TO
INVESTIGATE
POWER SITES
A. M. Thomus, secretary of the
Kluinuth irrigation district und
public power protagonist here,
disclosed toduy excerpts of a let
ter from an Interior department
otflclul to the effect that the bu
reau will make an investigation
of power sites on the Klumath
river with regard to coordina
tion between the Columbia river
and Shasta dum power develop
ments. The letter is from Abe Fortes,
chief of the power division of the
department. Thomas said that
In It, Forlas referred to the pow
er possibilities of the Klamath
river and particularly the Mc
Cormlek site, now owned by the
Irrigation project and other ad
jacent rlpariun lands.
Hero is the quotation from
Forlas letter as released by
Thomas:
"About this (McCormlck silo,
etc.,) 1 can only say that utiliza
tion of it will be considered in
the courso of the bureau's inves
tigation of power sites on the
Klamath river. This investiga
tion Is a definite part of our
plans for the Immediate postwar
future. I have no doubt that it
will be made as soon as avail'
able- manpower and appropria.
lions will ncrmit. i
"It is intended that the Inves
tigation of the power and water
resources of Klamath river will
bo of a comprehensive nature,
paying due regard to coordlna.
Hon with the Bonneville-Grand
Coulee power system on the
north and the Central Valley
Shasta Dam system to the south.
Tho result of the inter-connection
of these two larger power
systems with such development
as may be Justified on Klamath
river should make available all
of the low-priced public power
this area will ever reasonably
need.
"I trust that the foregoing will
Indicate both to you and to your
friends in this area that we have
an active interest in their pre
sent and future problems and
arc planning to be of all assist
ance possible in working them
out.
"Sincerely yours,
"ABE FORTAS, '
. Undersecretary."

ADVERTISERS!
Do you ever think of the advertising available
through your newspaper as a package of read
ers, rather than so many inches on a printed
page? :
Actually the success or failure of your ad de
pends largely on what you put in itbut what
you buy, for any size ad, is a package of poten
tial readers.
The following charr shows a comparative pack
age of readers and the average cost per column
inch for that package.
1945 Package
1938 fackage
1932 Package
. Price 62.8c
Price 53.2c -
Price 64.5c
Each line in the above "packages" represents 1000 paid sub
scribers. The price' it the average rate per column inch. The
1945 "package" represents today's circulation, and the 64 'i
cent rate it the average rate for the first nine months of 1944
plus 8 cents. (An increase of 8 cents per column inch becomes
effective for-display advertising Jan. 1, 1945).
The Herald and News believes that the value
of its advertising has increased materially in
recent years. Growth of firms which have con
sistently used Herald and News advertising,
and the growth of our advertising itself, bears
this out.
This Is not a bid for increased advertising. Newsprint Is still
tcarca and our supply is sharply limited.
