The Democratic majority report favors the proposed federal proj ect, saying the licensing by the FPC of three dams planned by the Idaho Power Co., "clearly In fringes" on the rights of Congress. The Republican minority report says the FPC decided the three dam plan was best and the legal ity of Idaho Power's construction license Is being tested in the court of appeals. The Senate Democratic policy committee plans to call the Hells Canyon authorization bill up for Senate debate In about two weeks. An Identical measure is expect ed to be brought up in the House this session in the hope of getting through Congress legislation which would have the effect of cancelling Idaho Power's license.

Controversy over VHF Channel 3. Salem's only VHF allotment by the Federal Communications Com mission, began from its original grant to this city. It was sought both by KSLM and KGAE. Sub sequently, KGAE withdrew and KSLM was given a construction Proiit. La engineering surveys, how- ver. showed the Eola Hills site first selected for the tower was not suitable. KSLM said, and for the last two years the station has been attempting to obtain FCC approval of a site east of Molalla. It has been held up by FCC ob jection on the basis that the Molalla site provides a beam over lapping with a Washington sta tion's. The more recent controversy over Channel S arose when KSLM announced it was disposing of its right to the channel to KPTV, which operates UHF Channel 27 tn in Portland. Reported price was around $27,000. The sale was understood to be contingent upon KPTV's owners, the Storer Broadcasting Company, getting permission to control more than the number of VHF stations than regulations now permit. It al ready owns five. In the meantime, however, objections were raised to having Salem's only VHF chan nel go to Portland even if the FCC relaxed its regulations and permitted the Storer Company more VHF channels. KPTV's new move Thursday in which it proposed to move its main offices to Salem, apparently was aimed to overcome objections to having the Channel moved to Port land, but whether it could still overcome the FCC rule against owning too many VHF Channels has not beeen announced.
