a figurd in a 30-year fontract ne
gotiated by Oscar Chapman, Tru-
rhan’s Secretary of the Interior.
Seaton had to obtain legal ad
vice before deciding to bring suit.
In other wor^ls. if there was
any favoritism in fixing corpora-
ate charges, as the public power
bloc -itates,—it - was"'extended by"
their own New' Deal administra
tors, not an Eisenhower effort to
gouge the little man’ for • the
benefit of the ^special interests.’
But now that Seaton plans to
try to break the Chapman-Rev-
nolds contract and raise the com
pany’s rates, the liberals main
tain that he is engaging in ‘po
litical reprisal.’ They blame him
now after criticizing him for fail
ing to include Reynolds in his
earlier demand for li general in
crease.
The Reynolds people, according
to this accusation, are being ‘pun
ished” because they contributed
$41,520 to Democratic candidates
in the recent election, while! giv
ing nothing to the Republicans.
By contrast, the Mellons gave
$99,150 to the GOP, and not a
cept to the Democrats.
"The Mellons’, said a recent ar
ticle in ‘Labor,’ the railroad un
ions' Now[ Dealish newspaper,’
have always had a. huge, advan-.
tage in fantastically cheap powe
from the Niagara ricer. No one
can rornfa te with them in the
aluminum industry without
cheap power
Sl aton’s move to raise the
rates by Reynolds obviously
would handicap Reynolds and
help the Mellons. Is it any won
der that some observers ask
whether a Republican adminis
tration is using Seaton to punish
a big giver to the Democrats,
and to reward a still biggei
giver to Republicans?’
The plain fact is that Presiden’
Eisenhower feels the rates fixed
by th e Truman-Ickes-Chnpman
public power group are so low
as to be ‘unrealistic and uneco
nomic’ They were kept cheap,
in -his opinion, for political reas-

renounced certain of their Sov
ereign rights in order to make
possible a central government,
but a central government of lim
ited powers, those powers dele
gated to it by the State.
Under our form of government
we have prospered.
It is not straining the point to
the legal condition that made us
say that we are departing from
the foremost nation of all the
world and of all time.
Just how the Congress enacts
laws that conflict with the re
served rights of the States and
the Commissions exercise powers
that are an invasion of the rights
of the States and the Supreme
Court of the United States is
making law by embodying the
ories and sociological nonsense
into decisions, this depriving us
of knowing what is the law, since
the vagaries of the judges may
validly upset all legal precedents.
What we need is a stern, clear,
irrefutabte and irrevocable re
affirmation of the scope of the
National Government with a
sweeping invalidation of all en
croachments on the State's.
If all Southern Representatives
and Senators in Congress would

Mr. Thornhill can make you
see that big dams are not only
uneconomical, but a very grave
potential menace; whereas, the
best use of water would suggest
small reservations,' small dams,
many small dams, rather than
one mammoth dam.
I have an interest in farming,
but I have never asked to be fa
vored with cheap or cheaper
rates or prices because of my
tie-up with agriculture
I no more believe in Govern
ment power or Government prfe-
( rentes than I advocate Govern
ment production -of- cotton and
com. If, for any reasin what
soever, the Government produc-
t s power, or contributes to the
production of power, the price
for that power should cover all
the costs of production and
tribution, including wear
tear, as well as other deprecia
tion, obsolescence and also all
taxes chargeable against any
i concern doing that sort of busi
ness.
Here is something on the gen
eral subject; I take from The Eve-

What about the small farm- i
er? Well, what about him’’ How j
can he live on a few acres of cot- ,
ton and one acre of tobacco? You
might retaliate by saying that if
every farmer should produce as
he ple’ases there would be no liv- |

negligible. And that is true. So

If all Southern farmers produce

A few years ago our Govern

more per acre and now we must
produce less per acre or .drastical

is a sad story.
