A—18 » UNIFORM POLICY ‘ONPOWER HINTED National Plan Is Seen in Proposal for Operation of Bonneville. B the Assoclated Press. _ President Roosevelt has taken initial #teps leading to a uniform national power policy by asking Congress to authorize the appointment of an ad- ministrator to sell surplus power at the Bonneville Dam near Portland, Oreg. Public agencies and co-operatives seeking to purchase Bonneville power would be given preference over private concerns. Purchase contracts would contain clauses designed to assure *“reasonable” rates to the ultimate con= sumer. Transmitting a report from his Power Policy Committee, the Presi- dent said yesterday the legislation recommended should be “provisional In character pending the establishment of permanent administration of Bon- neville and other Federal projects in the Columbia Basin, but should not be inconsistent with national power policies which may be hereafter adopted.” He said a provisional bill should be passed this session because Bonneville is almost finished and power will be ready for distribution late this year. The Grand Coulee Dam in the State | of Washington will tie in with the permanent program. National Policy Foreseen. Some officials saw in yesterday’s recommendations the nucleus of the national policy to come later. The committee proposed that the Becretary of the Interior be authorized | to appoint the administrator, who would operate the Bonneville project with the advice of a board of three representing the War and Interior De- partments and the Federal Power Commission. The administrator would build trans- mission lines and sell power not needed for operation of the dam and locks at reasonable rates to be fixed by him- self, subject to approval of the Power Commission. “The rate schedules,” the report said, *should provide for uniform rates, or rates uniform throughout prescribed transmission areas, with a view ot distributing the benefits of an integrat- ed transmission system and encourag- Ing the equitable distribution of the electric energy development.” Rate Fixing Discussed. Rates, the report added. should be fixed with a view to encouraging the widest possible use of the power, hav- ing regard to recovery of the cost of production and transmission and amortization of the capital investment over a reasonable period. The administrator would be author- | 1zed to contract for the sale of pouer at wholesale, whether for resale nl’ direct consumption. 1, 1939, at least 50 per cent of the energy would be reserved for public &nd co-operative agencies. Contracts would not exceed 20 years. Rates wou)d be readjusted at least once every five years. A contract with a private agency which resold the bulk of the energy purchased could be canceled on five years' no.ice, if any part of the power were needed to satisfy requirements of public or co-operative agencies. “The project,” the report said, *“should become self-supporting, but in the meantime it will be necessary to provide funds for initial construction of transmission lines,” operation and | administration.” . Quints (Continued From First Page.) parents alone can completely provide. “There is no substitute for a mother. “Let them in these formative years have a little normality in their lives.” He said he hoped the parents would assume a larger responsibility for the education and religious training of the | children who will be 3 years old | May 28. “We hope they will take their part in actively directing matters in and about the nursery, and, in short, as the physical progress of the babies has been such as to permit it, the Dionne family will be reunited.” When he assumed the guardianship which he now seeks through legisla- tion to turn over to the official provin- cial guardian, Percy D. Wilson, he said BUILD A GARAGE NOW-AT SAVINGS With lumber and materials going up, You can save real money if you build a garage now. Pay for it like rent on a F. H. A. Loan.

Their business affairs are complex and extensive, Carefully Managed. “Throughout the term of guardian- ship, regardless of financial considera= tions, we have tried to avoid anything that might cheapen them. “But with that thought constantly in mind, we did feel it our duty to make what money we could for them, if we could make it ethically and decently and without exposing the children to physical or other danger.” Now, Croll said, there is sufficient income “for the needs of the entire family for all time to come.” Croll's bill would only replace him- self with Wilson. The other members of the Board of Guardians, the chil- dren's father, Judge J. A. Valin of North Bay, and Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe, their doctor, would not be affected. At Callander, the children’s home, father Dionne, who had at first ac- cused the government of stealing his babies, expressed gratitude for the guardianship. “We couldn't get along without it,” he said, CONTROL OF POWER T0 BE DISCUSSED | 3-Day Conference to Hear Several Outstanding Speakers on Monepoly Curbs.
