ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Washington Correspondent Washington-Power politics, that hardy perennial in the Pacific Northwest, is rearing its head once again with re spect to the Hanford reactor project a n u the Snake Vt river dam dis ' j p u I e, and 'ffr t h r e atoning , t the region .-7 i with needless . 1 economic dis- tress. When the House last 111' KUJ WCCk dcfeat' Smltu eu me iiiosl recent, proposal for generating 800,000 KW at (he Hanford works, it was a victory for the private utility forces who vigorously, but never openly, opposed it. ln a sense this was a repeat of what happened lost year, when the House three times declined lo authorize the fed eral government to build such an alomic power plant. Last year the electric utility indus try at large opposed it, with the aid nf the coal industry's lobby, hul Northwesl power companies remained neutral. This year, when "Washing ton Pacific Power Supply System, an organinlion com posed of IB PUDs in Washing ton state, offered lo build the generating plant at Hanford with private money, the util ity industry had the aid of the private power companies from the Pacific Northwest in scuttling it. All Pacific Northwest mem bers of Congress of both parties favored the construc tion of this unique power plant, especially since none of their colleagues could call it a federal spending project. Rut the utility and coal lob bies were effective in round ing up a honvier vole than last year (2fi:MI)2) against it. On Capitol Hill it is as sumed that tiie Northwest utilities opposed it behind the scenes because they wanted to prevent WPPSS from getting into business us a power gen erating organization. Four private companies -Pacific Power and hight. Washington Water Power, Portland General Electric and Montana Power - are locked in a tough fight with WPPSS before the Federal ; Power Commission where either side is seeking a license to build a major dam on the Snake river. Recause nf the possibility of court proceed ings to test the FPC's ultimate decision, this is expected to be a long and expensive fight. Already WPPSS has spent a million dollars on the case, and yet It is still only a paper organization. The private utilities hope to keep it a paper organization by pre venting WPPSS from going Into business as a generating utility at Hanford This is Iho apparent reason for the lack of support for the H:mfnrH lirnii'rl from Ihe power companies, even aner the project was modified so as to guarantee them at least half the power output under long-term power contracts. Udall Intercedes Meanwhile, Interior Secre tary Stewart Udall. who had hoped the Hanford project would go through this year, has Interceded against both sides the Snake river dispute by proposing that the federal government build high Moun tain Sheep dam. This has made WPPSS and other pub lic power groups angry bp cause WPPSS wants to build Ncz Perce dam instead; and the power companies are sore because they want to build Mounlnin Sheep dam. This is a very touchy ques tion politically. None of the three senators from Ihe North west who are up for reelection this year has endorsed Udall's position. Sen. Wayne Morse says Udall should continue with his crash fishery re search program instead of giving up the possibility of building Nez Perce. The point here is thai with out solid Noryiwesl support for federal construction of high Mountain Sheep dam, it stands less char.ee than the Hanford project of being ap proved by Congress. As a consequence of these powerful conflicting forces, the prospect of steady growth of the region's economy based on plentiful cheap energy is being threatened by the con tinuation of power politics. result of "the most successful which missionary effort in the , tenets world?" basic One, says Prof. Littell once had distinctive now find their most all tai.iniTG fiontpH hv i churches members who apparently feel view, is the fact that millions racial prejudices of an -ernaps me most oasic ui.iuij m""'" w., , I vfl i,itt Ireland The station p r o b 1 e m , confronting church clinging to the sexual K flavik Icel-nd T i s n wide-spread religious illi'ter-1 under no obligation either to of their members have taken I baptized society.'
