However, the odds appear

anything can and often does
happen on Capitol Hill.
DOWNGRADING PROTEC-
TION-Chairman Johnston of
the Senate Civil Service Com
mittee has introduced a bill to
give absolute protection TO Fed
eral classified employees against
salary cuts when their jobs are
downgraded as q result of re.
classification. The bill is iden-
tical to the House measure spon-
sored by Representative Lesin-
ski. Democrat Of Michigan,
Congress last year approved
the Lesinski-Johnston bill CIV
ing protection against salary cuts
to employees involved in reclassi-
fication downgradings. How
ever. the Controller General
subsequently ruled such protec-
ton can be given only II an EN-.
ploye's duties had not been ma
terially changed prior to the re-
classification.
The sponsors Of last years law
say 1t was the intent Of Congress
to provide protection against
salary cuts in all recIassifica-
lions. regardless Of whether the
jobs duties had been materially
changed. and have sponsored
legislation this year to make sure
that this intent Of Congress is
carried out.
INTERIOR The Interior
Department has announced a
curb on the filling Of job vacan.
cies unless absolutely necessary.
Acting Secretary Chilson in
structed all Interior offices not
to NIL vacancies unless secretarial
approval is given. The order does

The speaker said the Govern

successors.
Mr.. Kestnbaum said, the pre-
sent system does not provide
adequate recognition of the value
Of Federal careeriSts.
Mr.. Kestnbaum referred to
the pending White House order

Board as an encouraging sign

He warned, however, that
while this represents a good

that can't be solved by admin

all Federal agencies in carry

sential. he added.

REASONS WHY PARADISE DAM is A "MUST"

Admittedly, there is some weight to the ''sentl-
mentality argument which is so frequently raised
whenever project is proposed which, although of
great Importance to all the people, will mean the
moval Of few people from their homes. Whether
it be public project such Paradise, a smaller
private one like Noxon Rapids, it is public policy
that the few must give way to the many 1t is also pub
lie policy that the few must be adequately compen-
sated for the loss and inconvenience thrust upon them
by such developments
But, sentmentality is frequently used as smoke
screen Such is the to large degree in the oppo
sition carefully developed against Paradise dam.
Discounting this appeal to emotonalism and senti-
mentality, for what it is, what some of the more
important why Paradise dam should be built.

much greatly expanded tax base and much health

How either the Senator from Sanders county,
Glenn H. Larson the county commissioner repre-
senting the Little Bitter Root VaeyCamas Prairie
section of that county, I'll. E. Smith, logically
oppose the project escapes comprehension Senator
Larson we'll knows the benefits which accrue to
Sanders county from development of the areas
sources First, Cabinet Gorge, and the now-n-prog-
ress Noxon Rapids project (both private utility oper
atiOns) have brought tremendous payrolls to the
county. These low-head, high cost power dams,
like such public developments as Hungry Horse,
contribute to areas prosperity only during the
construction period Senator Larson knows should
know the continuing benefits accruing to Flathead
county because of Hungry Horse dam and the major
industrialjob-tax base opportunities cheap power
has brought to that neghboring county. With it only
question of time until most marketable timber
gone from Sanders county, that county, if it would
remain solvent, must provide new opportunities for
it's large labor force engaged in the timber in
dustry.
Commissioner Smiths opposition is equally diff
cult to fathom. Paradise DAM if it meant nothing else
to his district would mean the availability of large
supplemental irrigation water supply for the Little
Bitter Valley, and (by means of a siphon) make it
possible to take water to the thousands of good but
arid, acres of the Camas Prairie. Low cost power
would make such project feasible. To two large
valleys which have always struggled with the prob
lem of insufficient rain and or irrigation water sup
ply, Paradise dam holds out the opportunity for the
federal government to at long last fulfill its commit
ments to the homesteaders in 1910 and since, to
assist in making the agriculturally fruitful.
On a short-term basis during the four to five years
of construction, Paradise would also prove bonanza
to the town of Hot Springs in Smiths district. Hot
Springs overloaded with apartment houses and cab
ns has in recent years experienced much difficulty
in keeping rental Accommodations filled. The health
resort town located about 80 minutes driving dis
tance from the proposed dam site.

of them go to Washington Oregon where those
opportunities exist because of industry predicated

November Issues

CHESTER - The topic for the
program at the first meeting of
the Geauga League of Women
Voters held Sept. II at the CheS-
ter Community Church was,
Your ballot in November. -
Mrs. Willard Parker was mod
orator. The speakers included
B.A. Broughton, State RepreSen-
tative, Edwin Hofstetter, Coun-
ty Commissioner; Judge Robert
Ford; Judge Harold Richmond
and M. Humphreys, a member
of the County Planning Board.
Mr.. Broughton spoke on the
f our proposed amendments
which will appear on the No
vember ballots for the voters
decisions. Judge Ford, Mr.. Hof-
stettler and Mr.. Humphreys ex-
planned the new jail proposal;
Judge Richmond the new Judge
ship for the County.
Mr.. Broughton explained that
if the vote on County Home Rule
Charters passed, it would per-
NIT counties of 10000 popula-
ton or more to adopt home rule
charters for exclusive exercise
of municipal powers, l. by maj
ority vote in county; 2. majority
vote in largest city; and 8. ma
jority vote in areas outside the
largest municipality.
The County Home Rule am
endment would also permit
counties of less than SOC, 900 to
adopt home rule charters by ell
iminating hurdles now in the
present constitution.
Another porposed amendment
if passed would permit a person
to be appointed to an office in
Ohio who is not an elector in
Ohio. A third proposed amend
ment would remove the require
ment that a person live in the
state for a year before he may
vote for President and Vice
President. A fourth amendment
if passed, would exempt water
and sewage services from so
percent limitation on the sales
of municipal utility services out
side the corporate limits.
Judge Harold Richmond ex-
planned that the new municipal
Judge, who would take over the
duties of the 80 active Justices
of the Peace formerly having
jurisdiction over traffic cases
ETC., would be elected for a term
of one year. In the future the
term will be for four years.
The compensation would be ap-
proximately So 300 including mil
age. 1t would not be a full time
job and other work could be
practiced.

The other speakers stressed
the need of a new jail. They
presented facts brought forth
from a study of the issue. They
emphasized that this structure
should be near the County Seat
of Government. The suggested
plan is to purchase a new land
site of 10 acres near the County
Seat, for the location of a new
Jail. This would cost $425 900 for
building and land, an addition of
one half mills on the tax dupli-
cate. Architects are working on
the plans but there are no coun-
ty funds to push the project.
Chardon Chamber of Commerce
and others are contributing
funds, the League of Women
Voters and others are contribut-
ing time in which to give people
concrete information regarding
the issue.
It was brought out that the
present Jail will accommodate
from Is to 20 prisoners. Also
t h a t necessary repairs and
maintenance on the 90 year old
structure are costly. Judge Ford
emphasized the need of child
care facilities. To date a subsi.
dized home for children has not
been secured. Juvenile cases
must have an area separate
from adults. He also stressed
the necessity of having place
for the mentally i'll, both for
their own protection and the
community. Sometimes these ca
ses must wait a month or more
before they can enter a state
hospital
Preceding the program, A
Smorgasbord dinner was served
with over so partaking. This
was followed by a brief business
in charge of the new
president, Mr.. A. John Rose.
Mrs. Rose welcomed new mem
bers and guests. An Area Con-
ference was announced for Sep
tember 2z to be held at the Wo-
mems City Club in Cleveland.
