Boys in Cave
II Days. Say
PhoneH Helped

BLOOMINGTON. Ind. Sept.
II (AP).-Three Indiana Uni
versity students-two teen
ayers and one 20-year-old-
today credited a telephone with
making endurable a 12-day
stay in q cold. damp cave.
Bearded and smeared with
clay, they crawled out Of the
sewerlike entrance of Wayne
Cave last night and claimed
q record for a voluntary stay
In a cavern.
Dick Martin of Terre Haute,
Ind. Oldest of the three and
president Of the I. U. Memorial
Union Spelunking Club, said
cave enthusiasts had spent Up
to eight days in Kentucky and
Pennsylvania caves.
No Cabin Fever
Zone Of the main reasons we
aidnt get cabin fever was the
telephone at the base camp
about a quarter mile inside the
cave" young Martin said. I'VE
kept pretty busy mapping and
exploring, and then we'd call
up our girls and our families
On the phone"
They slept in tents equipped
with gasoline stoves.
Jim Neawedde, whose father
owns the ground over part Of
the cave, had some bad min
utes on the way out. He got
q leg cramp while dragging
leftover supplies the last 1000
feet, which can be negotiated
only by crawling.
Fell Over Stone
Young Martin fell over q
stone in one of the bigger
passages and bruised a hip,
but Dave Mercer, third Of the
trio, escaped any mishaps.
Martin said the Spelunkers
failed to find another entrance
TO the cave, one of their main
detectives, but they found four
places where holes can be en-
larged into entrances.
"It didn't seem like a good
idea to do it from the bottom"
he added.
The boys considered their
major discovery a cluster of
moon milk" stalactites and
stalagmites, previously un-
known in this region. They
are q delicate "cheesy" forma-
ton that falls apart at a touch.

RefueIing
Planes to Be
Protected
BY the Associated Press

The Federal Aviation Agency
plans to give military aircraft
engaged in aerial refueling the
right Of way over other sky
traffic.
The agency will accept COM
ments on the proposed new rule
until October 80.
1t said action is necessary
because Of the large increase
in military in-flight refueling
operations, and the inability of
the planes involved to ma
neuver to avoid a collision.
The Air Force and the Navy
conduct hundreds of aerial re-
fueling missions each day. A
typical refueling operation
takes from 20 to Is minutes.
To avoid conflict with civil
air operations. aerial refueling
missions are scheduled with the
FAA at least IS days in adj
vance, and only in established
or approved areas.
Present flight rules give less
maneuverable aircraft the right
Of way over other planes be-
cause they are less capable of
taking evasive action, but they
do not explicitly cover planes
being refueled.
EAA also announced yester-
DAY an agreement with the De-
tense Department for the loan
or transfer of certain military
planes to FAA.
E. r. Quesada. FAA admins
traitor, said the agreement will
enable the agency to use high
performance planes for nec...-
sary test and research opera
tions, without the expense Of
buying them.

BY the Associated Press


The Air Force has accepted
q cut rate payment from the
State Of Louisiana in settlement
Of its argument with Gov. Earl
Long over the alleged misuse
Of National Guard aircraft.
The Air Force said that a
payment of $1.260 had been
received and accepted for the
Federal Government" covering
Guard transport plane use by
or on account of Gov. Long
during his early summer trav-
els.
The Air Force had billed
Louisiana for $4.25l for use Of
Guard planes.
Neither the Guard bureau
nor the Air Force had detailed
the specific instances in which
the two Washington agencies
claimed misuse of the planes.
An Air Force spokesman said
that receipt of the reduced
amount from Louisiana settled
the matter as far as the Fed
eral Government is concerned.
In Baton Rouge. Gov. Long
said some friends of mine"
made up a purse in New Or
leans and offered the Air Force
the smaller sum but added he
did not know the amount.
"They offered to pay what
the Air Force would agree to
take" Gov. Long said.
Previously. he said he would
not pay the bill because they
can't send me to jail"

By GRETCHEN BILLINGS

Jim Patton. president of the Ma
tional Farmers Union, said in Great
Falls in October, "What the American
people need is a philosophical hitch
ing post.
This is no less true when we get
| down to the utility regulation field
than it is at any level of political ac-
tivity however, as is true with
so many of our theories of govern
ment. we have accepted regulation
of the public utilities under private
monopoly ownership as desirable and
necessary and have let it go at that
When it didn't work out according
to the blueprint we sought scape-
goat and became cynical about it.
When the theory was written into
law we turned the matter over to
the commissions established to handle
the regulation and instead of carry
ing on the philosophical battle and
demanding that commissions carry
out the intent of the law, we let the
utilities move in and call the terms.
Public Service Commissioners have
been the scapegoat for high utility
bills in Montana since | can remem-
Der, yet we have had candidates on
the ballot time after time who would
have had consumer interests at heart
and we haven't worked or cared
enough to get them elected.
If we accept the premise that de-
mocracy is good and right it extends
to every phase of elective govern
ment. 1t is meaningless to merely say
regulation is necessary and then elect
men who simply sign decisions writ
ten by the corporations.
That this is what has been happen
ing to us has never been more evident
than it was between 1858 and 1857
when Arnold Olsen carried a tele-
phone and gas case to the State Su-
preme Court.

MOST CAREFUL AND
CO-ORDINATED PLANNING

Undoubtedly, there is more time,
careful planning and coordination
with local, state and federal agencies
devoted to the development of prof.
ects in the water resource program
than there is in practically any other
field of federal expenditures.
This care has proved to be bene-
fit to the people of this country. In
the field of flood control, the projects
that have been placed in operation
have prevented flood damages of over
9 billion dollars to date-about three
times the cost of these works.

Over the years the utilities have

doggling, political raids on the Treas
ury-schemes dreamed up by politi-
tians to satisfy the people back home
and thereby insure their reelection.
This is simply not true.
1t might be well to consider the OBJ
stacle course that a public works
project must overcome before a
single shovel of dirt is turned.
INVESTIGATION,
THE FIRST STEP
When a project is first proposed,
the Corps of Engineers must seek an
appropriation from Congress to make
an investigation as to whether or not
the project is economically sound.
Once funds are provided, a public
hearing is held to determine the de-
sires of local interests. The technical
personnel of the district office of
the Corps of Engineers then make
detailed survey of the physical and
economic factors involved and deter
mine the estimated cost. They then
determine the annual carrying
charges and amortization. A COM
parison of annual costs with benefits
determines whether or not the Corps
will approve a project.
But this is not all. The report is
then reviewed by the division engi-
neer and public notice is issued ad-
vising all interested parties of their
findings. If a public hearing is de-
sired, arrangements for such can be
made with the board of engineers for
rivers and harbors in Washington,
D. c., which also reviews the district
engineers report and the comments
of the division engineer.
After the board has completed it's
review, a report, is then submitted to |
the Chief of Engineers, where the re-
port is again reviewed. The proposed |
report of the Chief of Engineers is
then furnished the Governors of the |
affected states and interested fed
eral agencies.
After considering these comments,
the Chief of Engineers completes his
report and submits it to the Bureau
of the Budget for information as to
the relationship of the report to the
program of the President.
After review by the Bureau of the
Budget, the report, with all accom-
panying papers, is submitted to the

ne was more mellow toward them
than our own expert. that the con-
sumer group again brought in. The
Utility Consumer expert, DR.. KNAPP
pen. brought a bright new day to
utility rate making in Montana. The
commission accepted much of his
rate-making theory when they de-
MED the telephone company rate
increase in 1857, and cut the re-
quested increase of the power COM
pany.
Above and beyond that the
Utility Consumers Organization is
solely responsible for saving utility
users in Montana over 81. million
dollars over the past two years.
In spite of this tremendous achieve
ment in rate-making history in Mon
tana. | understand it is difficult for
the organization responsible for this
unprecedented success to raise
enough money to pay the expenses of
the most recent. and still undecided
telephone case.
The utilities are wise. They know
that nothing happens of it's own ac-
cord. and knowing that they do some
thing about it. They feel they can
depend on the apathy of the people
to turn the tide in their favor. And
certainly if the people are not willing
to pay a couple dollars to save them
selves $50 or more there is little
reason to expect the utilities to sit
quietly by. 1t would be wonderful
if they accepted their responsibility
in the public service field as the
trust that it is, but history tells us
nothing that would indicate the dawn
of right and light will begin with the
private utilities.
And it certainly wasn't the virtuous
activities of the utilities that made
regulation necessary in the first
place.
So if regulation in Montana hasn't
proven successful :. if the Public
Service Commission is not bound to
protect the interests of the consum-
er if the people can not see the
necessity of providing the financial
means to protect their interests
where are we?

CONGRESS THEN ASKED
TO AUTHORIZE

At this point, bill authorizing the
project is introduced and referred to
the Senate and House Public Works
Committees, which hold extensive
hearings at which all interested par
ties are given an opportunity to be
heard. After a bill has been enacted
by the House and Senate and an
agreement reached in conference, the
bill is sent to the President. After
approval of the bill, the project be-
comes authorized and is a part of the
backlog of authorized projects.
If the project survives this careful
scrutiny, the next step is to secure
an appropriation for advanced plan
ming. Such detailed planning may
cover a period of anywhere from
one to four years, depending on the
scope of the project involved.
When all the detailed planning has
been completed, appropriations may
be requested for the initiation of
construction. What is more, each year
the appropriation committees of the
Congress re-examine each project
its costs, it's benefits, it's physical
features and the amounts requested
before supplying more funds.
