AsksCheck on
Newspapers
WASHINGTON on Robert M.
Hutching Thursday revived the
once controversial proposal to
create a non-press, non-government
agency to check on the perform
ance by newspapers of their public
responsibilities.
Hutchins, chairman of the Fund
for the Republic, Inc., did so in
an address prepared for the open
ing session of the three-day annual
meeting of the American Society
of Newspaper "Editors.
The editors six years ago rejected
the proposal made originally in
1JI49 by the Commission on Free
dom of the Press headed by
Hutchins. The Society said ASNE
"is itself, and must be, a continuing
committee of the whole on self
examination and self-government."
Hutchins renewed the suggestion
Thursday with criticisms only
slightly less barbed than those of
the commission he headed in 1949.
He told the approximately 400
editors that 'most of you have
watched the erosion of freedom
without a, twinge," and accepted
Incidents in connection with it
"as a matter or routine."

Utility Heads
Commend Plan
Officials of power utilities joined
in a statement Thursday, upon be
ing informed of the introduction of
the John Day dam bill by Rep.
Sam Coon, in which they said the
bill was "sensible and practical."
Joining in the statement were
Thomas W. Delzell, chairman of
the board of Portland General
Electric Company; Paul B. Mc
Kee. president of Pacific Power
& Light Company; and Kinsey M.
Robinson, president of the Wash
ington Water Power Company.
"The proposed legislation." they
said, "offers a sensible and practi
cal method of getting "the John
Day project built quickly in con
formance with the comprehensive
Columbia River development plan
of the Corps of Engineers to help
meet urgent power needs of the
Pacific Northwest and improve
navigation.
"We are very much interested
in seeing the John Day project
built promptly because it means
more power for the region and will
help meet the needs of the 600,000
customers who look to us for their
electric service requirements.
"There is every reason to be
lieve that the $273,000,000 needed
for construction of the power facili
ties at John Day can be supplied
to the government by power dis
tributors of the area if Congress
will act to make this possible. Since
the power investment represents
nearly 90 per cent of the total esti
mated cost of the project, the pro
posed plan of financing would as
sure a rapid and efficient con
struction program.
"It is definitely understood that
participation in the plan is open
to any electric system, public or
pivale, that is ready and willing
to advance funds to help get the
project built: Each participant
would snare proportionately in the
power produced at the dam during
me pay-out period.
"If necessary, the companies we
represent are willing to undertake
to put up the full $273,000,000 need
ed for the power development. It
should be made clear, however,
that the amount of power we may
obtain would depend entirely upon
the volume of applications made to
the Federal Power Commission by
other responsible utilities seeking
to participate in the program.

Helser Hearing
Nearing an End
SAN' FRANCISCO (UP)-Attor-
nej-j lor the J. Henry Helse Com-
pany was expected to go to Fed.
eral Judge Louis E. Goodman for,
decision. j
The Securities Exchange Com-1
mission, which brought the charges
against the company, was asked
by Goodman yesterday just what
action was expected of the court.'
SEC counsel' Frank Kennamer
said that if the judge found that
the SEC charges of fraud and mis
representation practiced by Helser
were true, he should issue an in
junction prohibiting such practices.
Then if the company violated the
injunction, Kennamer said, the
EC could revoke its registration.
In summing up the SEC case,
Kennamer said, "It is necessary
tor tne court to issue an order en-
joining the J. Henry Helser Com-1
pany from untruthful representa
tions that the company provides a
personalized service to its clients." I
He also asked Goodman to order !
the I company to refrain from
"block selling" client securities
and "margining accounts indis
criminately." The judge said that the SEC
regulations appeared to him not
to cover the Helser operations.
"I think you fellows had bettor
get the statute amended," Good
man said. "It seems to me that
such an order as you seek would
have the effect of making me a
second vice-president of the Hel
ser Company in charge of opera
tions.
