ject in California.
"I don't know anybody against
it," said Rep. Clair Engle (D
Calif), author of the bill and
chairman of the House Interior
committee which handled it.
Least Controversial
It was the first, and apparent
ly the least controversial, of four
major water and power projects
pending in this Congress to come
to a House vote.
A bill to authorize a S160,
000,000 version of the Upper
Colorado Project is awaiting a
vote by the full Interior commit
tee after winning subcommittee
backing last week. The Senate
has passed a $1,500,000 version.
The Senate Interior Commit
tee has recommended a bill au
thorizing the $156,000,000 Fry
ing Pan-Arkansas Project and
House committee hearings are to
be completed shortly on a simi
lar measure.
Hells Canyon Vote
The Senate committee is
scheduled to vote Thursday on a
bill to authorize the $350,000,000
Hells Canyon dam on the Idaho
Oregon border. House hearings
on the project will be held in
July.
The Trinity project would di
vert some 700,000 acre-feet of
water from Trinity river, nor
mally flowing directly into the
Pacific, into California's Central
Valley. On its way, it would go
through four power houses with
a total installed capacity of 233,
000 kilowatts.
Carpenters, Employers
Set Strike Conference

Mediator Leroy Smith called
representatives of striking car
penters and employers into a

the public interest because no
progress was being made by the
principals in getting the strike
settled. Major construction here
has been halted by the three
week long walkout over the un
ion's demand for a 10-cent hour
ly pay increase.
PETROLEUM AREAS
