Steady Rains Bring End
To California Dry Spell
CHICAGO, Feb. 6 (P Winter
carved a climatic hodge podge
across the naUon today. There was
lots of show tn many sect ions the
heaviest In the Middle Atlantic re
gion and Kentucky. Rain and sleet
pelted areas In the South and
Southwest and travel on some high
ways skidded to a slow pace.
Cold weather, with temperatures
ranging from freestng to sub-iero
levels, continued to envelop the
northern half of the country. And

Cuts Forced

disputed the voluntary character of
the curtailment.
"The PG&E called me Wednesday
and told me I would have to shut
down and that was all there was
to it." he said.
Another milt owner was quoted as
saying the company threatened to
I pull his master switch unless he
dosed.
Hood said the conference with the
PG&E over charges of discrimina
tion probably would be held in Red
Bluff, Tehama county.
The company spokesman acknowl
edged that PG&E cut off Red Bluff
from power for 30 minutes Wednes
day because of a serious overload
on the Cottonwood. Shasta county,
substation. He added that he hoped
this situation would not recur.
Increased Flow
The Shasta dam watermaster in
creased the flow of water from this
huge central valley reservoir In an
attempt to ease the power shortage.
Martin Bloty said he was upping
the flow to 5000 feet from 3600 be
cause the last storm had brought
a aafe snow reserve to the reser
voir's watershed. ,
PG&E said the present rim had
not eased the 300.000 horsepower
' drain caused by Irrigation pumps
j In the San Joaquin and Sacramento
; valleys. The spokesman declared
that a soaking rain would bring
temporary relief and a good snow
pack In the mountains would b a
long range measure.

And Sullivan made another dis.

battleship Kentucky and the battle

Indefinitely.

arguments with the aid force about
moving In on their strategic bomb

However, the announcement fol

chief of naval operations, that the
navy will build carriers capable ol
