Not Serious
PORTLAND Wl The Weather
Bureau took a look at the Pacific
Northwest precipitation figures and
said Saturday there was some pos
sibility of local flooding but prob
ably no general Hooding this
spring. . , - , . , .
It is still too early, though, to
Issue any specific forecasts, the

It added that In general, there
could be some local flooding on
the Okanogan, Lower Kootenai,
Payette, Boise and Big Wood Riv

and precipitation In the next three
months. .
February precipitation was be
low normal' over most of the Col

normal and that in the Rogue,

Hells Canyon Dam In Snake River Looms
As Major Test Of Public vs. Private
Power in US; Idaho Solons On Negative
By JOHN KAMPS
WASHINGTON W The govern,
ment seems to be Uie underdog In a
battle shaping up here over a phase
of public vs. private power.
The first round will be fouuht
March 26-31 at hearing a House
committee has scheduled on a bill
to authorise construction ol Hells
Canyon Dam In the Siinke River,
on the Idaho-Oregon border.
The government will be In Its
unusual underdog role because both
of Idaho's representatives oppose
the dam and neither of its sena
tors ia yet supporting the propositi.
The dam would be In tho con
gressional District represented by
Dr.-John T. Wood (R.-Idnhol, who
Is against It and will light it.
Usually a local bill's
quires approval of congressmen hi
me. District involved.
Idaho's other representative,
Hamer Budge. R), also Is against
the bill, and he's a member of tho
Ulterior ttubcommitm hnlHinir ih
hearings.
wood sees the Hells Cam-on nro-
posal as an "insidious and sinister"
attempt by the Socialist-leaning ad
ministration" to set no a "imvfr
state" in Idaho.
Through this power state. Wood
declares, the government "would
market power In competition with
private facilities, interfere with the
right of privnto power companies
ui ouiid aams oi meir own at pri
vate expense and spend the tax
payers' money to furUier the in
terests of federal power over pri
vate power."
Budge savs he will flcht the nrnt.
ect because "it seriously Uireatens
present and future irrigation"
along the Snake River Vallcv.
"The bill does nothing for irriga
tion," Budge adds, "It definitely
threatens water rlchts which have
been established for 50 venrs. The
people cannot live without Irriga
tion in my district. If the water Is
taken away, my district will be
nothing but sagebrush and I'll have
only Jackrtibbits as constituents."
Sen. Welker R.-Idnho takes a
dim. view of the bill In its present
lorm because "it fals to guarantee

pected to look with more favor on

to eliminate Uie undeslrnbla fea
tures." Welker also questions the adyta
ability of spending moncv on "a
huge fedcrul project" at this time.
Sen. Dworshak (R.-Idnho) la with
holding his decision until he gets
an engineering report on an niter
unto proposal Mountain Sheep
Dam, about 60 miles downstream
from Hells Canyon, near where Uie
Salmon River enters Uie Himkrt.
All four members of Idaho's con
gressional group say their mall is
overwhelmingly against Hells Can
yon Dam. Wood auys 80 to 00 per
cent of those who write him are
against It and Btidgo sava only a
few huvo written to approve It.
The two Say they have received
more Uian 3,000 letters on Uie sub
ject. -
A bitter opponent of Uie project
is the Idaho Power Co., whose of
ficials declare Hells Canvon Dam
would cost one billion dollars, send
Idaho power out of the slate and
Hood the sites of five dams which
the company urouoses to build.
These dnms, they say, would pro-
auce more power man the govern
ment plant.
Tho compnny's request for a per
mit to build one ol the dnms in
the Hells Canyon Reservoir site

rower commission. . . .
Until last week it looked as If the
Reclamation Bureau would be
fighting a lone battle on the Hells
Canyon Issue. .
Then Sen. Morse (R.-Orei.i In
troduced a companion Hells Can
yon bill In the Senate, serving no
tice he would be In the govern
ment's corner In the Hells Canyon
bout.
The government wants to build
the world's hluhest dum in a steep
sloped Rorue mldwnv between Lew
iston and Wclser, Idnho. It would
tower 740 feet, compared with
Hoover Dam's 726.4 feet. 11 would
be of the same concrete arch type
as Hoover.
Reclamation Bureau engineers
estimated a year ago the dam
would cost about $356,810,000. but
the figure would be higher now
since construction costs have In
creased. The government says ' the dam
should be built as soon as poslble
to provide power needed for de
fense industries In the Northwest.
The (Inm would be deslitned to
add 1,430,000 kilowatts o( power.
This includes 732.000 kilowatts pro
duced nt Hells Canyon, with the
remainder provided downstream
through river regulation at Hells
Canyon.
The bill would reserve 300.000
kilowatts of Hells Canyon power
lor use In Idaho, providing the
state sets up a qualfled agency to
handle lt.
The Reclamation Bureau denies
the dam would threaten irrigation
It says 25 per cent of the river's
low flow would be reserved lor Ir
rigation. On the other hand. It says,
