The Paradise Dam Proposal
Build For the Future As Well As Today
By Editor MILES ROMNEY, In Western News,

| 1t is hazardous to ponder the motives of men, In
fairness everybody has right to personal viewpoint
upon any subject and nobody should entertain any
of restricting such privilege. History has demon
starated that in the long those who restrict the
views of others, often suffer the same fate them
selves
But while must not of necessity consider oppos-
ing views to be evil simply because they fail
ncide with our own, it is proper to estimate the op
posing viewpoint and if it is found to be faulty to
endeavor to demolish it.
That is something of the situation which has been
going in Western Montana with respect to whether
it is wise unwse to build the Paradise Dam. great
quantity of propaganda has been served to the public
upon this matter most of it emanatng from the Mon
tana Power Co., its friends and satellites
1t is not strange that the Montana Power Co. and
its stoopigeon fringe should oppose construction of
publicy-owned dam upon publicly-owned river, de-
signed to harness publicly water power for the
public good The Montana Power Co. and its stooges
forever want the public domain and its natural re-
sources including the water far-seeing Providence
placed in the rivers for all of u.s. be subject only
exploitation by specially favored persons corpora
tions at the expense of the general public The Mon
tana Power Co. and it's aes-both within and without
the power business-want high which bring high
profits to the owners of the private power trust.
Public power which provides low rates and ult-
matey pays itself off completely is viewed with hor-
by the private power operations which cannot
pete with cheap power produced by publicly owned
power installations. Anyone who speaks to the
trary lies in his teeth
The power trust apologsts who claim that taxes
interfere with the ability of private power to compete
equal rate footing with public power know far bet
ter ineffably stupid They ignore the fact that
public power does taxes, does through low rates
bring industry into regions which multiply the col
ectons of the school, city, state county and nation.

| mately under the CLOAK OF security
When Snyder appears before the
committee in November, he will be
hard put to justify his reticence.
NOT ACADEMIC
The case is not academic. The sub
committee, by poking around in the
dark corners of bureaucracy, has
come up with some astounding prac-
tices-practices designed to keep en-
barrassing information from public
view. 1t has found brass hats who
conceal data on the simple premise
that the less the people are told the
better, even where there is nothing
embarrassing to hide.
For job of such massive proper
tions, the subcommittee is i'll
equipped. It's annual appropriation
consists of only $4,000. Its total
staff consists of five people, includ-
ing stenographers. But its accom-
plishments belle its size.
One reason for its success is that
by exposing the policies of an agency
like Defense, it sets off public ridi-
cule. Americans love to laugh at
stuffed shirts. The subcommittee has
supplied them with countless targets.
AS result it has already forced
Snyder's departmnt to retreat on
occasions. Thus the mighty
Pentagon shamefacedly revised a
verbal classification of weather
broadcast which was available through
an unclassified telephone number.
After gentle nudging by the subcom-
mittee it finally released information
about concessionaires' rented space
at the Pentagon. Contracts for such
space had previously not been made
public.
1t took generous servings of ridi-
cule to do the job, but the Depart
ment, again at the prodding of the
subcommittee declassified roomful
of World War II documents at Har-
ward University's Widener Library.
OTHER AGENCIES
Then the Department reversed an
earlier order banning newsmen from
the launching of the first earth satel-
lite.
Nor has the Defense Department
been the only nest of bureaucracy to
withdraw stratgically before the ad-
vance of the subcommittee. The De-
partment of Agriculture was forced
20 cancel a regulation which permitted
it to censor television films prepared
with its cooperation. The Treasury
issued new order per- |
hitting disclosure of statistical data |
on exports from U. S. ports. This in
formation had been buried under a /
classified" stamp ever since World |
War II.
The General Services Administra-
ion was forced to change regula-
ion which had been used to prevent |
photographers from taking pictures
y the corridor of the federal building |
n Denver.
This tiny subcommittee, stated |
argely by ex-newsmen, is doing David |
,attle against the Goliath of govern
nent secrecy. AS old fashioned as
the subcommittee
believes that public decisions in a
democracy are only as good as the
on which they are based.
t has no gripe with real security.
But it wants to make sure that no
hony security label is used to hide
ssential facts from Americans.
All of which explains why Snyder
I'LL have a hard time when he faces
he group in November.

cial to PEOPLES VOICE

WASHINGTON, D. Con- No.
vember Is and 10 the House Govern.
ment Information subcommittee will
hold hearings at which the chief wit
ness will be tall, suave young man
named Murray Snyder. Snyder, q
former White House press expert, is
now Assistant Secretary of Defense
in charge of public affairs. This makes
him the top man on the military totem
pole when it comes to deciding just
how much the taxpayer is allowed to
know about the multibillion dollar de-
fense establishment which he subsi-
dies.
What makes the hearing especially
worth watching is little episode that
occurred a few weeks ago. Early in
1856 ARMOR Magazine, published by
the U. S. Armor Association, decided
to review book written by a Con-
federate general and first published
in 1879. Once written, the review
was submitted to the Department of
Defense for security review. Just
what there was in a review of 78-
year old book that needed a security
check is still not apparent. But in
tellectual timidity is a characteristic
of the post-Mc Carthy world, and the
editors decided to play it more than
safe.
RIGHT TO KNOW
In due course the Department
"cleared'' the review. That seemed to
be the end of the matter until recent
ly when the Government Information
subcommittee asked Snyder for a
look at the Departments files on the
case. The committee has been fight
ing an unending battle against the
natural tendency of bureaucrats, both
military and civilian, to hide non
security information from the public
Operating on the solid assumption
that secrecy breeds corruption and
that in democracy the people have
a right to know how their govern
ment functions. the committee has
been studying the information poll
cies of various federal departments
and agencies. AS part of this study
it wanted to see what makes the De-
fense Department tick. The file in
this case, the subcommittee felt,
would shed considerable light on the |
administrative procedures involved. |
1t was then that Snyder snapped |
the paddock shut on the file. Nothing
doing" he in effect told the subcom-
mittee. The subcommittee had delib-
erately chosen to ask for the file in
this case because it was perfectly
clear that a discussion of post-civil
war politics could hardly fall legiti-

make application for 1t within
two years after his death. JlD.P.
A. A recent amendment extends
in certain cases the time within
which an individual may file ap-
plication for a lump-sum in the
case of a worker who died after
1916. Where there was good cause
for the-applicant's failure to file
within the initial period, he now
has until Sept. /, 1858 to file
such application.
@. Are benefits paid automatic
ally upon attainment of age 65
or at death? J.P.
A. No. When an insured per-
son retires, a claim must be filed
before any insurance payments
are made. 1t is very important to
remember this because the. law
permits back payments for no
more than IL months before the
month in which the claim is filed.
The lump-sum death payment can
be paid only if claim is filed
within 2 years of the workers
death.
Q. How many people in Della
ware are receiving monthly So
cial security checks? Pm.
A. over 10000 Delawareans
are receiving benefit checks each
month and the amount of these
payments exceed $1,000, 900 a
month. About 80 percent of the
working people in Delaware are
covered by social security and
earning future protection for
themselves and their families.
@. Does a person have to be
in need before he can claim pay
ments? A. Dep.
A. No. A retired worker, his
wife or widow, and usually minor
children, may qualify for benefits
without regard to their financial
resources, such as savings, pro-
perty, or other insurance. How
ever, husbands, widowers, parents
and sometimes minor children,
are required to establish that they
had been dependent for at least
half their support on the worker
on whose record they claim bene-
fits.
