It might
be well, he said. to tell Russia
what We intend to do and to try
to line them up with this policy.
Mr.. Patterson stated that it is
in his opinion clearly in our in

Northwest Restores
Aluminium Power
After Week End Rain
BY the Assoeieted Press

PORTLAND, Oreg., Oct. 1.-THE
Pacific Northwest aluminium in
dustry was working at top speed
today putting idle potlines back
into operation.
The supply of interruptible elec-
trio power-cut off two weeks ago
because Of lack of water to turn
generators in Pacific Northwest
power dams was restored last
night.
Rains, which began last week
end, had filled power dam reser-
voirs and excess water even was
flowing over the Spillways of
Grand Coulee Dam source of
much OF the regions power supply.
Brownout Called OFF.
At Takoma. Wash, ]. G. Gumz
of the Defense Electric Power Ad-
mlnlStration, announced that
there probably would be no power
brownout for at least two weeks.
Earlier plans called for a brown
out to begin today.
The restoration of interruptible
power to the aluminium industry
was announced last night by the
Bonneville Power Administration
here. A spokesman said that pro-
viding rains continue, power will
flow to the potlines at least until
October 81. After that the whole
situation will have to be re-ex-
amined.
Interruptible power - that is
power which is not under firm
contract and which can be shut
OF when the Columbia River falls
to a low level-was curtailed Sep
tember II after one of the dryest
summers in the regions history.
Restoration Will Take Week.
The withdrawal of the 240. 900
kllowattS of interruptible power
shut down two of the 18 potlines
in the Northwest aluminium indus
try.
The potlines made idle were at
the Kaiser Aluminium Co. plant at
Spokane, Wash, and the Alumi-
mum Co. of America plant at VAN
couver, Wash. It will take a week
to 10 days to get the potlines back
into full operation.
Plants at TroutdaIe, Greg, and
at Longyiew, Wash, and Tacoma
lost smaller amounts of power
under the curtailment order.
On September %, the power
shortage was emphasized when
Defense Mobilizer Charles E. Will
son told the aluminium industry to
draw up plans for the possible
removal of its plants from the
Northwest.
Rains Come From Pacific.
Bonneville even hired a rain
maker to seed clouds above Wash
ington, Idaho and Montana to in
crease Ine now OF the Columbia 81
tributaries.
Then Saturday rain storms
moved in from the Pacific Ocean
and the regions hydro-electric
resource began climbing. BY last
night it was 100000 kilowatts
higher than it was last Friday.
Whether the water will continue
at high levels depends on the
weather. But right now the outlook
is optimistic for the next three
weeks.
A cold snap that would freeze
water high in the Columbia's S
watershed or a slackening of the
regular autumn rainfall could
change the situation.
