nations through the United Ma
tions. In other words, it looks
to a lot Of people in the world
like a power struggle between
the United States sand Russia.
The people well understand that
it means that that struggle will
rage not just in Greece and
Turkey, but in the Middle East,
in India, in China, in Korea, in
France and in every part Of the
world. Such a struggle will tear
the United Nations apart and
utterly destroy it. Then we will
be right back where we were be-
fore the last war.

VERY TRULY YOURS
By SENATOR CLAUDE PEPPER

Dear Friends: : D
Il is now clear to all that the
Presidents recent request res
pecting Turkey and Greece was
not just q request that the Con-
gress authorize relief for. Turk
ey and Greece. On the contrary,
II is now understood that the
Presidents proposal is, in inn
portance, compared to the aN-im-
.portant Monroe Doctrine, an
, n0unced more than hundred
years ago by President Monroe.
# now SENS that just as Presi-
dent Monroe's doctrine commit
ted thu United States to the de-
Tense Of the whole Western Hem
isphere. so does the Truman doc
trine now pledge us to pay for
the maintenance OF armies, to
furnish military missions and to
provide the money necessary to
resist Russian alleged commu-
nism in any part Of the world.
The President requests one
hundred and fifty million doll
ars for us to equip, train and
support the Greek army for the
next fifteen months and for au-
thority to send a military mission
to be attached to the Greek
army. This is not relief. II is for
armed forces.
Then the President requests
one hundred million dollars for
short term and long term eco
nomic assistance to the Greek
people.
The Gallup Poll has just an
nounced that fifty-six percent of
the people favor economic aid to
Greece. We should all favor all
the economic aid Greece needs.
! was there in 1945 and saw how
terribly Greece suffered from the
Germans. If that was all that
was involved in this matter, I
would be advocating that we
give more than the President
asks, although ! think it should
be done through the United Ma
tions.
The Gallup Poll, showed how.
ever, that a majority of the peo-
pie feel that this whole program
of aid to Greece and assistance
to Greece and Turkey in main
staining their security should have
been done by the U.N. And
the Poll showed that the Ameri-
can people overwhelmingly are
opposed to our sending military
missions to Turkey and Greece.
The RESOLUTION / have propos-
ed, with Senator Taylor in the
Senate and Congressman Blatnik
in the House, is in accord with
the sentiments Of the majority of
the people. We propose that we
act in this matter through the
United Nations. where we can
act both promptly and effective
". BY acting through the United
Nations, we strengthen the Unit
ed Nations as well as Greece and
Turkey. BY not acting through
it. we justify United Nations
official recently in saying, "The
United Nations cannot stand an
other blow like this.

people and what has troubled me

pockets inside out to prove it.
However, it will probably be-
come necessary to find funds.
If any appreciable amount of
traffic is forced to use the road
in its present condition the UNI
dertaking and towing business
will surely boom.
In many places now the road is
so narrow that two passenger
cars can scarcely pass without
taking to the shoulder. Curves
are sharp and not well banked.
Your guess is as abviouS as
ours as to what will happen when
the road is used by bus lines,
freight lines, school buses, heavy
equipment and heavy passenger
car traffic.
The accident rate has been ex-
tremely high even with the light
traffic on the road in recent
years. We won't be surprised if
insurance companies refuse TO
insure. cars that will be used on
that road.
Some funds will have to be
found somewhere and, soon.

until the power ALLEGATION
question is satisfactorily worked
out, it is not reasonable to ex-
pect the power transfer question
to be settled.
sAs 10 the matter of Federal
appropriations for Bonneville
feeder lines to Benton County,
the simple fact is that present
transmission facilities are adequ-
ate to carry all the power needed
by the area. No informed person
could conscientiously testify other
wise before a congressional com.
mittee. In fact, efforts to gel
appropriations for $4,000 OF
duplicating lines do vastly more
harm than good to Pacific North,

Dear Editor:
To the Courier Reporter.

To the Courier Reporter.
Management of the Benton
County PUD has no just critic
ism of Pacific Power & Light
Company If the district is really
in difficulty because of its pow
er supply situation.
mo one connected with the
district or with Bonneville had
any understanding or agreement
with us to transfer Bonneville
power to the PUD at the time it
took over our distribution pro-
perties in the county, and It was
plainly evident that power would
have to be obtained through us
to serve the people of the area.
1--WE have been supplying the
district with power at wholesale
rates, on record with the Depart
ment of Public Utilities at Olym-
pia, through transmission facili-
ties which the PUD deliberately
chose not to take from us in its
condemnation procedure. We
pay taxes on these lines, operate
and maintain them, and supply
tS1S Universally POWSA w VAC >AS-
trict.
IF the difference between the
cost of buying power at whole
sale from us or from Bonneville
is the determining facor in the
PUD present rate and revenue
problem, its management should
have thought twice before bor-
rowing 81 $50, 900 to plunge into
business.
Eve have had some discussions
with Bonneville about the possibi-
lily of transferring power to the
Benton PUD on the governments
account, but that question is nee
essarily tied in with the larger
question Of how the available
supply Of Bonneville power is to

was a statement made Saturday
by Gerwin Jones, vice-president
of Inland Anyways, now operat-
ing flying service from Walla
Walla and KenneWick to Seattle.
Having found time to get away
for q couple days last week %
make the round trip we can en-
dorse that statement. Kennewicl
should be proud to have this fine
service, linking us directly with
the worlds airways.
In flying over, an hour from
Vista Field to Seattle 1--WE were
reminded Of the first trip we made
over this course. That was in
1928. The new road over the
pass was then under construction.
We spent IL hours from Spokane
to Seattle. The road was not
surfaced, was deeply rutted and
we encountered numerous mud
holes.
The new road was completed.
It was still crooked and in many
places quite steep. Since that
time it has been largely rebuilt
again. Roadbeds were widened
and Strengthened. We thought
the ultimate had been approached
when it became possible to cover
the distance to Seattle comfort
ably in five hours.
Now comes talk Of Cascade
tunnel and further road improve
ments. But cars will need let
propulsion and then some to COM
pete with the liesurely hour that
is required by air.
