McNALLY Wfi ALL IS QUIET on our side of the capitol as this is written. Many members of the house have gone home for the week or are on short vacation trips. I had intended getting in a round of golf or two and perhaps a very little gardening at home, but the recess shows signs of ending before I get completely caught up with office work. This last two weeks before the recess were busy weeks.

House sessions began at 11 o'clock and sometimes at 10 and adjourned late each day. Committees met also. It was next to impossible to get anything much done in the office. RECENTLY I WAS talking with a lady visitor from the west who had Just spent several hours in the visitors' galleries of the house and senate. She was quite disturbed by the fact that so few members were on the floor and that, as she said, those who were there were not listening to the member speaking.

I have often thought that visitors watching the house in session must be quite disappointed if not disillusioned. Only a few limes each week is the house chamber actually filled with members. When minor routine business is being transacted or -when a set period of general debate is be- I conducted on a bill, there is no real necessity for a member to be on the floor. As a matter of fact, the pressure of committee and office work is so heavy on all members that for them to be on the floor at such times would be an unproductive use of time. On the other hand, when an important bill is being read for amendment, most members stay in the chamber until the final roll call.

Gallery visitors at such times are not disappointed. There is usually plenty of action. LATELY I HAVE spent several hours reading and carefully studying the new Columbia Valley Authority bill sent to congress by the president accompanied by a message urging its passage. When the subject was mentioned earlier this year, I took out my rather voluminous CVA file, obtained some additional material, and made a careful review of the whole subject. I was actually surprised, after reading most everything said and written on CVA, to find that so pitifully little specific evidence showing the need for such an all-powerful authority has been put forth by those who desire the passage of this legislation.

If a case could be made for Guest Leaving Today For California Home Mrs. Stephen J. Wolcken of Oakland, is returning home today after a brief stay in Medford as a guest of Mrs. Glen Fabrick, 2404 Hillcrest avenue. While here Mrs.

Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Bell returned home Friday, April 22.

after spending several days Tacoma, with Mr Bell's I seriously ill. mother who was such a bill, the president should have made it in his special message. A careful reading of his very honest statement regarding the present development program of the Columbia river area rather tends to prove that it is proceeding at a splendid rate. Instead of proving that a CVA must be established in order to develop the Columbia properly, the text of the president's message causes me to have even more serious doubts as to the need for any such legislation. The CVA bill itself (identified as H.R.4286 or H.R.4287 since Representatives Mitchell and Jackson of Washington introduced identical bills) would place almost unlimited power in the hands of a board of three men appointed by the president.

The passage of this bill would empower the board to do almost anything in the region from regulating hunting and fishing to building industrial "practical demonstration" plants, power dams, steam plants, transmission lines and other facilities. Local people would not have the slightest power over, or effective voice in, the operations of this all-powerful board of three. The Columbia region as defined in tile bill includes all of the fourth congressional district. I shall be glad to send a copy the bill to anyone requesting one. I hope careful study will be given the bill by the people concerned because we are all going to be seriously affected by it if it should become law.
