TWELVE MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday. Tb. 19, 194S DIVERSION MEET SET FOR YREKA William C. Bailey, managing editor of the Siskiyou Dally News, of Yreka, Calif., was in Medford Saturday in regard to the hearing slated Wednesday at 10 a. m., in Yreka regarding tne army engineers' activities look ins to the diversion of the Klamath river into the Pit or McCloud and thence into Shasta dam lake. Col. K. M. Moore, chief en gineer from the army engineers office in San Francisco, will be chairman of the meeting to be held in the supervisor's room In the Siskiyou county court house, and Otto von Seggern, army en glneaer civilian employe, will be present with data from the engineer's office. Officials of the bureau of re clamation, which has charge of the Shasta dam project, have denied there was any error In their calculations , as to the amount of water that would flow into the lake behind the dam, and the federal power com' mission has denied any connec tion with the present army en gineers' activity, Bailey said. He added that check-ups in Wash ington by Congressman Clair Engle, failed to show why the proposed diversion project is necessary. Bailey declared his belief that Siskiyou county, California, and Klamath county, 'Oregon, would present a united front against building any canal that would permit diversion of Klamath basin water into the Sacramento river watershed.
