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

The Kentucklan held the expend

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.

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.
