Fired Carpenter
Case TO Reopen

An Army carpenter, fired in
q dispute over a So debt, today
won another opportunity to bring
his case before District Court.
The dismissed employe is Larry
T. Gurley, So. of 1922 N street
NV. He is an Army veteran
of World War l.
Mr.. Gurley was first fired from
his job in 1949 for unauthorized
absence and he was removed
from his housing at the Sierra
Ordnance Depot at Herlong,
Calf.
Subsequently he was ordered
reinstated. But first a chest
X-ray was required before he
could regain his housing priv
ilege. The Army charged him
So for the X-ray.
Mr.. Gurley refused to pay on
the grounds that his reinstate-
ment should have taken care of
necessary expenses. After con-
tinued refusal to pay the 81, he
was dismissed finally in Septem-
Der, 1852. He filed a reinstate-
ment suit in California the
same year but it was thrown out
for lack of jurisdiction.
Through attorney Rober
Ackerly, he sued again here in
1854. This action was dismissed
by Judge Alexander Holtzoff in
District Court last year on the
grounds that Mr.. Gurley had
waited too long before filing it.
But today the U. S. Court of
Appeals held that there were in
sufficient findings as to the time
element. 1t also ruled that there
seems to be an issue of whether
the debt is a legal one which
should be aired at a hearing.

sena, N. Y. has a $105 million
ceiling on its budget which was
set by congressional action. Costs
are reported to have been con-
siderably higher than estimated,
leaving the corporation little
cash to cover unforeseen even
Qualities.
One Task Unforeseen
One eventuality which was UNI
foreSeen when the Congress
passed the Wiley-Dondero Act,
Canadian sources said, was the
necessity of dredging channels
of the st. Lawrence on both the
south and north sides of Corn
wall Island. Consequently, the
American seaway corporation
has no funds for this purpose,
informantS said, and has tried
unsucceSSfully to persuade the
New York Power Authority and
the Ontario Hydro Electric
Power Commission that they
should absorb the whole of the
SIS million estimated cost of
the dredging.
The power authorities refusal
to pick up the bill. in which they
are supported by the Canadian
government, may leave the sea-
way corporation in the position
of having to pay a share of the
$25 million at a time when it
hasn't the funds to do so.
If the dispute between the
Canadians and Americans over
this issue were to be prolonged,
it might set back the power plant
construction schedule by a full
year.
1t is estimated that such a
delay would cost the two power
authorities about $40 million in
terest on borrowed money with
