Reed Hails River Power Project Vote in Maine
Gov John H Reed praised a 100 to 100 House tied vote that kept the 300 million St John River Dickey Dam power project in the omnibus rivers and harbors bill. He said the action secures federal support and promises economic expansion and lower power rates for Maine and New England. The tie defeated Rep Frank Clark’s bid to strike the project and leave Maine’s power problems to private utilities.
