Water Program For Columbia Basin
Recommended By Army Engineers
WASHINGTON, May 17. UP)
Major General Lewis A. Pick,
chief of Army engineers, recom
mended Monday a 51,570,000,000
water program for the Columbia
River basin.
Pick told a House Public Works
subcommittee on flood control
the Pacific northwest needs for
water development are great. He
said the Columbia River basin
"need s for development are
among the greatest in the na
tion." The engineers' plan, he said,
includes projects for flood con
trol power, irrigation, recreation,
conservation, and navigation.
Demands for flood control were
again emphasized tragically by
the floods of 1948, he said.
Pick said the engineers' pro
gram is expected to provide more
than 6,000,000 kilowatts of power.
He said plans call for extension
of navigation to Lewiston, Idaho,
on the Snake River and to Har
risburg, Ore., on the Willam
ette. The subcommittee, of which
Rep. Davis tD-Tenn) Is chair
man, announced plans for a hear
ing Friday on the Columbia River
Basin program. At that time,
Pick said, Army engineers will
present detailed recommenda
tions. Rep. Angell (R-Ore) comment
ed that damages from floods
along the Columbia Basin amount
ed to more than 51,000,000 last

Chiropractors Assn. Asks Equality
With AMA In National Health Plan
DAVENPORT, la., May 17.
(.) A chiropractor charged the
American Medical Association
here with attempting "to keep
the supply of practitioners far
below demand."
The accusation was made
simultaneously with a petition to
Congress by the International
Chiropractors Association" to in
clude chiropractic practice on tn
equal basis with other branches
of the healing art in any national
health plan" ft may adopt.
A. A. Adams of Tacoma, Wash.,
second vice-president of the ICA,
wrote President R. L. Sensemch
of the AMA, "we smile at your
pious opposition to a national
health plan when you dodge be
hind the smoke screen ol free
competition."
"The actions of the American
Medical Association show clearly,
he said, "the AMA Is interested
in special privilege and mainten
ance of that $18,000 average level
of income lor your dues-paying
members."
Sharp Reply Drawn
In Chicago, Dr. Sesenich term
ed the letter "an example of the
Irresponsible and baseless state
ments which are being made in
support of political medicine."
Dr. Adams said figures publish
ed In the AMA Journal "Indicate
that restrictions on the number
of students permitted in medical
scnoois and hospitals, to sav
nothing of the restrictive llceri-1
sure statutes, are purposely de-!
signa 10 Keep ine supply 01
practitioners far below demand."
The request to Congress for in
cluding provision for chiroprac
tors in consideration of national
health measures was adopted by
