the nation’s greatest new source of electric energy.
The great river systems of this country are among
the most precious assets o f our people, but as long
as they are undeveloped they are going to waste.
Their rapid development for complete use is one
o f the most urgent tasks before us.
“ Hydro-electric power and irrigation are clearly
essential for the Wealthy growth of the Pacific
Northwest and I urge that they go forward to the
full extent that they can be honestly self-sustaining
and self-liquidating. On this basis, public appro
priations are to be regarded as investments in
America’s productive future. The same is true of
needed flood control and navigation projects.

overnor thomas e . dewey believes
earnestly in rapid development of hydro
electric power and irrigation in Oregon. He believes
in harnessing the great productive potential of
the Pacific Northwest.
Governor Dewey’s record of building business
and job opportunities in New York State is one of
his outstanding achievements. He knows how to
work with management and labor because both
management and labor trust and admire him.
The country needs his experience and compe
tence in achieving for Oregon and the entire
Northwest the benefits of greater industrial produc
tion that he has accomplished so successfully in
New York State.
G
Development Must Continue Full Blast
Here is what he says: “ Here in the Columbia River
drainage basin you have the nation’s greatest
reserves of hydro power, together with the naviga
tion facilities and the growing population which
have already made the Pacific Northwest an expand
ing center of industry. Both for the Nation’s
defense and for the greatest advancement of our
people’s well-being, this is a development which
must be continued full blast.
“ It is our country’s good fortune that the

Aggressive Program, Federal Help Proposed
“ River development should be on a regional basis.
Such large scale multiple-purpose projects as those
for the drainage basins of the Columbia, the Mis
souri and the Willamette are a natural responsibility
for the federal Government. I propose an aggre^
live and a continued orderly program of developing
all such major resources for the benefit o f the
nation. And by that I mean to include McNary
Dam, and Foster Creek and Hungry Horse and
such others as may be feasible, all together or in
their logical succession.
“ In tnew. resources some sections are more’richly
endowed than others, but this is not a sectional
m
r. Anything that builds a bigger We«t, builds
a greater and stronger America for all our people.**
