The scheme embraces a big stor aee dam on SoraEue river to store as much or more water than is at present stored in Up per Klamaln lake. The.engincers propose to divert auoui ouu sec ond feet, which they, claim is "surplus water." " '' Opposition in this area is based partly on a fear that any diversion scheme might jeopar dize the full use of Klamath watershed water for agricultural oDeration and development in this region, with the danger that once use in Central Valleys is es tablished, conflicting claims for the water might develop. The question of what constitutes "surplus water" will probably be raised, as well as doubts of the permanent value of any "guarantees" given this basin that it will get full use of the water. Numerous other argu ments wul probably be present ed by Klamath basin interests. The full text of Calland's let. ter to The Herald and News will be published in this newspaper tomorrow. In it, the assistant re gional reclamation director points out that the reclamation bureau has a substantial invest ment in the Klamath basin and is interested in its welfare. He said irrespective of the needs of Central Valley, the bur eau would not recommend di version of any except surplus waters from the Klamath basin. No water needed for full de velopment of all the irrigable lands would be considered as surplus, nor would water need ed for municipal or industrial purposes or maintenance of fish and wildlife.
