President Wants Dam
Supervised by Iekes,
Secretary Asserts
Prefers Setup to 3-Mon
Bourd at Bonneville,
Says Interior Head
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TACOMA, Wash, Sept. 6.-Sec-
retary Ickes declared last night
President Roosevelt preferred to
have the 100000, 900 Bonneville
Grand Coulee power setup under the
direct supervision of the Secretary
of the Interior.
The Secretary of the Interior
spoke before the Washington-O Ore
gon Public Ownership League Con-
vention in opposition to so-called
home rule by a three-man board of
Columbia Valley power projects.
Mr.. Ickes currently maintains SUI
pervision through an administrator
Of Bonneville.
Mr.. Ickes said when it was pro-
posed to the President that a num-
ber of three-man public power
boards be set up, reporting directly
to him, the President replied that
he would have to ask for two addi-
tional presidents because one simply
could not do a proper job under
such an arrangement.
The Secretary told the convention
that "our overburdened President
prefers to have Bonneville directly
under the supervision of his Secre-
tary Of the Interior"
The question of whether a three
man board or the Interior Depart
ment should be vested with control
Of the Columbia development is be-
fore Congress in two bills.
Mr.. Ickes termed the three e-man
idea a Trojan horse introduced by
private utilities behind the defense
Of public power in the Northwest" "
"The private utilities" he said,
"are just as ruthless as ever, but
they will make no frontal attack
upon public power at this time"
Il would like to see private utili-
ties bought out as complete entities,
at a price that would be fair and
just, but would contain no gratui-
tous squandering of public funds.
To be more specific, we
must acquire by negotiation or by
condemnation, if regrettably neces-
sary, the private utilities now oper-
ating in this natural public power
field"

U. ). Ability 10 Fill
Latin American Needs
Seen Vital 10 Program
Pierson, Export-lmport
Bonk Heed, Cites Aid
Through Credits

The success of the program OF
economic cooperation with the
American republics will depend upon
the ability of the United States to
supply the essential machinery, sup
plies and materials needed by Latin
America, Warren Lee Pierson, presi-
dent of the EXport-Import Bank, de-
clared today in an article in Foreign
Commerce Weekly, official publica-
ton of the Commerce Department.
Since its establishment in 1884, the
Export Bank has extended
credits totaling approximately $780,
100000, most of them in the West
ern Hemisphere. OF this amount,
Sl02 100000 has already been repaid,
and the bank up to date has made
profit of S12 900, 900. No loan made
to a Latin American country is in
default Mr.. Pierson disclosed.
During the past year, the bank
has made dollar exchange available
for purchases of United States prod
ucts through the extension of cred
it's to the banking institutions in Ar
gentina. Brazil, Chile. Colombia
Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Paraguay,
Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela" Mr..
Pierson said.
Used For L. 5. Purchases.
"Many of these dollar credits have
been utilized for the purchase of
United States machinery and equip
ment for the general development
of those countries and of newly
created assets, private enterprises
and national potentialitieS.
IN Argentina, for example, the
bank financed the purchase of
United States railway equipment
by the Argentine State Railways. In
Brazil, the bank has financed the
purchase of United States loco
motives for the Sorocabana and
other railroads, and the purchase of
United States road-building ma
chinery for new government high
ways to vital air bases. In Colom-
bia. the bank has financed the pur-
chase of United States shoe-making
equipment for a Colombian factory,
and the purchase also of United
States agricultural and industrial
products for other Andean programs.
Faces New Factors.
"The EXport-Import Bank has
financed the purchase of large
amounts of United States agricul-
tural and industrial products. which
have created new resources and as
sets in Ecuador, Haiti, Mexico, Pan
anna, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay and
Venezuela.
THE EXport-Import Banks past
activities have been very successful.
It's activities in the future face new,
and, in many respects. critical fac
tors, not the least of which is the
fact that the success of all our CO.
operatice economic and commercial
projects, both of the past and of
the future, in Latin America is
predicated upon the ability Of the
United States 10 produce, export and
transport vitality essential maChin-
cry, supplies and materials"
