Balance Tipped
By a strange irony of the Senate wardrobe policy, two themes away from negro “of citizens’ rights in the south and the federal government in the North-West has been linked to Capitol Hill last week, with surprising results.
Public-private power and partisan power have quarreled and quibbled over the past decade on the question of whether the federal government should be 1) the construction of a dam in the power miles deep into the Hells Canyon’s North West Snake River, or 2) Leave the private property Idaho Power Co. do the job. The issue seems settled last year when the Senate scotched, 51 to 41, a Democratic bill on registration, a federal Hells Canyon dam up the price of $ 300 million. Idaho Power, has received licenses from the Federal Power Commission during the year 1955, was ahead with plans for the construction of three small dams in the queue no cost to the nation’s taxpayers.
But an Office of Defense Mobilization decision on the granting of Idaho Power-A rapid depreciation of the dollar many tax breaks on the Snake River Project (TIME, May 13) launched the issue of crackle. Encouraged, the Northern Democrats in the Senate Hells Canyon to resume their bill, while the Confederation would dam, he asked Idaho Power flood three dam sites.
Southern Democrats, desperate for support against a Republican motion to the House of the law on citizens’ rights on the Senate calendar, an exchange offer North Democrats: the vote with us, send the bill of rights of citizens Justice dominated southern Committee, and we agree with you Hells Canyon.
Although southern wangle not obliged to make commitments, five Northern Democrats, known as the Master of both rights and governments have voted against the plan for the citizens of rights directly on the floor, bypassing committee Justice .* south were grateful for the help - Injuries and outmaneuvering Republicans for them. So five southern Democrats against the bill Hells Canyon, a year ago (’s East Mississippi, North Carolina’s Ervin, Louisiana’s Long, Russell’s Georgia, Florida’s Smathers) turned around and voted for him. He tilted the balance: the Hells Canyon bill passed, 45 to 38
What a joy gallery spectators a rare event in the north-Senate Democrats on geschliffenem Handshake, back slapping serenity, because they believe they have a major problem of public power. But the joy was premature. It was doubtful that the bill could get a home. When he did, it would still be for the President and insiders to provide a right of veto Eisenhower.
