Magazine Article
Tells Function of
Snow Survey Work
An article explaining the use
and function of west coast co
operative snow surveys publish
ed in the current issue of West
ern Construction News. One of
the three coauthors is R. A.
"Arch" Work, senior irrigation
engineer at the Southern Oregon
Experiment station.
The article gives a description
of the work, in which many state,
federal, municipal, commercial
and private agencies cooperate,
and it tells the uses to which the
survey is put forecasting flood
possibilities, drought conditions,
irrigation water supplies, and
run-off patterns.
Others collaborating in prep
aration of the article are Paul
A. Ewing, senior irrigation econ
omist of the soil conservation
s e r v i c e, Berkeley, Cal., and
Clyde E. Houston, irrigation en
gineer of the soil conservation
service in Reno, Nev.
Follow Pattern
Forecasts given in the article
largely follow the pattern of
predictions made by the local
office of the cooperative survey
and published previously in The
Mail Tribune, although they
cover a larger territory.
The story points out the flood
potential in the northwestern
states this year, indicates that
drought conditions are spreading
through the southwest, shows in
dications of liberal water sup
plies in the mountain states, and
forecasts a run-off pattern sim
ilar to 1949's.

Fewer Idle Workers
Here Than Last Year
There were an estimated 1.400
idle workers in Jackson county
May 1, about 200 les9 than at
the same date last year, accord
ing to the state unemployment
compensation commission.
Although lumber and wood
products generally were employ
ing 14,000 more Oregoniuns in
mid-April than at the height of
the cold weather about three
months before, re-hiring slowed
during the past few weeks, the
commission said. Non-durable
goods also were slow in re-hiring
workers throughout the state,
but June harvests are expected
to bring delayed gains in food
processing employment.

Plane Completes
Fourth Mission
"Mission completed without in
cident" can again be written in
the log-book of "Rogue's Wings
o' Mercy," the air ambulance
operated for Jackson county peo
ple by Mercy Flights Inc.
The two-engined plane yester
day took two injured young peo
ple to their home in Paso Rubles,
Cal., at the request of their doc
tor, and returned here early this
morning. Pilot for the trip was
Zane Griffin.
The patients were Marie and
Gerald Lipham, injured in a re
cent automobile accident. Their
physician made the request for
tile air service at 9:15 a.m. yes
terday and the plane left at 12:30
p.m., after some delay caused by
efforts to' make the patients more
comfortable. Each suffered a
broken pelvis. Finally an air
plane tire inner tube was pressed
into service as a cushion, mak
ing the trip easier for the young
people. They were accompanied
by their mother. Mrs. Lillie Lip
ham. Paso Roblcs.
1,000-Mile Round Trip
The flight, more than 1.000
miles round trip, included a stop
at Sacramento on the way south,
arrival at Paso Robles at 4:30
p.m., where an ambulance met
the plane, arrangements having
been made by Southwest air
ways, and the return starting at
5:30 p.m. Griffin stopped over
night at Red Bluff, because of ex
treme turbulence over the Sis
kiyou mountains.
George Milligan, chairman of
the non-profit corporation, point
ed out that all pilots donate their
services and time, and on at least
two occasions have been forced
to spend the night away from
home before returning from mer
cy missions.
This was the fourth trip made
by the plane since it was placed
in service last January. Miliican
said. The Liphams were the
fourth and fifth patients receiv
ing emergency ambulance trans
