Along The Potomac
from your Congressman,
DEWITT S. HYDE

WASHINGTON, May IL - Despite
the fight waged by members of the
Maryland delegation and others in
Congress, the st. Lawrence Seaway
bill was enacted last week. During
the debate on it took the floor to
point out eight reasons why / dis
approved the measure:
1. It would be open only part of
the year, frozen over in winter. 2.
1t is useless from a defense stand
point 3. 1t will not make iron ore
available to the U. S. at lower pricesa
a. 1t is on U. S. soil and cannot be
a Canadian venture alone. Those
who were for the bill argued that it
could be.
5. 1t will disrupt the extremely
important railroad transportation
system in the eastern U. S. This is
a prime defense facility. 6. It will
not be deep enough to be used by
American maritime vessels. 7. 1t
will severely hurt the coal industry
on which the nation must depend in
emergencies. 3. The electric power
to be developed with the Seaway
could be provided for separately and
privately, if needed.
Maryland will watch these de-
velopments closely, since it is situat-
ed in the heart of the rail and coal
industries. Congress will have more
to say about the Seaway construc-
ton when it is called on to appropri-
ate funds. In view of the likely
harm to American business (and the
fact that Canada will be chiefly bene-
fited) we do not feel the Seaway
will be wise expenditure of Ameri-
can taxpayers money.
The debate on Indo-china, which
tends to produce more heat than
enlightening information, continues
to be the No. news story. Secre-
tary Dulles report over the air last
Friday shows that the Administra-
ton has asserted its foreign policy
leadership without at the same time
abusing its power.
The question is one of Intervention
with American troops. The object
would be to save southeast Asia as
free territory. With the majority in
Congress, / believe there should be
no intervention unless it is a joint
project of our allies and the French
take sure steps to make their colonies
in Indo-China Independent nations.
Secretary Dulles has assured us
that both these conditions may ma
terialize. He has also assured us
that the Administrator will rest on
Congress decision. It remains now
to see what will be done diplomat
ically. The effort at Geneva has not
been successful because the Com
munists knew the thinking of our
Congress and that Mr. Dulles could
only go so far in his bluffing.
The current effort to gather the
southeast Asian nations into an al
lance is a major undertaking and
would call for a great shift IN our
military arrangements which have
done so much in making Europe Sc
cure. We can hope this effort will
be successful, and it would also seem
that it is the right moment to do
little praying.

Around Town WITT
The Editor

Although, as l stated in this coll
umn last week, consider the Army
Mccarthy hearings sorry spectacle,
1 am glad that the proposal to close
public hearings after Mccarthy takes
the stand and hold the rest of the
hearing in executive sessions, was
defeated.
For IA days Army Secretary Ste
vens has not only been brutally cross
examined by Mccarthy and his side
kick, Cohn, but during that time he
has also been subjected to what l
consider typical Communist tactics.
Now, what 1 am waiting for, is the
public cross examination of these two
men by Mr.. WEIGH, counsel for the
Army. Unless l miss my guess, that
cross examination, while it will be
conducted on the highest plane, will
really make Mccarthy and Cohn
squirm and we will see if they are
able to take their medicine with the
calmness and sincerity that Secre-
tary Stevens did.
l have my doubts!
Congratulations to the Hagerstown
High School band, which not only
was named the best Maryland High
School band in the School Patrol Pa
rade in Washington last week, but
was also named the second best High
School Band in the entire parade.
The band has been further honored
by being invited by Television sta
ton WAAM, of Baltimore, to make
a television appearance on that sta
ton on Saturday afternoon, May Is,
from $3.50 to 400 o'clock.

government finance"

government finance"
Important as governmental at
mosphere is, however, he continued,
"there is also an area of ideas and
thinking which is intimately ours,
individually.
"A serious problem of manage
ment, whether of government or
business, is finding time to think
deeply. 1t is almost impossible for
an executive to make all the deci-
sions, preside at all the meetings,
chat with all the important custom
ers, deal with the infnity of current
laws and regulations, digest the tons
of business literature and still have
enough time for basic thinking"
Using the railroad industry as an
illustration, the speaker pointed out
that: while the railroad industry
deserves bouquet for the extra
ordinary increase in efficiency which
has permitted it to make fine profit
with 1858 average revenue per ton
mile only 56.4 per cent above 1910,
but with average wage rates up 1882
per cent, fuel and materials up 1872
per cent and taxes up 1879 per cent.
Then there was other advances, such
as the vast conversion to the diesel
engine, the mechanization of main
tenance and the adoption of modern
signaling,
Nevertheless, in transportation, as
in every business, there just hasn't
been time yet for all of the funda-
mental thinking about where we are
and where we are going, that an
ivory tower philosopher would ex-
pect. But, since the railroad indus
try represents an investment of some
$50 billion and since it does a bus
mess of around $40 billion year,
perhaps the ivory tower philosopher
would have real point Perhaps
we should be devoting a great deal
more attention to where we are and
where we are going and to preparing
a definite blueprint of the route"
In closing, Mr.. Grotz spoke of the
third element-moral and spiritual
faith - regarding which he had this
to say:
Behind our daily concern with
our business activities you and l are
basically interested in people. We
are pleased to look forward to grow
ing demands and production because
they mean the satisfaction and hap
p1ness of us - of people.
But what will people be like in
this intensifying future? Can we
leave to chance the possibility of a
dlstraught materialism? I am sure
you can see no hope in that direc-
ton. MAN does not live by bread
alone.
From earliest colonial days Amer
leans have realized that beyond the
work OF their hands they owed an
unreasonable debt to Divine Provi-
dence. And in charting the route
ahead everyone of US should give
thoughtful and adequate recognition
to the basic part which devotion to
religion can play in strengthening
America in the future.
Religious faith cannot be counted
on to grow like wildfower along.

Pc. System Boosts
Potential Of Area

And Magazines Publicize Desir-
ability OF Area For Industrial
Plants.
The area served by the Potomac
Edison Company is being publicized
in series of advertisements appear
ing in many nationally known news
papers and magazines as a desirable
one for the location of industrial
plants.
The ads are being sponsored by the
West Penn Electric System of which
the Potomac Edison Company is a
part and are run in cooperation with
the Area Development Department
of that company.
One ad which recently appeared in
three large West Coast newspapers
carries a reproduction of a testi-
monial letter from Mr. Ralph Pryne,
President of Pryne & Company, Inc.
Mr.. Pryne's-company operates its
parent plant in Pomona, California
and recently opened an Eastern
branch plant in Keyser, w. Va.
The letter says in part, I'm order
to expand our facilities, our Com
pany was seeking new location for
its Eastern branch plant. We made
a very thorough investigation of the
possibilities over a wide area and in
the course of these Investigations
availed ourselves of the area devel-
opment services of the Potomac Edi-
son System"
This organization made available
detailed information which led us to
the city of Keyser, West Virginia
80. Because of the fine and effective
cooperation we received | feel that
other West Coast manufacturers
will find it advantageous to seek the
help of the same people
The other current advertisements
feature the favorable labor market
and market conditions of this area
and emphasize the availability of
buildings, factory sites, transporta-
ton facilities and manufacturing raw
material sources of supply.
The Potomac Edison Company
through its Area DEVELOPMENT De
partment is constantly cooperating
with many community and industrial
groups and other organizations in an
effort to actively aid the industrial
growth of this area.
In the past year, 1858, eighteen
new industries located in the four
state area served by the Potomac
Edison System. Many of these came
here through the cooperation of local
organizations and the Potomac Edi-
son Company.
The Area Development Depart
ment of the local utility company is
carrying through a continuing pro-
gram designed to interest manufac-
turers in the potential of the area
they serve.
In addition to the nationally pub
llshed advertisements, the company
is sending mailing pieces directed to
manufacturers over the entire United
States. Interested persons are per-
sonally helping in locating what they
need and much detailed information
essential to such business is develop
ed for them.
