BPA Has
The Bonneville Power Administration
nniy be the center of pro and anti-public
power arguments for many years to
come, but no one can deny the big Co
lumbia River power project ban had its
impact on Oregon economy.
This year, the BPA is celebrating its
25th anniversary. It was on Aug. 29, 19IS7
that; President Franklin D. Roosevelt
sinned the Bonneville Project Act.
Since then, the project has prowil to
surpass any other single river basin in
the world in hydroelectric development.
BPA's utility operation, serving an
area of 220,000 square miles, reaches into
Oregon, Washington, northern Idaho,
western Montana and a corner of Neva
da. From its power capacity, it has sold
U63 billion kilowatt - hours of power,
enough to meet the current power re
quirements of the entire United States
for more than six months. It feeds pow
er to publicly owned utilities (1,'5.1 per
cent) privately-owned utilities (10.3 per
cent) aluminum industries (30.1 per cent)
and federal agencies and other indus
tries (15.7 per cent). Power . sales to
these sources for fiscal 1952 amounted to
?b'9 million for 29.2 billion kilowatt-hours.
The industries served by BPA today
represent a gross investment of nearly
$400 million and pay annual state and
local taxes ranging from $5 million to $7
million.
Since its inception 25 years ago, BPA
has returned more than $800 million to
the U.S. Treasury, and was $20 million
ahead of its scheduled payout.
This is on an investment of ,$2.l bil
lion in the total U.S. Columbia River

As We Should, Claim
Tuesday evening, while listening
to Radio Station KQEN and its
panel of high, school students, I felt
someone should sound an alarm as
I heard thoso precious young high
school girls wrestling with the knot
ty problems with which our nation
is confronted.
Somcona should try to awaken
our people to the truth. Yet, I
wonder if wo will listen to truth. I
wonder if wo really want truth.
While I was yet a child I remem
ber hearing the old saying: "Give
the calf enough rope and he will
hang himself."
Likewise, give a man enough
power and he will destroy himself.
Man now has this power in his
hands.
God has not left us in the dark
concerning these things. The Bi
ble, which is God's word, plainly
tells us what will come to pass.
The Uible, itself, claims to be the
word of God. Wo're told in Tim.
II 3:10: "All scripture is given
by inspiration of God and is profit
able for doctrine, for reproof, for
correction, for instruction In right
eousness." While Russia tries to deny there
is a God, and America claims to
be a Christian nation, I am afraid
wo must admit that we are a sin

should.

System. Of this total, $1.8 billion is al
located to power.
Of course, everything isn't coming up
roses. At the end of the annual operating
year in 1902. operating deficits stood at
$17,700,000. The BPA is working on this
through payout schedule revisions, in
creased sales in the region served and
, through a California intertie. A rate in
crease might even be in line.
Administrator Charles Luce says on
the subject: "We do not believe that as
a matter of policy a federal power sys
tem should operate in the red, and we
are dedicated to taking such steps in 1963
as are necessary to correct this situa
tion. The Bonneville dam and other dams
in the system reach far down into south
ern Oregon to help boost industry. The
latest project is a new transmission line
to the Ueedsport area to serve the big
new industries coming in there. They also
furnish electricity to much of the north
ern part of the county through Douglas
Electric Cooperative and to the Hanna
nickel mine and smelter.
The BPA estimates that 99 per cent
of the Pacific Northwest's farms are now
electrified. It estimates typical residen
tial and farm families in Oregon and
Washington today use about 10,000 kilowatt-hours
of electricity a year and have
an average investment of about $2,000 in
electrical appliances.
The Bonneville system may be con
troversial, but its effect on the life and
economy of Douglas County and the rest
of the Northwest in its first 25 years has
been tremendous.

Question fur today:
What kind of person is the nor

You'll be surprised.
She is "astonishingly normal."
She is physically attractive. She

But Oil, she's DULL!
Who says so?
Well, it isn't just back yard gos

carefully considered profile of the
males, as reported at a meeting in
St. Louis of the American Psychi

How did the study that resulted
In this conclusion get started?
It's quite a story. In an attempt
to discover the characteristics of
"the normal American male," the
psychiatric investigators first stud
ied SI) men who 13 years ago as
ninth graders had obtained nor
mal personality scores on tests giv
en to almost 200 Minneapolis stu
dents. That study attracted so much at
tention that Inter Ihe wives of 38
of these men who had married at
age 2li were studied. The combined
results were made public at St.
Louis as a part of the Psychiatric
Association's week-long conference.
Most of the couples, it was learn
ed in the study, were religiously
devout and had attained the same
levels of education. None had even
temporarily separated from a
spouse and there was no evidence
of critical marital discord in their
futures.

About Statescraft

WASHINGTON (UP1) If I
told you that a bonk had just
been published under the title
"How to Run a Country," who
would you guess to be Ihe au
thor? Leo Diirocher? David Suskind?
Liz Taylor? Wrong.
This book is a compilation of
views on statescraft by a group
of Caroline Kennedy's contempo
raries. It was put together by
Harold Dunn, a schoolteacher,
from letters that children have
written to members of Congress.

j Kids More Erudite
j But I find that when kids are ;
writing to their congressmen they I
! display far more erudition and !
perspicuity than when they are
talking to their parents, or Art
I.inkletter.
! For instance, no one who has
j ever engaged in a sibling rivalry
1 could help hot admire ihe little,
girl who wrote to Hep. Paul A. j
; Kino, R-N.Y., asking him to j
: "send me the form to disinherit !
sisters."
This shows that civilization has
made real progress in the last
few decades. In my day. e
would have asked for rat poison.
It also is reassuring to note
that tattle telling has become
i groat deal more sophisticated
than it was when I was a boy.

Informs On Jan
i A letter received by Sen,
(Thomas J. Dodd, D Conn., of
ten
-. v.ffn
, did declare under oath that some-.
spat a gob hot spit right in her
eye.
I do not so much hold with the
recent civil action of a young man
suing to get into college, irrespec
tive of religion or color, as his
reason. He sued, and lost, because
his entrance examinations were 7
per cent below the required 85 per
cent high-school average.
, The caso first went to the State
Supernie Court of New York last
Stepember, and was upheld, as is
popular in most court cases of
this nature, these days. But re
cently five justices of the Appel
late Division of the Surevume Court
of Brooklyn reversed the earlier
decision. In effect, the appellate
boys said that what the litigant
,,eeuuu was i ou .v. nu.cn a lawyer
as a tutor. They just said that the

aiuuiiu wun such ucucaie rnacuin-
;ery as a person's ability to pass
a required set of standsards. The.,
case now goes to the Court of
Appeals in Albany. i
I see also that an admitted homo
sexual has filed a suit against the
Labor Department, in which he
doth declare that homosexuality
is not sufficient grounds for the i
government's failure to rehire
that group reads as follows:
"...Jan keeps her fingers crossed
when she sings Ihe Star Spangled
Banner."
A child's world in respect to
sex likewise has changed consid -
erably, as witness the letter
schoolgirl addressed to the "birth
control section" of Congress.
The book doesn't say to whom
it was delivered, but the text of
the missive went like this: "For
my class project 1 am to get all
the information I can about birth
control. Can you help me or am
1 too expectant?"
A juvenile constituent named
formed his own opinion
so don't
give any facts.
If Gilbert continues (0 refuse
to he inlluenred bv facts, he
probablv will be elected to Con-''
gross himself some day.
Although their letters are char.
acteristic of the modern genera -
tion. the book makes clear that
there is one area in which kids
haven't changed hit. They still
can't spell worth a dime

County Loses Good Friend
With 'Doc' Wellman's Death
A miKhty good friend has been lost by the News- Review.
The sudden death of Glen (Doc) Wellman has removed
a frequent contributor to pur Reader Opinions column; cms
who has served both the newspaper and the county's thou
sands of bowlers, one who, in a far more important role,
contributed in a most vigorous way to the advancement of
Douglas County as a poultry center.
We can be thankful "Doc" went quickly, instead of suf
fering a lingering, painful death. He had filled his "three
score years and ten" with a lot o:f living. And the active
years of his life were given in service to others. In my esti
mation there is no other higher standard for measuring
success.
Wellman became known as
"Doc" many years ago when he
entered the employ of the Doug
las County Flour and Feed Co.,
operated for so many years by the
Bashford family.
Originally one of Douglas Coun
ty's pioneer flour milling opera
tions, this concern branched out
into feeds as the raising of poultry
became an infant industry.
Wellman was called in as a spe
cialist in poultry diseases and as
an expert in poultry feeds.
Not only did he devote himself to
the welfare of the companv but, a
natural promoter, he gave most
energetic and able service to ad
vancing the poultry industry.
Show Organized
In company with several of the
early day turkey raisers, he was
one of the principal figures in the
start of the turkev raising, indus
try in Douglas County. He heloed
