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:

these certificates represents an

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.
