A basin-wide plan intended to en-
able public agencies and rural cleo
trio co-operatives in the Missouri
Basin to meet future power needs
by combining their resources was pre-
scented last week to Midwest Electric
Consumers Association, meeting in
Sioux Fall, S. D., by Assistant Secre-
tary of the Interior for Water and
Power Kenneth Holum. Mr.. Holum
also is chairman of Interiors Mis-
souri, River Basin Committee.
The Sioux Falls meeting was called
to lay the groundwork for a cooper
ative effort to help electric systems
in the Missouri Basin dependent upon
federally operated facilities for power
supply to meet the power shortage
expected to develop after 1865. The
Bureau of Reclamation, earlier this
year, had agreed to extend it's sup
Elemental power program from 1868
through the navigation season of
1865, to provide for power require
ments of preference customers.
Highlights of the plan presented
by Secretary Holum include:
The Bureau will make surplus
capacity in it's transmission system
available to permit the installation
of 200,000-kw steam unit. No adj
ditional transmission lines would have
to be constructed now by preference
customers to deliver the output of
such large plant.
The Bureau would set up long
term arrangements with preference
customers who install steam general
ing plants, to provide for a joint tram
mission system. This would be paid
for on an equitable cost-sharing basis.
The Bureau would enter into re-
serve power arrangements with pref
erence customers, SO that they would
be assured of power to serve. their
loads during periods of overhaul or
other emergency situations.

THE RACING YOUNG MAN,
THE SAD SOVIET SCIENTIST

1t was just an accident, of course,
that John Osborne, the British play
wright, should have written his vio-
lent letter to the TRIBUNE of Lon
don just when DIR. Mikhail Antonivich
Klochko, the Soviet chemist, an
nounced that he had endured as
much as he could of life in the Soviet
Union.
damn you, England" Osborne
wrote, in his denunciation of "Mac-
MILAN and you, Gaitskell, you par
| ticularly."
81 would willingly watch you all
die for the West, if only could keep
my own miniscule portion of it. You
could all go ahead and die for Berlin,
for democracy, to keep out the Red
hordes or whatever you like"
He wrote from the French Riviera,
apparently his own miniscule portion
of it. But Osborne did not give up
his British citizenship or any of its
privileges.
Then there is Professor Klochko.
At the age of SO he has uprooted him
self from his native land. severed his
lifetime relations with his fellow
scientists and described life in the
proletarian paradise.
81 was depressed by the lack of
contact with the outside world, the
falsity of information and the diff
Guilty of self-expression.
"It became obvious to me that if
| stayed in the u. S. S. R. / would not
be able to give to mankind all that
could if | were in a free, demo-
cratic country"
Pure scientific research, the pro-
fessor reported, is constantly ham,
pered by political considerations
But worse:
''It is the lack of human dignity in
the u. S. S. r. that hurts most. | am
not after fame or glory. seek nei-
Their. | just want to serve mankind.
I assure you that these are my full
and real reasons and this is my firm
and final decision"
