San Luis Bill
Still In Doubt
WASHINGTON (UPD-The fate
of the San Luis bill srj if don"
today - as Senate debate on the
measure bogged down in a dis
cussion of water law.
Sen. Clair Engle (D-Calif.), a
co-sponsor of the legislation, said
that if there is "much more tool
ing around" the proposal could
be defeated. " '
Engle and Sen. Thomas H.
Kuchel (R-Calif.) co - sponsored
the bill. "which would authorize
joint state-federal construction of
the San Luis Reclamation Project.
Although a similar bill passed
the Senate last year, the meas
ure now has run into trouble be
cause of objections raised by
Sens. Paul Douglas (D-UI.) and
Wayne Morse and Richard L.
Neuberger, Oregon Democrats.
The three senators have com
plained that the bill contains pro
visions which "violate" federal
water statutes. They also have
charged that it would give land
owners who got water from the
state features of the project "pre
ferential treatment" over those
who took water from the federal
part of the unit.
Lngleand Kuchel. who at first
were confident the Senate again
would approve the bill, said after
a stormy debate Thursday that
there is "real concern" over the
chances now.
Engle said the issues raised by
Douglas and Morse "might stir
up a lot of unwarranted opposi
tion that, never existed before."
However, the two Californians
said they hoped that a "cooling
off" process over the weekend
might help erase some of the ob
jections to the project. .
Although the San Luis proposal
passed the Senate last session,, a
similar bill was never acted on
by the House. '

Thoroughly Modern
By ORA DEM1CK
ALTURAS Walter Lowell of
Fort Bidwell gave an illustrated
lecture to the extension class in
Northern California history when
the class made a field trip to the
historic military post of that place
Saturday.
Ernest R. Neasham, instructor
of the class for Chico State Col
lege, is a descendant of pioneers
of Fort Bidwell. He is also a ne
phew of Dr. -Aubrey Neasham of
the California Beaches and Parks
Commission which has been asked
to consider the development of
the old military post into a state
parks monument.
Lowell, who was raised near the
edge of the old fort and is also
a descendant of Fort Bidwell pio
neers, now teaches a elass of avia
tors to fly over the ground once
traveled only by foot, horseback,
wagon "and stagecoach. Lowell is
an aviation veteran of World War
II, during which he flew a recon
naissance plane over Germany. He
and his mother operate a general
merchandise store.
After Lowell addressed the class
in the civic club, he conducted
them on a tour of the first mili
tary post and the later one,- which
alter its abandonment by the Unit
ed States 'Army, became a board
ing school for Indian children. The
federal government, maintained
the school and used the fort's hos
pital for clinical purposes in treat
ing the Indians living in the area.
The military post was established
on the eastern slope of the War
ner Mountains in Surprise Valley
just aorth of the Lassen Trail
which is now known as Fandango
Pass. Its original purpose was to
provide protection to the early set
tlers, from the hostile Indians.
Ranches were developed from the
Oregon line to the Lassen Coun
ty line on the south and from
the Nevada line to the Warner
Mountains on the west, with Up
per, Middle and Lower lakes
within the valley itself. - ,
Some of the original buildings
of the military fort which still
stand were formerly used as offi
cers quarters, its very first school
and a portion of a cavalry barn.
Square nails were used in their
construction.
The hospital is located higher
upon the side of the mountains,
commanding a splendid view of the
valley.
The cemetery, north of the site
of the fort, contains the graves
of soldiers, Indians and pioneers
and their descendants. The whole
is maintained in respectable con
dition. The class heard reports on forts
and mining as they pertained to
Modoc, Lassen. Siskiyou and Shas
ta counties. They also heard about
the Indian Commissioner Meach
am whose life was saved during
the Modoc Indian War by Wine
ma, an Indian princess and wife
of a white settler of Yreka.
After a potluck luncheon served
by the Civic Club members and
the Modoc County Historical So
ciety, the class was led to the
last remaining pioneer log cabin

mission from the television sta
tions and the FCC for the con
struction of the installation of the

They also appointed a road
committee, headed by Roy Ben

It was reported to the group
that there is $25,700 in pledges
and paid-up memberships in the
Yreka-Weed areas.
The campaign will be extended
until June 1 because the service
clubs in Yreka. under the lead
ership of Lynn Cecil, are making
a concentrated drive in that area.
in the upper part of the valley.
The cabin is believed to be more
than 100 years old, according to
Mrs. Leo Sagehorn, hostess on
this part of the trip and mother of
the present landowner where it
stands.
Henry Kober. aged storekeeper
who maintains a rare collection of
museum items including Indian
artiiacts, was also host to the
class. . .
As the class entered the quaint
little white and steepled church
strains were heard from a mod
ern electric organ which was re
cently given the congregation. Mrs
B. N. Bock was the organist.
About 11 miles south of Fort
Bidwell, Mrs. Edna Harris, one
of the students, pointed out the
original "49" schoolhouse which
stands at the Forty-Nine Corners
She said that this is the only
