Cloverdale Plans Storage
Dam;UseSquawCreekWater
Cloverdale. Dec. 10 (Special)
Plans for the storage of run off
water from Squaw creek, by the
Squuw creek Irrigation district,
are about completed. The water
will be stored in a natural basin,
located north and west of the
Cloverdale school on land owned
by-Vern Skclton, W; Shaver and
Prldy Holmes. A feeder canal will
be constructed from the Clover
dale ditch to the basin. In the
event the reservoir holds water,
turbine pumps will he Installed
to pump water from the reser
voir Into a canal that will return
the water through the Wlllard
Cyrus ranch to the main canal.
The bailn has been surveyed by
Al Mansfield and found to hold
on estimated 9,000 acre feel with
a depth of 35 feet. More water
could be stored by building up
the sides. Jim Wings, county
agent, Art King of soil conserva
tion service and Ferd Schlopkohl,
state engineer of Salem, and the
members of the district water
hoara. have gone over the pro
posed site and have found the
bottom of the basin to consist
of light clay with the known
depth of 65 feet. The over-burden
on the sides of the basin
were found to be of lighter soil,
containing a great deal of scab
rock.
Schlupkohl pointed out that
there may be a fault In the bas
in that could cause a leak such
as develoH'd at Wickiup reser
voir. It was recommended to
members of the district water
board, that they begin filling
the basin as soon as possible to
see If It will hold water.
During the past season the
district delivered over 18,000 acre
New Test Well"
Will Get Casing
Drilling of a test well several
miles west of Bend was halted the
latter part of this week when
the drill entered sand and gravel
at a depth of 170 feet. The sand
coved badly, blocking drilling op
erations, and casing hod to be
ordered. This arrived yesterday
and the sand was to be blocked
off this week end,
The drill struck the coarse sand
after penetrating n thick bed of
tuft. The sand formation Is be

cosing work Is completed.
This. Is the second' test hole
drilled In on attempt to locate on
auxiliary supply of water, for
summer use in Bend. The first
hole was drilled at the northern
base of Overturf butte, In a ra
vine. That hole was abandoned
when caving sand was encoun
tered 384 feet.
Present coarse sand, Interming

Remember Big
Snow? It Was 30
Years Ago Today
Thirty years ago this morning,
old timers recall, Bend was' under
a blanket of 47 inches of snow
and that depth still remains as
the greatest ever recorded In the
history of the local weather sta
tion. The heavy snow was follow
ed by a cold wave that slumped
the temperature to 25 below zero,
and a minimum temperature that
stands as the second lowest mark
on local weather records.
The great storm of 30 years
ago started on a Tuesday and by
Wednesday morning, Dec. 8, 1919,
lust sliort of four feet of snow
blanketed the earth. Ail traffic
was stopped, mills halted produc
tion and 2,000 men were without
work. Rail traffic up the Des-
chuter gorge was far off sched
ule.
In oowntown Bend all. streets
were choked by snow and traffic
war. halted. I-ire hydrants were
hidden by snow and the fire
truck was snowbound.
Old timers still refer to the
winter of 1919-20 as the winter
of the "great snow," as a result
of the unprecedented December
storm. The snow held more than
two inches of water.
Mountain Roads
Snow Blanketed;
Still Passable
Mountain highways were snow
blanketed and dangerously slick
this morning, following a storm
that added to the depth of the
pack In the Cascades and whiten-
J the Deschutes plateau " with

mained opened today, but sev
eral of them were temporarily
blocked by skidding trucks and
cars last night.
Motorists crossing the Cascades
over the week end were advised
to carry chains.
In Bend last night, the storm
cleared In the early morning
hours, followed by a rapid plunge
of temperature. At daylight this
morning, the mercury reading
was 8 above zero. This was the
coldest mark of the season.
Forecasts from Portland Indi
cate that even colder weather Is
in prospect for tonight, with a
minimum of 5 above expected.
Northwest Gets

started in Redmond this past sum
mer, but the sponsoring organiza
tion later switched to the district
plan, when it was discovered that
many large corporations and util
ities were unable to donate large
sums, but reportedly were willing
to pay their share in taxes over
a period of years.

Final Returns
Show Victory
By Opposition
By George McCaddrn
(Unilt-il Prew SUft CorrMpontlent)
Sydney, Australia, Sunday, Dec.
11 Australia followed New Zea
land In a swing to the right to
day and threw out the labor
government that has ruled the
country for eight years.
Final returns from yesterday's
general election showed the com
bined opposition liberal and coun-.
try parties had captured a clear .
majority of the 123 seats in the
house of representatives and thus
will have the right to form a new
government.
The liberal-county coalition has
promised that it will halt the la
bor (Socialist) government's na
tionalization program, protect
free enterprise, abolish state con
trols, and outlaw the communist
party.
Labor's defeat in Australia
leaves Britain, the mother coun
try, the only major common
wealth country still with a So
cialist government.
(In London, Winston Church
Ill's conservatives already were
pointing to the Australian vic
tory as evidence of a common
wealth trend to the right that
they hope will sweep them to
victory in a general election early
next year.)
On the basis of votes tabulated
at 2 a. m. (11 a. m. EST), the
liberal-country coalition claimed
a maximum of 68 seats in the
123-scat house. It said it was cer
tain of at least 65.
Majority of Nine
Two of the 123 seats, those
from Darwin and Canberra, have
only limited voting power. This
would give the opposition a ma
jority of Tiine on. their lowest ;
estimate and 15' on their maxl-'
mum claim.- - :,-.?:
Prime Minister Joseph E.
Chlfley, prime minister of the
labor government, still had not
conceded the election early today,
but In a statement around mid
night he had thanked voters for
their support.
The new prime minister will
be liberal leader Robert G. Men
zles, who headed a coalition gov
ernment from 1939 to 1941.
"It looks like a great victory,"
Menzies said early today. "I ad
here to my view that the elec
tion was one of the great decisive
political battles.
"If the present indications are
confirmed, my colleagues and I
will take up our great task with
a deeD sense of responsibility and
a feeling of thankfulness for the
delivery of Australia (from So
cialism)." Called Reprieve
Deputy liberal leader E. J.
Harrison said the election had
"reDrieved" Australia.
"Our personal liberties will be
freed from the Iron hand of state
and bureaucracy," he said.
The coalition's jubilation was
dampened only by indications
that labor will retain control of
the senate, or upper house of
parliament.
' Proportional r e p r e s e ntation
voting delayed counting of the
senate vote, but it appeared that
the labor party would get 33 of
the 60 seats In the new senate.
Labor controlled 33 of the 36
seats in the old senate. Only one
third of those were at stake yes
terday, plus 27 .new seats.
House Also Eenlarged
However, party strength In the
senate does not affect the com
position of the government. That
