Power to Come
From Columbia
DEVELOPMENT OF UMATILLA
RAPIDS NECESSARY
Relief From High Railroad Charge»
May Come From Using Latent
Electric Power
Advocate of the Umatilla rapids
project will be interested In the fol
lowing clipping from a New York
.tory dealing with the value of rail
road electrification:
“Electrification of the railroads Is
today one of the big questions bear
ing upon Industrial progress. If
electrification is feasible, as every
one of the installations made to date
indicates, it offers a means of realiz
ing the economies necessary to over
come the oppressive and burdensome
transportation situation which hind
ers industrial readjustment and trade
expansion through excessive cost of
service and Inadequacy.
“The use of electric locomotives
will conserve the fuel supply. In
crease the practical speed of both
freight and passenger trains, permit
the handling of longer trains with
correspondingly greater capacity
and obviously, bring about certain
car-mile economies and in general
expedite the operation of trains.
These advantages are <jBite generai-
'y and the use of eloctrlc locomotives
has been gaining steadily in the fav
or of American railroad men and In
the favor of public us well.”
The argument for 'eletriflcation
tppllcs with particular force in the
west and especially the northwest.
Wo have the latent power In this
region and while we let It go to
waste the railroads haul In expensive
coal from distant states.
The problem is how to got our
power developed. It Is evident that
tf we wait for the railroads to devel-
tnpe power through private capital
apd chiefly or solely for railroad use
we will wait a long time. Tho
'•oads do not have the money. Besides
power is needed for other purposes
islde from transportation and it is
scarcely fair to expect the railroads
to carry the load alone. The Uma
tilla rapids project would be as val
uable for irrigation as for railroad
electrification. It. would Improve
lavlgation on Ute Columbia. We
cannot expect private capital to in
dtilge In river Improvement. That
is a governmental duty. Ne-ther
Is it the habit for private capital to
carry out big Irrigation projects such
as is contemplated In connection with
the rapids project. The United States
government hue Inken over reclama
tion work of this character.
Then what could be more logical
than for the government to act,
either alone or through help of the
states interested, towards develop
ing power on the Columbia? If it
is to take such action where is (here
a project so admirable aH the Umatil
la rapids project with which Io start?
The Umatilla rapids power site Is
having an engineering report pre
pared with a view to showing what
can be done through development of
power at this site. The data Is not
yet ready hut facts so fir ascertain
ed are very pleasing and give promise
that when the findings are all com
piled we will have a splendid case
to work with. It Is an ambitious
thing to say but there Is sound rea
son for the belief that If the country
will harken soon to the Umatilla rap
ids project association it will find
the key not only lo one of the big
transportation problems but also to
the door that now hides the north
west's greatest unused natural as
