Shasta Dam Dedicated
During Celebrations
Redding, Cal., June 17 U.R)
Shasta dam, the key structure
of California's vast central val
ley project, was formally dedi
cated today "to the foresight of
those who conceived and wrote
the federal reclamation laws."
William E. Warne, assistant
secretary of the interior, repre
senting President Truman at the
dedication, described the dam
as "a monument to the people
who have made California
great."
"It is the, fruit of the dreams
and work of millions," he said.
Courage Alto Cited
"By the dedication today of
this great dam," Warne de
clared, "we commemorate the
foresight of those who conceived
and wrote the federal reclama
tion laws as well as the courage
and the vision of the California
pioneers of a still earlier day
who fought against land mon
opoly and sought to bring water
to the land."
Warne told a dedication audi
ence that the central valley proj
ect as it now stands is "only
the beginning" of reclamation
in California. Federal e n g i n
eers, he said, already are con
sidering further development
along the Feather, American,
Stanislaus, Upper San Joaquin,
Kings and Kern rivers.
The number two interior de
partment man attacked oppon
ents of the federal 160-acre land
limitation for water usage as
"selfish interests" that have op
posed protection of the people
against land monopoly for years.
But he said the people have
"achieved victory" and the 160
acre limitation "is fast becom
ing an academic issue."
Warne added, however, that
the situation was not so peace
ful on the issue of public versus
private power in California. He
lashed out specifically at the
Pacific Gas and Electric com
pany for attempting to "thwart"
the development of public
power.
Warne's address was given as
