Frankly she told her own
people what is keeping them
from getting Hell's Canyon
Dam. It is the Idaho Power
Co., a Maine corporation which
makes its money in Idaho, but
holds its annual meetings of
stockholders in Augusta, Me.
The ten largest stockholders
are investment or insurance
companies - five in Boston.
and one each in Philadelphia,
Hartford. Chicago. Milwaukee
and Los Angeles.
The company, in trying to
block Hell's Canyon, now has
before the Federal Power
Commission here alternate
proposals for the company
itself to build either one small
dam and maybe eventually
four other small ones. or two
small ones and one medium
sized one. This would not
utilize the real potentials at

She is a symbol in this Con-
gress of the uphill struggle
that must be waged to pre-
serve the great public prof.
ects already in existence and
to expand the reclamation
program started so years ago
by Theodore Roosevelt. that
has meant so much for the
West. Hell's Canyon is part
of the blueprint for the fu-
ture-if there is to be a future.
That is threatened by the
private utilities which have
financed an organized propa-
ganda campaign to turn con-
troll Of existing projects paid
for by the taxpayers over to
the power companies and to
prevent any future public de-
velopment. Mrs. Pfost ex-
planned that 1875 power COM
panies spent $4,000 to print
an advertisement fig h ting
Hell's Canyon Dam, part of an
advertising campaign in which
over a million dollars a year is
being spent.
"You pay for it in your
power bills-you pay the costs
of pouring false propaganda
into your own minds" she told
her people.
The atmosphere here is most
favorable for the gigantic raid
on our water resources. Many
in Congress, as well as some
key figures in the administra-
ton, seem to have taken the
election as q mandate for
turning the clock way back in
our natural resources program
The only check now is the

certainly the people were not
voting to turn the clock back
last November.
How effective a single Rep
resentative can be may be
measured by her determine
ton, her thorough grasp Of
what is involved for all Of our
people. and the clear and
simple and outspoken way
she analyses the purposes of
the utility campaign. ALI this
she exemplif1ed in a speech a
few days ago before the Ma

Francisco. In a veritable field

project properly against the
larger background of existing

As a plain matter Of good

enriched the immediate region.

markets for the products OF

They not only pay for them
selves, but they pay their cost
many times over In income

the regions yield. That is dem

Thomas L. Stokes:

pose.
There is a woman in the
House of Representatives with
a purpose. She is Mrs. Oracle
Pfost of Idaho, one Of the few
Democrats who unSeated in
cumbent Republicans, quite a
feat in the Eisenhower tide.
She won with a 591-vote mar
gin out of some 100000 cast
in Idaho's first district, chiefly
by campaigning for her pur-
pose.
That purpose is Hells Can
yon Dam, not exactly lady
like in name. and more like
a great Paul Bunyan under
taking in scope. The project
would call for a mammoth
dam straddling the canyon OF
that name on the Snake
River along the Idaho Oregon
boundary 1t would impound
four million acre-feet of water
and provide a reservoir SO
miles long. It would thereby
harness the river to generate
over a million kilowattS of
electric power, to control floods
and irrigate approximately
a million acres in Idaho. Wyo-
ming and Oregon. 1t would
afford a waterway to a hith-
erto almost inaccessible noun
tain area rich in minerals.
particularly .phosphates for
fertilizer, which are now dwin-
ding in supply.

eager for the fight ahead, but
