Announcing that the cost of living

are available-the government pre-
dicted that they would continue to

families had to pay $11.54 for goods

At the same time, the weekly take

To the Editor:
very much regret that Mr.. r.
Parkinson must stoop to charging me
with sadly neglected mathematical
education" and "stupendous misinfor-
nation.
He challenges me TO cite an instance
where the federal government has re-
possessed licensed power site at the
end Of the 50-year priod and paid the
net investment.
This challenge is u good example of
Mr. ParkInson's propaganda technique.
He knows full we'll that Congress
passed the Federal Power Act in 1921.
No 50-year license could expire until
1871. The Act, however, clearly states
the obligation by the federal govern
ment to pay net investment if a project
is repossessed at the end of the 50-year
license period. | have full faith in the
clear language of the Act and in addi-
ton | point out that the United States
Supreme Court in a long line of ie-
cisions has always guaranteed fair
compensation when private property is
put to public use.
Mr.. Park nson then throws in a bunch
Of statistics which he says are common
knowledge. Thus he says Hells Canyon
Dam viii store 2,S80,000 acre feet for
flood control and power benefits while
Brownlee will store 100000 acre feet
and other private utility low dams viii
more than make up the difference.
The true figures, of course, are COM
mon knowledge and are based on Off
cial documents. The disable storage at
HelIs Canyon Dam will be 3,S80,000
acre feet and at Brownlee 100000 acre
feet. The region loses 2,SS0,000 acre
feet of valuable upstream storage if
the Hells Canyon Dam is not built.
Generally overlooked in evaluating
the High Hel1s Canyon Dam are the
additional downstream power benefits
Of 391 900 XIV Of prime power at Clark |

the possibility of increasing the 900, |

Charleston, Asotin and Nez Perez dams
are not yet authorized but in my opin-
ion will someday be built.
The $3SS million figure for the cost
Of Hells Canyon Dam is another inven-
ton. The original Bureau of Reclama-
ton estimate was 1856, 5000 and this
was revised to $30S,472,000 in the Blu
reau's latest testimony but since that
time we have seen further construction
economies which indicate a current
cost for Hells Canyon Dam at slightly
under $500 million. ncerely.-NORTH-

Hells Canyon Dam

The oft repeated assertion that Hells
Canyon is the last and best dam site
in the Northwest is without the slight
est justification. On the contrary, just
the opposite is true. 1t does not have
a single virtue or superiority over any
other dam site on Snake River, and IS
in fact inferior in most respects to
any of them. For a 900 foot dam,
canyon depth of 1000 feet has no super
iority over % canyon depth of 900 feet.
From the standpoint of storage, as all
engineers experienced in dam design
know the capacity behind a dam of any
given height, varies directly as the
slope or fall of the stream bed or valley
floor. The flatter the slope the greater
the storage and vice versa, and of
course the cost per acre foot of storage
varies accordingly. The slope of the
stream bed is the most important fac
tor i'm the selection of n dam site where
storage is contemplated.
At most government dams, the cost
of storage runs approximately SIO.uV
per acre foot for every foot of slope per
mile above the dam, regardless or
height or length of dam. FIT. Peck, with
a Missouri River slope of less than Id
feet per mile, cost about $l25O per
acre foot for it's 100000 acre feet OF
live storage Hells Canyon Dam site VS.
situated on the steepest slope of Snake
River in nearly 900 miles, the slope
being about Is feet per mile. The est1-
mated cost of its miserly 2,90O,oOO acre
feet of live storage is $135 per acre
foot prohibitive amount. Compare
the Brownlee Dam site for instance
with Hells Canyon if both were bullt
to 600 feet height and generating the
same amount of power. BroWnlee i've
storage would be 100000 acre feet

Is the Armament Race
Pointless?

The armamen trace answers the pur-
pose of keeping the armament works
busy, giving employment to numerous
people, but mainly to create wealth for
the owners, at the taxpayers expense.
While there is no fear of a foreign
U. S. invasion, it is considered advisable
to create that impression in order to
keep the cold war near the boiling
point. 1t has a tendency to hide the
real issue of the day: Juvenile delin-
quency and alcohol consumption.
We have big problem, but it is not
an international one. We have slum
clearance to do right here at home; we
have the race segregation, ESQ far too
big for us to handle), besides a short
age of school rooms and teachers. This
is a serious question, and concerns us
more directly than who is to control
the United Nations. The Big Stick used
to be a handy weapon, but is getting
out of date now. We have spent millions
abroad in foreign aid, which evidently
did not strengthen our prestige at all,
for some reason or other.
We have a radar line across Canada
from east to west, spotting anything
coming by air from the north; U. s.
has % costly line of air bases all the
way from Thule, Greenland to Japan,
intended for either defensive or often
sve use as deterrent to foreign
aggression. Presumably they are in
tended to prevent Russia from crossing
the border, wherever that happens to
be.
Today the Russo-Chinese military
bloc is the worlds strongest, from %
point of view, but shows no
sign of expansion, unless it would be
in the island of Formosa, which Red
China claims a title to. Regardless of
all the war clouds, World War III is |
but a remote possibility.

Germany and feeding the hungry peo-
pie of Europe; today our attention has

the plans for constructing 100 and

President Eisenhower's bill for his

stay at Walter Reed hospital amounts
to mere $23.10, it was reported last
week. Newsmen estimated a private

stem and fluorspar industries will
fold up.
More than 200 persons are en-
ployed by Minerals Engineering Com
pany, the tungsten operation at Dill
Ion. Payroll in the state last year by
this industry amounted to $648,000.
The company paid $638,000 in taxes
last year, 100000 of them to the
state and Beaverhead county, accord
ing to testimony by one of it's Off
GERS before the Senate Interior Com
mittee.
Roberts and Cummings, Fluorspar,
at Hamilton, employs from 80 to so
men, at wages from $4,000 to $4,000
year, and paid $4,000 in county
taxes last year. Passage of the bill
and appropriation may result in con-
struction of additional milling facili-
ties near Darby.
Last year President Eisenhower
vetoed similar but more compre-
hensive bill after adjournment, but
the administration seems inclined to
go along with the present bill. Senator
Murray and other supporters of the
bill contend that its passage is vital
to the continued operation of numer-
our small mines and the defense
needs of the country.
