Since each craft would have a two-man crew, this would put four American astronauts into space simultaneously. 77th Ytiar No. 258 The purpose of the dual flights would be to make up some of the time lost last week when failure of an Atlas-Ageha rocket forced postponement of the Gemini 6 flight. Officials at the Manned Spacecraft Center at Houston, indicated the two-flight plan would call for Gemini 7 to be launched first and Gemini 6 to be launched, 10 days later.

But since last spring, he's sniped repeatedly at BPA in the monthly newsletter that circulates among 64,000 consumers belonging to the cooperatives. Alderman is opposed to the rate increase EPA wants, One ofj the reasonsis his belief that higher rates, even though remaining lowest of any in the nation, "slow down develop? ment in the Northwest." The low-cost power available from federal projects is one of the few competitive advantages the Northwest has over the rest of the he says. Competitors Want to Nip Our Advantage Recently he seconded the protest of Rep. Robert B. Duncan, to the Federal Power Commission.

"Competing interests," Duncan wrote, "geographical, industrial, and power users and suppliers have long wanted either to share our Northwest resources or reduce the economic advantages inherent therein, or both. "The power rate increase is an attack on the Northwest, demanded more by pragmatic considerations involving the development of hydroelectric power than by the economic necessities. "The statistical basis on which the increase is based is tenuous and speculative, involving predictions of economic conditions, interest rates, labor and other and new production and transmission facilities for many, many years in advance. "The newly announced rate policy, in effect, asks present BPA customers to pay in advance for power projects not yet begun and for which money has not yet even been appropriated by Congress." i When Secretary of the Interior Stewart. L.

Udall announced last month that a rate increase would be sought, he said that "BPA must maintain the confidence of Congress. Measured against the great, benefits of orderly power development BPA and its customers are jointly seeking, the burden of these rate adjustments be Thus, Alderman contends, Duncan's charge of "pragmatism" is upheld. "Perhaps no aluminum plants will dose up, but they may not be able to expand or rebuild when they are obsolete. Perhaps the cooperatives and other customers can squeeze by. But a rate increase will blunt the tremendous developmental tool that low-cost Before the double-header plan was announced by the President, the space agency had made the decision not to use th Gemini 6 boos er for the Gemi- ni 7 launch.

He was treated for shock by an Oceanlake physician. The driver of the Lincoln City ambur lance said Coleman was blue from lack of oxygen when he was brought out of the hole. uty Brigade commander will be Col. William Foster of Mc-Mmnville. The present 82-man headquarters and headquarters company, 1st brigade, 41st infantry division, Portland, will be reorganized to form the new 217-man brigade headquarters and head quarters company.

Additional manpower will be drawn from various Portland guard units to bring the new, unit to its required strength. Troop 1st squadron, 82nd cavalry, Woodburn, will become Troop 82nd cavalry. Some 72 men from existing, cavalry troops at Salem, Silverton and Dallas will bring the new unit to its required 170 men. A new 162nd engineer- company will be formed, from headquarters company, 162nd engineer battalion and companies A and all from Portland. Company 162nd engineers, Astoria, will provide 64 men to give the unit a bridge platoon.

Lincoln Rescued government power has built in the Northwest," Alderman told the Capital Journal. Money Out, of Pockets of Northtvesterners L. J. Bauer, Newport, president of the Oregon PUD Directors Association, states flatly that an increase would be money out of the pockets of Northwest consumers. "Any additional money which goes to the federal treasury as a result of a rate increase is money flowing out of the Northwest and out of the local economy," he says.

"Bonneville has not to our satisfaction that a rate increase is necessary to meet payout schedules set for them by Congress." Bonneville has calculated, using a 50-year accounting base it says must be used to meet congressional demands for repayment of projects, that without a rate increase it will go into the hole in the year 2019. LN Critics have taken the calculations to turn-against BPA, for the same schedule which has Bonneville worried also shows a surplus of revenues of $2: 17 billion in the year 2046. With a rate increase, the surplus would be more than $3.1 billion in the same year. They question whether the increase is in the spirit of the Bonneville Project Act, which says in part: "Contracts entered into with any utility engaged in the sale of electric energy to the general public shall contain such terms and conditions (which) insure that resale of such utility to the ultimate consumer shall be at rates which are reasonable and non ought by i hovj, to get a klansman out of jail."

Incentives Put in New Rate Schedule BPA Administrator Charles Luce thinks utilities, over the years, haven't reduced rates as much as possible. Part of the blame has been Bonneville's, he admits, which didn't encourage a program of reductions" But on the other hand, BPA sine 1954 has been studying a possible increase without being certain, how large it would be. "It was understandable," Luce said, "that (the distributors) would-be reluctant to cut their margins to the bone." BPA i has included more liberal incentives in its new rate schedules and believes they may produce more business for the customers.

One is a reduction of the so-called "ratchet," an arrangement by which monthly payments for power purchased, by non-generating utilities are based on the purchase during the month or highest demand. For years, utilities have had a 70 per cent ratchet meaning their minimum payment during any month of the year would be 70 per cent of the month of highest purchase. As a generality, the coldest, darkest month of the year (January) usually determined Ihe'rates for the rest of the year. That was true this year, when one of the coldest Januarys on record governed payments through rest of the year, when the weather was fairly mild. The ratchet would be reduced to 50 per cent under the new rate schedule.

BPA thinks this will' allow utilities to promote more electric use, such as home heating, because there will be less worry about the high demand having a bad effect on the payments the rest of the year. Increase Would Lighten in Years Ahead result will be more money in utility treasuries and the possibility of rate reductions for the consumers, BPA predicts. It makes an illustration of the Snohomish County, Peoples Utility using the PUD's own load forecasts. In 1963, the rate increase in the district would have amounted to 5.8 per cent. Next year, consumers would pay 4.9 per cent more.

But in 1974, they would pay but 1.4 per cent more than if the old rates still existed. These claims have been read and re-read by opponents of the increase, and there still is no agreement. a new policy alien to the original intent.
