March Stream Flows nnegBomi
oderaft eOy To Seriously Low
m
Portland (U.R) Stream
flows during March were mode
rately to seriously low over all
the Pacific Northwest, accord
ing to the Department of Interior
Ceological Survey office here.
Record low stream flows for
the month were recorded at 13
gauging stations on Northwest
streams. Levels of ground water
were below average in eight key
wells out of the 19 surveyed.
The survey showed that some
3,000,000 acre-feet of water was
released from storage in seven
major power reservoirs in the
Columbia system. This compared
unfavorably with the 1,105,000
cere-feet released last year.
Storage was down about 1,400,
000 from last year.
The geological office said Ore
gon rivers at which record low
flews were recorded were: The
Grand Ronde at La Grande: the
south fork of the Walla Walla
near Milton; the Umatilla near
Umatilla, and the John Day at
Service Creek.
Washington rivers included
the Skagit near Concrete and the
Snake near Clarkston. In British
Columbia, the Sproat River near
Alberni was at an all-time March
low.
Streams at Record Low
Record low Idaho stream
flows were recorded on the
Coeur d'Alene at Enaville; the
Peyette near Horseshoe Bend;
the Salmon at Whitebird and the
Clearwater at Spalding, Kamish
and Ahsahka.
Precipitation during the
month was about 50 per rent of
average in western Montana and
the Cascades 'of Oregon and
Washington; about average in
southern British Columbia and
central Idaho, and 40 to 75 per
cent of normal in southern Idaho
and central Oregon and Washington.

Argentine Catholics
Continuing Protest
3 West Sixth Street
Medford, , Oregon'
Buenos Aires, Argentina
(U.R) Groups of young Roman
Catholics braved . possible ar
rest Friday night by staging im
promptu anti-government dem
enstrations in the streets of Bue
nos Aires.
There were no reports of vio
lence or of arrests. Similar dem
onstrations Thursday night re
sulted in the arrest of "several"
persons but Church sources said
all were released in a matter of
hours.
Chanted Slogans
Thousands of Catholics throng
ed churches in Buenos Aires for
Good Friday services. The ob
servances were quiet throughout
the day buti at nightfall small
groups of young Catholics began
to circulate from church to
church. They chanted the same
pro-church slogans that touched
off police action during Thurs
day's demonstrations.
The original demonstrators
were joined by other Catholics
and soon several groups num
bering up to 500 each were on
the march.
The marchers maintained or
der in their ranks and disbanded
quietly after demonstrating their
support for the church in the
running feud with the govern
ment of President Juan D. Peron.
Defied Police
Participants in the Holy
Thursday religious procession
had defied police orders to march
into the vast Plaza de Mnyo in
the heart of Buenos Aires. There
they held a mass meeting that
blocked traffic for nearly an
hour.
Police had granted permission
for the parade but ordered it
ended at the Church of Our Lady
of Monserrat. In previous years
the procession had disbanded be
fore the metropolitan cathedral
in the Plaza de Mayo.
Authoritative diplomatic sour
ces said the Argentine ambas
sador to the Vatican would dis
cuss with top officials here the
prospects of negotiating a con
cordate between Argentina and
the Holy See along lines of that
recently concluded between
Spain and the Vatican.
Peron has summoned Ambas
sador Carlos Oliva Velez back
to Buenos Aires for consultations
on the church-state controversy
