Sen. Ervin Says: WASHINGTON. — The issue of fast amortization of costs in con nection with the Hells Canyon project by Idaho Power and Elec tric company has caused the Con gress to take a careful look at the whole matter. Hill Pending Senator Hyrd introduced a bill recently arid hearings have been held by the Senate Finance Com mittee on this subject. Th bill proposes to restrict issuance of rapid amortization licenses to those facilities producing new de fense items for use by the Depart ment of Defense and the Atomic Energy Commission in the nation al defense program. I believe this approach to be sound. It is not in the interest of the public to permit continued rapid amortization to industry which can still qualify under the provisions of the act. The law was a means of getting fast de fense potential in a period of na tional emergency. To permit legal abuse to continue is shortsighted indeed. , Iteview By way of review, you will re call that 1 voted last 'Tear against the government’s construction of a dam at Hells Canyon. I gave you the reasons why I voted that way. Briefly, the Federal Power Commission had issued a license to private industry to build the dam. Believing in the free enter nrise system, 1 felt the govern ment should not build the project if free enterprise was willing, ready and able to do the job. Also, 1 said that lawful contracts had already been made under govern mental auspices and that they Poel's Corner Conducted by Ann# K. Sharp, Chairman Creative Writing Group \ GARDEN A garden!

I also point ed out that the government could take over the dam under the ex ercise of its power of eminent do main should it develop that the project was vital as a govern mental project. Congress approved the free enterprise approach. Forced Issue 1 am firmly convinced that there should be no fast amortization of a project of this nature. Private enterprise should function without the blessings of fast amortization. It is good that this issue is before the Congress for action, and 1 hope that corrective measures will be forthcoming. Rack Home During the past week 1 was able to keep a schedule of speaking en gagements in North Carolina. I must admit that this was a pleas ant change for me. It afforded me the opportunity of talking over current problems with a great many of the home folks. I do not propose to press for such action, but it seems to me that Congress would be doing a lot to keep perspective by taking off a week out of each month for members to get among the folks back home. Needed Study Underway Last week Congress began hear ings on a problem that is vital. I refer to the study of atomic radia tion and its influence on mankind. Of necessity these hearings have to be highly scientific in nature, but 1 hope that you are following the hearings carefull" It is a subject on which there is much disagreement even among scient ists.

Story, by Don Whitehead. We are all inclined to take the F. B. I. for granted and trust in its honesty and efficiency. No such organization comes into existence over night. This book traces its history from Teddy Roosevelt’s “big stick” policy in 1908, thru its many struggles against injustice, crime, espionage and war, to its present position of power and reliability. The author, who is a top re porter, had the full cooperation of J. Edgar Hoover. The F. B. I. files are opened to reveal the fights against all sorts of crim inals. Names are called and the truth revealed. We see such cases as Gaston Means in Harding’s era, John Dillinger, and the Lind bergh case. This is also the Pearl Harbor story, and the fights against Communism. In short, “the history of F. B. I. is the people’s efforts to achieve gov ernment by law.” -In moving portable calf pens, Extension Service dairymen re commend starting on the lower side of slopes and working up the slope.
