The south lanes will have recesses for right and left turns. The old buttresses or pylons, still standing, and built of stone and granite will be eliminated in favor of what Mr. Young describes as "three point arches. The weight of the arches will be "borne at the base, the elbow and the top or apex.

' The lack of January moisture resulted in a 30 per cent decreaseln the forecasts for the water supply and stream flow outlook. Stream flow for streams in northern Utah .is forecast, to range from near half to 60 per cent of average. . Most of the possible advantage of the early fall rains has been dissipated, This Is especially true for streams with low level watersheds and Is reflected fn the lower forecasts for these streams. Slim Chances If the maximum precipitation of record should occur during the period February-June- , near normal stream flow would be possible for some of the higher streams, but the chances of this are about 40 to 1. However, should predpita-- ' tion be as low as It Is one time in four for the rest of the season, the expected stream flows would be from 7 per cent to 12 per cent lower than present forecasts. Should the present drought conditions continue the forecast stream flow during the year would be as low or lower than was observed during 1934, a record drought year. Outlook Critical The much below average stream flow forecasts, plus very little carryover In reservoirs makes the over all water supply outlook for this season very critical Worst outlook for northern Utah Is for the Inflow to Utah Lake and Strawberry Reservoir. The Inflow .to Strawberry Reservoir for the rest of the water year is forecast to be only 38 per cent of average, while inflow to Utah Lake will be 48 per cent of average, or only 210,000 acre-fee- t ROTARY Continued from Page B-- l If we are part of the problem or part of the answer.

This appraisal of the present and future of the Middle East was made Wednesday by Ardeshir Zahedi, ambassador to the U.S. from Iran who spoke at the University of Utah to open a "Spotlight on the Middle East being presented by the school A former student at Utah State University, the ambassador sketched the greatness and then the fall of the Middle East nations, and finally their changing face of the present, as mirrored in his own country. Place of Beginnings "The Middle East and Near East are the cradle of civilization, he said, pointing out that all the sciences and arts had their beginnings there. The advent of printing on a large scale, the spread of learning, and the industrial movement and modern technology shifted the center of gravity to the peoples of the West, he explained. The eastern nations lagged and deteriorated and the West, thirsting for raw materials and wealth, filmed to colonialism, he said. East Sank Deeper "The East, already In dethe cline, had to surrender, ambassador stated. "As the West grew richer and more powerful, the East sank deeper In poverty and weakness. Mr. Zahedi said the global wars and the revolutions that followed ushered In a new era and the growing conflict among the great powers gave the peoples of the East their chance. Describing modern ban, he outlined great strides miide in education, housing and witter supply and pointed out that The highway death toll for Utah stood at 17 as January ended, " This number, one less than last year wasfar above some Januaries In recent years, but was also considerably below the toll In others. A look at records sine 1953, show that the Heath total for January has been as low as eight and as high as 22. Its hard to find any significance in the toll for the month just ended, at least until each individual accident has been studied, according to G. Ernest Bourne, manager, Utah Safety ' Council.
