Chase, Stuart | June 3, 1936 issue

add to cart close window

This article presents the author's views on the activities of the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA). The staff members of the TVA went to the west from Washington, over the red fields of Virginia, up the Blue Ridge Mountains, down the Shenandoah Valley, with billboards screaming of limestone caves, up the Appalachians again, with the Great Smokies looming to the south, and down into Tennessee and the Valley of the Tennessee, running yellow with silt. They went to the town of Norris for inspecting the Norris Dam.
