Arch Work Returns To Portland Office After Iraq Visit R. A. (Arch) Work, Portland, head of the water supply fore casting section of the watershed planning branch, U.S. soil con servation service, returned to his office this week after spend ing several months in Iraq as a watershed consultant. Work formerly had his head quarters in Medford, but they were moved to Portland about three years ago. He is in charge of snow surveys and water fore casting for most of the western United States. . In a letter received in Med ford, Work said: Valiant Siruggl "One only need travel far from home, perhaps to areas of the vital Middle East, to get a con ception of how fully blessed we Americans are in our God-given heritage of natural resources. Those people in Iraq, through wise use of their oil resources, are making a valiant struggle to recapture some of their water shed assets, but their problems are great indeed. We, here, are in the enviable position, given the wisdom and will to do so, to prevent the ravages which come to watersheds and croo lands severely used for thous ands of years. "My assignment in Iraq was to develop and initiate a snow survey system as a basis of run off forecasting for management of the two large flood-control and irrigation reservoirs now under construction, and for two additional reservoirs in the plan ning stage in the Tigris river and its principal tributaries in Iraq. Consequently, most of my time was in the high mountains of Kurdistan, which tower to 10.000 feet or so and receive rather heavy snowfalls." Work was in the Mid-East on leave from the soil conservation service as a consultant to a pri vate American engineering firm, and went with the consent and support of the U.S. government, i HENRY S BROILER and 1206 NO.
