Clyde, irrigation engineer for the Utah Agricultural Experiment station, reported Monday. While the January 1 snow cover is not a good index of the seasons runoff, he reported the water situation could be af-fected seriously if the present moisture deficiency on the watersheds were not made up during the January-Marc- h period. The water content of the snow cover on Mt. Logan was 2.6, 4.9 and at eleva5.5 inches respectively tions of 7000, 8000 and 9000 feet on January 1, he announced. Heav. ier water contents have been recorded on January 1 of every year were since snow measurements made except in 1926, 1930 and g 1 1940. However, in 1934 the year of the worst drought in the states history, there was twice as watershed much snow on the January 1 as there was this yeat In 1940, the January 1 snow cover contained only 1.2, 1.6 and e inches of water at the pective elevations, yet the runoff in 1940 was 50 Per cent greater res-hav- than in 1934, illustrating the in- of the January 1 meas- urements alone as an index of seasonal runoffs, The runoff during the summer of 1943 in the area was consid-194erably above normal, Dean Clyde said and was adequate to meet all water requirements of irrigators. It was the first irrigation season irf 20 years that a water commissioner was found necessary to distribute the runoff among users.

Frederick P. Champ, retiring county chairman and area coordinator for the Utah war finance organization, discussed objective! of the campaign and declared that the primary purpose of war bond sales Is to curb inflation, as the war effort could be financed, If necessary, by other means." He spoke enthusiastically of the good fortune which had come to the county organization ln Director Peterson's willingness to accept this heavy responsibility and carry on with the united support of the workers in the county organization and the full approval and cooperation of the state organization.

He declared, the necessity for placing responsibility on addition- al workers, subdividing the divi- sional assignments as far as sible Is imperative if the drive is to .be succesful. We mut be frank and realistic in our approach to the task of selling bonds in our efforts to reach excess income and control he continued. Every inflation, individual must be asked to buy and the responsibility for purchase must be subdivided down to the family unit if we are to succeed and maintain the fine record which the county already has es- tablished. 1q order to facilitate the ail important task of increasing and emphasizing sales of E, F, and to Individuals, the G" bonds campaign has been divided into two periods, he announced. The 13 first, comprising days from January 18 to January 31, will be devoted only to $ales to lndivid- uabi and final period, Febru ary 1 to 15, will be given to corporations, taxing units end other larger purchasers. If we are to fulfill the primary task of war financing and preserve the dollar against disastrous inflation, it must be our dedicated task to accomplish the maximum number of bond sales to individuals who have excess income, earning or savings in this war period, and to avoid the easy task of financing the war by the sale of bonds to banks with the result that we may find, after winning the war, a dollar so heavily depreciated by the inflationary effect of such deficit financing that it will jeapardize the existence of our free enterprise economy. The people of Cache County and the workers who have so conscientiously participated in the previous .drive should be proud of the outstanding results achieved here, including the fact that we were among the few counties of the state and nation which nearly doubled our quota in E series bond sales to individuals in the last drive and obtained 86 per cent of our subscriptions from local sources.
