SEES THREAT

O'Sullivan Declares

Interesting Talk Is Feature O.
4-County Council Banquet
Session

Destruction of plans for the high
dam is certain and the dreams OF
an immense irrigation network
spreading over more than a million
acres of Columbia Basin land viii
be shattered, if the low dam at
Grand Coulee is completed as a unit
separate from the high dam.
This flat announcement of thu
low dam stood out in an address ov
James O'Sullivan which featured
the banquet meeting ait Brewster
Wednesday evening of the -Four
County Council. Mr.. O'Sullivan is
secretary of the Columbia Basin
commission, and one of the original
boosters of power and irrigation de-
velopment at Grand Coulee.
Shows Difficulties
He pointed out that the high darn
cannot be built in sections without
an additional cost of $25,OcO,OOO.
During an interesting talk, Mr.
O'Sullivan traced the history of the
Grand Coulee dam back to its
origin in 1918 when he said that
Rufus Woods, publisher of the
Wenatchee Daily World, and Will
lam Clapp, Ephrata attorney, first
conceived the idea that dam, con-
structed at Grand Coulee, would
furnish water which could be used
to irrigate hundreds Of thousands
of acres of potentially rich Colum-
bia basin soil.
Tells OF Hardships
Telling of his own connections
with the early campaign for the
dam, Mr.. O'Sulliyan described hard
ships which he willingly expert
enced in his zeal to aid in the stu
pendous program which he and a
handful of others were attempting
to put over.
He declared that the influx of
new settlers to this region, followed
by the industry, would create huge
power market for Grand Coulee
power, and that an actual power
shortage is coming. He asserted
THAT the project will bring a new
era Of development to the North
west, that $4,000 families in the
drouth area now are ready to move
out to the Columbia Basin. He de-
clared that the area could support
10000 subsistence farms, and that
the dam would wipe out depress-
ion."
Stating that he believed Presi
dent Roosevelt and Harold Ickes,
public works administrator, are III
favor of the high dam, he declared
it will be the greatest project eve
built on the American continent
exclusive of the Panama canal"
During his address Mr.. O'Sullivaa
paid high tribute to Major Butler,
army engineer who made the army
survey of the dam project, making
what was described by Mr.. O'Sulli-
van as the first honest report o.
the project. Major Butler has
since died.
Illustrations of the project in LIS
various phases up to the present
time were used by Mr.. O'Sullivan
in his talk.
Leonard Therriault, Pateros,
served as POSTMASTER at the ban
quet, being introduced by l.. A. Gill
lespie. He pre- Sented President
James M. Greene of the Council,
who spoke briefly, and was followed
by E. w. Campbell, president of the
Washington Education association,
and Mr.. OiSulliyan.

quirements actually justify. An ex-
animation of the budgeted Federal
expenditures for this year discloses
opportunities for savings that will not
reduce effectiveness of Federal ex-
penditures, but will greatly exceed the
receipts from any revenue measure
which might now be considered.
Several methods of effecting such
economics have already been pointed
out by the chamber.
"a reduction in expenditures would
strengthen the fiscal position of the
Government and at the same time,
through encouragement of business,
would increase income and activities
already taxable. It is only through
this procedure that substantial in
creases in Federal revenue are now
possible"

Tentative proposal that memorial

and that Mrs. Rogers will reach Los
Angeles on the Santa Fe at o'clock
Wednesday afternoon.
Jones, who accompanied Mrs. Rogers
from New York to Philadelphia, denied
emphatically that she had attempted
to persuade the famous comedian to
abandon the Alaskan trip. He said that
Mrs. Rogers denied the reports to him
and also he said she is not opposed to
flying. As proof Jones cited the fact
that when word was received of the
crash, Mrs Rogers telegraphed her

They have passed laws down there
making it impossible for the State to
put up the required SIS per cent of the

Hackett's deadline of a month was,
in effect, notice TO Senator Huey P.
Long, Louisiana political boss. that his
opposition to the P. w. A would have
to end within that time or there would
be no funds at all for Louisiana.
There's only $500, 100000 left of

tai stock tax rate, and the imposition
of an intercompany dividend tax.
Two other issues injected by the Sem
ate-the Borah amendment to ban
future issuance of taX-eXempt Federal
securities and the McCarran amend

Business Continues Attacks.
While the legislation thus was sus-
pended in its course through the Con-
greSs. business continues its vigorous
attacks against its adoption. The lat
est of these assaults came last night
from Harper Sibley. president of the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States. who charged discrimination in
the drafting of the bill and urged a
reduction in Government expenditures
rather than an increase in tax rates.
Mr. Sibley said:
There probably never was in our
history another bill like the so-called
revenue bill of 1895. Masquerading
as tax bill, and falsely appearing in
some provisions to utilize the principle
of ability to pay, it can this year, ac-
cording to the most sanguine esti-
mate, produce about three-tenthS OF
l per cent of the Federal Govern
ments estimated expenditure. and
several years hence might get up to
ga per cent. Obviously, this is not a
tax bill
The provisions of the bill disclose
its real nature. There Is indiscrlml-
nate regulation of American business
enterprises in ways which should con-
Germ the States. Although perform
ance of many economic functions
effectively and at lowest cost to con-
sumers requires some concerns to be
large, the bill penalties them because
of this very necessity. Although State
laws leave no alternative for some en-
terprises existing as series of corpo-
rations created by the laws OF the
several States in which they operate,
the bill penalties every such situation.
The bill goes even to the point, as it
passed the House, of often preventing
a father from passing on to his busi-
ness as going enterprise with con-
tinued employment for workers who
have faithfully participated in It ana
may have a share of the ownership.
Employment by any business, or in
vestment in any business. in which
the executive ability and ownership
of any individual Is important would
assume new hazards.
This is no time to consider any
interferences with business enter
prise. AS to SUGGESTIONS about reve-
nues, it is to be observed that in a year
when additional State and local taxes
are being imposed to the amount of
at least $500, 1000, 1000. carrying to the
total of State and local taxes alone
over 10 billions, there should be con-
sideration of the total tax burden now
borne by the American people. The
pressing problem Is to prevent these
burdens from being larger than re-

Don't Relax Prone Pressure Efforts

We'll" the friend, who was giving

Twenty minutes later the victim
began to breathe. and soon revived.
When he became conscious he re-
peated the above conversation word
for word. He had heard them as
they passed sentence on his life!
We must impress this on the opera
tor. Even in the face of an absent
pulse and other signs of life, the
stubborn application of artificial
respiration may save human life,
DOES water get in the lungs?
- This is a favorite question and
it can be answered in this way: In
some cases a great deal of water
may be drawn into the wind pipe
and its branches to the lung air
sacs. But even so, if the heart is
still beating, some of this water
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-06-29

can be absorbed into the circula-
ton.
What is the practical application
of the knowledge? This water can
not be removed by holding the pa
tent upside down, or by any me-
chanical means. 1t will either be
absorbed, as was stated or it will be
slowly expelled by long-continued
artificial respiration.
The old-time barrel-rolling, de-
vised to empty the lungs of water,
is of no value and even a danger to
life. 1t only gets water out of the
stomach where it is doing no dam
age and wastes precious seconds
that might be used in giving air by
artificial respiration.
Many victims of water accidents
have died after apparent recoverieS.
Be sure the patient maintains his
breathing after he starts. If he
stops, as has happened many times,
resume the prone pressure.
A word about the various ma
chimes such as pulmotors and lung
motors which force breathing by
changes in air pressure. They are
not recommended by medical au
thority. Their greatest harm lies
in the fact that they take the en-
phasis off of prone pressure, and
those at the scene of the accident
are apt to wait for the apparatus
and not begin prone pressure. This
undoubtedly has killed people in the
past. Let us not let it happen in the
future

FRIEND IN GUN DUEL
Ousted Paris Police Project
Shoots Former Official.

BIZ United Press
PARIS, June 29-Pierre Godin,
former president of the Municipal
Council, was wounded in the right
thigh today in a pistol duel with
Jean Chiappe, his successor in
office and the former Paris police
chief who was ousted.
Intimate friends for many years
during which, from youth to rlpened
age, they rose to national eminence,
the Cougar Godin and the ST.
year-old Chiappe exchanged four
shots with dueling pistols at 25
PAGES.
The distance was paced, and the
signal for fire was given. Godin at
the second shot slumped to his knees,
a pistol ball in his thigh.
N token Of the bitter enmity that
sucC: eded their one-time friendship,
Chiappe, as Godin fell, walked to
his motor car without the usual
handshake-a notification to Godln
that they remained unreconciled.
