Not so long ago Cordon’s opponent—the New Deal candidate for the U. S. Senate—was all in favor of keeping Hell’s Canyon an undeveloped wilderness. Now he wants a dam built entirely by Federal funds provided by the taxpayers of the entire United States—or nothing! If this man has his way, not one additional kilowatt shall we have from the Snake river unless the long-suffer ing U. S. taxpayer pungles up every penny! Recently this same State Senator, who now asks the voters to send him to Washington, D. C., jumped up in a meeting at Madras and stated he voted against the proposed Pelton Dam, which would have provided power for Central Oregon and would have been built entirely by private capital without cost to the taxpayers. He was a little confused there because the Pelton Dam proposal never came before the State Senate! When President Eisenhower dedicated McNary dam he paid glowing tribute to “my good friend, Senator Guy Cordon.” Can Oregon afford to lose this priceless presidential support by se nding a man to the U. S. Senate who would knife the Eisenhower administration at every turn? —-— rTHEDALLES DAM Cordon worked for authoriza tion of The Dalles Dam and got it started during the period of the Demo cratic no-new-starts policy in 1950— and he has the documents to prove it. Cordon has secured total appropriations of $92,676,000 which is $34,426,000 MORE than would have been appropriated had House recommendations pre vailed. CHIEF JOSEPH DAM As usual Cordon's effectiveness with both Democrats end Republicans in the U. S. Senate made possible larger appropriations than House recommendations For this proj ect Cordon has secured a total to date of $104,766,000— $10,122,000 more than House recommendations ALBENI FALLS DAM Cordon introduced legislation to authorize this project and secured funds for its continued construction while the Truman no-new-starts policy was in effect after the House of Represen tatives had refused to appropriate any funds for that purpose. 11 - COUGAR The Cougar dam on the South Fork of the McKenzie river is opposed by the New Deal candidate even though the "partner” in this project is a publicly owned municipal district. Just what kind of power does this man want? It can’t be electric power as such be cause he opposes everything but all-out Federal ownership. We’ll tell you. He wants a CVA with a stranglehold on the economic development of the Pacific Northwest! And the ulti mate dream of the "planners” is a Federal Power Authority to operate nat ion-wide and con trol every river resource in the entire U. S. Fantastic? Not at all. It is all part of a Master Plan. Eisen hower and Cordon say “let’s get on with the job of develop ing the Pacific Northwest. Let’s put our natural resources to work creating payrolls and prosperity NOW!” We need all the power we can develop through every source—Federal, Private and Public! Before you vote, take a good, long look at Cordon’s record. In his 10 years in the U. S. Senate he has stepped up Federal funds for water development in this area fpom 4.7% to 27.5% of all the money appropriated for the entire United States. Could any freshman Senator do as well—especially one op posed to everything the Eisenhower administration stands for? Now what’s ail this guff about low cost Federal power? It's a fairy-tale pure and simple. In many classifications private power companies in Portland. Oregon sell power at lower cost than the TVA. which of course is subsidized by the taxpayers. —— DAM I What about the Partnership Plan? Dot s the government pay for the non-income features? The 83rd Congress appropriated $150,000 for planning th«1 proposed partnership construction of this project on the South Fork of the McKenzie river. The Federa I-Power-or- nothing crowd fought the project tooth and toenail .even though th«- local partner was a municipal power district JOHN DAY DAM The John Day Dam between The Dalles and McNary Dams will cost around $320,000,000 to build. In the last Congress Cordon introduced a bill to authorize construction of this dam with the local jsirtncr.s, public and private, putting up more than half the cost of the dam in the form of a prepaid power contract (preference going to Oregon! and the federal government retaining 100‘, ownership of the entire project as a part of the multiple purpose development of the Columbia River Basin Yes. it does. But then it always has. There’s nothing new or different about that. Bonneville. McNary, The Dalles dam— all multi-purpose dams built entirely by Federal funds—charge off a percentage of construction and operating costs to such pub lic benefits as flood control, navigation, conservation and so on. When the New Dealers tell you Bonneville, for instance, is "pay ing for itself they are not telling you the whole truth about these "hidden“ costs! Remember, political hot air has never yet produced a kilowatt. DON T LIT POWER POLITICS STAND IN THE WAY OF ORE GON'S FUTURE! A vote for Cordon is a vote tor the tisenhower Partnership Plan of orderly and comprehensive development of our hydroelectric resources! HELLS CANYON DAM i On the loft we list just a few of the power projects which Cordon hat secured or has attempted to secure for the Pacific Northwest. It i> a matter of record that Cordon introduced the only Hell’s Canyon authorization attempt which ever came to a dear vote on the floor of the U S Senate At that time Cordon s pro- |>osal was opposed by th«- public-power-or-nothmg crowd in the U S Senate There are other suitable dam sites on the Snake Whv hold out for one that the Congress has refusc-d to authorize'’ Ix-t’s get something built and start the generators turning!
