All agencies, federal, state and county as well as sportsmen's groups and other interested parties are cooperating in a n effort to halt the needless slaying of the big whistling swans seen so frequently in the Basin. Here Tom Garrett, federal game manage ment agent, is shown looking over a pair of plywood profiles designed by Johnnie Johnson, Lower Lake refuge patrolmen, aimed at showing uninitiated, hunters the difference between the big, majestic swan and the smaller, but legal, snow goose. Last year there were 53 known kills of the swans in .the Basin area. It is, hoped that this figure will be lowered during the current hunting season. (JEW Strike In Third Day PITTSBURGH (UP) Westing house Electric Corp. and the CIO International Union of' Electrical Workers today sought a way out of a stalemated wage negotiations on the third day of a nationwide walkout of 44.000 workers at 30 company plants. ." Talks on wages, length of con tract and time study were sched uled between company and union representatives this morning. A 2'i hour session Tuesday broke up without appreciable prog ress. It brought complaints from James B. Carey, 1UE international president, that company negotia tors lacked "authority to make a settlement," he said. -' ; Robert D. Blasier, company vice president for industrial relations who did not attend Tuesday's ses sion but led Wcstinghouse negotia tors in previous meetings, denied the IUE chief's charges. "The negotiators who met with Mr. Carey . . . are fully authorized to make a settlement." Blasier said. He said he was absent from the bargaining table because he was "working with others in deal ing with the many employe and customer problems which have re sulted from Mr. Carey's ill-advised and unwarranted strike." A company spokesman said Claik Frame, manager of indus trial relations who represented Blasier, held full negotiating pow ers. The strike began Sunday alter the union rejected s, company of fer of a five-year contract calling for a total hourly wage increase of 23';. cents. The IUE has de manded a flat 15 cent hike in the current $2.10 average hourly wage for one year.

The ground breaking ceremony was held at the iite of the key fea ture of ine project, a 450-foot hiKh t-arth-fill dam at the juncture of the Trinity River . and Stewart Fork, about eight miles north of Lewiston. The ambitious project, most ex pensive reclamation project ever authorized by Congress as such, will divert annually from the Trin ity River seme 103,000 acre feet of water now wasting into the sea Plans call for completion by 1960. The project will also develop about l't million kilowatt hours of electric energy each year. i The water diverted throueh a series cf tunnels into Sacramento River at the existing Keswick Dam . would equal a full supply for 350, 000 acres of farmland. Most of the water, some 665,000 acre feet, will feed the proposed Sacramento Valley canals with a service area of 205,000 acres. The remainder plus return flows from the Sacramento canals will be car ried down the Delta-Mendota canal lor use. in San Joaquin Valley, The project will also provide a firm flow of 130,000 acre feet down the Trinity River even in the driest years. Benefits of the project are fig ured to exceed three times its cost, making it in th words of Rep. Clair Engle (D-Callf) "unequalled in feasibility and magnitude any where In the United States." , Some features of the giant proj ect were still in the process of de sign and investigation. Tne Bureau of Reclamation has under study the possibility that the power features of the project may be built and operated by a private or non-federal agency. The Pacific Gas and Electric Company has of fered to bulla the power facilities and purchase the falling water from the United States. Congressional authorization of a reservoir on Cow Creek, midway between Trimly and Sacramento rivers, to take care of, upstream development may mean a re-ar-rnngemenl cf tho tunnel system needed to carry the witter beneath the towering Trinity Alps. Original plans called lor a re regulating reservoir at Lewiston to divert the water into the eight milb long lower house tunnel end ing at Clear Creek. Thcnco the water would go into the nine-mile Mntheson tunne!. But now with the aulhorization of a Clear Creek reservoir, the bureau Is studying the possibility vi a uiveci diversion irom me main dam to the Clear Creek re servoir. From the Clear Creek res ervoir water could be carried to the Sacramento in a tunnel only three miles long. The bureau said four dilferent areas of work were underway from the one million dollar appropriated by Congress to get the protect un- dcrwey; 1. Preconslruction work at the site, sucu as foundation explora tion, aimed at invitine hid nn a short diversion tunnel to un-water ine sue by late April or early May. 2. Preliminary work on the sep arate Cow Creek development authorized as part of the Trinity to serve a 25,000 acre area east of Redding. 3. Planning the diversion with re gard to the Clear Creek reservoir. 4. Negotiations with non-federal agencies to produce the power from the project. 97 SUPPER CLUB r i FEATURING VERA MASON Just toured with Bob Hope and Arthur Lee Simpkins. Now Appearinq THIS WEEK ONLY!
