alifornian Seeks To Block Consideration of Power Priority Bill
Kennedy's Signature Sets Tone for Western Trip
Washington-IUM-Rep. Craig
Hosmer (R-Cali.) sought to
day to block a proposal for
rpecding consideration of the
Tacific Northwest Power pri
ority bill in the House Interior
Committee.
Hosmer protested the an
nounced intent of Interior
Commitcc Chairman Wayne
N. Aspinall (D-Colo.) to take
the bill up for full committee
consideration without further
hearings by its reclamation
subcommittee.
The California Republican
said he still had pending a re

I' witnesses who appeared be
fore the subcommittee in
June.
I He charged that testimony
j of tiie witness had been "hur
ried over during a brief ses
sion" of the subcommittee on
the bill designed to pave the
way for construction of trans
mission lines to connect fed
eral power systems in the Pa
cific Northwest and Cali
fornia. The legislation, which would
give the Pacific Northwest
first call on federal power
produced in the area, was
passed by the Senate despite
Republican objections that il
would destroy a policy of
granting preference to public
power agencies throughout
the country.
Hosmer, in a letter to Aspi
nall. said' the legislation ap
peared merely to grant a
super - preference to certain
private consumers in the Pa
cific Northwest but that it
actually had "much broader
implications." i
The legislation, he said,
"should not be rushed through I
the committee without full
and thorough evaluation." !
He demanded a chance to
continue questioning of Jo
seph C. Swidler, chairman of
the Federal Power Commis
sion; Charles Luce, adminis
trator of the Bonneville pow
er administration; Gus Nor
wood, executive secretary of
the Northwest Public Power
Association, and Norman
Clapp, administrator of the
Rural Electrification Adminis
tration. ,

Washington -lUPIi- President
Kennedy set the tone today
for his Western tour by prais
ing members of Congress who
fight for major water resource
projects as contributory to the
entire nation and not merely
a region.
Kennedy leaves early Fri
day for what has been de
scribed as a non-political in
spection trip to water re
sources projects in South
Dakota, Colorado and Cali
fornia. In a' large White House
ceremony today, Kennedy
signed a bill authorizing a
S170 million project to help
irrigate the Arkansas River
Basin and improve supplies
of drinking water and elec
tricity to an area of more
than half of Colorado.
While his trip is billed by
the White House as non-political,
there will be inevitable
political overtones as the chief
executive greets Democratic
incumbents and candidates.
To counter this political in
dication, the White House
points out that ranking Re
publican incumbents in some
areas also will be greeted by
the President.
Kennedy, flying in an Air
Force jet transport, will take
off at 5:30 a.m. (PST) for

American To Be First on Moon,
U.S. Space Officials Declare
Washington-OJPH -Top U.S.
space officials today stuck
firmly to their prediction that
the first man to set foot on
the moon would be an Ameri
can, despite Russia's twin cos
monaul accomplishment.
They pictured the Soviet
feat as a "baby step" which
told nothing about who would
win in the hard running of
the space race.
James E. Webb, head of the
National Aeronautics and
Space Administration, said he
would change his forecast only
if Russia started using next
month something like the
giant Saturn booster that
America hopes to have in
service in two or three years.
He conceded that while the
U.S. space effort is fast paced,
it is not a crash program. He
said an extra $1 to $2 billion
a year could be spent but
would speed progress only
slightly and might hinder
military projects.
