NASHVILLE TENNESSEAN
Editorial, July Is, 1851

For the simple reason that it has
worked SO we'll, the flood control
program of the Tennessee Valley
Authority is often all but overlook
ed when Twas benefits to this re-
gion are assessed.
The benefits of this aspect of the
IVA operation are brought home
forcibly, however, by the millions of
dollars worth of damage being wreak-
ed by rampaging waters in Kansas
and Missouri. Though it offers lit
tie comfort now to the thousands of
residents of that area who have lost
so much, the fact remains that a
Missouri Valley Authority could
have averted much of the destruc-
ton being heaped on numerous cit
les and acres of rich agricultural
land
According to the last annual IVA
report, the Authority's flood control
program has saved the Tennessee
Valley $45, 100000 since 1888. When
compared to estimates of the Mid
west flood damage-which go as high
as 81 900, 000, 000-this may seem
to be relatively small sum.
1t is a significant figure, how
ever because it shows that a COM
prehensive flood control program
incorporated into a valley devel-
opment plan does provide reason

JOURNAL, July II, 1851

AS usual the United States Senate

mittee threatened to wreck the Pa
cific Northwest's power development
program by slashing $60,100, 900

for McNary Dam (key to the cur

FLOOD CONTROL IS POSSIBLE
IVA Provides Flood ConroEThe Missouri Valley Should
Have Flood Control Protection

able safety from disasters like that
now seen in Kansas and Missouri.
In it's report issued earlier this
year, the Presidents Water Resour-
ces Policy Commission said the devel-
opment of possible multiple-purpose
projects on the Missouri river and it's
tributaries "would protect the maj
points now subject to flood damage
and would provide the maximum
feasible amount of reliable flood
protection and control"
Yet, this protection has been den
led to the people now suffering be-
cause of both local and national OPP
position to an MVA. Even limited
projects have been long blocked. In
1888, for example, Congress approx
ed two reservoirs on Missouri tribu-
taries that would have made the cur
rent situation much less serious. But
those reservoirs were never built,
largely because of the hostile reac-
ton of residents whose land would
have been inundated.
In the wake of this present catas-
trophe, it is possible that the people
of Missouri and Kansas will reexam-
inc their attitudes about flood con-
troll and that the outsiders who have
opposed Missouri Valley Authority
because of it's cost will recognize
their false economy.

and voted to limit the personnel Gu

the Senate voted 81 to 10 against
cutting $16,O00,O 900 from going re.
clamation projects.
All power interests in the Pacific
| Northwest, public and private. have
united in requesting the Senate APP
preparation Committee to restore
House cuts on McNary, Albeni Falls,
Ice Harbor, The Dalles, and the
Dexter re-regulating dam at Look
out Point.
The Columbia basin interagency
committee, composed of Pacific
Northwest representatives of feder-
al agencies and state governments,
has requested the defense mobiliza-
ton board to intercede with the SEN
ate committee in behalf of the same
projects.
SAME EFFECT AS A BOMB
AS pointed out by the Pacific
Northwest Public Power bulletin, cuts
proposed by the House committee
would have the same effect as would
the bombing of Bonneville dam. They
would reduce aluminium production
by 100000 tons a year and they
would continue the Pacific North
vests power shortage indefinitely.
Only excuse given by the House
committee for its devasting cuts was
an unwillingness to appropriate any
funds for new projects and the OPP
position of the fish interests.
We submit that this is false econ
omy and faulty reasoning.
The Pacific Northwest is danger
ously short of power.
This places restrictions on indust-
rial development and war connected
industries such as the light metal
and heavy chemical, shipbuilding,
and aviation industries.
And increasingly heavy and i'm
perative power demands are being
made by the Hartford plutonium
plant.
The power projects at issue are
self liquidating. The regions feder-
al power system has already return
ed more than 1924, 100000 to the
United States Treasury, making pos
sible net profit of $68,00O,00O.
In short Uncle Sans investment |
n Columbia basin power development
has proved sound.

matte. business-like basis.

The Heating Amendment
LOBBYING PAYS OFF FOR PRIVATE
POWER COMPANIES

lobby, headed by Purcell L. Smith,
The highest-paid lobbyist in Wash
ington, Smith receives $65, 900 year
as president of the National Asso-
citation of Electric Companies which
includes 102 private power compan-
les in Al states and the District of
Columbia. Under his direction, the
state private power representatives
since the beginning of the year have
held luncheons and dinners for Con-
gressional delegations to spell out in
the name of economy" the reasons
why Congress should scuttle public
power. They reaped the fruits of
those labors a few days ago.
The Senate amended the Heating
amendment to provide that the gov
eminent cannot build transmission
lines except where the Secretary of
the Interior determines that the priv
ate company is unwilling" or "un-
able" to do so. Introduced by Sen.
Lester Hunt, 3D., Wyo.), the amend
ment passed by voice vote.
Interior Department officials
point out that it is little better
than the Heating amendment since
private power companies will
seldom let themselves be found in
the position of being unable or un-
willing to build a transmission
line
While the Senate restored some of
the overall House cuts, it slashed APP
for the So million of
lines in Western Mis-
souri,, California, and Colorado. Adj
leaders were unable to
retain the permanent 100000 con-
5inuing fund of the Southwestern
Power Administration, designed to
permit the government to purchase
power for resale. Last year, for
the government used $780,
700 of the fund to purchase power
which it sold for ST million. The
Senate provided $250,000 contin-
ling fund for this year, but the In
erior Department must now ask
Congress each year for approval of
he fund. The power lobby will un-
loubtedly attempt to kill the fund
