WHO PAYS FOR POWER
TRUST PROPAGANDA?

The January 20, 1852 issue of
LOOK magazine carried a full-page
ad entitled, "a Government Honey
moon at Niagara Falls"
This ad, among other misleading
statements, contains the false state
men, that federal development of
the 100000 XIV of Niagara Falls
power potential would be paid for by
the taxpayer. The ad says, "You will
pay for it in taxes-over $350,000,-
00O."
Inquiry to LOOK magazine disclos-
ed that 124 electric companies spon-
sored the ad, including WWP, PP&L,
Idaho P. Co., Montana P. Co., and
Utah Pol Co.
Actually, of course, the ad was
raid for by the electric consumers.
Furthermore, since the companies
charge these lobbying and propa
ganda costs as operating expense,
deductible before income taxes,
good portion of the cost of such ads
is paid by the federal government.
The wage Garner and other federal
income taxpayers must then make up
in added taxes for the tax payments
thus lodged by the 'tax-paying, bus
free private enterprise
electric corporations"
AS to the ad itself, the proposed
federal development of Niagara Falls

Rural Identification
Needs In Asia To Be
Studied By UN Group

A study of rural Identification
needs in Asia is being planned by the
Economic and Social Council of the
UN, according to the International
Federation of Agricultural Producers.
The Councils commission on Asia
and the Far East will study present
power demands of rural consumers;
transmission and distribu-
ton systems, and proposed programs
for rural electrificaton. Increased
food production is possible in those
areas if an effective identification
program is inaugurated.

Gated the title to this fabulous wealth
would give away this natural, ma
tional resource - taking it forever
away from our children and our child
ren's children.
In further substantiation of the
Brightness of federal control of these
oil and gas reserves for the bene-
fit of all Americans, Bottomly re-
peated President Truman's 1916 veto
of similar measure, in which the
President outlined to the congress
his reasons for refusing to approve
the bill. 1t follows:
"The purpose of this measure is to
renounce and disclaim all right, title,
interest, claim or demand of the
United States in lands beneath tide
waters as defined in the Joint Reso-
luton
Contrary to widespread misunder-
standing the case does not involve
any tidelands, which are lands COW
cred and uncovered by the daily ebb
and flow of the tides; nor does it in
volve any lands under bays, harbors,
ports, lakes, rivers, or other inland
waters. Consequently the case does
not constitute any threat to or cloud
upon the titles of the several states
to such lands, or the improvements
thereon. When the Joint Resolution
was being debated in the Senate, an
amendment was offered which would
have resulted in giving an outright
acquittance to the respective states
to all tidelands and all lands under
bays, harbors, ports, lakes, rivers and
other inland waters. Proponents of
the present measure, however, defeat
ed this amendment. This clearly en-
phasized that the primary purpose
of the legislation was to give to the
states and their lessees any right,
title, or interest of the United States
in the lands and minerals under the |
waters within the mile limit :.
"The ownership of the vast quaint
ty of oil such areas presents vital |
problem for the nation from the |
standpoint of National defense and
If the United States
owns these areas they should not be |
given away. If the Supreme Court de- |
cides that the United States has no
title to-or interest in the lands, a
quitclaim from congress is unneces-
sary" (Emhpasis supplied)

way brotherhoods publication, 40

much to give away" the Associate
Justice asked ''Why don't the educa-

A number of Notebook readers
learned here for the first time
about a month ago, that railroads
were considering a modification
of the airlines' family plan to
cut the cost of rail travel. Re-
ports had it that the fare con-
cessions would come in time for
this summers vacations. Con-
flrmation came last week. A fam
lily plan, plus a system of price
reductions for persons travelling
in small groups, will 60 into ef-
feet June Is on a number of
eastern railroads.
Highlights of the two plans
are:
l. All adults will pay full fare,
but children under IL may ride
with them free; children IL to 16
will be charged only half fare.
Cat present, children 5 years old
or over pay half fare and those of
IL or more are charged full fare.)
2. When three or more adults
travel together, the fare per per-
son Is cut fiat Is per cent. The
third or fourth adult in the party
could be son or daughter 16 or
over, or the group might be simply
friends.
3. Both plans apply to travel
inland from the Eastern Seaboard,
not along it. For instance, neither
plan is applicable to Washington
New York traffic. New England
is excluded territory. So is the
South. The plans are not appli-
cable, either. beyond the western
terminals of the participating
eastern lines.
4. Reduced fares apply to travel
Of 100 miles or more, and round
trip tickets must be purchased.
Coach fares only are affected, and
the savings bring the cost of this
type of travel almost down to
prewar levels.

period Of intense negotiations by
the railroads came to a head on
May Is when the New York Gen.
trail filed a 30-day notice with the
ICC that it intended to institute
the family plan. Thirteen other
roads went along, and the group
travel proposal was thrown in.
Three lines serving Washington
are participating. They are the
Pennsylvania, the Baltimore and
Ohio and the Chesapeake and
Ohio.
Contrary to expectations, holi-
day and weekend travel is eligible
for the fare cuts. C. & O., how
ever, will not institute the reduc-
tions until July S, according to
the local Office. The experimental
fares will continue to October %.
So fast did the two plans
crystalize that the new tariffs were
not distributed to all railroad Of

Suppose two parents wish to travel
there with three children whose
ages are 6, 10 and 13. The cost
will be 212 adult fares. instead OF
three adult and two half-fares, as
at present. Each parent would
pay full fare, the 13-year-old
would ride on half fare and the
6 and 10 year olds would go along
free.

plan is three months; the group
economy plan, 80 days. Subject

purchased as late as mid-October
would be in force for the return
journey until mid-January.

cies in the several States affected.

Into New York State-The New

mass of vacation travel to the
and lake regions upstate
as we'll toward Canada and
along the Great Lakes-relayed
word from its New York office Fri
day that Washington travellers
would benefit under full reductions
of each plan on trips into its ter
ritory.
The question was: "The New
York Washington run is elimi-
mated under both the family plan
and the group arrangement. What
if D. c. vacationers want to go in
to the Adirondacks or the Finger
Lakes region? Do they get only a
saving from New York City north
ward. or would single ticket from
Washington be issued for the full
trip at the reduced rate?"
The answer came that reduc-
tions would be granted from
Washington to New York State
points. provided the destination
was so or more miles beyond New
York City.
