Bonneville Predicts Drop In Power Sales PORTLAND (AP) - The Bon neville Power Administration to day forecast a drop in power tales this year, but took an op timistic view for the rest of this decade. 4 , The optimism springs from the U.S. -Canadian treaty now being negotiated for upriver storage in the Columbia Basin. "Ratification of the treaty by both countries. . . will set in mo tion a tremendous power develop ment of Canadian storage proj tcts and Libby Dam that could make available to the United Stales 1,686.000 kilowatts of low- Dog Licenses Are Available At Courthouse New dog licenses, due this eek, are available at the Coun ty Clerk's Office in the court house and at the County Dog Pound, 2853 Memorial Drive. Poundmaster Don Libby is lng county dog owners to secure their licenses now as a penalty goes into effect March 1. After that date, Libby said, unlicensed dogs will be picked up and a $1 penalty charge will be as sessed for licenses. County Clerk Charlie DcLap said the dogs must wear both the licenses and the tags that come with them. He said licenses cost $2 for mal dogs and spayed females and $3 for unspayed fe males. Libby and DcLap said licenses and tags are required so that lost or strayed dogs can be re turned to their owners and .also to place responsibility for dam age done by dogs to property and livestock. State Receives Last Word Oil HPritrfll Aid NOr RnnriC Oregon today received word of final release of 1962 federal aid funds for primary and secondary highways. These are not new fed eral funds, but is the final ap portionment of 1062 funds, part of which was made by the U.S. Bu reau of Public Roads last July, W. C. Williams, state highway engineer, pointed out. In making its 1962 apportion ment last July 22, the bureau re leased only three-fourths of each state's allotments until comple tion of the 1960 census. This cen sus is now complete and the bu reau is making its final appor tionment of the 1962 federal aid funds. Under this program Ore gon received notice of federal funds which will be available for Two Killed In Mishaps By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Separate automobile crashes killed two persons in Oregon Thursday.

There has probably never been a time in the history of the Pacific Northwest when we have faced a brighter outlook for the sound and continuing development of all aspects of our regional economy."! ine Bonneville Power Adminis tration markets power from 13 federal dams in the Columbia Basin. Pearl reported those dams pro duced 59.2 per cent of the power sold by major utilities in the re- urg-'gj0n last year Gross revenue was $71,200,563 for 1960, an increase of $2,564,272 over the previous year. Alter op erating expenses were met, $31, 764,840 was left for the interest charged on the government- con struction outlay and another $18, 374,097 for depreciation and am ortization. Pearl said. He said this was not as much as expected to be set aside for depreciation, but that Rood years earlier still leave the agency $84,500,000 ahead of schedule on repayments to the government. Pearl estimated power sales will drop $1,700,000 this year, but other power servicing will offset about $1,000,000 of that. Revenues should turn upward in 1962, the report said. mi,nB K ,h i- ..,U...,B ij omic in con struction or improvement of pri mary and secondary highways and urban extensions of primary or secondary highways, Williams explained.

The federal apportionment for primary lunas is nasea one-mira on the state's population ratio; one-third the state's area ratio. and one-third the state's post road mileage ratio. Secondary funds are based upon one-third the slate s rural population ratio; one- third the state's post road mile age, and one-third the slate's area ratio. The urban extension appor tionment is based upon the ratio that the state's urban population bears to the national urban popu lation.

He said California leases its tidelands for a specific sum, a cash bonus and a sliding royalty based on a production curve that begins at 16 2-3 per cent.
