fff A i?)(lRRR A M P-nnflRRflfp A Mis M Ma It $ m la i If if rm s Br FRANK JENKINS ' Congressman Harlan Kagen, of Hanford. In the San Joaquin val ley, representing Calllornla'a 14th cong reaalonal district, suggest this week that tht California state leg islature rewrite the law on how much water can be retained by California's counties of origin. He uys it la unrealistic to talk about solving water deficiency problems in California until a linn definition of the counties of origin Is stated. He suggests that the law be amended to allow the state to cal culate the water needs of the coun ty of origin for local projects. This, he adds, would LIMIT THE COUNTY JU , m" AMOUNT, and release the surplus for use elsewhere. Let's take a sharp look at his proposal. t.. -,.,. naitris far lrical pur poses ol these counties of origin (meaning the camornia, counties where the water originates) would be calculated by. the state as u whole. After the calculation was made, these- counties where the water originates would be LIMIT ED to the amount of water- allot tedto flwrn.s . ' ' j-.W Whatever surplus there might be, AT THE TIME THE ALLOT fipwn uriA uAnR would be- si- i j , n n lcAU'iAr. in the state. . -' " ' That is to say: The water needs of these coun ties of origin would be .FROZEN a, kn amminf flt hv thft State St the time the calculations and the allotments were maao.

Where would the ADDITIONAL WATER come from? ' That is an Important question not at some distant time in tne future, but RIGHT NOW, At any rate, I hope these coun ties where the bulk of California'? water originates do not suffer the evil fete of having their local wa ter needs calculated and allotted on a basis that will leave them hifh and DRY in the future when it is aulte probable that their water needs for water will be far greater than their present needs. Here In the valley of the Klam ath river which Includes both California and Oregon counties we have to remember that if that happens . it will greatly increase the sressure for export of OUR water and we aren't going to have any more water here man we are going to NEED.

LLL2 w i Price Five Oata a rages KF Court Snubs State Road Plan A State Highway Commission proposal reported by the Associa ted Press from Portland under which a road construction project between Klamath 'Falls and Med ford via Lake of the Woods would be carried out, If Jackson and Klamath counties would put up $794,000, got a cold reception from the county court here Friday. . According to the ' ' Associated Press, the highway commission gave tentative approval to the project ' which calls for the state to spend 1680,000 with Klamath and Jackson counties putting up 5194,000, plus the right of way. NEW DEAL "This is the first we havelieard of that deal," County Judge U, E. Reeder declared.. "At a recent meeting here attended by various interested parties, including State Representative Ed Geary, an al together different proposal : was made." - County Commissioner. Ed Gowan said Klamath and Jackson counties had been assured by the highway commission that it would build a road between Lake of the Woods Junction and McAllister Springs, if the counties would maintain the road as well as provide the -right of way, This proposed stretch of highway would link improved roads now m existence ANXIOUS TO AID Although, members of Klamath County Court want no part of the state's latest proposal, - they will be anxious to aid In any possible way development of a new Klam ath Falls-Medford highway. , - Judge Reeder pointed out that such a route would make, acces sible vast timber tracts. "This timber would be trucked to Klamath Falls mills," he added, "and greatly increase payrolls in Wis area." . . .. Commissioner Gowan was in clined to believe the report of the new proposed highway construction plan was in. error. The original road building project between Lake of the 'm Woods and McAllister Springs, he said, was approved by all Interested parties, AGREEMENT "Under an agreement to . main tain the road," Gowan continued, "the two counties Klamath and Jackson would be assuming a great burden. Keeping the road clear during the winter would be a . big job and very expensive. At the time of the meeting last month, it was understood that neither Klamath nor Jackson coun ty would assume any part of the construction cost. At. that time the Klamath County Court gave infor mal approval to the project and since then we have been awaiting additional Information." Members of the court are plan ning to ask the state highway commission for a clarification of the new proposal. School Site Howard R. Perrin, architect, was named Thursday evening by the board of directors of Klam ath School District No. 1 to de velop a master plan for school construction on the site now des ignated as the Mountain View housing site. District No. 1 Is the Klamath Falls elementary school district. Announcement was made today by Arnold Oralapp, superintendent of Klamath Falls schools, .who in dicated that this Is an important forward step In long range school planning for .this; area. This 25 acre project is one of several -which have been purchased during previous years as school building sites to take care of increased en rollment In the elementary and high schools as the Klamath country grows. ' The Mountain View site is bounded by Alameda, Williams and Main streets and Is a prize location with an unobstructed view of Mt. Shasta,' Gralapp pointed out. It is on the old natural flow ot hot water and closely adjacent to irrigation water which can make it one of the most beautiful schools in the system, he added. The master plan will Include site tflillsatlon. The first building, to be constructed with funds from the 1D56 serial levy, will house six classrooms for elementary grades which will relieve the pres sure now on Mills School. In suc cessive stages, following the out line of the master plan, the struc ture will be developed into a sev enth and eighth grade Junior high school ultimately to accommo date 1,000 students, Oralapp said. "We feel we are moving to ward a solution in which every school dollar will be Invested to the very best purpose," he said.

Phillips said thai the California commission does not favor the power company's request lor a renewal of the contract with the U.8. Bureau of Reclamation nn grounds that it will "give pri vate power priority over the waters- of Upper Klamath Lake In preference to water for irrigation, domeslio and municipal uses." He also said that since Congress has already approved negotiation by California and Oregon of an interstate compact for the distri bution of waters of the Klamath River, the signing roi a contract with Copco would be premature and would give the power company first, rights over the water. .10INT SESSION The two state commissions are convening ai the joint session to- day with representatives ol the USBR,' officials ol the power company and legal advisers of the two commissions.

At the same time,' the Soviet leader told the U.N. Assembly that Russia la giving careful considera tion o President Elsenhower's proposal for an "open sky" policy of mutual aerial Inspection of Rus sian and United States territory, i Re submitted a resolution urg ing the assembly to endorse a study of the Eisenhower plan, along with proposals submitted by Russia, Britain and France. In a major policy speech. Mo lotov pointed to recent Soviet re ductions of military forces and the surrender of the Soviet naval base . at Porxkala to Finland. Then he called upon the other big powers to show by similar deeds that they really want to end the world arms BEST MEET THE NEED 'Such a course," he said. "would undoubtedly best' meet the need to call off the armaments race, build up confidence among nations and end the cold war." Speaking of the Eisenhower aer ial inspection plan, he -said:- "We recognize the Importance of the President's proposals. We re gard them as an expression of a sincere desire to facilitate the solu tion of the important problem of International control and iiupec MOD.tv :' .;--''. . ''- He said thatt'usslg 'Wat partic ularly Interested in finding out whether the. Elsenhower plan ac tually would contribute to a re duction of armaments and to the outlawing of nuclear weapons.

Following the example of Dulles. Molotov spoke. In mild tones and avoided the sharp attacks which tht delegates had heard bo often In previous years. , Also, like Dulles, he hailed the Big Four summit talks In Ooni' a last July as a turning point in In ternational relations.
