He approved Government con-
struction of power lines where
private enterprise had failed to

to the Government putting up
lines paralleling existing lines.

that he probably has some bad
apples" among the $4,000 en-
ployes at Interior. He chuckled:

them under Civil Service"

Mr.. Mckay declined to predict
