State Water Division Shows Rainfall Effect By HENRY C. MacARTHUR SACRAMENTO (CNS) — Some idea of the huge amount of water which soaked California in the form of rain and snow last fall and winter can be obtained from figures released by the State Division of Water Resources. Although no one probably ever will know just how much water flowed back to the sea, the division's extensive and complicated system for rain and snow measurements, and calculations of run-offs give some idea of the wasted water, which is greater storage space were available, could be put to beneficial use. The division estimates that from April 1 to July 31, the runoff season, the rivers heading in the Sierra Nevada, which find their way into the Sacramento and San Joaquin, will have a total run-off of 26,450,000 acre feet. This is from the 12 major streams. There are 27 major reservoirs in the Sierra, according to the division, which have a total capacity of 7,891,700 acre feet of water. These reservoirs on April 1 held 5,627,110 acre feet of water, and releases were virtually at maximum to allow for flood control, and later storage when the snow runoff starts in earnest. EVERY RESERVOIR, the division predicts, will be spilling by the time the snow is gone this summer, and a good wet storm at NEW MARKET TEAM—"Right about there is where the meat packaging room will be," Ray Allen, proprietor of Ray's Market, 721 S. Los Angeles st., tells his co-workers, Bill Adkins, Ray Allen Resumes Operation of S. Los Angeles St. Food Market A well-known figure in local food merchandising circles, Ray Allen, has resumed operation of Ray's Food Market at 721 S. Los Angeles st. Allen originally purchased and opened the market in 1945 and operated it until 1950 when he opened a new market and leased the store. Sometimes this month he said, he will convert the market to a self-service, packaged type of service. Packaging will be done in a rear room which is to be refrigerated and especially-equipped for the operation. The store will remain open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., seven days per EVERY RESERVOIR, the division predicts, will be spilling by the time the snow is gone this summer, and a good wet storm at the present time, would result in filling even faster. Largest reservoir is Shasta dam, on the Sacramento river, which has a maximum capacity of 4,500,000 acre feet. This week, the lake had filled to a total of 4,426,000 acre feet, which officials said, means but little space is left for the heavy runoff expected from the Sacramento of 2,800,000 acre feet of water which the dam can't hold. The runoff is computed in addition to the storage capacity of the major reservoirs, which means that as nearly as can be computed during the four month period, there will come from the mountains a total of 34,441,700 acre feet of water. And out of this total a little better than a fifth will be stored for irrigation, power and municipal and industrial usage. An additional 300,000 acre feet may be stored if the Pine Plat reservoir, partially completed, is used for storage purposes this year. SOME STORAGE, of course, will be effected through natural underground reservoirs and increasing heights of the water table in the underground basin. How much is a matter of speculation, and no survey on a state-wide basis has been completed as yet to determine the increase. Water officials pointed out that more reservoirs providing huge storage capacities will materially assist in the water conservation program. But they were skeptical as to when there would be another wet year similar to 1951-52. The last comparable season was in 1938, but the anticipated April-July runoff for 1952 averages somewhat more than in 1938. The division and other water resources on April 1 held 5,627,110 acre feet of water, and releases were virtually at maximum to allow for flood control, and later storage when the snow runoff starts in earnest. S. Los Angeles St. Food Market A well-known figure in local food merchandising circles, Ray Allen, has resumed operation of Ray's Food Market at 721 S. Los Angeles st. Allen originally purchased and opened the market in 1945 and operated it until 1950 when he opened a new market and leased the store at 721 S. Los Angeles to another operator. This year Allen sold out his interest in the new store and concentrated on a grocery in La Habra. Recently he resumed operation of the Anaheim market. His plans include a complete rearrangement and redecoration of MORE ABOUT... Steel Strike Continued from Page 1 between giant industry and giant labor results in a paralysis in which our whole economic and social life may be at stake. "It is time for the Congress to meet that situation calmly, wisely and promptly." In the steel towns, the mills were closed up tight and union pickets were stationed about them. However, Sawyer said he did not feel the men were now on strike against the government since their walkout came when U.S. District Judge David A. Pine ruled on Tuesday that the government seizure was illegal and the mills must be returned to their owners. Yesterday, the government got an order from the court of appeals which has the effect of holding up Pine's order pending an appeal to the Supreme Court. NAVY RECRUIT Undergoing recruit training at the U.S. Naval Training Center, San Diego, Calif., is Pascle G. Pope, seaman recruit, USN, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Cook of 7121 Thornton, Anaheim. Pope, who entered Naval service on March 24, 1952, worked as the store. Sometimes this month he said, he will convert the meat market to a self-service, packaged type of service. Packaging will be done in a rear room which is to be refrigerated and especially-equipped for the operation. The store will remain open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., seven days per week. Allen's merchandising experience began in 1933 when he arrived in Santa Ana from Texas and began working for the Smail and Final wholesale grocery concern. He was with them for 1 years. He is affiliated with Certified Grocers, the largest food cooperative in the United States which, Allen says, permits him to merchandise his products at favorable prices. Bill Adkins is working with Allen in the grocery and Rusky Rippy handles the meat market. Allen and his family, including his wife, Ruth, and children, Mark 9, Linda, 8, and Robert, 6, live at 326 S. East st. He is a member of Anaheim Elks club. County Hospital Sets Open House Orange County General hospital will observe National Hospital day Saturday by having open house from 1 to 4 p.m., it was announced today by R. D. Powell hospital director. Visitors will register in the lobby of the new administration building, where student nurses will conduct them on a tour of the hospital premises. Light refreshments will be served at the end of the tour. Powell requested that visitors drive to the front of Administration Building 49, where car attendants will assist them in parking. Paul J. Tighe Gets Marine S/Sgt. Rank WITH THE FIRST MARINE Water officials pointed out that more reservoirs providing huge storage capacities will materially assist in the water conservation program. But they were skeptical as to when there would be another wet year similar to 1951-52. The last comparable season was in 1938, but the anticipated April-July runoff for 1952 averages somewhat more than in 1938. The division and other water experts have concluded that with normal temperatures, the state faces no such flood conditions as were experienced in 1938, and the exceptional snowpack of the current year, it was stated in a special report of the division, although it has evoked wide comment on imminence of floods during the runoff periods, presents no danger of disasterous floods "if normal temperatures prevail." The Philippine Republic won its independence from the United States in 1946. CONQUER YOUR CONSTIPATION A remarkable medical discovery is offered in McCoy's Norm Tabs.

Fifty minutes after the blast only two long streaks were visible in the blue desert sky between Las Vegas and the test site, 75 miles away. The fire ball burst at 9:30 a.m. (11:30 a.m. EST) and hung luminously over the low mountains for at least 10 seconds. It narrowed gradually but flames were perceptible for probably another five seconds as the cloud began forming. Spanish conquistadors of the New World trained dogs to fight the Indians.

Governor Earl Warren declared on a radio program which discussed the issues in front of the people. “Frankly,” he said, “I don’t see how they can go much higher and leave any incentive for risk capital to expand present enterprises and continue to create needed payrolls. Any material increase in taxes would substantially injure our economy.” The governor, who is a candidate for the Republican nomination for president, said he does not believe that a Republican can promise honestly any reduction in taxes, “because no man knows what our needs will be in the troubled world in which we are living.” He declared against any constitutional amendment prohibiting the extent to which any given tax can be used. “To thus seek to limit the use of one type of tax may actually become a means of increasing the burdens imposed by other types of taxes, or necessitate deficit spending which means increasing the national debt for our children to pay, as well as encouraging inflation.” He said he has struggled with some difficult tax problems in California during the past ten years, and knows something of the difficulty of keeping taxes within reason. He suggested three steps as remedy: 1. Determine not to indulge in deficit spending; (2) improve budget making practices and (3) reorganize government to eliminate costly duplication, overlapping and obsolescence.

Responses are being tabulated and will be used to modify the instructional program in light of reaction of recent graduates to it. Most helpful are the suggestions for areas of work in which greater emphasis should be given or new subjects added, all made necessary by changing practices in business and industry. Comments from the students have been most encouraging to the school staff, according to Superintendent Stanley Warburton, who sites one typical reaction: "All in all, Fullerton Union High school rates tops with me.
