fore the Federal Power Com
mission but touched on such
Items as tne Tennessee Valley
Authority, mining, natural gas,
oil, and soil conservation.
Gov. Frank C. Clement,
Tennessee Democrat, declared
his state is not satisfied with
the administration's treatment
of the Tennessee Valley Au
thority.
Eisenhower listened atten
tively but made no comment.
At the outset of the round
table discussion, Gov. Howard
Pyle, Arizona Republican and
panel leader, said the admin
istration is "ready, willing and
able and determined "to
oversee natural resource prob
lems with a "minimum of dis
cord and a maximum of bene
fit" for the public at large.
Gov. Paul Patterson, Oregon
republican, told the confer
ence there is a definite place
for public and private devel
opment of water and power.
The big question, he observed,
is just where to draw the line.
Patterson said the Northwest
Power Pool may offer the key
to the problem on a long-range
basis. All watts developed by
municipal. Rural Electrification
Administration and private
projects are thrown together,
he said, and tapped by all users,
whether public or private.
He suggested that local areas
should be allowed to develop
smaller units with the federal
government taking the lead on
multi-purpose dams.

Scio Man Does Well on
State Vocational Plan
Monticello, Thomas Jeffer
son's home, has 35 rooms in
three floors and a basement.
The benefits to be derived
by former servicemen and
servicewomen through the pro
gram administered by the
state department of vocational
education is well demnostrat-
ed by the experiences of
George Butler of Route 2, Box
219. Scio.
Described as "typical
graduate of this training plan"
as set up ty state law which
now Incorporates veterans of
the Korean war, Butler reviewed-his
four years of train
ing during an Interview with
Garth Rouse, veteran agricul
tural instructor at Cascade
Union high school, Turner.
Before he went into the
army, Butler lived in Sublim
ity and helped his father in the
production of strawberries and
cane berries. A product of
Iowa, the father found it dif
ficult to adjust to Oregon
farming conditions but gave
his son all the help he could.
After the war George farm
ed with an uncle in the Silver
ton district, but subsequently
moved to the Linn county
farm he is leasing. Shortly
thereafter he enrolled in the
veterans agricultural class
taught by Charles Fulton in
Salem and then transferred to
Cascade Union hfgh when the
course was Installed there.
Butler feels he has learned
a great deal about the Grade
A dairy business and is cur
rently building a dairy on the
place he purchased near Mar
ion. He continues to operate
ine leasea tana.
The seed business has pro
vided Butler with an oDPor
tunity' to take advantage of
the knowledge gained through
his class work. However,
through farm management
classes, he has learned to shift
his crops with the tide of
profit and loss and is placing
more emphasis on other farm
products this year.
Shop courses, states Butler,
have been of benefit in the
maintenance of farm machinery-
and scientific farming
methods including the use of
fertilizers and weed spraying
are paying off.
"I learned a lot at night
classes, but got more from the
field classes," Butler sums up.
'Sometimes I was a little
skeptical of some of the prac
tices that were taugiit but
when we got into the field and
could see with our own eyes
the results that were possible
and talked to farmers and
learned the mistakes that were
made, it really soaked in."
