Stamm. "Without the irrigation water supplied from storage reservoirs, crop losses resulting from the extremely dry summer would have been widespread," Stamm said.

The action enables the Company to implement a split of common shares, according to B. Z. Kastler, president. The split will become effective as of the close of business on Monday, November 18, 1974, and shareholders as of that time will receive stickers to affix to existing certificates evidencing the reduced par value of the stock together with new certificates for the additional shares to which they are entitled as a result of the split. The stickers and new certificates will be mailed about Friday, December 6, 1974, and the split shares will begin trading on the New York Stork Exchange as of the opening of trading on Monday, December 9, 1974. also approved Shareholders an amendment to the articles increasing the number of directors from 11 to 13 persons.

Precipation over the Upper Colorado River Basin was scattered and varied, ranging from 52 percent to 85 percent, with the lowest readings at the most southerly areas. Winter carryover storage of water in Bureau of Reclamation reservoirs in the Intermountain area is generally below average. Thus if the region receives below average snowfall during the coming winter and spring, some reservoirs could run short of irrigation water during 1975. If average or above average amounts of snow are received, irrigation prospects should be normal In the northern part of the Colorado River Basin, Fontenelle Reservoir and Flaming Gorge Lake both filled to capacity during 1974.

Utah OAlOOTfS Phone- 4SS-S3- a Comments sought on traction ALTAMONT November 21 , 22, 23 rule changes THEATRE The Utah State Road Commission is inviting public comment on a proposed rule change that will significantly broaden the special traction requirments for vehicles allowed to use certain canyon roads when they have been closed to vehicles with conventional tires. Since 1968, Highway Department regulations have allowed the State Highway Director to designate certain canyon highways to be restricted during the winter to use only by vehicles equipped with snow tires or chains. The "snow tires or chain" restrictions have largely been applied to ski resort canyons, such as Utile and Big Cottonwood Canyons, Logan Canyon, and Parowan Canyon. The restriction periods were relatively short, lasting only until highway maintenance crews cleared the snow from the roads. Signs are posted notifying motorists when the restrictions are in effect, and motorists who violate them are given citations by the Utah Highway Patrol punishable by fines ranging from $5.00 to Thursday, Friday, Saturday HERBIE RIDES snow-restric- AGAIN RatadG Regular prica ,r ted $299. The proposed amendment to the regulations would expand the list of vehicles allowed to use highways to include not only vehicles equipped with snow tires or chains, but also drive vehicles, and vehicles equipped with traction aids. Since the adoption of the "snow tires or chains" winter travel restrictions on canyon roads, radial tires have gained popularity to the point where they are now offered as standard equipment on many new cars. However, radial tires offer a problem to owners. Conventional steel-linchains cannot be used with them because they damage the tire sidewalls. New traction attachments have been developed to replace the conventional chains. Two such traction aids current ly being sold in Utah include cable chains" and snow treads." The "cable chains" consist of steel cables laced together and fastened to the tire in somewhat the same manner as steel-linchains. The "snow treads" consist of plastic traction wedges strapped to the tread of the tire with a network of nylon belts. The manufacturers of both types claim they offer the flexibility that radial tires require, and are effective in deep snow. Utahns will have until December 23rd to submit written comments or requests for a hearing concerning the proposed rule change before it comes up for final consideration the Commission. by Statements may he addressed to the Utah State Road Commission, Room 612 I). State Office Building, Salt City, Utah 84114.
