yakima Sportsmen Eye Irri-
cation Proposal Which May Ruin
Fishing"
That, my friends, in case you
didn't see it was an eight column
banner on one of the Sports pages
of the Sunday Spokesman-Review.
The article dealt with the Kenne-
wick Highlands project and
warned that Yakima sportsmen
would be ready to put a stop to
such a ridiculous thing as an
irrigation project if it ever gets
beyond the idea stage"
To give you an idea of how
silly the article was, here's one
paragraph:
"It is pointed out that there is
law which would require the
reclamation authorities to consult
with fish and game officials be-
fore any action is taken"
OF course there is such a law
and it's very much in effect.
Fact of the matter is land the
Spokesman-Review knows it even
if Yakima "sportsmen" don't that
the Fish and Wildlife Service has
already made an exhaustive study
of the effects of the Kennewick
project on fish and game. The
project plan has been approved
by that department. Not only has
it been approved but the de-
partment will allow a credit on
the construction cost because
the project improves the river
and provides nesting areas for
game birds.
In several other points the ar
ticle was all wet. However 1t
does raise basic question. Sup
pose it were a fact that the prof.
ect construction and diversion of
water would reduce the Yakima
to ''mere trickle" and thereby
ruin bass and whitefish angling
on the lower river. Who gets the
most good? A few hundred fish
ermen who get a few days fishing
a year or several hundred fam
lilies who will earn their livelihood
and produce a generous store of
wealth to the valley? A number
of thinking people are coming to
the conclusion that its time these
sportsmen quit squawking and
start doing something for them

selves. The farmer pays for con-
struction of projects and storage
water and then in addition pays
for every foot Of water he uses.
How about the sportsmen paying
for a little storage water too?
The state game department is
spending huge sumo of money
providing fishing and hunting.
The cleaning and restocking of
lakes is big undertaking. Who
yelled the loudest when fishing
and hunting license fees were
raised?
Under the law of the greatest
good to the greatest number the
United States has abrogated fish
ing treaties with the Indians and
will continue to do so. The same
should apply to rivers. There are
countless streams in this state that
will never serve any other good
purpose than for the fish they
yield. Others serve as CONNER
cial streams in different ways.
Let's use our streams to their
best advantage. The Yakima
river has certainly earned the
right to be an irrigation stream.
If necessary every drop of its
water should be used on our arid
but productive land. Let the
fishermen keep their streams.

Korea could become an instance of United States
Russian cooperation in peace, monumental as the
two powers achievement in war.
Or else the strategic peninsula between China and
Japan could become garng failure "trouble-spot'
and gravestone the most clearcut of all projects
which Russia and the United States have set out to
develop together.
Time is ticking off the answer and cooperation
has long appeared to be losing by default Recently
Secretary of State Marshall called upon the oviets to
end the deadlock which mad halted negotiations of che
joint Soviet-American Commission.
May Be Race for Power
Unless progress could be made toward unifying the
American-occupied southern half of Korea and the
Soyiet-occupied northern half, he said the United
States would proceed alone to build up its zone Un-
dersecretary Of State Dean Acheson earlier told a
Senate committee that funds would be needed for
this purpose
1t was also reported that the Sovies were recruit
ing Korean Red army in their sector
These Developments seen through the perspective
OF the Truman doctrine" enunciated in connection
with United States aid to Greece and Turkey, sug-
gested the likelihood of all-out race for power in
Korea unless the original intentions could be revived
on a basis of frank understanding.
Both Pledged to Assist.
Korea Is the only place in the world where the
United States and the Soviet Union face each other
openly IN nonex-enemy country that both are
pledged to assist Whatever obstacles prevent CO.
operation cannot be attributed to outside factors nor
is the atmosphere confused by local governments and
issues

ether-have long historical tradition Of ndepend-
ence, but they have no political leaders because for
40 years prior to WI day they held in subsection
by Tokyo.
Their country-a well-favored peninsula half
again large Floridais fertile for crops and rich
in minerals. Furthermore, it was developed by the
japanese into productive industrial region.
Now Gen. John r. Hodge, United States military
commander. says that America Is firmly committed to
the establishment of united, democratic independ-
ent" Korean nation. The Russians apparently seek
government either friendly subservient to them
selves. e4.s
Unfortunately for the present status, the 38th
parallel which divides United States and Soviet zones
also separates the industrial north from the agricu-
tural south. Americas Koreans eat but Russas have
the mines and factories.
Boundary Becomes Wall.
The intervening boundary has become wall
across which neither goods nor ideas are allowed to
pass freely
With Washington discussing a half billion dollar
fund to strengthen the southern zone and the
presumably building up power in theirs Koreans are
gloomy regarding their liberation
Lately, however the Soviets changed command
ers, and Gen. Hodge reported signs Of more friendly
attitude Observers speculate that Russia may attempt
to cooperate for Korean freedom to foresta United
States unateral action that would bring the Truman
doctrine to Asia.
"A report from Moscow last week said the Rus

ment concerned for him to visit its
territory. 1t must be obtained from
the embassy or consulate of the
foreign government In this country.
In many cases, the local official will
have to cable his home government
for authority to issue the visa.
Other necessary documents vary
in quantity and complicated form,
depending upon the countries to be
visited. Among those generally re-
quired are a health certificate,
smallpox vaccination certification,
police certificate of good character,
a landing card, and, in some cases,
a financial bond.
Aside from reducing the number
of documents required and simpli-
flying those which remain, the pro-
posals for speeding up foreign
travel are aimed at reducing the
time consumed in crossing from
Tiers even with all papers in order.
Simplifications Urged.
In this category are recommenda-
tions for simplifying and expediting
customs, police and health inspec-.
tions and currency control opera
tions at the places where travellers
enter foreign country. The prac-
tical suggestions include carrying
out all these inspections simulta-
neously to save time, either while
en- route in the case of train or ship
travel, or at single frontier sta
tion. Another annoyance would be
eliminated by having some official
agency, such as branch bank, con-
venient to the point of entry, to
change travellers money into the
currency of the country.
Among proposals for simplifca-
ton Of travel documents are sug-
gestions for uniform type of pass
port: that visas, where required, be
valid for at least one year regard
less Of the number of trips, and
that all countries honor. a uniform
type of health certificate.
The State Department and other
agencies Of this Government are
interested in doing everything pos
sible to make business and tourist
travel easier, both out Of arA into

World Governments Are Trying to Simplify Travel

or visa requirements, to most places
in the world. A maze of restric-
tions grew UP during the World War.
Conferences at Paris in 1920 and at
Geneva in 1926, held under League
of Nations auspices, helped to sim
plify them to some extent. Then
the restrictions became more COM
plicated than eyer with World
War II.
Air Travellers Slowed.
The concurrent tremendous ex-
pansion Of air travel has put new
emphasis on the need to simplify
documents and other formalities SO
as to give the international traveller
full advantage of speedy modern
transportation.
A report by an International
Chamber of Commerce committee,
submitted to the United Nations
this spring, pointed out:
In 1914, when trains were slow
er, motor cars in their infancy
and there were no airplanes, busi-
ness man could decide to make a
journey from one capital city to
another and accomplish the journey
in a matter of hours. In 1947, be-
tween making this decision and
putting in into effect, weeks and
even months may elapse. This
situation is today both absurd
and pernicious."
What causes such delays now?
Take the case of an American husi-
nessman going abroad. For most
places, he will need a passport.
This is g document by which the
United States Government vouches
for his identity as an American
citizen. To get it, he must apply
to the State Department, one of its
passport agencies in key cities, or
to Federal court. He must submit
his birth certificate or other salts
factory proof of citizenship, two
photographs and an affidavit from
some one who knows him personally
After he gets his passport, he
must obtain visas for each country
he expects to visit. The visa
stamped in his passport signifies the
oncial permission Of the govern
