Three Boxcars Leave Track Near Dunsmuir DUNSMUIR Three boxcars on a southbound freight train left the tracks about one mile north of Dunsmuir recently, and careened into the Sacramento River near Mossbrae Falls. The derailment did not tear up the Southern Pacific Company main line and trains were de layed less than an hour. The wreckage, as it did not impair the tracks, was not removed im mediately. Shasta Division officials could not determine cause of the acci dent when they gathered at the scene shortly after it happened. Investigation is continuing. No one was hurt. tched up quickly after three lously left the Southern Pacific Company tracks at Dunsmuir recently. Traffic was held up only briefly. No injuries resulted. Here a handy rolling crane prepares to remove the wreckage. Photo by Peggy Walsh.

TU 4-6955 Supervisors Approve Proposal YREKA Siskiyou County u pervisors approved a proposal last week by County Road Com-! missioner A. A. Powers to set up a "kitty" containing $205,000 as a result of larger than antici pated revenues from forest serv ice timber sales this year. The County Road Department has been notified it will receive about $500,000 in December as its share of timber sale receipts. Road department personnel had budgeted for an anticipated $205, 000 timber sale receipts. Thus, tne department will be left, hap pily, with a tidy surplus. Powers proposed the money pool or "kitty" to be used for cash- oasis operation next tiscal year. The department will be able to pay its road building and main tenance bills readily, rather than having to wait for timber sales revenues to arrive, Powers said. Each year, a quarter of forest service timber sales receipts goes to the county where the timber grew. Half of the county's share goes to the school system and the other half to the road depart ment. Powers also proposed that about $150,000 be used for build ing and developing county shops. He said about $45,000 will be needed to build a carpentry shop ai me present equipment maint enance and radio' reoalr shorn located south of Yreka city Mm, its, and for construction of shops in E,ma and Dorris. Supervisor Earl Ager of Tuie- lake said Dorris needs a shop badly. None exists there. Super visor Don Avery, Etna, said the shop there is located loo close to a church and Etna Elementary bcnool.' He said he has received com plaints that noise of machinery Is disturbing to the school and church. The board authorized Averv to look for a prospective new site in the area.

Lumber Study Being Made McCLOUD - Shasta-Trinity Na tional Forest officials are cooper ating witn tne torest service for est products laboratory at Madi son, Wisconsin, on fir lumber study. Tests for density, structur-1 at strength and possibility of us. ing the timber for plywood are being made. Frank Fry, McCloud District as sistant ranger, said "a concen trated study is being carried on to increase markets for presently less desirable species. Samples of timber from McCloud and Hay fork districts of Shasta - Trinity National' Forest are presently be ing tested." Dam Work Must Progress, Says Par SACRAMENTO (UPI) -Gov. the 1S55 Yuba City floods, that Edmund G. Brown said Friday that simultaneous construction of Oroville Dam with the Feather River aqueducts "cannot be gain saidit must move ahead." And Harvey O. Banks, slate di rector of water resources, said "the problem is one of funding. I'm confident that the Legislature will take whatever steps neces sary and the department will take the necessary steps as a high priority item." Both indicated at Brown's news conference that more money be sides the $1.75 billion bond issue on the November ballot probably will be needed to build Oroville Dam. Asked If he would ask the Leg islature for it, Brown said "I don't know, I would favor not moving ahead on the authoriza tion from the Central Valley project," The Department of Water Re sources now has authority to sell unlimited amounts of revenue bonds for the water project. Stresses Flood Control Brown said two consulting firms recommended two ways extra money could be gained from rev enue bonds and by direct appro priates of the Legislature. Banks said "I think we can raise the money to build the full dam initially." Brown spelled out his water plan priority again "getting wa ter over t h e Tehachapi" into Southern California and "right alongside of it is flood control on Oroville Dam." "When we lose 39 lives and mil lions in properly damage as in cannot be ignored," he said Brown also said that his pro posed surcharge on agricultural water for landholdings over 160 acres is valid. The consultants recommended against such a sur charge because it would run into legal difficulties. Hired experts told a news con ference Thursday that it would be financially "unsound" to attempt to build the Southern uainornia aqueducts and Oroville Dam si multaneously with the bond money. But Harvey O. Banks, state di rector of water resources, sain "my assumption is that the Legis lature will provide additional funds from some source or other to construct Oroville Dam simul taneously with the aqueducts. ' Wants To Delay Dam The news conference was called so reporters could question state experts and two consulting firms on inch-thick reports issued Thurs day on the California water plan. The reports were tiled by Charles T. Main Inc., engineering consultants of Boston, and Dillon, Read and Co. Inc., financial con sultants of New York. They were hired for $555,000 by the depart ment of water resources to study all aspects of the water plan. They said that the $1.75 billion bond issue would pay for all but $57 million of the Feather River Project and the huge plan would pay for itself under these condi tions: If the start of Oroville Dam were delayed until 1973. If construction costs do not increase in the next 30 years And it master water districts U!',.V, 1 J. S.

Costs May Rise Since the consulting firms were hired to study the project "as set forth by the state," including si multaneous construction of Oro ville Dam, they were asked why they did not dp this. R.T. Colburn, vice president of Main Inc., replied that simultan eous construction of the two from the bonj issue made the project unsound. Banks said later that the firms knew the state was assuming it could separate Oroville Dam from the rest of the water plan and fi nance it with money from other sources. The consulting firms made their finding of financial feasibility on the basis that construction costs would not increase because, they said, no accurate estimate of con s t r u c 1 1 o n increases could be made.
