the executive committee of the Regional
Committee for MVA here August 8.
The committee adopted a resolution
asking the Federal Power Commission
Immediately to investigate the finan-

plans of the National Association of
Electric Companies as well as recent
charges that certain companies have
made a kick-back arrangement with their
suppliers to support anti-MVA propa-
gandists in each OF the states of the
Missouri Valley"
The same resolution charged that 30
organizations have banded in a Wash

ate river valley authorities patterned
after the iva. The committee charged
that many of these water-lobby organi-
cations were known to represent private.

supported by power companies, railroads
and land Spectators and called for a
Senate investigation of the organizations

of the Congress of the United States to
such organizations or those who manipu-
late them, if there be any such mem
bers."
In a statement to the press, Left Erick-
son, chairman of the MVA committee,
said that the recent establishment of the
National Association of Electric Com

people of the Missouri valley"

other officers of the new lobby are Off

consumers of electricity in their monthly
light bills" provisions of the 1885 Hold

For a group whose death sentence was
pronounced a decade ago, the power in
t%erests, as exemplified by the holding
companies, appear to be very much alive
today" he stated.
