Had it not been for the additional $13,000,000 recently provided by congress, reduced payment rates would have been necessary be cause of the Increased participa tion In the 1944 program.

Stanton lUE'RE off on the subject of fishing again today. Maybe " the reason we give so much thought to fishing is because we can t pursue our favorite sport as frequently as we did in more normal years, before the: nazis and the Japs upset our comfortable routine, and must confine ourselves to thinking instead of acting. But we are inspired today Hill Smith. To the business Smith, one of Oregon's most prominent insurance manag ers. But to the thousands of men who fish Oregon streams or hunt game birds and animals he is "Bill" Smith, one of the foremost exponents of game conservation. He served for a number of years as president of the Oregon Wildlife federation. He wds the author of the steelhead bill which was passed by the legislature to the people by the fish packing interests, who barely suc ceeded in defeating the measure by falsely claiming the need of stcelheads to feed soldiers and caricaturing sports- men as Jap lovers sticking knives into the backs of Ameri can fighting men. Bill is now engaged in an Oregon of the danger of wildlife destruction inherent in the current fad of the federal government in building high dams wherever opportunity offers. Just why there should be the federal government to build a dam in every stream big enough to turn a turbine, Bill doesn't attempt to explain, but we have a sneaking hunch the administration finds it the fastest way to spend taxpayers' money without involv ing a lot of complaint. In fact, stung by the hydro with irrigation and flood control fever, the American peo ple are clamoring for more and more dams, and each com munity wants surveys and developments just because their neighbors have had several million dollars of federal funds dumped into their community by construction work. And while public opinion is justifying expenditure of billions of taxpayer dollars, the administration is planning XYZ au thorities to blanket the United Bill Smith is asking the people of Oregon to think serious ly about where this new fad we already have more farm in normal years. When we bring more land into production through irrigation we simply must take out of production course, there are many ramifications of thai, subject, par ticularly with relation to sub of productivity, etc. But the study. He also points out that ready completed in the Columbia basin coupled with pro-: jects instituted for postwar rristrall trie electric energy the Pacilic Northwest will need.' Flood control, in his opinion, can largely be handled with-i out the necessity of high dams. Bill is pleading, particularly, for our coastal streams,! which he wants left undisturbed in order that their recrea-i tional value shall not be impaired. That section of Oregon! west of the Cascades, in his opinion, is America's finest' playground, and he has travelled enough to quality as some-! thing of an expert on that subject. Western Oregon, he be-' ieves, can reap millions of dollars every year from the tour-! ist crop in the days following the war, if we will guard ouri natural resources and not permit their destruction. I Confine dams to the Columbia basin and leave coastal I streams untouched, he urges, thus preserving the resources j which will attract tourists from all parts of the world j year after year. j Nothing is more destructive to fish life than high dams.! They cut fish off from their natural spawning areas. They ! raise water temperatures to a degree which destroys many! species of game fish. They add to pollution by creating1 stagnation and by spreading water over irrigated lands. ; The people of Oregon, Bill insists, should carefully weigh' values. They should determine whether the expenditure of large sums ol money on a temporary prosperity, is of serving a resource which will year. They should ascertain new farm lands by irrigation I already in production will oecome valueless, .aiui. aoove all, he insists, they should evaluate costs in terms of pos-j sible benefit!. Major J.
