Public Power Projects Peri|ed
Organized Foroy Against Federal Program Charged
To LOBBYISTS for Giont Privote Utilities

Concentration of public inter-
est on the "Truman-MacArthur
row" has diverted attention
from many other things. includ-
ing something that's going on
in the House of Representatives
that affects people in many
parts of the country.
There lobbyists of private
utilities have been enjoying the
spectacle as the House whacks
down appropriations for contin-
ued orderly extension of elec-
trio service and facilities under
the combined public private
development program long pur-
sued.
This is the best organized
foray by giant electric utilities
since the 80th Congress. They
are engaged in a sort of gang
ing-up maneuver to block. In
area after area, the building of
necessary Government trans
mission lines from public power
projects and to restrict so-called
wheeling" arrangements for
power production and distribu-
ton comparatively by Govern
ment and private utilities which
have proved highly profitable to
the latter. They want to re-
serve the field for themselves,
even though in many cases they
are not prepared to expand their
lines and facilities to provide
needed power at low rates.
This all impingeS on the ma
tional defense program, for con-
tinued expansion of facilities is
necessary to meet a continuing
power shortage that affects de-
fenSe installations of various
kinds. It may be recalled that
we got caught short, power-wise,
in the last war and had to ex
pand rapidly. We would have
been In a much more serious
plight then but for the giant
public power projects already
existing, such as iva and the
Pacific Northwest developments,
that were ready for utilization
for production Of aluminium and
eventually atomic energy.
Appropriations being subject
ed to the item by item, area by
area, attack are authorized in
the pending Interior Depart
ment appropriation bill. The
battle is continuing this week,
with final decision expected late
this week. The public in the
areas involved, and they in
clude the Pacific Coast, Montana
and Idaho, the Southwest and
Southeast, are becoming aware
of what Is going on and will be
watching. especially when eff
forts are made by record votes
to restore some Of the cuts be-
ing made.

Henry McLen1ore:

7 have finally figured out why
Aneurin Beyan resigned as
Minister of Labor when it was
suggested that Englishmen pay
something for their false teeth
instead of getting them free
under the National Health
Service.
At first I didn't understand
why he should get so mad about
this. but Mr.. Bevan's valedictory
speech in the House of Com
mons made it quite plain.
He wants free dentures for
the Kings subjects so that
every one of them will be able
at times to bite the hand that
feeds him.
Meaning American hands.
Now If Englishlnen have to
pay a few shillings for their
uppers and lowers it is quite
possible that a few Of them win
have to do without the proper
biting equipment, and instead
of feasting of Americas sue
culent hands will have to chew
on Yorkshire pudding, or like
stuff.
Mr.. Bevan feels that any
Englishman deprived of taking
solid ships out of the hand that
feeds him is not being given a
fair deal. He feels it isn't
cricket, and he resigned rather
than have any of his country
men suffer such an indignity.
His two slogans, with which
he will stump the country in
an effort to gain control of the
Labor Party for the southpaw
section of same, are Back to
Socialism" and Independence
from America"
Another thing that annoyed
Mr.. Bevan into quitting was
the proposal that spectacles not
be free, either, but that English
men be made to pay half the
cost Of them. Perhaps a crisis
could have been averted on this
issue had Mr.. Churchill and his
party suggested that monocles
be given free, but spectacles be
paid for. A monocle is, after
all, half a pair of spectacles.
The sight of millions of Eng
lish workers wearing monocles

Moist Christmas
Trees Prove Best
Fire Resistants

Water is the best fireproofng
material for Christmas trees, says
F. w. Dean, extension forester at
Ohio State University.
A tree that is fresh to begin
with will keep color and fragrance
if it gets plenty of water. Moist
fresh trees do not burn easily.
Dean says a 5-foot tree can use
as much as a cup of water a day
Every needle, especially in the
warm, dry air of a home, gives
off moisture. This moisture must
be replaced if the tree is to stay
fresh.
A rack, fitted over a Water-con
tainer, will hold the tree in water
Rack and container may be con
cealed by metal foil or some other
trimming. Weights in the con
tainer, such as stones or bricks
will help keep the tree from top
pling.
One way to see whether a tree
is fresh when you are ready tc
buy is to shake it to see whether
needles fall. Falling needles show
that the tree is old and will be
come a nuisance in the home
Old trees, furthermore, can not
take up enough water
Dean says to throw water over
the tree as soon as you get il
home. Then cut about an inch
from the butt end. This cu'
should slant across the trunk. A
fresh cut opens pores so they car
draw up water.
