'There Is a sincere and far reaching difference of opinion on these bills in the northwest", William M. Tugman of the Eugene Register-Guard fold the committee considering the Smith-Bone bills. "We want this committee to consider all the complex factors involved." The Bonneville power admin istration meddles in local poli tics, Tugman said, and should the Columbia authority be cre ated there might be a tendency toward control of municipally operated plants. Public ownership of utilities, Tugman declared, should "grow from the ground up and not be handed to yoif top down." FRIANT DAM POURING FAR AHEAD OF PLAN Sacramento, June 17.
