SUMMER SESSION KANSAN
COMMENT
The Yardstick
The Tennessee Valley Authority's long delayed report on the allocation of the cost of its dams has finally been made public.
It reveals that the TVA directors have decided to charge up to 52 per cent of the cost to power, 28 per cent to navigation and 20 per cent to flood control. Nothing is debited to national defense or to fertilizer production.
The report is immensely important, because interest on the investment in power producing facilities is one of the main items supposed to be covered by the TVA power rates. On the fairness of the TVA allocation depends the honesty of the TVA yard-stick.
Most of us needn't be ashamed to admit it if we don't fully understand this report. None but experts can know what it is all about, and even the experts are likely to disagree, just as former Chairman Arthur E. Morgan does disagree with the other TVA directors about the yardstick's honesty.
Fortunately there is a public agency which has the authority to dig into the question with the help of the qualified experts. That agency is the TVA investigating committee created by congress.
And we are glad that Francis Bidle, one of the committee's chief experts, has said that whether the yardstick is honest or not is "one of the most essential" things the committee should determine.
It is the most essential thing.
Campus Opinion
Editor Summer Session Kansan:
It's a good thing that President Roosevelt and other officials who have been creating projects for the unemployed will probably never read a recent letter to the Kansan; the shock would be too great for them. Here they've been wasting all that energy and money when it was entirely unnecessary; all that was needed was a good course in HOW to get a job and all of the 15 million unemployed would have magically become the holders of fine positions. It's even possible that Mr. Dale Carnegie would have been willing to teach that course and then things would have been perfect. We always thought that all that was necessary was to polish one's shoes, wear Arrow collars and use Lifebuoy in order to P.S. he got the job. It even seems that the right course in college will do away with these elementary requirements.
It's certainly a wonder that the fundamental truths expressed in the letter have never been brought to light before. For example, it never dawned on us before that employees don't make any effort to do enough for their employers. Here are men such as Ford, for instance, who take the trouble to build great factories just so Joe Smith can have a chance to turn a screw eight hours a day, and Joe really doesn't show his appreciation. Now if at the end of the day he were to offer to mow Mr. Ford's lawn or wash his car, or take Mr. Ford's dog for a walk there would certainly be an improvement in employer-employee relationships and things would be just too, too, divine!
We would like to point out that a
Pollyanna attitude toward our chaotic economic situation simply helps to keep it chaotic. Instead of facing the unemployment problem squarely and recognizing the true significance of the crisis which has thrown 15 million people out of work, many prefer to hide their heads in the sand. They still believe in the Horatio Alger formula for success; well, we hope for their sake that they will continue to live in that blissful state because if they ever wake up reality will give them a none-too-gentle kick in the face.
There is just one question we would like to ask. If all the millions of unemployed were to take that course that he advocates would our employment be solved and everybody live happily ever after?
