Progress Noted
In Ratification
Of River Treaty
Washington-(UPI)-U.S. and
Canadian negotiators are mak
ing good progress in talks aim
ed at eventual Canadian ratifi
cation of the Columbia River
Treaty, Sen. Mike Mansfield (D
Mont.) said Wednesday.
The Senate majority leader
revealed that members of the
International Joint Commission
and senators from Montana,
Idaho, Oregon and Washington
had been meeting secretly in his
office.
"Negotiations are going along
very satisfactorily between us
and the Canadian authorises,"
he said.
Mansfield sharply rejected
suggestions that the United
States give up hope of Canadian
ratification and go it alone on
plans for development of the
Columbia river and its tribu
taries. The latest suggestion that the
United States move ahead on its
own was made by Earl Coe,
Washington State director of
conservation.
In Disagreement
"I am in disagreement with
Mr. Coe," Mansfield said.
"We think that progress is be
ing made," he said. "We do not
want to see the fruits of our ne
gotiations swept into the dis
card."
The Montana Democrat said
U.S. officials were proceeding
on the assumption that differ
ences between Ottawa and the
provincial government of British
Columbia would be ironed out.
The differences have blocked
ratification of the treaty by the
Canadian Parliament. The U.S.
Senate approved it two years
ago.
Canadian External Affairs
Minister Paul Martin also was
expected to discuss the treaty
with Secretary of State Dean
Rusk during Martin's scheduled
trip here late this week.
The treaty would provide for
joint development of the river
and its tributaries to the benefit
of both countries. It calls for the
construction of three large stor
age dams in British Columbia.
Canada would be paid for down
stream flood control benefits
and for Increased power produc
tion at U.S. dams resulting from
better regulation of the river.
Cash, Power Payments
Compensation to Canada prob
ably would take the form of
cash payment for flood control
benefits and the delivery of a
block of power in return for
benefits.
Mansfield's comments drew
the support of Sen. Lee Metcalf
(D-Mont.) and sen. warren i.
Magnuson (D-Wash.). Metcalf
noted that Canadian permission
was needed for construction of
the $325 million Libby dam. The
dam, if constructed as origin
ally planned, would back water
into Canada.
Metcalf said he would revive
an earlier proposal that the dam
be built in two stages if an
agreement with Canada is not
reached. The first stage of the
dam could be built without
flooding across the border.
"However, the mutual bene
fits of the treaty are such that
we should exercise patience for
at least a few more weeks,"
Metcalf said. He noted that elec
tions are being held this month
in British Columbia.
