When President Ei enhower dedicated McNary dam he paid glowing tribute to "my good friend, Senator Guy Cordon.” Can Oregon afford to lose this priceless presidential support by sending a man to the U. S. Senate who would knife the Eisenhower administration at every turn? FALLS DAM He is giving Oregon a fresh, vigorous leader ship that people like and completely trust.

Sympathy of the civilian is al- most with the "broke” service man so when these goixi looking watches with good looking bands were offered al prices rang ing from $15 to $45 they were readily purchased. The man ex plained it was a real sacrifice as he'd paid (the price varied) from $85 to $125 for the watch. The stories also varied of why he xvas broke: sometimes he xvas just plain broke, or he'd come out loser in a game, his car was broken down, he'd helped out a sick friend, but il lie could sell the watch he could still got back "to morrow.” Six known watches have been purchased here and ujxin compar ison are identical xvatches regard less of price paid for them. o A VOTE FOR CORDON iS A !

Ore. 10-ltp o © The John Day Dam between The Dalles and McNary Damn will cost around $320,000,000 to-build In the last Congress Cordon introduced a bill to authorize construi Don of this dam with the local partners, public and private, putting up more than half the cost of the dam in the form of a prepaid power contract (preference going to Oregon) and the federal government retaining lOQU ownership of the entire project as a part of the multiple purpose development of the Columbia River Basin. Not so long ago Conlon’s opponent—the New Deal candidate for the U. S. Senate—was all in favor of keeping Hi ll’s Canyon an undeveloped wilderness. Now he wants a dam built entirely oy Federal funds provided by the taxpayers of the entire United States—or nothing! If this man has his way, not one additional kilowatt shall we have from the Snake river unless the long-suffer ing U. S. taxpayer pungles up every penny! Recently this same State Senator, who now asks the voters to send him to Washington, 1). C., lumped up in a meeting at Madias and stated he voted against the proposed Pelton Dam, which would have provided power for Central Oregon and would have been built entirely by private capital without cost to the taxpayers. He was a little confused there because the Pelton Dam proposal never came before the State Senate! The Cougar dam on the South Fork of the McKenzie river is opposed by the New Deal candidate even though the “partner” in this project is a publicly owned municipal district. Just what kind of power does this man want? It can’t be electric power as such be cause he opposes everything but all-out Federal ownership. We’ll tell you. He wants a CVA with a stranglehold on the economic development of the Pacific Northwest! And the ulti mate dream of the “planners” is a Federal Power Authority to operate nation-wide and con trol every river resource in the entire U. S. Fantastic? Not at all. It is all part of a Master Plan. Eisen hower and Cordon say “let's get on with the job of develop ing the Pacific Northwest. Let’s put our natural resources to work creating payrolls and prosperity NOW!” We need all th. power we can develop, through every .source—Federal, Privat’ and Public! Before you vote, take a good, long look at Cordon's record. In his 10 years in the U. S. Senate he has stepped up Federal funds for water development in this area from 4 7f, to 27.5% of all the money appropriated for the entire United States. Could any freshman Senator do a- well—especially one op posed to everything the Eisenhower administration stands for? Now what’s all this guff about low cost Federal power? It’s a fairy-tale pure and simple. In many classifications private |>ower companies in Portland, Oregon sell power at lower cost than the TVA, which of course is subsidized by the taxpayers. What about the Partnership Plan? Does the government pay for the non-income features? Yes, it does. But th< n it always has. Th< re’s nothing new or different about that. Bonneville McNary, The Dalles dam— all multi-purpose dams built entirely by Federal funds—charge off a percentage of construction and operating costs to such pub lic benefits as flood control, navigation, conservation and so on. When the New Dealers tell you Bonneville, foi instance, is "pay ing for itself” they are not telling you the whole truth about these "hidden" costs! Remember, political hot air has never yet produced a kilowatt. DON'T LIT POWER POLITICS STAND IN THE WAY OF ORE GON'S FUTURE) A vote for Cordon is a vote for the Eisenhower Partnership Plan of orderly and comprehensive development of our hydroelectric resources! HELLS CANYON DAM j On the left wo lilt |utf o fe hot tecured or hot attempted to tecure for the Pacific haorthwotf. It is a matter of record that Cordon introduced the only Hell’s Canyon authorization attempt which ever came to a clear vote on the floor of the U S Senate At that time Cordon’s pro posal was opposed by the public-power-or-nothmg crowd in the U. S. Senate There are other suitable dam sites on the Snake Why hold out for one that the Congress has refused to authorize? Let’s get something built and start the generators turning!
