Fred g. Aandahl. Assistant
Secretary Of the Interior for Wa
ter and Power. said today the
threat of Federal monopolies has
discouraged local responsibility
for power development In the
Tennessee River basin and the
Pacific Northwest.
Mr.. Aandahl reviewed interior
Department power policies in a
statement prepared for a House
Subcommittee on Government
Operations which has held three
months Of hearings across the
Nation to receive testimony criti-
cal Of departmental actions. Mr.
Aandahl's personal appearance
on he stand was delayed.
The inquiry by a subcommittee
on public works and resources
headed by Representative Chu-
doff. Democrat of Pennsylvania,
has provided a sort of preview
Of the hot public-versus-pr
power dispute shaping up for
the 1856 election campaign.
It has erupted into public
wrangling and split the commit
tee along party lines.
Stands on Mckay Policy
Mr.. Aandahl stood on the
power policy stated by Secretary
Mckay August 10. 1883:
1T is recognized that the pri-
mary responsibility of supplying
power needs Of an area rests
with the people locally. The re-
sponsibility Of the Department
Of the Interior is to give leader
ship and assistance IN the con-
servation and wise utilization Of
natural resources"
The Assistant Secretary said
that after announcement Of that
policy and the partnership ap-
proach it was significant to OBJ
serve the resumption Of local re-
sponsibility and fast responsive
action Of local interests. both
public and private. in the Pa
cific Northwest"
He reviewed the controversial
lease-option : to purchase con-
tracts which the Southwestern
Power Administration has made
with generating and transmits
sion co-operatives.
Reserve for Co-operatives
Mr.. Aandahl said 10000 kilo-
watts Of Federal hydroelectric
capacity are being reserved for
the generating and transmission
co-operatives and that he has
felt reluctant to release any un-
til the negotiations are further
advanced. ,
One Of the key points Of in
quiry has been revision Of Fed
eral regulations which required
the transmission Of publicly gen.
Grated power by private utilities
over their own power lines II the

|munistic infiltration Of Govern
|ment without jeopardizing the
basic rights Of Federal employees
Various Democratic members
|of Congress and Federal employe
leaders. as well as segmeflts Of
the press. have criticized the
administration for making q
numbers game" out Of report
ling the number Of employees fired
las security risks. Also the pro-
gram has been sharply criticized
for failing to give. adequate safe
guards TO employees accused un-
der the program and for making
|unsuitahility firings under the
|guise Of security risks"
Referring to some Of this crit
icisn. MFR. Moore declared:
I'm recent months we have
heard much discussion by SELF
styled experts and false prophets
who have criticized President
|Eisenhower's security order.
Some OF these persons seem to
have forgotten recent history
which portrayed the activities Of
certain traitors and disloyal per-
sons who remained on the Fed
leral payroll for sufncient time
Ito do our Nation irreparable
HARM. Moreover. these demo-
Igogues fail to tell you that, un-
der the Presidents Security Or
der. none Of these cases has
occurred and our Nations civil
service was never more secure
against subyersiye infiltration.
This has been accomplished un-
der q program Of moderation in
which We have preserved the
letter and spirit Of the Bill Of
Rights. "
Referring to recent studies
and investigations Of the security
program and civil service that
have been authorized by Con-
Igress this year. Mr.. Moore said
these probes possibly will do
some good II they do not be-
come confused In political con-
|troversy."
This security program. like
any other Government program,
depends to q large extent upon
the judgment of human beings, "
MFR. Moore said. 1T should be
improved when It Is demon
|strated that improvements can
be made. Those Government Of
ficials who deal with this mat
ter are constantly examining the
merits OF proposals for changes.
Such changes are adopted when
they do not jeopardize the Sc
curity Of our Nation"
