Public Power Advocates
Start Drive for More PUD's
Bv GEORGE E. JONES
United Press Staff Correspondent
SALEM, Ore., April 21 u.M
Generators will soon start voltage
moving from mighty Bonneville
dam, and backers of public power
today organized their forces lor a
drive to make western Oregon
power-conscious.
Herman E. Lafky, attorney for
the southwest Washington people's
utility district, said public-power
workers would strive to pull Ore
gon up to a par with the state of
Washington, where 25 districts
have been organized.
Test For WD
At the same time, the move fur
nished Interest as a practical ui
of the PUD statute passed by the
recent legislature:
Will the new law hamper or
ganizations of people's utility dis
tricts or facilitate the drive to
wards public power?
The outcome of the campaign
may provide an answer within a
few months after passage of the
bill. ,
Chief sponsors of the drive were
members of the Farmers' Union,
for which Lafky is attorney. No
one knew where the Oregon State
Grange stood, and the Grange at
titude may have a bearing on the
public-power situation in Oregon

MONOGRAMMED STATIONERY
VALLEY PRINTING CO.
passed by the legislature as a more
satisfactory arrangement for peo
ple's utility districts.
When the bill was up before the
legislature, however, the Grange
put up determined opposition to
the restrictions, which were these:
Every issue of revenue bonds
must be referred to voters of the
district; districts must pay munici
pal, county and state taxes as pri
vate corporations now do; inoper
ative districts must submit, on
petitions of the voters, to a dis
solution election in 10 years.
If the Grange and other ele
ments in the public-power group
turn down participation in the
campaign, the way may be open to
a decided rift.
Bonneville Opposed to Restrictions
It was generally well-known at
the legislative session that the
Bonneville office was opposed to
the restrictions suggested by Gov.
Charles A. Sprague and other con
servatives in both houses.
Sen Lyman Ross, Dem., Wash
ington, carried the fight against
the bill to a bitter conclusion.
Subsequent threats of a referen
dum movement died down and a
high grange official said the
statute would be given a two-year
tryout before the referendum was
invoked.
The present attitude of the Bon
neville office was not known. J. u.
Ross, first administrator, died
while the legislature was in ses
sion, and his successor must de
termine the attitude, if any.
Two Districts Organized
The drive today started with but
two districts now organized one
in Tillamook, the other in Clatsop.
Neither is in operation. Two other
districts were organized through
aid of the rural electrification ad
ministration, but are located in
areas not now served by private
companies.

Fatal Prison Fire
Blamed On Matches
WORCESTER, Mass., April 21.
t)Deputy Fire Chief Fred S.
Taylor said today he believed

oners" was to blame for a fire

Sheriff H. Oscar Rocheleau,
head jailer, said the blaze was dis
covered in a padded cell occupied

blame. County and state probes
