Investigation Obviously
Intended as a w hifendsh

No attention was paid to this last
by the daily newspapers, which long
since lost interest in an investiga-
ton SO obviously intended to be
nothing but whitewash. But sure
ly no one directing this strategem
thought that the private utilities
would not know about it--especially
when the active Republican mem
hers of the committee knew that the
report had been submitted, that it
was in the hands of Vic Donahey,
chairman of the committee, and that
a copy of it was in the hands OF
Francis Biddle, counsel in chief on
the whitewashing job, who had been
rewarded by the White House with
a federal judgeship!
The really perplexing part Of all
this is that critics of iva, knowing
the opinion of Engineer Tom Pan
ter given the committee publicly by
Arthur E. Morgan, deposed chair
man of IVA, in protest against Pan
ters appointment, do not think for
moment that the Painter report
will be anything but favorable to
IVA. They suspect that there may
be some little point in the report,
however, on which administration
leaders figured IVA critics might
be able to make capital. And when
ii Is considered that the change Of
half dozen votes in the house
would have stopped the building OF
Watts Bar dam the point might real
ly have been very important.
Two things, if they could be def
nitely promised with assurance that
the promises would be kept, would
beyond the slightest doubt cause q
construction spree by the electric
industry, which might easily pro-
duce the wave of prosperity for
which Roosevelt and Hopkins hope.
One would be that the government
would construct no more hydroelec.
trio projects. The other would be
that the government would make
no more free grants and cheap in
terest loans for construction of 10.
cal electric systems. In short, a
promise OF no more subsidized gov.
eminent competition.
