Sound Policies

One is impressed, when the out
line OF ldaho's water development is
made by w. G. Swendsen, state re-
clamation commissioner, that sound
common sense and wise policy
govern Idaho and its greatest natural
resource, water.
Someone has sagely remarked that
OF all the natural resources. water
alone is wasted when it is not used
and is not destroyed by use. Mr..
Swendsen supplements that idea with
the contention that the DEVELOPMENT
OF ldaho's water supply should look
to the future. 1t should be based
upon far seeing policy that con-
slider not alone the immediate need
but the utmost utilization at some
future day.
ldaho's water resources have been
developed in a somewhat haphazard
way. Its use has FOLLOWED the line
OF least resistance. And yet Idaho
today is only half using its water,
has reclaimed only half the land for
which It has water to irrigate. That
alone is sufficient evidence Of the
need in using what remains unde-
veloped of this resource to the great
est possible advantage.
Electric power and farming, while
they have rarely clashed in this state,
cannot both use the water. In Mr..
Swcndsen's opinion the future OF
Idaho will be better served by de-
voting all of the water possible to
irrigation and dedicating what re-
mains to the generation OF electricity.
To that end. an amendment to the
state constitution is proposed which
would make that policy doubly sure
II accomplishment.
Altogether. one is impressed that
Mr.. Swcndsen is a safe guide for
IDAHO in the development and utili-
alton Of its water resources.

After Nominations

Just one point in connection with
the Sunday picture show controversy
as it revolves around party platform.
That platform was not adopted prior
to the nomination OF candidates on
the Citizens ticket Reference to files
of The Tribune shows clearly that
this platform was not even contem-
plated when nominations were made.
1t followed in the natural course OF
events as the campaign progressed.
In justification OF members of the
council who now approve Sunday
movies, it is only fair to say that
they were nominated upon their gen.
,ral qualification merits without re-
'erence to any platform.

A Waning Day

Probably there is little chance now
in the light of the August federal
crop forecasts, for a marked increase
in the Idaho potato markets quota
tons. Figured on the basis of a
normal consumption per capita of 81
bushels of potatoes per annum in the
United States. there is again this
year an overproduction of potatoes.
That is true if the August forecast
is correct. And it usually closely
parallels the seasons actual crop.
Prices have been lowering closely
around the point Of cost of production.
ldaho's early potato crop will be
turned over once more and that is
about all For the producer there
is no profit.
What is wrong? Probably the
largest single contributing factor to
the unsatisfactory situation Idaho pro-
ducers have faced every year is the
TACT that potatoes are no longer
grown in a few states. Today the
production of tubers is a nationwide
industry. There was a time when the
Idaho early crop found its way to
market at season when other states
were not marketing heavily. That
time, apparently. has passed Not in |
several years has this state found a |
receptive market for early potatoes.
Idaho producers, on the contrary, have
found it necessary to compete with
Kansas. New Jersey, Wisconsin and
Michigan.
In the final analysis. it is quite
evident that Idaho's day as a pro-
Queer Of early potatoes is waning.
transportation costs devour the mar
gin which makes production of this
crop possible in the middle west. Our
potato acres must be turned to some
thing else.

Must Stand!

County Commissioners were appar-
emily astonished to find that some
citizens had cast ballots in the Pro-
gressive primaries as we'll as in the
primaries OF their own party. There
was the record, clear and unmistak-
able. Ballots had been given the
same persons at two polling places.

Sure. They will help to reduce Ma

But slowly. boys. slowly. What
about the other fellows who voted

their ballots coun,ed' There's the rub.
