12A MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Thursday, May 22, 1958 r . k Pacific Northwest Editor Favors New Federal Power Corporation Washington ffl A Pa- ific Northwest editor said Wednesday he favors creation a new federal power cor poration for the area. But he warned that it should not be allowed to become a "re- pource-s mothering super- Bgency. Herbert Lundy, editor of the ditorial page of the Portland Oregonian, told a Senate hearing that his newspaper eupports, with reservations, a bill to reorganize the Bonne ville Power administration in the form of a government cor poration to be known as the Columbia River Development Corporation. Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D-Ore.) introduced the measure last Jan. 23 on behalf of the Northwest Public Power association. Lundy testified as the Sen ate public works subcommit tee on rivers and harbors opened hearings on the over all administration of North west power. Strong Agency Asked Lundy said his newspaper advocates the formation of a federal organization which would "meet more adequate a regional responsibility not only for power 'but for the maintenance and enhance ment of the fishery and rec reation affected by dam build ing: "Only a regionwide agency with planning authority super seding that of local utilities, state and federal agencies in the field of power will be strong enough to do the job,' he said. However, Lundy added that "for the protection of persons and property . . . this legisla tion must be so drafted that a regional corporation cannot become a resource-smothering, super-agency." The editor said the function of the proposed new agency should not be to "starve a part of the region while overfeed ing another part." Safeguards Said Lacking He said that as presently drafted the Neuberger bill does not contain safeguards against inequitable distribu tion of Columbia river basin power. Gus Norwood, executive secretary of the Northwest Public Power association, was asked by Neuberger if he would have any objection to provisions in the bill calling for a "fair distribution" of power on a geographic basis "to prevent charges of monopoly." Norwood said he opposed this approach because it might prevent private enterprises from "locating in the area of their choice." ' "We should not create a situation in which some gov ernment bureaucrat could tell private companies where they would have to settle in order to get power," he said.
