Leland Olds, 1890-1960
Biographical Sketch
Leland Olds was born in Rochester, New York, in 1890. He graduated from Amherst College in 1912, and did post-graduate work at Harvard College and Columbia University. His interest in economic problems, particularly in those of laboring men and women, was early evident in his professional career. During the First World War, he held positions with the Council of_National Defense, the Shipbuilding Labor Adjustment Board, and the National War Labor Board. In 1920, he became director of the research bureau of the Railway Employees Department of the American Federation of Labor. He later served as industrial editor of the Federated Press, a labor news service, and as economic consultant to several labor organizations.
In the 1930s, Olds turned his attention to the development of public power. As executive secretary of the Fewer Authority of the State of New York (1931-39), he took a direct role in the hydro-electric development of the Saint Lawrence River. His interest in this project continued after his appointment in 1939 to the Federal PaNer Commission. He was one of the negotiators and signers of the 1941 agreement between the United States and Canada regarding the use of the waters _in the Great Lakes-Saint Lawrence River Basin, and he was chairman of the United States Saint Lawrence Advisory Committee from 1940 to 1949. Olds served on the Federal Power Commission for two five-year terms, from 1939 to 1949. For about half of this time (1940-44, 1946) he acted as the Commission's chairman.
His close association with the New Deal and with its public power policies made him a controversial figure. Fierce opposition greeted President Truman's nomination of Olds for a third term with the Federal Power Commission. After some rather bruising hearings on the nomination, the Senate voted to reject it.
Olds held several other positions in the Roosevelt Administration. He served with the National Power Policy Committee, and with the Water and Energy Resources Committee of the National Resources Planning Board. He was also a member, in 1936, of the President's commission to study European cooperatives, which assignment resulted in his authoring a report entitled "Inquiry on Cooperative Enterprise in Europe." i
President Truman appointed Olds to two posts. Immediately following the unsuccessful Federal Power Commission nomination, he made him the only full-time member of the Water Resources Policy Commission. He also appointed him to serve as the Department of the Interior's representative on the New England and New York Interagency Committee, which had as its charge the study of potential development of land and water resources in that area.
Following his departure from government service in 1953, Olds worked as a staff consultant of the Public Affairs Institute and as a director of the Energy Research Association, an independent consultants' group which he formed in 1954.
Leland Olds died on August J, 1960.
