IVA pays state and local taxes,
too. 1t paid $3,579,O0O last year.
These are fixed at so, of it's power
| revenues, exclusive of sales to
federal agencies. This so is then
divided up among the seven states,
counties cities, school districts, and
townships. The coop and city
owned utilities that IVA serves
paid another $685. 900 in state
and local taxes.
The new plan for revenue bond
financing won't disturb IVA repay
ments to the U. S. treasury. IVA
will go on making these on present
investments. Returns on future in
vestments would pay off the revenue
bonds.
TWAS friends in Congress like the
idea. Ordinarily ,other congressman
would oppose it. They want to keep
IVA tied down. They want IVA to
come to Congress hat-in-hand when
ever it needs a new power plant, more
generators at dam, or another trans
mission line.
But among these IVA opponents
are numerous lawmakers even more
eager to balance the federal budget.
If IVA issues revenue bonds for new
power equipment, they won't need
to appropriate money for Twas pow
er needs and can thus reduce federal
expenditures.
TWAS 40 earnings and it's re-
payments ahead of schedule are
based on low-cost, abundant power.
The average IVA residential Gus
toner uses almost twice as many
kilowatt hours as does the average
such customer elsewhere. Yet in
TWAS area his power bills run
1919 less. Farmers and city resi-
dents pay an average of 1.26c
kilowatt hour in the Tennessee
valley; they pay 2.72c a kilowatt
hour throughout the nation
Besides their power investments,
U. S. taxpayers have put another
5000 million into iva. This money
vent for navigation, flood control,
fertilizer development, reforestatlon,
oil and water conservation, and
Malaria control.
This money won't come back to the
J. S. treasury. And presumably, Con
.ress will go on appropriating money
or these purposes in the Tennessee
alley, just as it does in other parts
f the country.
But these ventures, too, have paid
if. Flood control cost IVA $2,435,
90 last year, including depreciation.
-et even in dry year, the dam sys-
en- prevented two spring-time floods
t Chattanooga that would h ave
rrecked property worth S7,600,000.
Money IVA spent in other ways
as been repaid many times over in
ealth, in soil, in prosperity. In hard
ash terms, iva has helped these
tizens of once-blighted area be-
ome taxpayers to the federal treas
ry.

the so-called Dixon Yates case"

pany practices which were so
roundly denounced by the Federal
Trade Commission only two decades
ago.
In a brief filed with the SEC on
December29, APPA warned the COM
mission of the "many parallels and
urged an investigation of an sal
legged attempt to exert pressure on a
witness testifying for opponents of
the Dixon Yates contract"
APPA's comment on ''pressuring
of witness" referred to the testi-
money of Frededic Kellogg, Univer-

dean. Kellogg, who appeared before
the SEC as an expert witness on the
location of the proposed utility plant,
said that pressure had been exerted

Mission for


A dialogue mission" de-
signed primarily to acquaint
Protestants with c atholic c
teaching and beliefs, will be
conducted Oct. 2 to IA at st.
James the Less Church.
Father John z. Byrne, CPS.
pastor, announced this week that
two Paulist missionaries from De-
troit, Mich, will conduct the
unique mission. Such topics as sin,
confession, death, eternity, eucha-
rist and marriage will be discuss
ed.
The first mission, for women
only, will begin Sunday, Oct. z,
and will extend through Oct. 7.
The second mission, exclusively
for men, Is scheduled Oct. 2 10
IA. Sessions are scheduled daily
al 8 pm.
Primary objective of the mission,
Father Byrne declared, is the pre-
seftation of a clear, straight
forward explanation of the bas1c
truths of the Catholic religion and
their application to present day
living.
An unusual teaching technique
will be employed by Father Sfe-
phen Lsfehford and Father
Mevfin Lon1bsrdi in fhe conduct
OF ths mission. From opposite
puIpiis the fwe missionaries will
engage in . discussion. One
priest viii present ths Catholic
teaching; the other will offer oh.
ieefions. Thus, popular criticism
will be presented and answered.
