Show 4 ) EPSON IN WASHINGTON Hot Cargo High-Da- By PETER EDSON NEA Washington Correspondent About Those French Premiers The usual jokes alxut the fall of another French government are not this time. For Premier Guy Mollet had established a postwar record of 16 continuous months in office, giving the French an unaccustomed taste of stable living. In the light of recent French history, however, it was not widely assured that this spree of stability would last indefinitely. The French are still the French, which means they would rather split a quite-appropriat- hair than solve a problem. Right now they are enjoying e some- what more than their normal quota of disagreements. Mollet's government founder-Ze- d on the rock of his demand for higher Tax Cut Dream Naturally there is always keen competition in the matter of taking credit for tax cuts. Word from Washington was that the Democrats had originally decided on seeking a reduction this year to take effect next January because they wanted to beat the Republicans to the punch. President Eisenhower has been saying all along that a cut would have to wait, but evidently the Democrats feared a surprise move by the GOP. ', 0 Now Democratic leaders have given up their drive to enact a cut this year, while still voicing hope for 1958. And the President goes on reasserting that reductions aren't yet possible. It isn't wholly clear whether the change in Democratic strategy reflects a reap- praisal of budget prospects or a guess GOP after all does not have any tax surprises up its sleeve. In any event, citizens can put off figuring any cuts in taxes into their family budget plans for early 1958. It'll be a while yet. that the IS WASHINGTON (NEA) Advocates of the hph dam at Hells Canyon on the Snake River between Idaho and Oregon won't give up. They are fighting to have one big public power dam built instead of the two smaller dams which Idaho Power Co. has already started at Brownlee and Oxbow. They have taxes, budget economies and other adjustments to meet the ccfst of the war in Algeria and deal with other financial hazards. The French lawmakers are not agreed on how to prosecute this war, on what to do next about France's position at Suez, on whether or not to ratify the new pacts for a common European market and a pool lost every round so far. of atomic resources. Being thus divided, they have characteristically chosen not to try to compose their differences and hammer out effective policies, but rather to transform their disagreements into roadblocks. So now, even though Mollet stays on as premier while the search for his successor nroceeds. the French find themselves handicapped in pushing the Algerian war. The vital common market treaties are held up. President Rene Coty's impending trip to America is postponed. The country's finances drift slowly into a worse muddle than ever. mm else, taxes 1 Their French. the for provide the stumbler rebellion against taxes is centuries old. They regard them as the prime affront to their cherished individualism.

France's friends abroad again voice satisfaction that Guy Mollet's regime lasted so long. And they must hope that this break in continuity will not signal a return to the era of short-tergovernments, but will instead be followed by a tenure even longer than Mollet's.

She also sews, gardens and has guests in for the evening quite often because both she and her husband are sociable, hospitable people. She is quite happy with her life just as it is or would be except 'that she is beginning to feel guilty because she hasn't any time for outside activities. "When I explain that I just haven't time to join this and that club or head this or that committee, other women look at me as friough I am shirking my responsibilities," she says. "They make such comments as 'Well, of course we are all busy' or 'It's just a matter of making time for what you consider important'." Her letter ends with the question, "Are we women who feel our home, husbands and children need all of our time really selfish?" Of course not. During the busiest years of her life a woman may not have the time or energy to do very much outside her home. NOT "GUILTY" If she knows she can't take on outside jobs without neglecting her! main duties, she has no cause to feel guilty for saying no to Invitations to join this or that group or take on this or that re- sponsibility. The busy years pass quickly enough so that she will have plenty of Ume later on to lead a more active life outside her home. No one ought to try to make the busy mother of small children feel she is shirking her duty by not taking on work that can be done by women whose busiest years are behind them. But watever the attitude of others, a woman knows where her first duty lies. And so long as she goes what she feels is right, she ought to turn a deaf ear to anyone who tries to make her doubt herself. i t say-tha- 1 to Piero. MORE expansion goal.

What Idaho Power gets out of this is proporitionately just what 913 other private power company expansions will have received between 1951 and '1961 in accelerated tax amortization allowances. The; amount of these writeoffs is estimated at around four billion dollars, or 61 per cent of their six and a half billion dollar total cost. The first 912 of these projects were approved without objection from anyone. The UTilucky 913th, which went to Idaho Power, is jumped on because its two low dams are in conflict with the Hells Canyon public power project. There is plenty that can be said in favor of the high dam for full development of the Snake River resources. There is plenty more that can be said against all 913 of the private power expansion tax incentives. PRIVATE POWER industry spokesmen have been boasting or complaining that they paid full taxes on all their facilities. Yet since 1951 they have been receiving these special inttax benefits. What they really amount to are erest-free loans. government As new ODM Director Gordon Grav explained It to the Kefauver subcommittee in the Idaho Power case: "Thp comnanv will savp intprpt nn ihn tv nnvmonq which amounts it might otherwise have to borrow.
