Iroo Shows the Woy

One of the most impressive "do It
yourself" programs in the field of con-
Servation and natural resources develop
ment took long step forward in Iraq
this week. 1t was the dedication of twin
t1ood-control dams and their supplement
tary works on the Tigris and Euphrates
Rivers, initial projects in five-year plan
for self-development of that centrally
located Arab country. In the valley Of
these two rivers, often identified as the
cradle of the human race and site of the
Biblical Garden of Eden, flood damage
has cost hundreds of millions of dollars
annually. It was to avert this threat that
first priority was given to the river con-
trolls. But even more positive returns
are expected from irrigation projects cal
culated to increase agricultural produc-
ton, and from power development that
is scheduled for utilization in establish
ment of industry. In the center of a rich
oil-bearing region, abundantly supplied
with natural gas for fuel, Sizeable and
profitable petro-chemical industry is
foreseen. Many collateral benef1ts-im-
provementS in transport, housing, edu-
cation and health facilities, for example
are reasonably assured.
1t is the Iraqi governments own ap-
proach to this long-range planning that
is perhaps most notable in an area where
opportunities and needs are great but
accomplishments have been relatively
slight. Largely on the basis of engineer
ing recommendations made by the Inter-
national Bank for Reconstruction and
Development, an Iraqi government board
has been supervising the nationwide pro-
gram. No foreign loans or subsidies are
required. Instead, Iraqi law provides
that 70 per cent of all oil royalties during
this period must be devoted to the i'm
provement program rather than to the
annual operating budget of the govern
ment. Expenditures Of more than 81
billion are scheduled for the five-year
plan.
The Middle East is deeply split today
as Iraq and Egypt contest for Arab lead
ership. Both are aware that internal
development is essential to their own
strength. Egypt has plans for further
development of the Nile Valley through
construction of the projected dam and
reservoirs at Aswan. Iraq, starting
sooner on her own improvement program.
is providing an Illustration to her neigh
bors and to underdeveloped countries
elsewhere in the world of the benefits
OF this type of planning. Both economi-
caIiy ana politically, the promise is great.

LETTERS TO THE STAR

here's another one coming up.
On the other hand, the rail-
roads ask permission to lower
freight rates from time to time
to meet competitive condi-
tions.
Just recently, in a CONVEX
sation with certain railroad
officials, at which time a
United States Senator was
present, a railroad official re-
marked he couldn't understand
how the I.C.C. ever secured
figures that would show an
operating loss by the railroads
i'll a given year of over $500
million in passenger car Serv-
ice. This railroad official said it
didn't make sense-that the
railroad he was connected with
showed a net operating profit
in any given year of at least
3 to 4 per cent on passenger
service.
/ think it's about time COM
mittees in Congress entrusted

state Commerce Commission.

approach problems on both sides of the
river. And if, as has been proposed in
the past, tunnel were to be limited to
four lanes, it would tend to become a
bottleneck for ruSh-hour traffic, rather
than a traffic expediter. The bridge
would have six lanes.
The many Ifs" involved in the tunnel
project have been apparent from the be-
ginning. The present revival of the idea
can be justified only on the basis of sat-
iSfactory answer to the 'if" questions. In
other words, the tunnel is worth serious
consideration at this late date only (1) if
no added expense to the District would
be involved, (2) if the tunnels capacity
is adequate to it's traff1c-relief task and
(3) if engineering problems can be worked
out readily. To which should be added
fourth proviso that, assuming the meet
Ing of the aforementioned conditions,
there should be no undue delay in obtain
ing congressional approval and starting
work on the project. The central-area
crossing plan has been delayed unreaSon-
ably, as it Is.

Wisconsin Story

Senator Kefauver's relatively good
showing in the rural areas of upstate
Wisconsin is indicative of some disaffec-
ton among the farmers. But it takes a
massive amount of wiShful thinking to
conclude from the primary results that
the President is in any danger of losing
the State in November.
With nearly all precincts in, Senator
Kefauver had polled AZ per cent of the
vote, the President SIS per cent and
Republican favorite son had per cent.
This is a good showing, percentagewiSe.
for the Tennessee Senator. Actually,
however, his total vote was only about
,000-which falls far short of reflect
Ing farm revolt against the admins
tration.
There is one additional point worth
keeping in mind Only about third of
the eligible Wisconsin voters turned out
for this primary. The total primary vote
was a little better than 40 per cent of
the combined Eisenhower Stevenson vote
in 1852. This means that a substantial
majority of the Wisconsin voters were
not sufficiently stirred by any issue to
go to the polls yesterday. Yet Senator
Kefauver says the results reveal great
unrest among the farmers" and show that
he can carry the farm belt" How does
he get that way?

Good Trial Run

President Eisenhower chose an APP
propriate forum-the 18th annual con-
ference of the Advertising Councillor
his first post-illneSs test of his impromptu
speaking talents. And from all accounts
1t was a successful experiment.
With other things, the President
urged the Importance of promoting "bet-
ter understanding" Of America and its
aimS-something that is right down the
councils alley For this nonpartisan
group, backed by industry, advertising
firms and communications media, was
formed for the purpose of promoting
campaigns deemed to be in the public
and national interest
This year the council is planning to
put major emphasis on "register-and-
vote" campaign. This is thoroughly
constructive project, deserving Of the
success which has attended previous
ventures.

Hardy Perennial

That hardy perennial the Potomac
River tunnel proposal, has Sprouted up
again-to the understandable conSterna-
ton of the District Highway Department.
It keeps on coming to life every time the
department is all set to proceed with the
building of a central-area bridge. This
time the tunnel has assumed more at
tractive appearance, however, designed to
win more friends and influence more peo-
pie than it has been able to do in the past.
One of the main objections to a
tunnel, as far as District officials are
concerned has been the substantially in
creased cost over bridge, with the added
cost presumably to be borne by the Dis
trict Now, however the Interior Depart
ment, which has been nurturing the
tunnel plan from the beginning, is Sug-
costing that the Federal Government pay
the entire cost of tunnel. That would
appeal to city authorities at this critical

would appeal to the Federal Budget Blu
