S Eisenhower On Water Resources Not Yet Formulated By A. Robert Smith Mall Tribune Correspondent Washington President Elsen hower passed up the opportunity afforded him at the Seattle con ference of governors to make clear the administration's point of view on water resource de velopment because no policy has yet been formulated. The president made this much clear in a special message to Congress Just before 1 the law makers adjourned a message which went virtually unreported at the time because it got swal lowed up in the final rush of business on Capitol Hill. "This administration is mov ing ahead in the formulation of sound organization and improv ed policies for the use our soil, our public lands and our water resources," Eisenhower told Con gress. But he went on to say the policies were still in the works. "A review is being made of the basic power policies of the federal government in connec tion with multiple-purpose river basin development as it relates to private economic develop ment. The Corps of Engineers is making a study of the basis for state and local financial par ticipation in local flood-protec tion works. There are under de tailed study various proposals for dealing with the complicated problems of overlapping and du plicate authority among the sev eral resource-development agen cies," the president said. ' This explains why, on his first visit to the resource-conscious Pacific Northwest since assum ing the presidency, Eisenhower did not speak out the course his administration is charting in this important field. The special message, Elsen hower said, was for the purpose of having Congress "focus at tention on some of our basic land and water resources prob lems and to point the way for constructive efforts to improve the management of these resources." Eisenhower recalled that in his state of the union address in January he had "Indicated to Feldman & Olson's See New QlR-talevision D).YV,Jil7LJm V7,I j nn Jr fi2-: 111 I i Wvi AT S 1 . tmmm jCjf f 17-bcfc Wayaa Hr-i Mi lowest priced ICA Victor tlvMo yoa con buy and what a buy It III M'l 5 way finer for 'S3 . . . hi a cabkMl flnMwd In rich arooii.

FELDMAN & OLSON ELECTRIC STORE 237 EAST MAIN MEDFORD the need for a strong federal program" and "at the same time pointed to the necessity for a coonerative Dartnershin of the states and local communities, private citizens, and the federal government in carrying out a sound natural resource pro gram." , The president went on: "In addition to the immediate danger of waste resulting from inadequate conservation mea sures, we must bear in mind the needs of a growing population and an expanding economy. At present we are faced with excess reserves of some agricultural commodities and the need for production adjustments to gear our agricultural economy to cur rent demands. "But in the long run, we shall need to give increased attention to the improvements and recla mation of land in its broadest aspect, Including soil produc tivity, irrigation, drainage, and the replenishing of ground-water reserves, if we are adequate ly to feed and clothe our people, to provide gainful employment, and to continue to Improve our standard of living.. "Our basic problem is to carry forward the tradition of conser vation, improvement and wise use and development of our land and water resources a policy initiated 50 years ago under the leadership of President Theo dore Roosevelt. "To do this within the frame work of a sound fiscal policy and in the light of defense needs will require the maximum co operation among the states and local communities, farmers, busi nessmen, and other private citi zens, and the federal govern ment. It will require the devel opment of clear guidelines to be established by the Congress as to the proper functions of the federal government. It will re quire adherence to sound prin ciples for the financing and the sharing of the cost of multiple- purpose land and water resource development It will require im proved federal organization to accomplish a more logical divi sion of responsibilities among the various federal agencies in order that resource development programs may be carried on with the greatest efficiency and the least duplication. And it will require comprehensive river ba sin planning with cooperation of state and local interests."
