Stevenson Put Back in Business

publicans can say the Presi-
dents admirers had no reason
to go to the polls. Kefauver
can say he was not on the
ticket, his write-in campaign
was belated and those Cook
County underworld characters
built up Stevenson'S vote.
Even SO, if a gland vote"
exists, it goes to the primaries.
This is their Importance. Pri-
maries do not prove who will
win a nomination or election
they do show if the voter is
either mad at or glad about
some candidate or issue.
There is another aspect of
the Chicago returns that is
important nationally to Demo-
Gratis.
A widespread suspicion ex-
lists among them that they
are losing the Negro vote since
the Supreme Court in the
person Of the Eisenhower
appointed Chief Justice, Earl
Warren. handed down the
antisegregation decision. Ne
gro OBJECTIONS should certain
~ show in Chicago with its
spreading black belt. Negroes
are leaving the South in in
creaSing numbers and Chicago,
which has long had a big Ne
gro population. is one OF their
meccas.
What happened in Chicago's
Negro wards this week will be
the object Of careful scrutiny,
but the final returns do not in
dictate that kind of detection
which would plunge the Demo-
cratic Party nationally into
deep gloom.

whole thing" That's why con-
servationists have so bitterly
attacked the administration
policy.
In letter or spirit the prin-
ciple now espoused by the
President has been violated in
numerous instances. Perhaps
the most graphic illustration
is in the case of another great
river system like the Colorado
the Columbia, which spans
our Pacific Northwest. Both
Bonneville and Grand Coulee
dams are on it. When built in
the Franklin d. Roosevelt adj
ministration they were envis-
aged as part Of a series To
develop the Columbia system
from top to bottom A grand
plan for unified and inteerated
development Of the Columbia
Basin was completed by the
Army Engineer Corps in 1850
after Bonneville and Grand
COulee were built.
But the Eisenhower admin
istration has strapped this in
the so-called partnership Of
Federal Government with pri-
vate utilities proclaimed by
President Eisenhower in his
1852 campaign speech at
Seattle and faithfully exc
cuted by Secretary of Interior
Douglas Mckay.
This violation of treating
river valleys as a whole thing"
began at Hells Canyon on the
Snake River, a Columbia trib-
utary, along the Oregon Idaho
border. The Army Engineers
had recommended a high dam
there to be built by the Fed
eral Government to utilize the
fun potential of the river and
fit Hell's Canyon most effec-
lively into the Columbia River
plan, But Secretary Mckay
stopped this He withdrew an
application for a license for
Federal development submitted
by the Interior Department
In the Truman administration
to the Federal Power Com
mission TO carry out the Army
Engineer plan. That opened
the way for n private power
company Idaho Power, to put
in It's bid to build. instead,
three small dams. which sub
sequcntly was granted by the
FPC. This would mean piece
meal development that would
throw the whole Army Engi-
neer plan askew.

Idaho Power Company or by
Congress acting on bills which
have been bottled up.
Thus far the utilities have
been successful in fighting the
public development OF the Co.
lumbia as projected by the
Army Engineers and are max
ing mockery out of the Ell
senhower theory of treating
river valleys as a whole thing"
In the case of the Upper
Colorado. the utilities were not
interested, as this is not to be
utilized for power on the same
scope and does not offer the
rich profits Of the Columbia.
and SO they we're content to
let the Government develop it.

present democratic republic.

Improvements and the govern
ment had to comply. 1t eX-
pected that as the lot of the
common man improved pro-
duction would increase, too,
and the country could meet
its obligations. Figures given
this reporter by the American
representative of the Moline
tractor company show that in
1850 there were only 1000
tractors in Turkey. Today
there are 10000.

expecting to meet them with
proceeds of exports. Unfortu-
nately, 1854 and 1855 were
both very bad crop years. Not
only were the Turks unable to
export grain and fruits, but
they had to import wheat.
Despite the crisis the Turk
ish government did not follow
American advice and restrict
its vast industrial program.
1t claimed that factories which
had been started would be
lost or badly damaged if they
were not completed.
One Of the principal reasons
why Turkey embarked on am
bilious industrial development
was that Washington had
warned American foreign aid
could not last indefinitely. We
said that because of her
geographical position with the
USSR on one side and Bull
garia on the other she had
better make herself as self
sufficient as possible.
Thus the over-optimistic
Turkish government, moved by
the desire to raise the standard
of living of the masses and
needing the American advice
to be prepared for all even
Qualities, got itself in the
present financial spot which
threatens the stability of the
principal defender of the
Middle East.

Both Parties Brought Out Almost Same
Percentage of Their 81 Election Vote

1852 election stayed away from
the polls at the primary this
week in Illinois. Also 81 per
cent of the Democrats who
voted in the 1852 election did
not go to the polls in the 1856
primary.
One explanation for the
larger Republican vote in the
1852 primary was that a con-
test between Taft. Stassen and
Eisenhower was going on at
that time, whereas Kefauver
was the only candidate whose
name was on the Democratic
ballot in 1852 and there was
no contest.
To add up all the Republi-
can votes in a presidential
primary and measure them
against the total Democratic
votes is to mislead the public.
The idea that there is some
sort of a popularity" poll in
volved is absurd.
All that a primary election
does is to bring out the prefer
ence of the voters as between
candidates in their own party.
When there is no contest. OBJ
viously the vote usually drops
off IN the party which has no
real rivalry of candidates to
arouse the people,
Primaries thus far this year
have been largely a waste of
time and money and tend to
prove that presidential prefer
ence primaries, as at present
constituted, are only publicity
stunts. About all that the New
Hampshire, Illinois, Minnesota
and Wisconsin primaries show
is that Eisenhower is the lead
ing candidate from the stand
point Of the Republicans who
took the trouble to 60 to the
polls, while in some States Ste

He brushed aside a suggestion

the news dispatches on the
Illinois primary have been con-
fusing to the public. An at
tempt has been made to COM
pare the total vote for Eisen-
hover with the total vote for
Stevenson as if there really
was a popularity contest be-
tween the two. The facts
about Illinois laws, however,
indicate otherwise-there was
no chance to choose as be-
tween Eisenhower and Steven
son at all.
For only persons who voted
Republican previously could
vote in the Illinois Republican
presidential primary. and the
same was true of Democrats.
What is significant is that
the two parties brought out
almost exactly the same per-
centage OF their 1852 election
vote.
Thus, Just about third
of the Republicans voted in
the 1856 primary and a little
more than a third of the Dem
ocratS went to the polls in
Illinois. Obviously, since the
Republicans carried the State
in 1852. their total was again
bigger than that of the Dem
ocratS.
The important point is
that, while the Republicans in
the 1852 primary brought out
$50 per cent of their vote
that year. the Republican per-
centage in the 1856 primary
dropped down to 1876 per cent.
Likewise, the Democrats in the
1852 primary polled 44.5 per
cent of their 1852 election vote
and dropped to SO per cent in
the 1856 primaries.
Another way of stating it is
that STA per cent Of the Re-
publicans who voted in the

Eisenhower OK of Colorado River Bill
Viewed as Running Counter to Policy

It's easy to understand how
our people can be fooled
about what goes on here.
Often there's a difference IN
what is said about policy and
what is actually done.
An example is what Presi-
dent Eisenhower said at Au-
gusta, Ga, when he signed into
law the bill recently passed by
Congress for the mammoth
Upper Colorado River storage
project TO be developed by the
Federal Government.
This. he said, represents
something l believe in" 1t fol-
lows his idea. he explained, Of
treating river valleys as a
whole thing-it goes from top
TO bottom-it recognizes that
one thing is certainly true
water is getting to be one of
our most valuable resources. 4"
Such an aim first was ex-
pressed half a century ago by
President Theodore Roosevelt.
He told Congress in his first
message Of the need for great
storage works to equalize the
flow of streams which, he said.
were too big to be undertaken
by private interests, as is the
case with the Colorado River
project. In later message to
Congress, Theodore Roosevelt
advocated integrated public
development of our river sys-
TENS for navigation, flood con-
troll, reclamation and produc-
ton Of electric power.
1t was not until many years
later that his vision began to
come true in great public
projects--Boulder Canyon Dam
in Nevada during the Hoover
administration, later renamed
Hoover Dam, and, in the
Roosevelt and Truman admin
iStrations. a whole bevy of
giant projects--T'VA in the
South. Bonneville in OREGON,
Grand Coulee in Washington,
Shasta in California, Hungry
Horse in Montana and SO on.
But, If President Eisenhower
believes in treating river val
leys as a whole thing" he
either has not told the respon-
sible officials in his admins
tration or they have not fol-
lowed his instructions. For.
until the Upper Colorado. in
which special factors are in
volved the administrations
policy had been contrary to
treating river valleys as a

toward Turkeys military, ma
val and air forces, but she still
must devote a large share of
her budget toward mainte-
nance of these forces.
The Turkish army is COM
posed OF 20 divisions of which
about half are completely mod
ernized with American weap-
onS. We provide the planes,
tanks, half-tracks. ETC., under
the military assistance pro-
gram. But the Turkish govern
ment must provide the gas
oline and oil to keep them
going. These must be pur-
chased abroad with foreign
exchange which has now be-
come a rare commodity in this
country.
The upkeep of the 650,O00-
man Turkish forces is not par
ticularly costly when we con-
slider that the Turkish private
gets only IS kurush tabout 3
cents month. When on for
eign duty. such as in Korea, he
receives SO cents a month with
a portion going for family al
lotment. His food is in line
with the traditional frugal
habits OF Turkish peasantry
olives, beans, black bread,
and mutton once a day. All
the same, the supporting cost
Of the army alone takes better
than Is per cent of the budget.
The Turkish government is
badly in the hole, not so much
because of the high cost of its
large military establishment as
because it has striven to be-
come industrially self-support-
ing beyond its immediate
means. Since 1913 it has re-
ceived in actual economic
assistance from America some
S475 million and has COM
mitted itself in industrial de-
velopments for nearly $500
million.
The Turks took seriously our
advice that the best way to
fight internal communism was
to improve the living standards
of the people.
With the creation of the
two-party system in 1850 the
population began to realize
