Quite an impressive list of re quests was included in the letter. Harmony prevailed in that they each asked for the same type of doll, bassinet, doll bath, stroller and luggage. Apparently the older sister un dertook the task of addressing the envelope, because the return address was in her name!

Guth rie, Herbert D. Jackson, Andrew N. Johnson, Harold L. Kniskern Luther McAnulty, James A. Mul lins, Ernest F. Novotny, Clarence n. Schroeder and Grady A. Spen cer ot the Tule Lake Unit. The manner in which these em ployes responded to the emergen cy is described in the text of the citation as follows: "Beginning on December 15th and reaching its peak December 23 and 24, a rain storm of unprecedented intensity enveloped Southern Oregon and the entire Central Valley Project of California. The widespread and in tense flood-producing precipitation resulted in record shattering run off, followed by the most disastrous floods in the area s history of re corded streamflow. The employes of reclamation met the threat to reclamation works and danger to bordering communities with com plete selflessness. They voluntarily returned from leave to report for emergency duty at threatened points, working day and night patroling and clearing canals, re pairing breaks, and using their special skills and knowledge in the interest of saving government and private property. They earned the credit, and commendation of the people of California and Oregon, for preventing -additional millions of dollars damage.
