comprehensive plan for development
of the valley, and that this was to be
authorized unless congress, by affirm
ative action within 120 days, rejected
it. The argument ran that congress
ought to have more than 100 days to
consider what MVA had spent two
years doing.
The new bill gives congress until
its adjournment sine die after submits
sion of the plan to make up its mind,
but no plan submitted within 120 days
of adjournment can be authorized, un-
less congress so desires.
Another objection to the previous
bill was that MVA might ignore the
works and plans of other government
agencies which have been concerned
with valley development-prin
the army engineers and the bureau
of reclamation.
The new bill would direct MVA to
include in its master plan, so far as
possible, all programs undertaken by
these agencies with the approval of
congress. And it would require MVA
to take into account, in formulating

ors have it that Sen. Kelley, Powell

such appointments. However, Presi-

Keeley-Burke method didn't smack too
strongly of democracy-a nd-at one
stage of the game the affair became
so heated that Mr.. Eaton offered to
turn the reigns of the Senate over to
the Hon. Tom Burke, and he, the
elected head of that body, would So
journ to his office for the balance of
the session. Although, on Sunday, the
Senate majority seemed to see much
merit in the Keeley-Burke axis, and
granted it their wishes, come the
after, and they had had a
chance to deliberate more carefully
on the subject, the august group of
GOppers reversed themselves, and de-

Payment To States
The old bill authorized, but did
not instruct, MVA to make contribu-
tions to states for properties it might
acquire and remove from the tax
rolls. The new bill would direct"
MVA to pay under such circumstances
at least as much as the states lost
in taxes or five per cent of MVA gross
income from the sale of power, using
whichever basis of payment would
yield more to the states.
In areas where the Rural Electrifi-
cation Administration is operating, it
is to have preference, under the new
bill, for distribution of MVA power,
but restrictions would be imposed on
the direct sale of power by MVA to
farms and rural communities. In the
new bill there is also a specific re-
quirement that sales of power, wheth-
er to REA or private utilities, must
be reasonable and non-discriminatory

VETS REPORT
OVERP'AYMENT
Students Not Reporting En-
rOrs Are Refused Re-
Admittance
TO ARRANGE REFUNDS

Many World War II veterans IN
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Del
aware who have been overpaid on
subsistence allowance not due them
because of interruption in school or
job training and have not made ar
rangements to repay the overage,
will not be permitted to re-enter
/ school or training this fall under
the CT Bill unless they take steps
to refund this money, the Veter-
ans Administration has announced.
Veterans have been notified that
those who fail to arrange refunds
within 60 days will be ineligible for
re-entry, a VA Branch Office No. 3
Official said.
Arrangements for refunds should
be made with the VA regional Of
fee nearest the veteran or that Of
flee having jurisdiction over the es-
tablishment where he has been
training.
Failure of institutions and veter-
ans to report interruptions in
training and ceilings placed on
subsistence payments are two of
the reasons why veterans who have
entered training have received
spverpayments. The overpayments
are now being repaid by veterans
at the rate of S5,000,000 month.
Veterans approved for re-enter-
ing training may make restitution
in lump sum; may arrange for
future subsistence checks to be
withheld until their obligation is
paid; or, in hardship cases, may
have a small amount deducted
from their subsistence payments
each month. Those not resuming
their training should make other
arrangements to repay the money
due the government.
VA is required by law to collect
these overpayments. 1t is VAS
policy not to force any undue hard
ship on a veteran in the collection
of these funds.
Several factors are responsible
for the overpayments, VA said.
Chief among these is Public Law
679 which imposes ceiling on SUBJ
Isistence payments which may be
made to an employed veteran in
addition to his earned income. Pay
ments to these employed veterans
are based on statements of earn
ings that are submitted to VA.
Errors in these statements, or de-
lays in submitting them may re-
suit in veterans receiving excessive
payments. Other overpayments
have also resulted from retroactive
adjustments after subsistence pay
mentS had been made to veterans.
Another factor is the failure of
training institutions and veterans
to report promptly the interruption
or discontinuance of training. I'm
til these Interruptions are report
ed, the veterans continue to receive
their subsistence payments. Such
payments made after discontinue
ance of training are illegal pay
ments and should not be accepted
by the veterans.

Of sweet potatoes, eight ears Of corn,
a small bunch Of bananas.
A half sheet will buy pounds Of
Irish potatoes, a big bundle OF
bananas, or half days wages for
hard labor.
Such was the situation which DR..
A. L. GitloW of New York University
found among the Melanesians of
the Mount Hagen area of New
Guinea when he visited this remote
people, still living in the stone age,
about year ago.
The evil of paper money had just
come to this tribe--a heritage, like
so many curses, left by American
soldiers in the Pacific area. This
situation, DR.. GitloW explained,
came about in a peculiar way illus
trating the basic workings of eco
nomic law. When they were in
contact with the soldiers the natives
learned to smoke cigarettes. Previ-
ously they had smoked only an indi-
genous type of cigar.
JSeU 1OT ClgdTeCtes.
When the soldiers left. the supply
of rolled cigarettes was cut off. The
cigarette smokers learned that the
local missionary had supply of old
newspapers which could be torn in
bits and used as cigarette papers.
He was Immediately besieged and
the supply soon exhausted.
1t was then that the papers be-
came money" for the lucky holders
and the value of this currency
rapidly mounted. Every now and
then the missionary gets a fresh
batch. Natives think nothing OF
three-hour walk, with heavy bur-
dens, on the chance of being able to
trade for a few sheets.
Previously the currency had con-
sisted of shells, somewhat like In
dian wampum. The Americans
bought up a large supply when they
first arrived and put it in circula-
tion. The result was an enormous
depreciation in few months. One
type of shell formerly had been the
price of a 200-pound pig. Soon it
would buy only baby pig.
1t was necessary to get new,
sound currency to save the tribal
economy, a currency based on some
thing scarce and valuable.
Old newspapers were the answer.
