Canadian-Blaine
Project Outlined
By Federal Agency
WASHINGTON, June 28 —VP)—
Allocation of witter from the Canton
reservoir to Irrigate 18,000 acres of
fertile land of the North Canadian
river valley in Blaine and Canadian
counties, was requested Wednesday
by the bureau of reclamation.
At the same time the bureau, with
the support of army englneeto,
asked amendment of the 1946 flood
control by the senate commerce
committee to make flood control
tlie prime purpose of the Canton
dam, with irrigation secondary.
With slltatlon of the reservoir1 a
major problem, the amendment
would place upon water users and
other beneficiaries of the program
any future cost of maintaining tlie
storage capacity of the reservoir.
Director Makes Reqacst
The requests were made by J. W
Dixon, director of the reclamation
bureau's branch of project planning
as the senate committee conducted
hearings on the flood control bill,
already passed by the house.
The bureau of reclamation spokes-
men. said army engineers have been
cooperating with the bureau In
planning for outlet works at the
Canton dam to provide the neces-
sary flow of water far the irriga-
tion project.
The water for tlie irrigation pro-
ject would be taken from the North

dam at a point about IS miles belOw

14 Candidates
Are Listed On
County Ballots
Several Officials
Are Unopposed
For Re-Election
Names of only 14 candidates will
appear on the Democratic county
ballots which Canadian county vo-
ters will mark in the primary elec-
tion Tuesday, July 2, it was revealed
today by J. L. Patman, secretary
of the county election board.
No more than two candidates
filed for any or the contested of-
fices in the county, while a num-
ber of tlie county officials are en-
tirely unopposed for re-election
which eliminates the necessity of
their names appearing on the pri-
mary ballots. In other instances,
only one Democrat and one Rc
publican filed for specific offices,
which deferred a vote on these
candidates until the general election
In November.
Thus the county ballot, In sllkrp
contrast to the Democratic state
ballot, is one of the shortest ever
prepared for Canadian county voters
In a primary election.
The complete Democratic county
ballot will list offices and candidates
as follows:
For stete senator—Jim A. Rine-
hart. Claude W. Cherry.
For state representative— E. R.
Barnhart, Jean L. Pazoureck.
For sheriff—Lloyd E. Palmer, Art
C. Jahn.
For county surveyor—Bill Alex-
ander, Joe W. Maxey.
For commissioner, second district
—Oeorge E. Hurst, William Dolezal.
For commissioner, third district—
Floyd E. Ellison, R. O. Courtney.
For constable, Yukon district —
8. A. Thompson, W. A. Criswell.
It will be noted that some of
these races are not countywide.
Commissioners are nominated and
elected by specific districts, only
the voters at Yukon will cast bal-
lots In the constable's race there.
The Republican county ballot will
list only two candidates for a single
office. These candidates are Jack
8mith and George E. Young, bidding
for the Republican nomination for
sheriff.
Boss of Robots
Raises Due For
City Employes
Tentative Budget Is
Drawn by Manager
A tentative budget drawn by
City Manager C. A. Bentley, which
will be presented to tlie city council
at a meeting Monday night, will
contain "substantial" Increases for
city employes.
Bentley announced this today,
not specifying tlie exact amount of
the proposed salary Increases and
adding that they are contingent
upon tlie city finding adldtlonal
revenue.
In addition to the salary raises,
Bentley said tlie budget also makes
"allowance" for rising costs of ma-
terials and supplies.
Meanwhile, Bentley stated that at
a recent conference with Earl E.
Nunn, Oeorge E. Young, Hubert
Oray, Dr. W. S. Boyd and Oeorge
Scott, who represent a group of
Interested citizens, "the city's fin-
ancial position was outlined and!
the need for additional revenue was
explained, if substantial increasess
lor city employes are to be allowed
and If funds are to be available to
meet the Increased costs of materials
and supplies.”
"These men agreed," Bentley con-
tinued, "that the situation was one
which demands the interest and at-
tention of every one, and expressed
their willingness to cooperate witii
Die city in finding sources from
which to obtain the additional rev-
enue needed. No specific commit-
ment was made, however, to support
an Increase In city water rates at
this time."

Senator Moore
Talking Against
Price Controls
O’Daniel Is Ready
To Follow Oklahoman
With Filibuster
WASHINGTON, June 27 —VP)—
Senator Ed H. Moore (Republican,
Oklahoma) let file with a 13.000-
Ford speech against price controls
today as senate clocks ticked away
toward the OPA expiration hour of
Sunday midnight.
He gained the senate floor, armed
with a prepared address, at the
opening of the second day’s debate
on a compromise OPA extension
measure.
Moore lashed out at the CTO and
political action committee aa cham-
pioning price control to force eco-
nomic collapse and the "overthrow
of constitutional government."
Nearby in the listless, sparsely
populated senate chamber sat Sen-
ator W. Lee “Pappy” O'Daniel
(Democrat, Texas), ready to take
over in his anonunced plan of talk-
ing OPA to death.
Trtanan Talks with Bowlse
Downtown, President Truman told
a news conference that he Is trying
to persuade Chester Bowles to re-
main at his post of economic sta-
biliser.
Bowles' retirement as a result of
restrictions on OPA powers con-
templated In pending legislation has
long been talked. The president
said Bowles has been trying to quit
ever since he took office and that
he (Mr. Truman) had been suc-
cessful so far In keeping him on the
Job. Bowles conferred with the
president yesterday but refused to
discuss the meeting with reporters.
Mr. Truman declined to discuss
the watered down price extension
bill now before the senate, other
than to say It was unfortunate that
It had been debated so long.
To Reach Dec Won
He said he would decide after tha
measure reaches him whether to
make a radio address outlining his
position on It.
This wss his reply when asked
whether he would speak to the
people in connection with signing or
vetoing of the bill.
On Capitol Hill, Senator O’Daatet
sought to get and hold the senate
floor for a chance to talk OPA to
death.
If he could talk steadily until
Sunday midnight, or call up vocal
relniorcements, he could succeed
In theory at least. The present OPA
law expires June 30.
However, there is no present In-
dication that any colleague will
team up with O’Daniel In his pro-
jected talkathon. And the leader-
ship is determined to keep the sen-
ate in long-hour sessions if neces-
sary to bring the compromise price
control extension bill to a final
vote.
