Marc IHI Today's Roundup By MALCOLM KPLI V CONGRESSMAN' LOWELL STOCKMAN con tinue to extract comment from the Interior department on It Idea for tapping Northwestern riven (or thirsty California areas. The latest contribution to this discussion cornea from Secretary Julius Krux. and expands to some extent previous Interior depart ment comment on this subject which Is vitally Important to the Klamath basin. To so back a little: Some time no William Waroe of the Inter ior department made a speech envisioning a "ladder to the rioith" from Southern California, taking water from each stream as required to supply the a ater-short Southland. When asked for ErLET further details, he remarked that "In the ultimata project, water Imported from other river basins to the north would be available to Klamath river water users if needed to replace or supplement Klamath river water diverted to California." Mr. Stockman then wanted to know what basins to the north he consider available as suppliers. This week. Secretary Krug replied to this question, a follows: 1 would be glad to discuss In some detail other stream basins In addition to the Klamath river which might supply some ot the water needed In California. Unfortunately, however, the bureau of reclamation has barely started lu united western reconnaissance studies, and very little data are presently available on this subject. The Idea was conceived primarily to utilise excess flows of the Pacific coastal streams, such as the Rogue and TJmpqua rivers, and If necessary the Columbia river, diverting them southward to areas in need of addi tional Irrigation and municipal water supplies. What ever course such a diversion may take, other water sheds will need to be crossed en route and possi bilities" exist tor picking op additional excess flows In these intermediate watersheds. Studies are being snade to determine the practicability ot using the waters of the Intermediate streams In order to Insure that no potential source of water has been neglected In evolving the ultimate plan. "Results ot the present reconnaissance studies will give some Indication of the potential supply from various sources, the potential water demands and vsJue of water of the service areas under considera tion, and the economic and engineering feasibility of various routes and plans. "Two point in connection with these studies cannot be too strongly emphasised; first, that we are interested only In utilizing water which would not be needed In the basin or basins of origin, and second, that our studies to data are In the earliest stage and are designed only to determine whether some such diversion plan might have engineering and eronnmlf feasibility to decide whether more de tailed studies are warranted at this time. "The connected, coordinated operation of the Pa cific coastal streams of California and Oregon would snaka possible maximum utilisation of the water re sources of all those stream by assuring water users In all affected watersheds of security against ex treme water shortage. "1 believe that eventually the tremendous dis charge ot the Pacific Coast streams can be utilized for the benefit of all water users from Seattle to San Diego, and Indirectly, for such remote points as Reno, Salt Lake City, and Denver." velopment In our region otherwise beyond the limit of our water supply? Do we want to submit to an over-all suit-only over these resources, or keep the authority and tit re sources separate and distinct althln our own natural drainage area? These and other questions deserve our attention NOW while the Ideas are being shaped. Meanwhile, residents of Northwest basins are raising the que, tlon as to whether the Northwest will not develop so rapidly in the nest few years that It will utilise all the water available before the g.ganllc system could materialise. These Days Many Question THB picture presented Is on of a huge. Integrated system of West Coast rivers, tied together by man-made cans Is and tunnels, with the water sup P'T allocated and managed by some central authority (federal, of course) according to the needs, demands and probably the political pressures of the various basin subdivisions. ; Every tub-area which would be Included In this sjlant scheme needs to examine Its every implica tion. We In the Klamath basin must look Into such questions as these: : Would it improve our situation In view of the presence already In this basin of a supply of water for extensive Irrigation expansion? ' How would we stack up In the Integrated system In case ot a shortage of supply for the greatly expanded water use then In effect? What would It do to wildlife resources depending on water supply? Would such a plan make possible land use de- llv CiKOKl'E K. SOKOLSKV BE1NO neither a Catholic nor a Protestant, I recognise In the current controversy among Christians, not only In this country but throughout the world, a menace to our civilisation, an undermin ing of our way of life, an Invitation to Marxian amorality to fill a void. It might perhaps be said conversely that the controversy Is. In Itself, an Index to the vitality of Christianity, as men would not quarrel over or strive against what Is no longer Important The danger, however. Is that In the quarrel among religions and sects, often It Is not the particular groups that are being attacked, but the target is Ood: the object to be eradicated Is moral law; and the oncoming generation are fed the pabulum of materialism and Immorality, food which, to those who are without moral or spiritual disci pline, can be sweet as Manna. The Bard en bill now before congress Is part of the Christian controversy. The bill provides a vast pro gram ot federal aid to state education without re gard to the necessities of any particular state. It definitely discriminates against all but state schools. Its assumption Is that government money should, for all purposes, go only to government schools, and that those children who are sent to Catholic. Luth eran. Jewish or other parochial schools or to other private and Independent schools do so with out benefit of government aid. No mention Is made ot the fact that parents who send their children to other than stale schools also pay taxes to pay tor the state schools and that whatever funds are to be spent under the Barden bill are. In part, contributed by the W.0O0.000 Catholics In this country through federal taxes as well as by others who do not send their children to government schools. Attacks The Child THE bill, while aimed at the Roman Caihoue church and lu school system, attacks the Ameri can child. For it ought to be an axiom that a benefit provided any child under the law ought to be available for all children. If the law gives a child a bottle of milk or a drink of orange Juice each day, any American child, no matter what school his parents select, should be provided milk or orance Juice. No American child should be made deliber ately underprivileged by act of congress. No child should grow up under the stigma of secondary citizenship because of the faith of his fathers. Throughout the world a controversy now rages between Marxism and those who believe In Ood. Hitler .focused his religious antipathies upon the Jews. He sought to destroy them as a religion. Hitler was also anti-Catholic and anti-Protestant because he wanted the Germans to regard him as a man-Ood and he hated the competition from heaven. The communist challenge to Ood U deeper. Their Mimim philosophy, which forms the basts of their matertalistic-slav society, rejects the concept of the Inalienable lights of the Individual man which are beyond the authority of the state. The Christian and It Is Jewish and Moslem-concept that Ood created man and Inspirited him with the holy spirit, and gave him a soul which Is Indestructible end which will withstand any force that man and the state set against It this Idea can destroy the autocracy of Stalin and the slave concept of Soviet Ism. They Fight God SO they fight religion as such and they fight It everywhere and over every Issue. In Poland. Czechoslovakia and Hungary, It is easier to fight Catholics than Protestants. In the Ukraine. Lith uania and Poland, they have already fought the Jews. In Germany, they will, when they are ready fight Protestantism. It does not matter to them what the faith Is called they fight Ood. I" the United States, the battle Is disguised. They diCOTCT the normal disagreements among the be lievers In Ood and accentuate them. Thus, they have devoted 20 years to establish anti-Semitism In the United States and many Jews and Jewish organizations, some wholly Innocent, became their dupes to their own damage. They are now engaged In accentuating the cleavage between Catholic and Protestants-end both may become so bitter In the controversy and so vindictive and vituperative a to forget that the target la Ood In whom both believe.
