Capitol Hill clash over public power and dam projects
The piece argues liberal Democrats accuse the Eisenhower administration of crippling public power, citing the Dixon-Yates contract and Interior Secretary McKay’s stance against federal Hell’s Canyon dam plans. It notes McKay favors Idaho Power’s three-dam proposal at no cost to government and discusses broader politics around government ownership, Communist critics, and the path to possible talks with China while stressing no bargain for released U N prisoners. It also credits Dag Hammarskjöld and Krishna Menon in the fliers' release efforts.

Battle over a regional power system rivaling TVA
Behind the scenes fight by New Deal survivors to preserve a federal power program for seven states from Louisiana to the Mexican border. The Southwest Power Administration, created by 1943 executive order, sought to fund plants and lines via BEA loans and a private-utility lease plan, but Congress refused funding and later resisted the Chapman Wickard scheme, leaving farmers paying for facilities with little prospect of affordable power.
