TO KLAMATH WOMAN
The Bronze Star for meritor
ious service has been awarded
Natalie E. Gould of the Ameri
can Red Cross, according to
word received here from the war
department by Miss Gould's sis
ter, Mrs. Lamar Townsend;
Miss Gould made her home in
Klamath Falls in 1937 and, at
that time, was employed in the
law office of U. S. Balentine.
The medal was given for mer
itorious service in North Africa.
The citation said that Miss Gould
"displayed courage, tact and tire
less energy in planning, direct
ing and supervising the exten
sive recreational program which
contributed greatly to the morale
and welfare of the patients.
"Miss Gould was severely in
jured near the end of the Tuni
sian campaign but refused trans
fer to a base hospital and per
formed her work of caring for
sick and wounded service men
prior to her complete recovery."
At that time she was assigned
to the 77th evacuation hospital
and later was transferred to
England and subsequently par
ticipated in the invasion of
France. She is now somewhere
in France with a club mobile
unit.
Mrs. Townsend hopes to make
a trip to her former home in
Maneo, N. C, when her sister re
ceives leave to. return to the
United States.

times and places, particularly

city, town, or local association
whose interests may be affected

tion for development of the
river system. They will be given
an opportunity to express their
views anci 10 present any pertin
ent information and data and to
suggest changes considered de
sirable and to discuss the plans
under consideration. All pertin
ent matters so presented will
be given consideration in the
final preparation of the report.
Reasons should be advanced to
justify statements presented and
the text should be confined to
the subject under consideration.
Oral statements will be heard,
but for accuracy or record, all
important facts and arguments
should be submitted In writing
as the reports of the hearings
will he forwarded for considera
tion by the reviewing authorities.
Written statements (six copies)
may be handed to the under
signed at the hearing or mailed
to him beforehand. Legible
reduced copies of maps and
prints are acceptable when their
substitution for the originals
will reduce the bulk of the sub
mitted material.
The plans tentatively being
studied at this time contemplate
the storage of flood waters, in
new reservoirs in the upper
Klamath and the Trinity river
basins and the diversion of .the
developed surplus waters to the
Central Valley Project of Cali
fornia for future hydroelectric
power and irrigation use,
It haa been found that the con
struction of a large reservoir
on the Sprague river to supple
ment the existing storage on
Upper Klamath lake would de
velops an adequate and depend
able supply for all the ultimate
water needs in the basin above
Keno and would also provide
additional surplus water for di
version via the Klamath-Pit
route. In this scheme of de
velopment, the controlled waters
would flow through existing
natural channels to Lake Ewauna
at Klamath Falls. From this
point, a portion of the surplus
waters would be routed through
a main conduit following the
existing waterways to Tule lake
and thence through diversion
works into the Pit River basin.
Other surplus waters would be
routed in improved natural chan
nels through Klamath straits
near Holland or Ady to perman
ent wild-life refuges on Lower
Klamath lake and thence
through the existing drainage
tunnel into Tule lake, where
they would join the other waters
in the main conduit.
Consideration has been given
to the Trinity-Sacramento di
version for supplying additional
irrigation water to the Central
Valley project and for develop
ing hydroelectric power as con
templated in the California State
Water Plan. The utilization of
conservation reservoirs on head
water streams of the Trinity
basin and on other tributaries
of the lower Klamath, primarily
for improving and propogating
migratory fish life in the lower
basin, together with the wildlife
problems of the Upper Klamath
basin, are under joint study with
the U. S. Fish and Wildlife
service and are considered as
very important elements that
need to be properly evaluated
before any final conclusions and
recommendations are reached on
plans of development for the
entire watershed.
It apepars that the Klamath
Pit and the Trinity-Sacramento
diversions would be economical
ly feasible when the need for
additional irrigation water sup
plies develops in the Central
Valley project of California.
Hence, the primary purpose of
this investigation Is to set forth
and properly evaluate all of the
Important elements, with a view
to formulating a program of ef
ficient conservation of the di
verse water resources of the en
tire Klamath watershed. It is
hoped that a useful report can
be prepared that will serve as a
