cotton might suffer damage but

Already the present water level of

63 feet higher than it has ever been
at the site OF the ds,m, according to
Acting State WPA Administrator Carl
w. Smith. During the flood period of
1893 the water reached the 1000 foot
level.
The waters of the reservoir lake
have now reached point opposite the
mouth of the Spokane river, Smith
said, and WPA crews are working un-
der an increased schedule in antici-
patton of the 1a4D peak water level
June I, at the 1890 contour line,
l190 feet above sea level. The water
is expected then TO recede to the
115O contour line and reach its nlti-
mate height III the summer of 1J41,
which will be the 210 line. Clearing
operations for the lake bed will be
carried up to the 1910 line, the bor-
der of government property.

ent of streets, to the site of the pro-
posed sidewalk and went over the
ground with him.
