RIVER development and food control
rank high on the list of Americas post
war plans. Many of these projects call
for dams which may also produce elec-
tric power.
This involves issues that should be
discussed and settled now-riVerS to
cross IN adVanee.
Many ofusin the power business have
had long experience with riverside
plants, in the production of both steam
generated and hydro-electric power. In
fairness to all taxpayers and in the in
terest of the many million users of eler-
tricity, we think we ought to outline
our convictions and suggestions oD
river development and food control.
I. When dam is proposed, all of
its purposes should be clearly defred
in the Iegislation-food control, navi-
cation, irrigation or power. And just
as clearly, the benefit to the people af-
fected should justify the cost.
2. If power is produced at govern
ment-buiIt dams, it should be sold to
existing power systems, without special
privilege or discrimination. This will
save the expensive duplication of trans
mission facilities, help to coordinate

and assure its widest possible use ar the
lowest practical rates.
3. Any savings made possible by
this plan should be passed along to the
users of electricity, under regulation by
State Commissions or other properly
constituted regulatory bodies. This will
assure all the benefits of river develop
ment and hydro-power without the
added expense of government going
into business and competing with its
own citizens.
a. Government in any business en-
dangers all business. Government in
business escapes many normal business
obligations, enjoys free mail, pays no
federal taxes, and few, if any, other
taxes, little or no interest. If govern
ment can sell electricity on this basis, it
can sell shoes, groceries, automobiles,
or anything else the same way. Govern
ment may properly regulate business in
the public interest but should not Ober-

per cent of all those in towns and

coming year, the tomato again
ranked highest among the vege-

tory gardens this year, and are
high in gardening plans for 1945.
Onions were third most popular

lies in whether any thinking and
