WHY WAIT?
Having recovered, more or less, from the
thlrty-slx day run of the televised, ARMY
Mccarthy extravaganza last spring, It IS
interesting to learn that the Mundt COM
committee Is in something less than agree
ment on what it found out. Four separate
reports were required to set forth what the
seven members thought the hearings had
proved.
!, There was the majority report, signed by
all four Republicans; the minority repOrf
signed by the three Democrats, and separate
reports by Republicans Dirksen and Potter.
Ihey agree that a buck private named G.
David Schlne threw the whole u. S. Army
into q spin, The majority report said It
wasn't Senator Joe, but his chief counsel
Roy Cohn, that stirred thing up. The minor

THE TRUTH ABOUT PARTNERSHIP
One Of the best ideas developed by this
administration has been the "partnership"
plan on electric power development But #
mas Deen widely misrepresented
Partnership does not mean the end of /
public power. 1t does not mean that great
resources VIII be given away to ruthless I
private interests for exploitation 1t does
mean, to the contrary, that the federal COW
eminent, state and local government. and
private enterprise will work together to de- /
v,elop needed projects in the quickest poss-
lDle time and at the lowest possible cOst-to /
me benefit OF every consumer of the power. /
lt means that important new sources of tax
revenue will become available for govern /
lnent on all levels. And the work will be
00ne under regulations, laws and contracts
which will fully protect the interest Of an /,
concerned, and make exploitation of the pub /
lie impossible
II IS q function of government to control
ar fr an n lie Il
by-product Of such operations. But ii IS not
q function Of government to provide US with Il
any other commercial service or commodity
Under partnership, regulated private enter

has prevented it from doing. The people win 4

sorely need. Z
