STRENGTH IN UNITY The first bloc of states, banding together in an effort to present a united front against the ursurpers of states’ rights, has been formed. Down in the Pacific Northwest region, the five states which comprise a solid and complete little empire within a corner of the United States have organized an association serving a twofold purpose. Governors of these states have decided, first, that they must unite to protect local interests against further usurpation of power by Washington; second, that post- war problems can best be solved within their districts by preparing now for the future. The organization, known as the Northwest States Development Association, was conceived in an effort to protect the rights of the States of Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Oregon and Washington in connection with the development of Federal power projects along the vast Columbia River system, Postwar planning for natural resource uses has come as a logical result of discussions of the present use of the vital resource of water While it is unfortunate that any group of states should fear for rights inherent to them, the action taken by these five Governors supplies an example for other sections of the country presented with similar problems.
