"The National Hells Canyon As sociation is just 4 years late," Sentaor Guy Cordon told a Mor row county audience here last Thursday night. Speaking to some 75 persons In the court house, Senator Cor don explained how he introduced an amendment in the spring of 1950 to authorize construction of the Hells Canyon dam. "That was the time when they should have had a Hells Canyon Association", he said. The senator told how his am endment was killed on a motion of Senator Dennis Chavez of New Mernico "with every left-winger in the senate except one voting to kill it; Senator Morse to his credit voted with his colleagues at that time." Senator Cordon said, "after that, on two different occasions I hey trjed to get a Hells Canyon authorization in the house. . . and failed. I tried to get that dam when we had a chance to get it. We could have done it; we should have done it. It does not make any difference to me who builds the dam. I want it built. I just don't see how you could get the federal money for it today; it'd never get through the house. But I'd vote again for the building of Hells Canyon by the Bureau of Reclamation." Taking a suggestion from his wife, who accompanied him on this leg of the campaign tour, Senator Cordon build an "off-the cuff speech around suggestions asked earlier by his audience. He explained how a special title in the farm act passed by the 83rd congress provides incentive pay ments to increase the production of wool to a hoped-for 300 mil lion pounds annually. Answering the question "Why are we getting so much lumber from Canada?" Senator Cordon drew laughter from his audience when he said, "That's simple. It's because the price of lumber in the United States is higher than that for lumber from Canada." The Senator then took a ser ious vein and said, "Why that is 1 cannot say. There are people in the State departent whose thinking I cannot understand. But as far as I'm concerned, I pro tect the products in this country." Senator Cordon went on to ex plain that he favors reciprocal trade agreements, and "tariffs were necessary" to protect home industries and their jobs.

He went on to ex plain how Bonneville administra tors have interpreted the law "precisely opposite" to the way it reads. The law specified that until 1942 one-half of all power from Bonneville be held for pub- lie bodies). "But the Bonneville Administration interpreted it precisely the opposite," the Sena tor said. "They ordered that all the power was to be held for public bodies all the time." Senator Cordon then went on to explain how this ruling by past administrations has worked against Oregon where 85 per cent of all power users are ser ved by private utilities. "Twice this state has voted on the question of state public power and turned it down," he said. "I believe in majority rule. Any time the majority wants public power, I'm for it. It's up to the people to say. My critics seem to believe in minority rule." Oregon's senior senator closed his speech by stating his views on universal military training. "We're going to have to have trained soldiers on our right hand in these times," he said. "I want to see it in the schools, close to home. I don't want to see a man on horseback arise in this country; but we need train ing." Senator Cordon was introduced by J. O. Turner, Heppner attor ney, former member of the Ore gon legislature. The speech at the court house followed an in formal dinner meeting at which there were about 35 persons in attendance. Six New Street Lights Ordered Here The Heppner council this week ordered installation of six ad ditional street lights in various sections of the town to eliminate dangerous dark spots on several streets.

An other large light was ordered for north Main street at the end of the bridge over Willow creek and also on west Willow street at the entrance of the ally between Main and Chase streets. The group also plans to have the power company remove either one or both of the regular lights at the corner of May and Court streets in front of the court house as the recently installed large mercury vapor light in the new safety island provides ample light on the corner.
