deferred to a time when the econ

be considered a military necessity,
but is not part of the strategic
Bonneville network The dam alone
will bury 1900 tons of scarce met

Fortunes error is obvious, the
present new line from Kerr dam
to Hungry Horse is operated by
the Bonneville Power administra-
ticn, and Hungry Horse will be-
come part of the vital Columbia
power hookup. Hungry Horse will
become a great new wealth pro-
dllver, including increased output
Of metals now scarce.
Fortune magazines attitude is
typical of east coast industrialists.

Speaker Martin Urges
'Super-Defense in Air
BY the As.eeiaisd Press

DES MONIES, Feb. 9.-Speaker
Martin today called for "a super
defense in the air" to meet. any
emergency.
1--WE must have the most modern
and the most scientific defense ever
devised by man." he told Iowa Re-
publicans in addressing q Lincoln
Day luncheon.
such q defense is going to be
super-expensive," he added.
Speaker Martins remarks eli
NAKED a primarily agricultural
speech In which he observed that
farmers are now making money
and he said he was glad of it.
eve all realize that under condi-
tions in the world as they are to-
day. we must have a defense wholly
adequate to meet any sort OF emer-
gency which may arise" the Re-
publican House leader declared
'This means super-defense in the
air.
Speaker Martin challenged what
he called "the statement ." by
authoritative spokesmen OF the ad-
ministration that the Eight
ieth Congress by a pinch-penny
policy, had destroyed our national
defense and had caused it to be-
come about a f1fth-rate defense"

CD Sees Heavy Cost
In Universal Traininq
By the Associoted Press

The CIO declared critically today
that universal military training
would cost the country $1,000 900 900
a year. -
In an article re- emphasizing CLOS
opposition to President Truman's
UNIT proposal, the CIO monthly
Economic Outlook" took issue with
an Army Department estimate that
the. first half-year Of training would
cost 81 ,750, 100000 in taxes.
This and similar estimates do not
include "the indirect costs in loss
of production, increased venereal
disease and mental-emotional ILL
ness" the publication said.
Meanwhile, Senator Capper, Re
publican, of Kansas charged that
some high ranking armed service
officers do not favor compulsory
military training but Army regula-
tions prevent them from saying so.
"It Is my understanding" he said.
That a number of the best minds
Il in the armed services, including some
top ranking generals, do not believe
in compulsory military training, but
these are barred from expressing
their view by Army regulations.
I'VE may hear from some OF them
later on, as they are retired, or as
their sense of citizenship rises above
Army regulations" the Senator
added in a statement prepared for
radio broadcast. Senator Capper
added that he will vote against any
of the pending bills calling for uni
yersal military training.
