Less Water Than Usual Stored In Columbia River Basin, But Report Early ruKXLSfiD un L,ess water the Soil conservation service's than usual is stored in snow that lies over the Columbia River basin. As a result, the outlook right now is for a 1954 runoff In the main river only 84 per cent of the 10 year average. The year's first water forecast for the basin, released Saturday by the U. S. Weather Bureau and the Soil Conservation Service pointed out however that while this is-the situation now, there is plenty of time for winter to change it. Indeed, only about a third of the winter's accumulation of snow is normally at hand by Jan. 1. The expected two-thirds hold the an swer to what can be . expected in the way of irrigation water sup plies next summer. If precipitation is heavier than average, an aver age year may be had; and if snows continue light, the water outlook will continue to fall. On the main stem of the Colum bia, the forecast for this water year at the three key measurement points as of Jan. 1 was: At Grand Coulee, Wash., 70,100,000 acre feet of runoff which' is 87 per cent of the 1942-51 average; at Trinidad, Wash., 76,800,000 acre feet, 86 per cent; and at The Dalles, Ore., 117, 000,000 acre feet, 84 per cent.

Lm, Mir. ar Men Ta Take at snow survey leader for the basin, notes that nearly all important trib utary streams have snow packs with under average' water content.

The situation improved in moving northward un til in the extreme Upper Columbia in British Columbia, the autumn precipitation was slightly above average.

Mc Carthy (R-Wis), who has spent most of the past year hunting Reds, moved Into a new field Saturday investigation of charges that gov ernment officials have lined their own pockets out of federally-financed Alaskan development proj ects. McCarthy announced Friday that his Senate investigations sub-committee will start closed hearings next week to consider reports from its staff probers who recently re turned after two months' in the ter ritory. The subcommittee has authority to examine any situation where federal funds are Involved. Since McCarthy became chair man, it has been devoting most at tention to charges of Communist penetration in the federal service. Recent published reports that the administration had induced Mc Carthy to work in other fields brought a flat denial from the sen ator. But he said "there is nothing to indicate that Communism will be an important element" in the Alas ka innulrv the first major pro). ect announced for his subcommit tee in this new session of Congress. McCarthy said Uiere was "no sig nificance at all" in this, adding: "This case just happens to be rea dy now." ' The senator said his subcommit tee will continue its Investigation of Communism In several areas. The Alaska probe, he explained, will cover charges "of false claims, bribery, misapplication .of govern ment funds and waste off millions of dollars In various development projects financed directly or indi rectly by the federal government." In this, connection, he said the subcommittee would examine "the conduct of various individuals who held governmental positions deal ing- with Alaska to determine wheth er some of the Alaskan develop ment activities were operated for the personal financial advantage of some ot the government officials Involved," McCarthy said both past and present government employes as well as private individuals may be involved, but he stressed that theubcommlttee has received "ab solutely no evidence which would indicate any wrong-doing on the part of the present governor of Alaska" (B, Frank Heintzleman). The subcommittee chairman said the situation under 8tudy goes back over the period .since World War . II. He added that serious efforls have been' made to Improve con ditions since early last year, when the Republicans took over the na tional administration. McCarthy declined to discuss .In detail the projects Involved, but he did say that mining and hous ing developments were among them. Secretary of the Interior McKay said his department had an inves tigator working with the subcom mittee staff. He added in a state ment the probe "will result In cleaning up a bad set of circum stances that have been allowed to drift. SPEAKER PORTLAND UH Goodwin J.

Any physician in Klam ath County will be pleased to have you come to his office or call to arrange for possible future services. At this interview, he can obtain what ever information may be necessary for taking care of your future medical requirements, and you will have an opportunity to become ac quainted with him and his office staff.
