The bureau of reclamation hna released n synottnta of Its report of nn Investigation Into the prob lem of refloodlng a portion of Lower Klnmiith luko. In extremo northern California, and of pro viding better rcKiilntlnii of the water surfaro of Tule lake. The nrogrnm out linen would require apeciul legislation before It could he inndo effective. The report Indlcnt.'B that tho work railed for would require I U 7 4 .- 77,1, and that revenues from lease of paaiuro lamia would re pay tho coat In about 12 yours. A major consideration in diall ing the pinna wna to luiprovo Tule luko sump ns a bird refuge and to restore Lower Klnmaih lake as a wild waterfowl breeding and fuelling grnuiida. The hlo lnglcal survey co-operuled In the survey. Tho refloodlng nf Lower Kliiin nth lake hy pumping from Tule ake would ruitall dust sioinin which now nffllct tho soulhfi-ti end of the Klamnlh federal recla mation project and would provide water for Irrigation of onme rich pasture landa near Lower Klnm- nth lake. Tho synoptda of the report la as follows: The plnim of development of I lie Klninnth project conteniplnt- ill1 Army Planes Find an "Enemy Ship' mmmans- , Out ed, aa one of Its featurea, tho partial unwutering of the bed of Tulo lake and the Inclusion of such landa aa a part of the farm ed area of the project. Such par tial iinwnterliig of the bed of Tule Inko hua bucn accomplished by tho construction of Clear luko and (lerber reservolra toeother with a diversion dam on Lost lllvor and a 1200 accond-foot capacity channel from thla dam to the Klninuih river to regulate and deflect Lost river floods, and tho construction of dikes In Tule lake sump to conflno return flow and waste waters which enter Tulo lake, within a sump area of ap proximately 37.000 ecroa where they mo evaporated. During tho period of low run off which has prevailed between 1918 nnd 19:7 the reservoirs and diversion channel have been ado nuato to prevent any flood flow from l.oat river entering Tulo lake. Iteturn flow from tho par tially developed farming nrca out side of tho retaining dikes was evaporated from a part of the area set nsldo for tho Bump. A large part of tho sump area has been leased for farming purposes and tho net nccumutated revenues therefrom of nearly $1,000,000 havo been set aside, ns provided by law, In a fund to be applied Inter to the repayment of tho construction charges of tho Tule Inko division of the project. With the Increased fnnr.lng activltlea on the area tributary to the Tule Inko sump and below tho Lost 1 03 vmwm a (Army Air Corpt photo from NBA) river diversion works, return flow hua Increased materially In re cent years and lands which have been leased in the puat are being flooded. Kvcn under normal con dlllona of runoff tho loaned area wit hiu tho sump will be flooded, with resultant loss of revenue and nn unusually high Inflow from Lost river might even endanger tho funned land of tho project ouialdo tho retaining dikes of the sump. In the project operations Lower Klamath lake, separated from Tule lako by a range of hills, has been unwntercd. That portion lying In California bus been found to he unsuitable for general farm ing purposes becauao of soils and alkali conditions. Tbe prevailing westerly wIiiUb collect the dust from this dry lake bed with the result that the project Is sub jected to dust storms of consld ernblo magnitude. Tho Tule lake sump haa been developed by the U. S. biological survey as a bird refuge but fluctuating water sur faces are unsatisfactory for propa gation and tho stngnant waters cause botulism. It Is highly de sirable that the community be protected from tho dust nuisance, that the bird refuge bo maintain ed and extended to Include that portion of Lower Klamath lake in California, and that as much aa possible of the leased lands be retained In their present status ns a source of revenuo to the pro ject. To accomplish these results, this report presents the follow ing plan. Approximately 17,000 acres are to be set aside as a central sump by dikes lower In elevation than the present re taining dikes protecting tbe set tled nren. This would permit the flooding of the outer sump during periods of heavy Inflow from Lost river but not endanger tho developed farms and homes outside the retaining dikes of the total sump. It Is proposed to In stall pumps of 160 sonond-foot capacity In pump the excess water of the sump which would not bo removed by evaporation and de liver them through a 7000-foot tunnel Into the Lower Klamath lake area where they would be used flrat to Irrigate lands for pasture purposes adjacent to the lake and, second, for bird refuge purposes In the Inko bed Itself, Ample protection would bo pro vided against flooding of entered landa by the operation of the proposed plan. Approximately 20.000 acres of highly productive Tule lake lands heretofore leased but now being rapidly lost by encroaching waters, would be re ed for leasing and Improved by a system of drains and canals. These lands should not be enter ed as they will occasionally be flooded. Hlx thousand acres of good pasture land would be made available for leasing on the west side of Lower Klamath lake and 5000 acres of a poorer grade of pasture lands on the east side. The bird refuge In Tule lake would be made to function prop erly. A refuge of about 17.000 ncrea would be established In Lower Klamath lake. The flood ing of this lake for a bird refuge and the Irrigation border lands for pasture purposes would ellm Inato the dust nuisance which now endangers the health and well-being of the community. The estimated total cost of the works to be built by the bureau of reclamation la 1974.773 which Includes $123,155 of project costs assessed against the lands of Low er Klamath lake In California which, for repayment purposes, will be eliminated from the pres ent project, If developed Into a bird refuge. It Is estimated that the net returns from leasing of the lands made available or re tained for such purposes by the proposed plan will be $61,700 annually for the first five years and $98,775 annually thereafter. On this basis net revenues would IS KLAMATH FALLS BRANCH THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF PORTLAND MEMBER FEDERAL DEPOSIT How's Your 7; kiss-o-meter!

It Is proposed that part of the net leasing revenues oe used for some years to finance desirable improvements In the distribution system of the Tule lake division to reduce canal losses and lessen the waters that need to be pump ed Into Lower Klamath lake.

Each man claimed the babies Jose De Jesus and Ana Maria. Each man said he loved tha mother, 36-year-old widow. Each man wanted both bullies, all or nothing. The blood tests proved nothing except that either or both men might be father of the babies, Dr. Bundesen aald. "I don't know what I'll do now," he said. "I'll have to sleep on It tonight and then get both men together tomorrow. Perhaps w can get them to divide." He said both men said they wished to marry the mother. Thoy can't do that because both are married and neither is legally sep arated from hia wife. The twin's mother has had 12 other children, the eldest 18, the youngest 2.
