"Pious But Power-Less"

''This Administration has been
pious but power-less," the senator
stated. "For instance, it has tried to
twist and turn in every conceivable
fashion to avoid building John Day
Dam as a federal project, despite it's
authorization in 1850 and the crying
need for it's power. All this has been
done in the name of protecting pri-
vate enterprise. The trouble is that
this Administration doesn't seem to
know the difference between the toll
gate keeper and the vehicles of in
dustry and commerce."
"The hypocrisy of this Admins
tration's program staggers the
imagination" Morse commented.

been able to believe it. But the

ter, the supply of interruptible power
to industry had to be cut off for ex.
tended periods because of low water
conditions on the Columbia River. But
perhaps of even greater Importance
is the fact that there has been only
one new federal hydroelectric prof.
ect authorized in the Pacific North
west since 1851.
Unless dams are constructed TO
store the waters of the Columbia
and to provide the low-cost energy
base that is essential for the econ
omy of that area, industries will
look elsewhere. The need for low
cost power is just as urgent in other
parts of the west.
In meeting the unquestioned need
for low-cost power in the West we
must consider all possible approaches.
1t seems to me, however, that some
avenues are SO immensely superior to
others that we must pursue them re-
gardless of differences of opinion
over pubic and private power.
First, we must make the fullest
possible use of our hydroelectric re-
sources.
The Federal Power Commission re-
ported in 1858 that 44ao of the coun-
try's developed hydroelectric power is
on the streams west of the Continent
al Divide. These streams are in the
North Pacific, South Pacific, Colo
RADIO River, and Great Basin drain
ages. Aggregate installed capacity in
,hese four drainages was 9,5O5,739
zilowattS in 1853.
FPC estimated that $40 of the
lation's undeveloped hydro power is
n these same river basins. An aggre-
rate installed capacity of 47,524,4 400
,ilowatts at 907 sites could be de-
-eloped in the West, FPC said.
Our first step, then, is to develop
very one of these kilowatts which
meets the test of low-cost power.

WASTEFUL, PARTIAL
DEVELOPMENT RULED OUT

This approach rules out wasteful,
partial development of the great mul-
tipurpose sites, as proposed at Hells
Canyon on the Snake River. If we
compromise at Hells Canyon, we will
lose forever as much power as we
obtain from construction of Bonne-
vile Dam-about 444,0O0 kilowatts
of prime power which would be made
available to the Columbia River Sys-
tenn by single Hells Canyon Dam,
over and above the amount which
would be produced by the low dams
of Idaho Power Company. Moreover,
we lose almost 100000 acre feet
of badly needed flood storage ca
pacity.
We cannot afford this kind of waste
in any plan for the development of
the West.
With or without steam power,
with or without atomic power, the
water of the West must be used
to the fullest possible extent.
Secondly, we must look to the prob
lens which will confront us when wise
conservation policies have brought to
completion the full development of
the Vests hydroelectric potential.
Even this vast addition to our power
supply will not be enough, if our
economy continues to expand, as it
must. Studies show that the best de-
veloped power system in the West
should be based on combination of
both steam and hydro power.
Sources of steam energy are many;
two are particularly attractive at the
present time. First, the coal de-

Radin Stresses E Ever-Increasinq
Demand For Electric Enerov

Remarks by ALEX RADIN, general
manager, American Public Power AS
sociation, Washington, d. c., at West
ern States Water and Power Confer
ence, New Union Building, University
of Utah, Salt Lake City, May 10,
1857.
AS has been the case since it's in
ception, the electric industry today
is in race-a race to provide enough
power to meet Americas ever-grow-
ing needs for electric energy.
In the West, the stakes in this race
are perhaps higher than they are else
where in the U. S., for here you have
not only the greatest potential of low
cost hydro power, but also the great
est need for utilizing the water re-
sources to their best advantage. You
cannot afford to waste your water
or under-develop your water re-
sources.
Behind the astonishing growth in
demand for electric power lie the two
major factors of population growth
and increased usage of electricity.
5000 INCREASE IN 25 YEARS
1t is estimated by several authori-
ties that there will be 20O,0OO,OOO
people in the United States by 1875,
and that over 70,000,00O of them
will live west of the Mississippi River.
In 1875, many of these people will
live in homes and on farms which
use 10000 kilowatt hours of electric
energy annually, while last year the
average annual residential use of
electricity was somewhat less than
5000 kilowatt hours. The Bureau of
Reclamation has estimated that cleo
trio usage in the West for all pur-
poses, including industrial, will in
crease from 1O6 billion kilowatt hours
in 1850 to $50 billion kilowatt hours
in 1975-an increase of more than
5000 in this 25 year period.
However, word of caution is set
forth by Palmer Putnam, in his book,
Energy in the Future. Mr.. Putnam
predicts that our population will top
by 1875 and that per
capita demand for the output of en-
ergy will increase at a rate of at
least go per year. However, he adds {
that, ''if energy costs rise significant
ly, then the growth patterns of the {
economy, here and elsewhere, will '
doubtless be arrested" {
Thus, our job is to fulfill the grow {
ing demand for power, but at a cost t
that will stimulate further demand {
and keep our economy expanding. V
Failure to recognize the Importance c
of the cost factor in power supply can v
retard industrial growth, particularly c
in the West, where industry in some 2
areas is still in the relatively early
stages of development, particularly il
by comparison with the potential. t
When the supply of low-cost power
dries up, the effect upon industry can
De Immediately apparent. We can use
The states in the Pacific Northwest
as examples. Much of the new indus

power use category. Ample supplies c

ROOM FOR BOTH

There is room for both private and
public power in the development of
the West and | regret that govern
ment leadership in the power field
so often is attacked as Socialism"
creeping or otherwise.
1t is well to bear in mind that
the federal government essentially
is a wholesaler of power and thus
is not in direct competition with
private power companies. AS mat
ter of fact, a substantial portion of
the available federal power is de-
livered and sold to consumers by
private utilities, as we'll as by muni-
cipally owned systems, public util-
ity districts and rural electric CO.
operatives.
If we are to supply the power which
the West will need, under conditions
which will encourage the expansion of
industry in this area, all segments of
the electric industry must put forth
a maximum effort. There is a place
and a need for power to be produced
by private as we'll as publicly and CO.
operatively owned utilities. But be-
yond all, the power produced by the
electric utilities-public or private
must meet these two tests: (1) 1t
must be the maximum that can be
produced from God-given natural
resource, and (2) it must be low
cost power. Moreover, it must be
available at low cost to the munich
pally owned utilities and to the rural
electric co operatives, for only
through these non-profit utilities can
we have the yardstick, or the COM
petitive leverage that is so vitality
needed in the electric industry.
Producing the needed abundance
of low-cost power is the real chal-
lenge of the West-and the chal-
lenge facing this conference.

posits of the West, such as those in
eastern Utah, Wyoming, Colorado
and New Mexico; and the tremen-
dous unexploited Ignite deposits of
North and South Dakota and eastern
Montana. Secondly, and perhaps of
greater long-range significance, is
the promise of power from uranium.
Atomic power certainly must be in
cluded in any planning for a steam
hydro power system in the West;
however, we will need all of our pow
er sources, including atomic power,
to fill projected needs. Atomic power,
therefore, assumes the status of a
source of steam power in addition to
conventional sources rather than that
