Urg l3 Morse More Boxcars ? WASHINGTON IJB Sen. Morse (D-Ore) thinks the railroads should be required to increase the num ber of freight cars, in service be- fore they become eligible tor tax writeoffs on new car construction 'programs. t ,' He expressed the view In a let ter to his Oregon constituents in which he discussed the continuing shortage of boxcars. '" Morse said that in the past 5'i "years, railroads have taken out of service approximately 30.000 more cars than have been added. "What is even more disturbing." he said, "is that the Office of De fense Mobilization, upon recom mendation of the Defense Trans- "port Administration, has granted over lMi billion dollars in quick ..tax writeoff certificates to the ?.Class I railroads to build new cars Muring the same period." 3 The senator said he has .written tHJie two agencies ."urging "that if jrthey continue this expensive pro E gi'am they should require that the H'ailroads actually increase the Lfrtal supply of cars." The two agencies, Morse said. &3should police the use of tax certif icates much more closely and at rtach conditions to them that have (not been in force to insure that cars will not merely tie replaced but augmented." and added: r "The loss of tax revenue under these certificates represents an "additional burden on the general J-taxpayir. Add to this the loss of fluxes from lost sales and. wages oue 10 tne ireigni car snoriage iTend the program as administered Enuring the past two years is high JJy questionable."

The carnival is open to the pub lic. Both associations opposed the Idaho Power Co.'s application to build three dams in the Hells Can yon reach of the Snake, where the federal Hells Canyon Dam has been proposed, upstream from the Mountain Sheep and Pleasant Val ley sites. The FPC granted a license to Idaho Power but the Hells Canyon Assr. is preparing a court appeal. Both associations contend in their petitions that hearings should be held on the Mountain Sheep- Pleasant Valley plan because it involves basic issues similar to these of the Hells Canyon fight. They fought Idaho Power on grounds the proposed federal Hells Canyon Dam would produce more power and more fully utilize the river s resources than the com pany's three smaller projects. In the new case, they contend the Mountain Sheep and Pleasant Valley projects would be a poor substitute for the proposed federal Nez Perce Dam. which they claim would produce twice as much pow er, more flood control and other benefits. Both Hells Canyon .and Nez Perce are dams in the Army Engineer's flood control plan for the Columbia River Basin, tne as sociations say. The Hells Canyon Assn. also de clared the granting of the Moun tain Sheep-Pleasant Valley license without a hearing would be pre judicial to Its court appeal in the Hells Canyon case. The Northwest -Public Power Assn. urged FPC to conduct "full hearings" in the Pacific Northwest and to compare the benefits of the Mountain Sheep-Pleasant Valley and Nez Perce proposals. This group asserted the estab lishment of PNPC "as a super electric generation syndicate would constitute a dangerous step in the direction of creating an enormous private monopoly and private con trol over electricity matters. . and economy in general" in the Northwest.
