MONTANA wheat FARMERS WOULD have LOST
S42 MILLION UNDER COP FARM PROGRAM

Had the weak, fumbling and in
effective COP farm policy, as ex-
pressed in the Hope-Aiken bill, pre-
vailed, Montana farmers would have
lost $42,OOO,O00 on their present
wheat CROP" State Democratic Chair
man II. B. Landoe has charged.
owe have been advised by State
Commissioner of Agriculture Alfred
R. Anderson that he considers the
COP farm plank reflects the Hope
Aiken ideas; but even more so that he
considers the Republican platform as
it relates to Agriculture "a snare and
a delusiOn.'
"Mr. Anderson is a veteran Mon
tana farmer and a former Republi-
can. He knows our farm problems
and he is sincerely concerned as to
what a Republican administration
would do to Agriculture" Landoe
stated
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1952-10-31

The Bureau of Reclamation is
building this facility for Uncle Sam.
Years of promoting and planning by
many responsible citizens and public
officials were required to get con-
gressional approval of the project.
Lawmakers gave approval only after
feasibility was established in a null
ti-purpose project providing for flood
control, irrigation and power pro-
duction. Irrigation was one of the
compelling reasons for the project
but to meet the high cost of irriga-
ton requirements it was necessary
to plan public power units in the
project so that sales of low-cost cleo
tricity could be used to help pay for
the job and bring irrigation within
reach of ranchers and farmers at
lower costs. To place justification
for the project on irrigation only
was impossible.
The Montana Power Company
fought the project bitterly from the
start. Company spokesman assail-
ed the project as ''waste of taxpay-
ers money" used political action in
an effort to stop approval and main
tanned steady noise in opposition.
Some spokesman went so far as to
call it socialism. Then with the
signing of the wheeling agreements
last year company opposition sud-
denly ceased and now it appears that
the project is a good one-for the
company.

CONTRACTS HAVE BROAD
APPLICATION

January, 1851, officials of the
Bureau of Reclamation signed two
contracts with the Montana Power
Company, giving the latter the right
to transport over its lines the electric
energy generated at government
dams for delivery to customers of
the United States Government. One
contract, otherwise known as "a
wheeling agreement, dealt specifi-
cally with transporting Canyon Fer
ny power and the other very broadly
applies to public power produced in
"the areas east of the Continental
Divide"
The federal government develop
ment plans in the Canyon Ferry area
included along with the building of
power plant and other facilities,
the construction of a power trans
mission line from East Helena near
the dam to Great Falls for the pur-
pose of wholesaling power to rural
electric co-operatives, public bodies,
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1952-10-31

"The Hope-Aiken bill, with it's
new formula for determining parity
with flexible price supports, had the
COP prevailed, would have allowed
only $1.65 per bushel support price
for wheat. AS it is, the Democratic
administration provides 900 parity,
or 1921 per bushel for our Montana
wheat" Landoe explained.
"Alfred Anderson mas advised me
that the Hope-Aiken bill would have
taken Sc cents per bushel from the
support price of our estimated Is
million bushel crop for 1852" the
Democratic Chairman stated. I'm
agine what that kind of reduction in
farm income would do to our mer-
chants and our whole state economy"
Landoe explained.
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1952-10-31

agree to longtime wheeling con-
tracts. The wheeling contract deal
is long story, but in short the COM
pany has very favorable position
with regard to public power in Mon
.tana, and bitter opposition to such
Socialism" has melted into what APP
pears to be good cheer. Power con-
sumers, however, are still paying high
electric bills and the general tax
payers are paying for the dams and
expensive machinery.
LONGTIME CONTRACTS
The wheeling contract on Canyon
Ferry power provides that Uncle
Sam is to pay the company $4,000
year rental on the two company
lines running from East Helena to
Great Falls and compensates the
power company five per cent for
line loss. The agreement terminates
December 81, 1975-a long time!
Plans for government transmits
sion line were dropped as soon as
the wheeling agreement was announc-
ed although the money had been ap-
propriated and about $4,000 spent
on surveys and some engineering.
The lowest bid on the proposed
government line was 81, 231, 1853. Dur
ing the % years the wheeling con-
tract will run after power production
at Canyon Ferry begins in 1858 the
government will pay the power COM
pany total of 100000 in addition
to five per cent for line loss. This
expenditure is for rental only and
the government will still not own
the property.
COMPANY BOTTLENECK
The company lines, it appears, will
serve as bottleneck to the distri-
button of government power from
Canyon Ferry thus creating surplus
power at that point. Presumably
then the power company will be the
sole customer of government power
at the bus bar. Surplus government
power is classified as dump power
and for some strange reason is sold
to private power companies for only
2H mills per XVIII. The company
will be free to sell this tax-free pow
er anywhere for it's own higher |
rates.

Negotiate Wage Increases

irrigation projects, government ag-
encies and other power users. The
Helena line would have connected
with the government transmission
line from Fort Peck to Great Falls.
Through other connections with the
rural electric cooperative lines and
existing private power lines the pro-
posed federal lines would have form
ed the beginning of a power grid to
strengthen all the power facilities in
northern and central Montana.

POSSIBLE PUBLIC POWER
GRID IMPORTANT

A future possibility, had the Hell
ena line been completed. was a tie
in with the Bonneville government
line coming into the Anaconda area
from Spokane via Hot Springs and
Missoula. The Helena to Great
Falls government line would be of
concern to power consumers served
by the co-operatives on the Havre-
Shelby government line also since
that facility ties in with the Fort
Peck-Great Falls line. Furthermore,
it should be borne in mind that much
Hungry Horse public power will
eventually go into the Bonneville
system. Low-cost power feeding the
REA lines in Montana from Fort
Peck, Canyon Ferry and Bonneville
would be a boon to farmers, and
ranchers and their struggling power
co-operatives almost everywhere in
the state.
There is a shortage of power in
Montana and while there have been
some recent reductions in price the
kilowatts still come too high.
COMPANY OPPOSITION MELTS
WHEN
The power company fought all
these developments Peck, Can
yon Ferry, Hungry Horse, Havre-
Shelby and the Helena-Great Falls
line There was no stopping the pow
er projects although some of them
have been much delayed. When the
success of the Havre-Shelby line was
assured the big private power COM
pany came out with a new contract
for REA's reducing power rates from
9H mills per XVIII to a figure in
competition with the government
postage stamp" rate of 51a mills
providing the rural electric co-ops
met certain company conditions. In
addition the company quietly got of
ficials of the Bureau of Reclamation
and the Department of Interior to
