ROBERT SMITH Mill Troon Correspoaaeot V. ashirg-nn Prospects of the House of representatives pass ing tl Hells Canyon dam bill before Con gress adjourns ftobt Smiu i " " nouse, however, is traditionally more consfvative than is the Senate, especially on large public works undertakings tt ith a bis federal price tag. Southwestern senators have twice put fiiair Central Ari zona project bill through the upper chamber only to see it net rijhts issue which the adminis tration is pressing. Iri.ho Power's renunciation of its tax privileges the night be fore the Senate voted seemed to come too late to be most effec tive in eliminating that as a look anything ! talking point against private de but favorable velopment of Hells Canyon. It is for the backers doubtful that this will have as of the high dam much influence on the House as who successful-1 it had on the Senate, ly put itj The big question in the House through tl a j will be what will most conserva Senate lat tive southern Democrats do? If Speaker Sam Rayburn cracks the whip and makes it a party is sue, as seems likely, he will line up a good number of them, un less some unusual circumstances prevail at the moment. Pleased with Support Some contend that the main reason southern senators voted for Hells Canyon in greater num stalled in the Boue, mostly duejbers this year than last is that to opposition from California s j they were pleased with the sup- big congressional dlralion. me : port they had received the previ Senate hit i;sS4 the frryingpan Arkansas project for Colorado in the past, but the House has re fused. And the Upper Colorado storage project, which breezed through the Senate, squeaked through the House after a tough battle. Advert Reaction Most observers aree that two factors influenced the favorable vote this year, as compared with Its defeat last year of Hells Can yon. They were adverse reaction to the Idaho Power Co.'s fast tax write-off, and the reaction of touthern senators over the civil ous day from a group of western Democrats in their effort to send the civil rights bill to committee. Others think it was because the southerners were sore at the ad ministration for pressing the civil rights bill, and Hells Canyon was a good issue on which to embar rass the administration. But assuming the southerners are passing out favors to their friends in the civil rights fight, the person who stands in the strongest position to gain in the House is the one western con gressman who stood with the South against the s civil rights bill. He is Rep Hamer Budge, ! the Idaho Republican w ho is the hardest working foe of the Hells Canyon dam bill. Understanding Claimed Budge is among those who claim that Sen. Wayne Morse land Sen. Warren G. Magnuson and other western Democrats had some understanding with the southerners to trade votes on civ il rights for Hells Canyon. But when asked whether he might I now cash in on the same sort of trade. Budge denies any such mo- tives in his vote against the civil rights bill. ; ' I'd never vote for a civil j rights bill without a jury trial i provision," he explained. "Why a jury trial is an American as the hot dog stand." The Eisenhower administra tion opposed the jury trial amendment which southern seg regationists had tried to insert in the bill. In the end the Hells Canyon bill may be passed or defeated by some momentary current that is running through the more sensi tive House, whose 435 members are harder to control by their party leaders than are the 96 senators.
