Still Seeking to Divert
Columbia to California
Washington. Feb. 21 VP) The reclamation bureau's dream of
diverting water from the Columbia river in the Pacific north
west for use in California and Colorado basin states is still under
study. ,
"The Columbia basin, with its enormous excess of water, is
the only known possible source"
of water needed in California
and neighboring states, the bu
reau said in a memorandum to
the house sub-committee on in
terior department appropriations.
The bureau, asking $170,000
to continue this and other water
studies, said it will be a year or
two before it can make a report
to congress on the possibility of
diverting Columbia river water
which now empties'into the sea.
The memorandum, made pub-

ried 22 years ago, February 14,

lie by the committee, said the
bureau proposes to investigate
the physical and economic jus
tification of diverting "a small
portion of the surplus waters of
the Columbia river basin or other
Pacific streams which are wast
ing into the sea, into dry areas
of the south."
The bureau said the Columbia
at its mouth discharges 170,000,-
000 acre feet of water annually.
It said the Colorado river
basin needs water and Central
Valley in California can use
more.
"The Columbia river," the
memorandum said, "and these
adjacent streams are the only
ones with a foreseeable surplus
of water water going in large
quantities into the sea and to a
degree that all of it will prob
ably never be used for beneficial
consumptive purposes in the na
tural drainage basing The other
western rivers are notably de
ficient.".. The bureau said no informa
tion on possible routes for the
proposed diversion would be
available until the study is fur
ther along. Likewise, it said;
there is no estimate of the quan
tity of water which might be
diverted, but that it would be
"very small" compared to that
now going out to sea,

Pendleton, Ore., Feb. 21 VP)-
Public power representatives at
an informal session here yester
day agreed to work toward pur
chase of Pacific Power & Light
Co., transmission and distribu
tion lines in a wide area of west
ern Oregon and Washington.
Eric A. Johnson, manager of
the Wasco Electric Co-operative,
The Dalles, agreed it was a long-
range obejctive for the 14 groups.
Some of the men attending
yesterday's meeting expressed
only personal opinion which
would have to be backed by
board action, he said, but "there
were more board members than
managers present." Johnson pre
sided at the meeting.
Johnson said in some cases the
representatives were interested
in acquiring only the PP&L'i dis
tribution facilities in their areas
and in others they wanted the
private power firm's transmis
sion lines.
Purchase of the entire opera
tion was not contemplated, he
said.
The meeting coincided with
appearance in Portland of two
men representing the new own
ers of controlling stock in PP&L:
J. Douglas Casey, president of.A.
C. Allyn & Co., and Donald C.
Lillis, partner in Bear, Stearns
& Co., whose firms last month
paid $16,125,000 for PP&L stock.
