Hoover Refutes
Assertions Made
By Stevenson
EUGENE I Herbert Hoover
took issue with Adlai Stevenson
Monday, the former . President
denying that he ever said the
federal government should get ut
ot tne electric power Diisiness. -Hoover
said that Stevenson, the
1952 Democratic presidential can
didate in t speech here Saturday
was "led into three grave mis
statements of fact or implication
in respect to myself."
The ex-president said (1) he did
not veto the first multiple-purpose
dam for hydroelectric power; (2)
he vetoed the Norris Dam bill only
because there was not adequate
protection for the Treasury; and
(3) he never said the government
should get out of the electric power
business.
Stevenson spoke at a Democratic
rally here saying that the present
administration was going back to
the Hoover power policies of 1931,
At the time of the speech Hoover
was a few miles away on a fishing
trip. He left by plane for San
Francisco Monday after taking
issue with Stevenson in an inter
view. Past Advocacy Cited
The ex-President said, "I have
advocated multiple-purpose dams
when justified for the past 30 years.
Further, I had a large part in
bringing about and almost com
pleted during my administration
the ... first and large multiple
purpose dam in our country. This
was the Hoover Dam on the
Colorado."
Of Jhe Norris Dam veto, he said
it would have "established pure
socialism through the federal,
manufacture of fertilizer."
Hoover said his stand on the
federal government in the power
business actually was that the
government must quit "socialistic
and bureaucratic empire building
by way of operating the power
houses and distributing power, that
the federal government should sell
