opportunities for you, and your neigh
will not come from general promises,
however honestly and however elo-
quently made. The future depends
upon the people themselves doing
something about the natural resources
which are the foundation stones upon
which that future rests
1t is what men and women do with
the natural resources of their COM
munity, their valley, their country
that determines their future, whether
in the valley of the Missouri or the
valley of the Tennessee, whether on
the Amazon in Brazil, the Yangtze in
China, the Volga, the Danube.
What you do, you people of the
Missouri Valley, using the tools of
modern up-to-date organization, with
the natural resources of this your
valley will determine what happens
in the coming years in your life. in
your town, on your farm, your ranch,
in your bank and your store. This it
is that will determine whether there
will be new opportunities in this re-
gion or whether those opportunities
will shrink. This it is that will de-
termine whether your land will be-
come more fruitful and yield more in
net income for each acre, whether it
will be protected against the ravages
of wind and water erosion, whether
the waters and the rivers will work
for you or viii be squandered and
even destroy property and lives.
the population of this region
will decline and migrate out of the
area, whether schools and colleges
and Libraries and hospitals and music
and art and leisure for recreation will .
as the years go by.
These things depend upon your abil-
ty to so organize your public agen-
eies and private institutions and en-
-erprises that they will cause the ma
-ural resources of this region to bios
som for you and your children.
The whole nation has a great stake
n what transpires here in the ma
estic reaches of this enormous river
ALLEY The full development of the
of this vast region will
mean more to the factories and bust
lesses and farms of the East and
he South and the West, than the
uture of our trade with South Amer
ca or with Russia or with any dis
ant part of the world.

happens to the water in flood time
as it destroys your lands and cities is
someone else's responsibility" This
unified principle prevents the iva
from saying to farmers: 1--WE are not
responsible to you but only for the
use of power for industry" Nor can
it cay to industry: Our obligation
runs to the farmers and farm electri-
fication only, and the problem of aid
ing in private development of indus
try through navigation or electricity
or mineral research is not our con-
Germ"
Under the basic principle of the
seen as lowlands or uplands, farmers
or businessmen, navigation or power.
The responsibility on the IVA, as a
single agency is one that extends by
law to all parts of the valley and to
every human being and every human
interest in that valley.
| dare say that most of you are
chiefly concerned and deeply con-
cerned about two things: First, bring
ing this terrible war to a victorious
conclusion. Your first postwar plan
| is like that of most other American:
to make it possible for your men and
women in the armed forces to come
home again as soon as humanity pos
sible, with their hard job done and
well done.
But | would venture the guess that
you are also thinking earnestly, and
not without some worry, about the
future after the war What about
your individual future on your farm,
at your job, in your place of business?
What about opportunities for these
tens of thousands of your sons and
husbands and sweethearts when the |
happy day comes when they can come |
home again and return to CIVILIAN life /? |
What about the future - your fu-
ture? Will it be skinny, lean, depen- |
dent upon decisions made in far-off |
places? viii 1t be a future of re-
curing fears, of limited opportunity, |
of having to go hat in hand to pol
fticians or to business brass hats?
Or will it be future of expanding
opportunity for those who are willing
to put in good, hard ticks of work,
for those who do not want guaran-
ties but do want a chance to show
what they can do? Will it be a fu-
ture in which your servicemen will
not only return home to parades and
speeches but to a region in which
things are on the move, in which new
things are stirring and developing, as
they did in the days when this great
region was in its first development
more than a half century ago

development = in short, of widening

boundaries of nature, watershed and
it's adjacent area All of it's operat
ing offices were to be NOT in Wash
ington, but in the area whose people
it was to serve. Day-by-day decisions
were not to be made in the national
capital, but by men who lived and
worked in the region. IVA was not
to be run by remote control There
you have the basic differences be-
tween the IVA and the traditional
federal rganization-unity of devel-
opment and a regional decentralized
administration All other differences
flow from these two.
The statute creating IVA directed
this public corporation to do certain
things itself, and to accomplish other
detectives in cooperation with exist
ing agencies. We were told to con-
troll the rivers water so as to pro-
tect the people from the ravages of
flood, at the same time to provide a
channel for navigation that would
nourish commerce. We were told to
dispose of the electric energy that
such river control would create for
the benefit of the people on their
farms and in their homes and fac
tories.
That job of water control is the
only part of the total job that has
been done exclusively by the IVA
itself. Every other aspect of this
broad programmed this is too little
known-has been undertaken, as the
basic act intended, IN CO-OPERA-
TON with others, and particularly
with states and local community
agencies all the way from local school
boards and sportsmen's clubs to state
universities.
Let me report first on the results
achieved in the controlling of the
Tennessee River through new tool of
democracy.
The Tennessee is large river sys-
tenn. By no means as large as the
giant Missouri, of course, but large
nevertheless, major stream flowing
on it's way to the Ohio through seven
states. The river races through
mountainous country and flows quiet
ly across flat alluvial plains. 1t pre-
sents almost every kind of technical
problem in the control of waters.
Like your Missouri, the Tennessee
was temperamental river, sometimes
turbulent in flood, sometimes too shall
low for navigation, too sluggish for
recreation. For a hundred years |
men had dreamed of making it their
servant, not their master. Over a
century ago, there were plans for
making it highway of commerce, |
but the river was stronger than the
plans. It's shoals were never con-
quered There were separate plans
for controlling its floods, but the
floods continued, year after year. des-
troying factories and crops and homes
and human lives, and adding to the
destruction on the lower Ohio and
the Mississippi. There were other
plans to use the great power poten-
tialities of the Tennessee, but they
were never realized.
Now in a decade all that has been
changed. The river was seen as one
problem and one opportunity. One
plan was adopted This wild river
has been gentled. The Tennessee to-
day is a chain of beautiful lakes be
hind a series of controlling dams. 1t
is the greatest single assets of the
people of the region, an addition to
the wealth of America
A series of dams has done the job,
a job that canals and levees and

single-purpose power dams or low
navigation dams could never do to
gether They make a channel relia
BILE for navigation the year around
$50 miles from Knoxville in east Ten
nessee to the Ohio River. That chan
mel is being used increasingly in car
rying the products of farms, forests
mines, and factories to markets
over this new watercourse. And in
return come shipments of coal from
Tennessee fields, billets of steel, tex
tiles, and other products of the south
And while those dams have made a
deep highway for modern barges, at
the same time those dams today pro.
vide that valley measure of flood
country. For the level of water be-
hind more than a score of dams can
now be controlled almost as precise
ly as liquid is measured in vessel
in scientists laboratory. When pro-
tective works at few places are
added, the people of the Tennessee
Valley will be safe at least against
the greatest floods, and hazards to the
people on the lower Ohio and the
Mississippi will be lessened.
That system of flood protection
the first of its kind-has been tried
and tested. 1t has proven it's worth.
The waters that in other years
wrecked factories and homes and des-
troyed life are now captive to the peo-
pie. Through water wheels, the
steady flow of the river turns the
generators which produce electric
energy to serve the people of the
Tennessee Valley and turn out alum
mum and munitions to fight the bat
ties of all America
That electricity flows out into farm
homes that have never known it's
benefits before. 1t relieves thousands
of farmers and farmers wives from
age-old drudgery. 1t has provided
an opportunity for new industry that
has arisen in that valley, processing
the products of the farm, adding to
the prosperity of the region and the
That electricity flows out
into many new factories, some very
large, some quite small. 1t operates
electric furnaces, provides communi-
cation and lighting and turns the
of a reviving industrial oppor-
tunity for private business in that
great American valley.
The Tennessee river at last is at
work for the people. 1t is a menace
40 longer. The dreams of hundred
years have come true.
But the river is only one of the |
'esources of the Tennessee Valley.
A river is only one resource of ANY

Valley lies it's basic strength. There
s not time here to tell you all the
leartening story of the transforma-
ion taking place on the farms and
n the forest lands of that region.

utlines.

rusted to IVA the operation of

hoals in Alabama, a plant to make
munitions in time of war and fertil-
zer in time of peace. During this
resent war in those Muscle Shoals
