These services would have to be absorbed or duplicated.

Besides performing these duties and administering these services better than present state and feder al agencies, CVA would also gobble up the Bonneville power authority, along with the Coulee development and other dams which are proposed for the area. From them would be diverted the revenues derived from the sale of power to finance other services which are not self -sustaining, thereby retarding industrial development by denying the area power at its lowest possible price.

A prospectus published and cir culated by an organization describ ing itself as the League for CVA, with headquarters in Seattle, includes among its modest apprais- of the benefits to, be derived from CVA the realization of a paradise in which "apples will- be redder, milk richer, wheat more nourishing and as a result the peo ple will be sturdier, healthier and happier." Other equally plausible fruits of progress to be harvested from the CVA tree, according to a pamphlet circulated by the league, include the promises that the author ity "will encourage manufacturing and processing to build industries, jobs, payrolls," and that "there be a tremendous program for irrigating arid and Bcmi-arid lands." To further glamorize the glittering picture of this man-made garden of Eden the world picture pointed to describe an area, that "will be richer than ever before and more like it used to be when the Indians roamed and the fish leaped in every river and deer were found on every hill and in every valley. CVA will preserve woods and beauty spots. It will propagate fish so that every brook and stream and lake will be alive with them and it will do the same with deer and pheasant and all the wild life natural to this region." To accomplish all of these ends it will be necessary for CVA to swallow all of the existing agencies 'Ships That Pass In The Frank.

This term is erroneously applied, because of the, fact that the tide had nothing to do with it. Most so-called tidal waves may be traced to an earthquake occurring in the waters af- fected. The Mussina earthquake of about 40 years ago hacj its origin in the tuutow atrait between Sicily and the Italian coast. It set up sea waves 4.0 feet in height that were responsible for much damage.

But, it was not 9 tidal wave any more than the American army which in-yaded Italy from Sicily might be called a tidal wave, IncidontaHy, that army did more damage to Italy than: did tbe Messina earthquake waves. 1 I The Galveston floods of a few yeirs" ago were caused by an entirely' different natural ghenomo-np Tley were caused by the pil-ing of waters driven in by the West Indian Nevertheless, they wejg referred to in the dispatches as tidal waves, tho the tides had nothing to do with them. Apparently, the earthquake waves thai 'hit the Pacific islands Monday were" thp highest that we tare any record of and did as much as the! "tidal" wave of Japs wjieu they first invaded the island. It ia oiily natural that the religiously, superstitious islanders should claim that the inundation was merely a retribution from on high, because of our use of the atomic Such people do not stop to think that if the Almighty is in the retribution business, he would exercise, bis power in this direction the Axis and not on the innocent Nearly everybody hates the black markets. But one thing is certain you don't have to pay black market prices if you don't patronize the black markets.
