Joint Development of Columbia
Reported Cleared of Obstacles
Washington-fUPD-A Colum
bia river study group said
yesterday there are "no seri
ous conflicts" remaining be
tween the United States and
Canada over joint water re
source development of the
vast Columbia basin.
The International Columbia
River Engineering board
made the optimistic report
following two days of execu
tive conferences in Chicago
last week.
In the past, Canada and the
United States have had sharp
differences over development
of the Columbia river, which
originates in the Dominion
and flows through the Pacific
Northwest.
No Serious Obstacles
But the International Co
lumbia River Engineering
board said in a report to the
International Joint commis
sion, a U.S.-Canadian agency,
there are now "no serious
physical obstacles to the co-
Pear Blossom Festival
Topic for Roundtable
The Pear Blossom Festival
and Sportsfair, which is sched
uled in Medford the week
end of April 11 and 12, will
be discussed at the Jackson
County Chamber of Com
merce roundtable luncheon at
the Jackson hotel Monday
noon.
John Watkins, chairman of
the Pear Blossom Festival;
Cliff McGinty, chairman of
the Crater Lions club commit
tee in" charge of the Sports
fair; Miss Pat Rushton of
Jacksonville, Miss Jackson
County; and Miss Sportsfair,
who was selected last night,
will be present.
operative developments stud
ied by the board, nor are
there many problems of con
flicting interests of the two
countries."
The board, whose recom
mendations will be taken un
der advisement by the com
mission, said further that it
is "physically and econom
ically feasible to develop a
system of basin power plants
that will produce an average
of more than 16,000,000 kilo
watts utilizing about 50,000,
000 acre-feet of storage.
"In the United States, con
tinuing economic development
in the Columbia river basin
quires further development of
the river and major tributar
ies for power and flood con
trol purposes," the board said.
Storage Projects
"These objectives would be
furthered by construction of
storage projects on the Upper
Columbia and Kootenay riv
ers operated under Interna
tional agreement.
"In Canada the only imme
diate market for large blocks
of addition Columbia Basin
power is located on the West
Coast, involving extensive
transmission facilities if this
power is to be generated at
Canadian projects in the ba
and in the general region re- f sin," the report said. "More
over tnere are no major flood
problems in the Columbia Ba
sin in Canada."
The board added that "sub
stantial blocks of power gen
erated downstream in the
United States from storage in
Canada resulting from coop
erative developments by the
two countries could be readily
absorbed by the growing
power load in the Vancouver
area of British Columbia."

Single Entrance to
Be Made at Diamond
Lake Campground
Continued operation of the
Diamond lake overnight camp
ing area on a charge basis was
discussed at a meeting last
week of forest service offi
cials and the permittees, ac
cording to Vondis E. Miller,
forest supervisor of Umpqua
national forest.
The permittees, Larry Neely
and Bill Cox, Medford, met
with-Miller, Lands Assistant
Ray Hampton, District Ranger
Bob Leavengood and Recrea
tion Assistant Bill Lowery
"to make plans for better op
erations and provisions for
the camping public with im
proved facilities and services
this coming year," it was re
ported. The one major change in
operation of the campground
as a result of the conference
will be - establishment of a
single entrance across the
highway from the guard sta
tion where each camping
partly will be checked in and
out of camp. All other en
trances to the overnight area
will be closed.
Overcrowding Discussed
Overcrowding far beyond
the capacity and facilities of
the camp, which has been the
greatest problem during the
past three years, occupied
much of the group's discus
sion. It was agreed that posi
tive measures must be taken
to reduce the number of
campers in order to prevent
destruction of the area and to
give jcampers "a more enjoy
able camping experience."
Installation of additional
sanitation facilities and more
efficient servicing by better
trained personnel were a part
of the plan adopted.
Miller said campers will be
encouraged to camp only at
designated spots having a
table and stove. When all
units are occupied, the camp-

Sweet Home Veneer
Ruled T-H Violator
Portland-CPC-Sweet Home
Veneer corporation of Sweet
Home violated the Taft-Hartley
law, a national labor re
lations board trial examiner
ruled Friday.
But the examiner recom
mended dismissal of com
plaints that the company had
fired two employees because
of union activity.
The AFL-CIO Lumber and
Sawmill Workers union
brought the charge against
the company.
Examiner Martin S. Ben
nett said the company com
mitted unfair labor practice
by preventing employees from
engaging in union activities
during non-working hours.
He said, however, that evi
dence did not support a claim
by the union that the firm
fired the two employees be
cause of their union activities. .
