Engineer Says Hells Benefits Hinge On Lagging Program By JOHN KAMFS ' ' I WASHINGTON Wl A former Army engineer said Thursday ben efits from the proposed federal Hells Canyon TJam depend on a 2 2 billion dollar government con struction program for the Colum bia River Basin which will fall far behind schedule for economy rea sons. ' T. M. Robins, retired major gen eral and former division engineer at Portland, Ore., challenged ben efits claimed , for the proposed Snake River dam at a Power Com mission hearing on Idaho Power Co.'s applications to build three QUICKLY KNITTED 596 Knitted for the smallest of the sun. sand and air devotees, this very small one-piece play suit is 1 done in kitten-soft zephyr baby yarn for sizes 2, 4, and 6 years.

Fort Rock smaller dams in the same area along the Idaho-Oregon border. Robins said he doubted the fed eral projects in the Columbia Riv er Basin could be completed on schedule because "I don't see how they possibly could get appropria tions irom Congress in view of the present drive to balance the bud get during the trend for economy." Some of the projects in the Ar my Engineer plan for the basin are complete, others are unaer construction. Some are authorized but have received no appropriations. Robins said major flood control reservoirs in the Army Engineer master control plan would be Hells Canyon, John Day, Payette, Boise, Palisades, Priest Rapids, Grand Coulee, Libby, Glacier View and Hungry Horse. He estimated those projects and others in the plan, plus power transmission facilities, would cost 2 ',2billion dollars. Idaho Power contends Its pro- nosed 133-m!U!on-dollar setiesvt three dams would be superior to the 400-million-dollar federal Hells Canyon Dam because the latter's power and other benefits depend on construction ol all tne ovner proj ects. ' Robins said Idaho Power's plan would provide exactly the same navigation benefits as the federal proposal. He declared some navigation benefits named for the big dam "are highly theoretical." Public power proponents have claimed the federal Hells Canyon Dam would make navigation pos sible above the reservoir U. would form. Robins said this benefit would be of little or no value because. the reservoir's level would flue tuate 282 feet vertically and the 90-mile long reservoir would shrink SO miles at times. Benefits claimed for making pos sible the shipping of ore and con centrates upstream "cannot be Justified or claimed as a benefit to the general public," the gen eral said. Turning to flood control, Robins said Hells Canyon Dam, operating with other future projects, would not play "too much part" In the master control plan. He said it would lo . ei the floor stage down stream less than one foot. Operating alone and without res ervoirs which haven't bee'n con structcd, the Hells Canyon Dam would provide "no flood control at all," he said. Robins submitted data showing that the Snake River does the least flooding of any major Columbia tributary. He blamed the Salmon and Clearwater rivers which en fer the Columbia downstream, for most of its floods, Robins, as Pacific Northwest di vision engineer in 1932-38, was in charge of navigation and flood con trol work for the Army Engineers in the Columbia Basin. He said he made numerous surveys and re ports to Congress, including those lor Bonneville and McNary Dams. Bonneville is complete and Mc Nary will be completed soon.
