Engineers, and the Bonneville Power Administration into a
single agency. It would not threaten the independence or activi
ties of any of the other Federal agencies. The bill specifically re
affirms existing water rights as defined in state law. The bill pro
vides for payment to state and local governments in lieu of prop
erty taxes.
The Columbia River Valley is the last great undeveloped ter
ritory in the United States. Development lags far behind the
needs of the region. Maximum development could meet the pres
ent needs' of the Northwest, and then some. With its power har
nessed, its lands irrigated, and its resource development geared to
an expanding economy, the Northwest could invite new millions
to enjoy the abundance which is now locked in the confusion and
inefficiency of an unworkable formula.

unnecessary, as I think I have pointed out above—but mostly I
oppose it because of the nature of the bill itself (I shall be glad
to send anyone a copy). It places in the hands of a three-man
board appointed by the President far more power over our lives
and resources than honest men should want to administer. Con
trary to proponent claims, there is not one word in the bill which
provides local authority in the CVA administration. The CVA
board could enter into any kind of business under the guise of
“practical demonstrations.” It is specificially given control of
wildlife and other recreational assets. I can think of no power that
is omitted in the cleverly drawn bill. The bill clearly provides for
a government of the Northwestern state's by men—and men who
do not even have to be residents of the area for longer than a few
days-—rather than government hy law.
The important thing to remember about this CVA scheme is
what the BILL SAYS THE AUTHORITY CAN DO—not
what the advocates tell you the directors will or will not,do.
There is a legend carved in the stone above an entrance to a
government building on Pennslyvania Avenue which reads:
“LAW ALONE CAN GIVE US FREEDOM.”

went on to take the ND crown.
When Oregon State tried for a re
turn at Eugene, they were beaten
handily. Then Oregon’s golf world
collapsed—College of Puget Sound
swept a practice match; the Hus
kies sprawled all over the Ducks on
the next day—and then Oregon
proceeded to place behind Wash
ington State, Washington, Oregon
State in the ND finals.
KDUK NotjFirst School Station;
OthergCampuses Have 'Em Too
KDUIv, the University campus station, is by no means the first op
snly campus station in the nation.
Beside the Oregon campus are neighbors such as U. of Washington,
Washington State college, U. of Southern California, Stanford, U. of
Idaho, and Pacific university.
In the East there are stations of the “wired wireless” variety at.
lale, Boston U., and New York U. The general national finding
is that these stations arc hard to assign frequency ratings, and these
stations fight the same problems of radiation that Oregon's KDUK
will have to fight.
KDUK is the first "wired wireless" on a campus station in Oregon.
At Oregon State College, a few students work over KOAC, a state sta
tion, for experience.
Another neighbor, Washington State College's KWSC, is similar
to Oregon’s student participation plan only they have reached the
stage where the station is completely student operated.
Many of the Washington State students are hired by Spokane sta
tions or are given a chance to participate on Spokane stations in some
way or another for professional experience.
KUOI at the U. of Idaho in Moscow announces its shows as the
“voice of the vandal." The top staff members of KUOI receive salaries,
and the centralization of the campus area gives the station excellent
reception and campus coverage.
The University of Southern California has had a station for two
years now. This station functions under faculty advisorship, and its
best talent can work on station KUSC in Los Angeles.
Stanford’s station, KSU, is operated on a commercial basis. It
carries advertising, broadcasts daily soap operas, and operates entire
ly separate of faculty administration.
