Delay Action On Approval Of Big Dam
The House reclamation subcommittee postponed indefinitely a bill to authorize the Hells Canyon dam on the Idaho Oregon border. The four day hearing was halted after two days of testimony with Rep Norris Poulsin leading the motion and Rep Hamer Budge welcoming the unanimous decision. Interior officials argued the 900000 kilowatt dam was urgently needed and power revenues could aid future irrigation on the Snake River. Stinson noted possible use of interest in irrigation financing while acknowledging past opposition to such use.
