T. Frost, snow survey super visor for Department of Agricul lure, Soil Conservation Service, Oregon Agncultuial Experiment Station and state engineer, slate of Oregon. The mountain snowpack and reservoired water supplies arc much below normal and watershed soils are unusually dry. Water content of the present mountain snowpack is only 29 per cent normal. Many unusually heavy winter storms will be needed if the present snow "shortage" is to be overcome. Normally, about four-tenths of the total winter "snow crop' should be on the watersheds by January 1. This year there is less than two-tenths of a normal "snow crop at this dale. Mountain watershed soils are unusually dry for this time of year. Water stored in the three major eservous is 74 per cent of the usual amount but only 55 per cent of that available at this date last year. Storage in Gerber Reservoir is the lowest in many years. Inflow into Upper Klamath Lake has been 84 per cent normal dur ing the October through Decem ber period. Spring and summer flow of all streams in the Klarri' ath Basin is expected to be be low normal with strikingly low flows to occur into both Gerber and Clear Lake reservoirs un less unusually heavy winter storms are experienced. Statewide, the outlook for Ore gon's I960 water supplies, as of this early winter date, ranges from only fair to "very poor." Reser voired water supplies are mostly far below normal, watershed soils are dryer than normal and the mountain snowpack is near record low in many portions of the state. In this area the following or ganizations cooperate with the Soil Conservation Service in the snow survey activity: California Oregon Power Company; Langoll Valley, Klamath, Poe Valley and; Lakeview Soil Conservation dis tricts; Oregon Agricultural Exper iment Station; Oregon State Engi neer and State Watermaster; U.S. Indian Service; U.S. Bureau of Reclamation; National Park Serv ice; Talent Irrigation District; Med ford Irrigation District and U.S. Corps of Engineers. The next report on snow surveys and water supply conditions will be issued on February 8. ; f Mi C. E. ALWARD Trainmaster Gets New Job E. A. Votaw has replaced C. E, Alward as trainmaster of the Klam ath Falls Southern Pacific railroad terminal. Alward was transferred January 1 to Sparks, Nevada, after spend ing four and one half years in Klamath Falls as trainmaster. He will serve as trainmaster there. Votaw comes to Klamath Falls from San Francisco where he was assistant terminal superintendent. He first worked for Southern Pa cific as a brakeman in 1941 near Tracy, California, and subsequent ly became conductor in that area and trainmaster in the vicinity of 1' resno and Lodi and later at Niles. From Niles he became assistant trainmaster at West Oakland term inal and moved from there to the San Francisco terminal. His wife, Viola, and son, Robert, will arrive trom San Francisco in about a week, Votaw said.

City Council Raps Proposal DORRIS At its regular monthly meeting Monday night, the Dorris City Council approved a resolution protesting the federal government's proposed taxation of interest paid on municipal bonds and on mu nicipal income. Members felt that both proposed taxes are of ques tionable constitutionality and be lieve opposition to such a federal tax measure to be in the public interest. Mayor Bob Edgar authorized Vir ginia Hamilton, city clerk, to send copies of the resolution as drawn up by the council to Senators t nomas Kuchel and Clair Engle ana 10 congressman Harold T. (Bizz) Johnson. The council discussed the dos. sibility that Police Chief Bvard Kelly may be permitted to attend future peace officers' zone meet ings when called by the attornev general. A letter from the office of Attorney General Stanley Mosk explained the zone meetings are held to forward more efficient and professional police work. The coun cil decided, since' there would be quite an expense to the city en tailed in the attendance of chief Welly at the meetings, it would be best to think it over." The council' discussed having a new refinish coat put on the hard wood floors of the city hall audi torium; having more water cutoffs installed to prevent loss of water revenue and instructed Kelly to check prices toward the purchase of new chairs for the city hall. Mrs. Hamilton reported the first date for filing for city offices to be January 28, and the last date, February 18. Election date will be April 12. The council seats of May or Bob Edgar; Arnold Skoog and Richard renwick will be vacated. The offices of city clerk and city treasurer will also be open for election. Witness Tells Of Killing In Klamath Slay Trial A witness to the killing of Joseph Owen Martinez II described the slaying and events leading to It yesterday afternoon in the first de gree murder trial of 21-year-old Leonard Marvin Lugo. The witness, George Hill Jr., 27, 3304 Delaware Street, described himself as a friend of both the victim and the accused murderer. Hill said he heard Martinez threaten to cut Lugo's throat if Lugo did not stay away from Mar tinez' estranged wife, Patty Gib bans Martinez. The threat, Hill said, was three weeks before the killing early August 31. Hill testified Lugo and Martinez met again in a Seventh Street tav ern the afternoon before Martinez was killed. He said at that time Martinez challenged Lugo to go out in the alley with him. Lug, said it was not dark enough. The young men met later that ght, actually August 31, and Mar tinez renewed his challenge, Hill testified. This time Martinez and Lugo, with Hill and Lugo's broth er Alfred went into the alley. They passed a city police officer, and walked on. Behind the Broiler, Hill sa Martinez stopped and shouted at Lugo, "You smarted off, didn yoi'?" Within seconds, Hill testified, Lugo pulled a .22 caliber revolver and fired at Martinez. Martinez twisted his back toward Lugo, Hill said. What did the defendant do then?" asked District Attorney Ar thur Beddoe. 'He kept on shooting at him He shot five or six times. Then the cops came running up the al ley. fonce saia Martinez, 26, was shot six times in the heart, abdo men and back. His body lay at the foot of the restaurant's back steps when officers arrived. Hill, a sparse-haired young man has been held in the county jail as a material witness since Sep tember 11. His testimony was com pleted yesterday, but he was re tained in jail pending another pos sible appearance in the trial. Testimony did not begin until after noon yesterday because two' and-one-half trial days were re quired to obtain a jury from 90 veniremen called. Three special venires were called before the jury was approved by both sides. Defense attorneys Joseph O Stearns of Portland and Glenn D Ramirez of Klamath Falls used 10 of 12 permissible preemptory challenges authorized the defense in a murder trial. Beddoe used one of six possible challenges. First witnesses called were Dr George Nicholson, deputy county coroner who conducted an autopsy 01 Martinez' body, and William P Kendall, a mortician. Witnesses following Hill included city police officers Russell Matt miller, Archie Huff and Dennis Lilly. Their testimony, continuing into today s session, was principal ly offered by the state to estab- Area Reports First Baby LAKEVIEW Lake County's first 1960 baby waited until the morn ing of January 6 to make her ap pearance.

Alluding to the threat of the free world from communism, Eisen hower said: "With both sides of this divided world in possession of unbelievably destructive weap ons, mankind approaches a state where mutual annihilation be comes a possibility." He said recent Soviet deport. ment and pronouncements "sue- gest the possible opening of a somewhat less-strained period in the relationships between the So viet Union and the free world." Eisenhower cautioned free na tions against being "misled by pleasant promises," but he said the United Slates intends to deal with the Soviet Union with the ut most seriousness. Eisenhower made It plain he does not expect the Soviet Union to touch off an all-out war. It is my studied conviction. that no nation will pvpi- riclr ,9V against us unless we should be so foolish as to neglect the defense forces we now so powerfully sup port," he said. IT IS WORLDWIDE knowledge that any nation which might be tempted to attack the United States, even though our country might sustain great losses, would tself promptly suffer a terrible destruction." In sounding this warning, Eisen hower disclosed this about Atlas intercontinental missiles now be coming operational: "In 14 recent test launchings, ai ranges ot over 5,000 miles, At-t las has been striking on an aver- arto within lun ntilnc nf nM V O - .....t... b.,w 11IWW Ul LUC u' et. This is less than tho lenrtH of a jet runway well within th circle of total destruction," h' said of the Atlas missile. The President said the nation's ilriking power in manned bomb ers is unmatched. He added that i increasing numbers of nuclear Jj Miuinai iiics, some armed witn deadly Polaris missiles, will be en tering service. In this presidential and con gressional election year, with Re publicans sure to hammer at peace and prosperity campaign hemes, Eisenhower said: "Today our surging strength is apparent to everyone; 1960 prom ises to be the most prosperous year of our history." The President listed some "nag ging disorders" which he said ague the country despite the outlook for record prosperity. Among these was the need to prevent future labor-management' stalemates. OTHER DISORDERS he men tioned included the continuing threat of inflation. We must fight inflation," he said, "as we would a fire that imperils our homes.
