two years. Connole was an attorne.
for Connecticut's public utilities com
mission before joining FPPC.
The day after Congress ad-
journed, these men announced their
own decision-made eight days be-
fore. They did not approve high
dam. Nor did they accept Costello's
recommended ton. Instead, they APP
proved all three Idaho Power Com
pany dams, despite Costello's state
ment that the two smallest dams
would only add "fancy-priced pow
err" that the company's present
customers must subsidize through
higher rates if the power is to be
sold at all.
IGNORED EXAMINERS
FINDINGS
In reaching this decision, FPC made
no new findings of its own about
power potential or power costs. Nor
did it upset any of Costello's findings.
Instead, it ignored them.
F'PC relied on two arguments. 1t
said the three dams would be built
eat no cost to the United States" Yet
Costello had shown that the high
dam would pay out on 2.75-mill pow
er, thus also costing the u. S. treasury
Its $685. million outlay
would be self-liquidating invest
ment.
FPC also argues that Idaho Pow
er's plan "would permit reasonably
prompt development" FPC said the

Thus, in measured Language, WI
liam j. Costello, the Federal Powt
Commissions own hearing examine
weighed the facts presented him
II months of formal hearings. An
that has simmered and cooled an
there the HeIls Canyon controvers
boiled for five years should hav
ended.
Costello had found that high
dam in Hells Canyon, built by the
federal government, would add
$4,000 kilowatts of prime power,
cost 1888, $4,000, and produce
electricity at IT'S mills kilowatt
hour. He had found that the three
Idaho Power Company dams in
Hells Canyon would add only $685.
600 kilowatts of prime power, cost
$191, $4,000, and provide cleo
tricity at 6.69 mills a kilowatt hour.
But the controversy did not end
there. For though the high dam is "the
better investment and the more nearly
ideal development" Costello did a
curious thing. He urged FPC to APP
prove one of Idaho Power Company's
three dams.
Explaining his action, Costello said
simply that Congress won't vote funds
for a high dam. "The likelihood is so
remote as to make recommendation
to the Congress that such dam be
a completely useless ac-
ton. Such action could not be ex-
pected to produce more results than
any of the bills that have been intro
duced and sponsored in the past. (It)
would serve only to freeze the Middle
Snake River for hydroelectric devel-
opment."
HAD INTUITION?
How could Costello know this? This
would be FPC's first decision in the
natter. How could Costello know that
Congress, backed by firm FPC
iecision in favor of the high dam,
would turn it down?
Perhaps to cushion this irregular
md quite gratuitous opinion, Cos
clio invited Congress to accept his
findings and reject his own decision.

mission has not performed its func-
ion in the public interest, the COM

One Washington "dope sheet"
suggested that Costello made his
findings TO satisfy himself, but that
he made his decision TO satisfy his
bosses.
His bosses are the five FPC COM
lissioners-Je K. KuykendaH,

trast and base your exposure
on the light from the sky
rather than take a reading on
the subject.
Fast or Slow Shutter
@. Which is better, Q fast
shutter speed and q wide lens
opening or a slower speed
combined with a small aper-
ture?
A. This depends upon the
nature Of the picture you will
be attempting to make. If ac-
tions is to be stopped. nat
urally the faster shutter speed
must be used. But if depth of
field is important as, say, in
landscape photography 1t un-
doubtedly would be more effec-
tive to stop down the lens and
use a comparatively slow shut
ter speed. A glance at your
exposure meter will quickly
show you that any of a number
of combinations may be se-
lected in most lighting situa-
tions.
Home Movies
@. I would like to get start
ed in taking home movies of
my children. Should pur-
chase 16-mm. or 8-mm. equip
ment?
A. If your interests lie ex-
clusively with films of the
children. vacation, movies and
the like, our advice, in general
would be to buy an 8-mm. OUT
fit. The larger equipment is
much more costly both initially
and to maintain and the film is
more expensive. 1t used to be
that special effects could only
be made with the 16-mm. jobs
but nowadays the IS are ade-
Quate for most purposes.
Editing Films
@. Can a movie be edited
entirely in the camera?
A. This is possible but al.
most any movie can be i'm.
proved after filming by trim
ming here and there, elimi-
mating a scene or two, or by
adding one or more scenes
taken at a later date, or by
rearranging the sequence Of
certain scenes. Even with the
greatest preparation and care
to follow the script closely it
will be found that some scenes
would be better if cut to some
extent; others are apt to be
undesirable for technical or
other reasons. Editing in the
camera will almost always
help the final editing task but
is by no means the final an
swer. It's much better to have
an editing outfit as part Of
your home movie setup.

The foreign printing presses,

featured in London, England,

ties.
OF course. both presses may

A reason for this security"
restriction is that the foreign
machines must equal in pro-
duction quality, price and
conditions Of operation their
American rivals. Five Cottrell
presses, manufactured in the
United States, already are on
order for bureau installation.
The Giori and De la Rue ma
chimes must excel them in pro-
f1ciency, If they are to be
approved for final bureau
purchase. Up to now they are
here as samples "for inspec-
tion only"
The De la Rue press has been
furnished a 32-subject dollar
certificate plate, shallow en-
graved, for experimental use.
This has been run only in one
color, and all wastage Is being
