STATES TO HAVE CONTROL Discussion Ha Resulted in Marked Change of Sentiment Kast Must .3Iove West to Participate in Its Development. jRBGONIAN- NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, April 3. The Pinchot idea of con serving water power is not as popular bs it once was in Congress, and no bill drawn in conformity with that idea will be written on the statute books. If Congress legislates at all on this subject it will be along the general lines laid down in bills introduced by Sena tors Jones of Washington, Carter of Montana and Sraoot of Utah, ail of which contemplate the transfer to the respect ive states of all public lands valuable in connection with water power develop ment and sale of power within their re spective boundaries. Bureaucracy Is Feared. It is true that President Taft. in a spe cial message to Congress, and Secretary Malliner, in a special report to the President, recommended legislation con ferring this power of regulation upon the Federal Government, just as Pinchot had done before them, but since those recommendations were made the subject has received considerable serious atten tion at the hands of men directly respon sible for the legislation, and most of these men disapprove of the Pinchot idea, and prefer a system of state control. They are aware that the Pinchot idea Is the idea of faddists; that the scheme, If carried through, would tend to build up the powers of bureaucracy, with at tendant increase in appropriations, but what Is really the dominant factor in knocking out the Pinchot plan is the fact that to the states belongs absolutely the control over the water, and it is field to ha hnnrnct l en 1 to con fpr itnnn rh Kederal Government, by indirection. a power that constitutionally belongs to the states. States Power Strengthened. In other words, dominant sentiment favors recognition of the rights of the states" and proposes to strengthen the hand of the states by giving; them con trol of public lands along- streams which may be needed in developing water power. Pinchot, and those who believed with him, originally sought to take from the states their authority over the water it self, and entrust that authority in the National Government. That was the con tention when President Taft took hold. He, however, recognized that the Kederal Government could not wrest this control from the states, even by act of Congress. So he and those who followed him in his conservation programme, laid out the plan whereby the Government, by con trolling the lands upon which power sta tions necessarily must be built, really could control the development of power, for under that theory the National Gov ernment could lease such lunds only on condition the individual or corporation seeking the use of tlie land would agree to sell his power on terms satisfactory to the FVderal Government. Discussion Changes Sentiment. There are some who still agree with the President's idea, but discussion and de liberation over the subject has turned a great many men from it, and sentiment is now crystallizing in support of legis lation which recognizes ahsolutely the right of the states to regulate tlie use of water within their boundaries, and pro poses to turn over to them such ad ditional authority as will make their power absolute in the control of power development. That would be . accom plished by the Jones, the Carter or the ftmoot hill. To do otherwise, it is con tended, would be to retard power develop ment unnecessarily, for under the sys tem propose! by the President, the states still could Impose a tax for the use of the water, while the FVderal Government was imposing a tax for the Vise of the land, and under this dual system of tax ation, capital would be slow to invest. When Mr. Pinchot and his fellow fad dists and theorists started out with their crusade to "beard the power trust." since admitted to he non-existent, the Kast generally applauded their move, and took the position that the resources of the West belong to the people, of the entire country. Westerners, however, have ex ploded this theory and made it plain that while the resources are in a sense pub lic property, and while the Eat is en titled to Plmre in the benefits accruing from the development of those resources. the Kast must move to the West, and actually participate in development. If it Is to bene ftt. In other words. Eastern capital will be welcomed in the development of the West, but the est Is not inclined, nor will it consent to any tribute to the Kast v?t AVet Desires to Benefit. It has been demonstrated that the great development of water power in the Kast has gone forward for ages under state control. That natural resource has yielded no benefit to the West, nor has the West claimed any share in the reve nues derived by the Eastern states. The West, through its Senators and Repre sentatives, now insists that it be allowed to develop its own water powers, regu late tr.; industry by state law and re ceive the full revenue arising- from the privilege. This argument, too. is beginning to have effect, and practical Eastern men in Congress are beginning to concede that the Pinchot idea Is not only unconsti tutional, but unjuet, and when the bill comes to a vote, many an Easterner and many a Southerner, both in Svuiate and House, will be found voting with the West. The Pinchot idea is exploded. Myrtle Crock Paper Purchased. MYRTLE CREEK. Or.. April 3 tSpe cial.) L- K.
