Power Election Watched in East Washington, April 21 (") Federal officials have re mained silent about the unfavorable Oregon public power dis trict election. Secretary Ickes had nothing to say at his press conierence last week, He saia ne- was waiting word from Bonneville Administrator Ross. The election result, however, was called to the attention of congress by Representative Snell (R.-N.Y.) who said the vote appeared to be "strong evidence" that the people did not want "these gigantic pro jects imposed upon them from Washington." "This also demonstrates how the new deal constantly Is creating new difficulties for the country," he said. "Bonneville dam will be completed in about a year, but the people of the immediate vicinity have already emphatically disapproved the pro posed distribution scheme." Oregon Shares Well Oregon's share in the new deal fiscal program amounted to $328,- 712,276 at the end of 1937. . . . The grand total of grants, loans and loans Insured. Portly Alben Barkley, the major ity floor leader In the senate, dis closed the sum during a Jefferson day address here. The Kentucklan held the expend itures were in accord with Jeffer- sonlan principles. Barkley mentioned the figure af ter citing the Jeffersonlan belief In "support of the state governments In all their lights., as the most competent administrations for our domestic concerns and the surest bulwarks against anti-republican tendencies." "Today the sovereignty of the 48 states is not questioned by a sin. gle citizen and the mother govern ment has responded in unity to pro tect her citizens during a period when threatened with economic collapse," Barkley said. Berkley's figures were ba.sed on computations from March 4, 1933, when the president took office, to January 1, 1938. Classified as "expenditures," largely grants, were the following Oregon figures: State's Share Listed Agricultural adjustment admin istration. $14,203,036; farm security administration, $258,938; civil works administration, $6,452,853; federal emergency relief administration. $21,225,694; civilian conservation corps, $47,788,579; bureau of public roads, $21,766,486; social security act, $3,6o3,861; public works admin istration, $48,027,903; works pro gress administration, $28,135,333; re mainder of emergency appropriation acts of 1935, 1936 and 1937, $8,362, 795; reclamation service, $7,393, 691; public buildings, $385,816.

CCC to Operate 1501 Camps Another Year Washington, April 31. UP) The civilian conservation corps will op erate 1501 camps for another year. Director Robert Fechner said to day, as a result of congressional approval of an additional $50,000,- 000 appropriation. "The new funds." Fechner said "will mean that we do not have to cut off 301 camps as previously ordered, and that we can proceed with an uninterrupted program." The extra money, requested by President Roosevelt In his new re covery program, was authorised by the senate yesterday. The house previously had voted for It. Fechner estimated that more than one-half the CCO approprla tion, now Increased to $276,000,000 for the fiscal year beginning July 1. will be spent on supplies, includ ing food, clothes and equipment. The remainder will be distributed in wages to about 371.000 enrolled men. The camps, Fechner said, will be continued In their present locations with the exception of 31 which will be moved from army reserva tions to other sites. Started slightly mora than five years ago as Mr. Roosevelt's first recovery project, the CCO has giv en employment to approximately 2.300.00O persons at various times. When the president suggested the corps, he said he wanted to change disheartened, hopeless youths Into self-supporting independent mem bers of society. During the quarter ended Sep tember 30, 1937, Fechner said, 3, 799 enroll ees obtained private Jobs because of training received hi camp. Stream Flow This Season is Better Corvallis, April 21. VP) With one exception the Umatilla Walla Walla basin stream flow In Ore gon this summer should be materi ally better than In 1937, water sur vey experts of Oregon State college predicted today. Moisture conditions throughout the state an the best In many In stances in the past decade and an abundance of Irrigation water la In prospect. Reports from 75 snow courses show that all of the state's 17 Irri gation storage reservoirs either are filled beyond the 1937 level or are being purposely retarded to Insure flood control as the huge 1938 snow paek melts. The one exception In stream flow results from a subnormal snowfall In the Umatilla-Walla Walla area. A heavy winter run-off has pro vided, however, more water In the McKay and Cold Springs reservoirs. In other portions of the state, snow supplies exceed normal and to this circumstance is added the fact that the soil Is generally un frozen, making for a better absorp tion of excess water.
