After introducing his bill, Ells worth Issued a statement warning that opposition by Oregon Dnmo- l cratic members of Congress could possibly block approval 01 nis mil. Stressing not only the power bene fits of the two projects, Ellsworth declared: "it will be a great shame if our people are denied this urgently needed flood control because of the political opposition of men who are still living in the New Deal federal power monopoly days." This had no sooner hit the pages of Oregon newspapers when Morse struck back with a reply that charged Oregon Republican con gressmen with "frantic alibiing" and serving as spokesmen for pri vate utilities. Urging that Cougar and Green Peter dams be built by the federal government, Morse declared: "When Republican members of Congress from Oregon seek to mis lead the people of Oregon -by state ments to the effect that votes can not be obtained in Congress for the construction of these projects by the federal government, they should make clear they are talk ing about only Republican votes.' Ellsworth argued that for year control and power dams had been kept "out of politics," with the result that Lookout Point, Detroit, Fern Ridge and Dorena dams had been built in the Willamette. ';It is a mean and tragic situa tion," the GOP congressman ex claimed, charging Democrats with making the construction of such projects a partisan matter.

Picking up his argument that it is Republican opposition that has Democrats because it has been Democratic administrations that have built the great power proj ects of the Pacific Northwest, such as Bonneville, Grand Coulee, The Dalles and McNary. And it has been Democrats in the House and Senate who have continued to fight for them over the opposi tion of the Republican administration." HENRY H. MILLER CONTRACTOR Hiway 99 South Acrois From E.
