bill to Gen. Hershey.
The new draft law. approved bv
Congress as compromise last
Tuesday after bitter battle of
four months duration, was disap-
polntment to the Army and Navy.
Selective Service officials pro-
tested that they would be unable
to meet Army needs without call
ing up 18-year-olds.
The lower chamber voted $50 tn
ITO for the compromise starting the
induction age at 10. The Senate
approved the compromise without
debate by voice vote in which
only Senator Revercomb (R. West

The new draft act exempts
fathers and authorizes the release
of fathers now in service upon re-
quest after Aug. l.
1t limits length of service bv
draftees to l8 months. After Oct
l, men who have completed IA
months service exclusive of time
spent in schools will be released

There will be at least several
hundred young men in Noble

DECATUR, Ala, Dec. 30.-Deepwa-

of the river and industry hits top
speed on the shores of the stream.
Farm yields are increasing on small
er acreages since the river is con-
trolled by a series of dams and mil
lions of folks in the Tennessee Val
ley have all sorts of confidence in
the days that will follow the war.
They foresee continued growth, full
scale development of water transpor-
tation, improved and continually d.
versifying farming methods.
This is the opinion of John A. Cad
dell president of the Decatur cham
Der of commerce, who has watched
the city of Decatur grow from $4,000
to $4,000 people since IVA started
IL years ago. Continuing, Caddell said:
"The federal government wisely de-
cided to control the Tennessee River,
now the only controlled river in the
world. The several millions of people
in the valley decided to make the most
of new opportunity, are capitalizing
upon low-cost transportation, low-cost
power, and are practicing scientific
farm development. The fundamentals
were provided through IVA; the peo-
pie are doing the work. iva helps
when called upon, does not direct,
and when you call on IVA, you'll
find the officials right here in the
valley living with and working among
our own people day by day"

BY PRENTICE COOPER
Governor of Tennessee

To the Editor of The
ST. Louis Post-Dispatch:
The people of the United States
are entitled to development of their
country's natural resources. The only
instrumentality capable of effectively
developing great river valley is the
federal government.
IVA benefits not just a region but
the country as whole. The agency
is justified from the standpoint of ma
tional defense alone. Our country
needs to develop great power re-
sources in the interior, where installa-
lions are less vulnerable to attack
than in coastal regions.
IVA already has affected tremen-
dous savings in flood control, and will
provide extended protection after the
war, when additional dams are con-
structed and reservoirs are operated
for this purpose. National commerce
has benefited from improvement of
the inland waterways and cheap trans
portation rates.
People throughout the Tennessee
Valley are enjoying low electric rates
which the private companies used to
tell us were fantastic and impossi-
ble." Our farms have been electrified,
and rural life has been made more
profitable and enjoyable. You will
notice that, in speaking of IVA bene-
fits | have placed several things
ahead of cheap power. Power devel-
opment is only one of the phases of
this regional plan.
l have heard the argument that a
regional authority centralizing control
over a major drainage basin interferes
with states rights, and l consider it
an example of cloudy thinking. 1t
comes from failure to recognize what
is natural field for federal govern
ment From the beginning of this ma
ton, development of natural resources
has been considered federal field.

Survivor Hunt Goes On
In the Pacific

When the war in the Pacific ended
the navy believed that some of it's
men who had survived plane crashes
or ship sinkings were stranded on the
atols and coral reefs that dot the
vast expanse of water where the fight
ing ragged. But an exhaustive search
has failed to produce a single sur
vivor awaiting rescue. On five islands
there was evidence indicating that
allied personnel had been there but
the men could not be located Here
and there among the thousands of
atolls plane wreckage was found and
the graves of flyers who were buried
by the natives. The search also COW

spite of the thoroughness of the search
however, it is still possible that some

is manufactured by North Carolina
firm.
| am a strong believer in states
rights, but IVA has done nothing
which to my mind embodies any
threat to the rights of this state. In
building Fontana dam, for example,
it was necessary for IVA to pond a
highway. The agency agreed to build
satisfactory substitute road and also
to extend a park area. There was
nothing arbitrary about this, the
whole thing being arranged through
amicable negotiations.
Swain County has been deprived of
a large part of its taxable land values
by ponding for Fontana dam, it is
true, but this loss has been largely
offset by IVA payments in lieu of
taxes. Certain IVA revenues are paid
into the state treasury, and this mon
ey is distributed to the affected coun-
ties on the basis of formula recog-
nized as equitable and satisfactory.
My only complaint about IVA is
that power generated in North Caro-
lima is used by factories located main
ly in other states. would like to
see the federal government place more
war industries in this state, but /
cannot hold iva responsible for the
policy in this regard.
To sum up, North Carolina has
found IVA to be thoroughly compel
ent and cooperative, and public senti-
ment in the state is highly favorable.
