Quinn, Eureka, making it illegal to divert the waters of cither the Klamath or Trinity rivers into the Sacra mento river watershed. The bill was opposed by Sen. niivnr Carter. EcddinK. who con tended that the U. S. bureau of reclamation was making a study of the Trinity diversion and that no conclusion should be reacnea until the findings of the study are annonunced. However, Quinn and other supporters claimed that fish life would be impaired in both streams if their waters were di- PRESI DENTIA L APPEAL MADE FOR RED GROSS WASHINGTON, March 21 (.T) Four million workers, spurred by a presidential appeal to every American to help meet needs of fighting men, renewed their ef- forts today to collect $200,000, 000 for the Red Cross. " President Roosevelt called for over-subscription of the-1945 war fund in a brief radio ad dress last night. 'This is no call for charity." he said. "This is our chance to serve those who serve us." Mr. Roosevelt said he couian t predict when victory would come. But there is nothing un Dredictable. he added, about 7,500,000 Americans overseas or fighting afloat and another 70, 000 in enemy prison camps. '- "The need never was great er," he asserted. "It will not soon be less." The president said he could testify from personal observa tion to usefulness of the Red Cross in battle zones. He said it has sent food, clothing . and medicines through the barbed wire of enemy prison com pounds, collected blood plasma that saved thousands of lives, provided refreshment, enter tainment and good cheer and linked fighting men with loved ones at home. The fund drive ends March 31. E Ward's ambulance service, which has operated in Klamath Falls for the past 12 years, has been sold to Jerry and Margaret Mentch, 605 Delta, it was an nounced today by Mrs. Marguer ite M. Ward of Ward's Funeral home. Press of business and lack of experienced help, were given as the reasons for disposing of the ambulance service which' Mrs. Ward found took up almost a full-time staff. The service will go into effect March 30, Mrs. Ward said. Mr. and Mrs. Mentch have lived here for some time. Mrs. Mentch is a member of the Ore gon Women's Ambulance corps and Mentch has assisted the or ganization in making calls, as well as assisting in instruction, Oregon Dean To Be Speaker It has been announced that Dean U.

Dr. Allan Taft of the state fish and game commission said "no assurance has been given by either, the army engineers or bureau that enough water would be left in the streams to support fish life" if the diversions were made. Legislation continuing the state farm production council another two years was in the hands of the assembly today with tile unanimous approval of the senate. The bill authored by Senators George Hatrield, Merced county and Bradford S. Crittenden, Stockton, carries no appropria tion, but a companion measure to follow authorizes use of an unexpended balance of approxi mately a million dollars from the original appropriation made un der the food and fiber act. Chief function of the council is the recruiting of farm labor to maintain the war time food supply. Passed by the assembly late yesterday and transmitted to the senate today was ' another pro posal for a constitutional amend ment authorizing annual ses sions of the legislature. The measure is in different form from that beaten twice by the people at elections. The new form, Assemblyman Albert Wol lenberg declared, meets many of the objections which caused de feat previously. . As passed, with only As semblyman Edward O'Day, San Francisco, voting in the negative, the 30-day constitutional recess of the regular session would be retained. In even numbered years the legislature would meet merely to prepare a state budget and consider any emergency leg islation laid before it by the gov ernor. General legislation would be considered at regular sessions in odd numbered years. The bill, if approved by the senate, would go on, the next general election Daiioi.
