Experts told 150 representatives Df municipalities, power and mining industries, well-drilling companies, engineering societies, conservation clubs, railroads and the University of Minnesota that the study is needed to avert water shortages for the next generation. Chester S. Wilson, state commissioner of conservation, said civic groups and industries particularly concerned with the water supply probably will be invited to nominate candidates for appointment to the committee. The committee will organize Information from chambers of commerce making water supply studies, from the Minnesota Municipal Utilities association, from engineering and well-drilling organi-ratlons, and will make its own tudy. It will eventually recommend underground water conservation measures to the state legislature.

Those who attended the meeting will be called back for further conferences. Wilson said. Opening the conference, Young-dahl warned that "we should never sit by idly until an emergency catches us unprepared" and cited a need for an "intelligent appraisal" of the state's water supply in the face of expected population increases and growth-.

NEWSMEN PERTURBED President Truman's executive order, however, designates not only installations and equipment as requiring protection, but also "all official military, naval or air force books, pamphlets, documents, reports, maps, charts, plans, designs, models, drawings, photographs, contracts or specifications" which may be marked "top secret," "secret," "confidential" or "restricted" at the direction of the President, the secretary of defense or the secretaries of the army, navy or air force. What perturbed reporters was the reference to "documents' and "reports." They wondered whether that meant they would be liable to criminal prosecution if they wrote a story digesting the contents of an army report that didn't involve national "security, but had been stamped "secret" or "restricted" by some over-zealous officer. When Mr.

Truman was asked about it, he said the order was an exact copy of a previous one issued March 22, 1940, and had been put out to conform to the new defense act. "Is there anything you can say to give us a definition of 'restricted so that army officers can know what it means?" was the next question. DOESVT VSE TERM' Mr. Truman said he didn't use the term, and reporters would have to talk to the fellows who did use it. "Every office boy I ever saw stamps these documents confidential and restricted," he was told.
