Word on Marias, Libby Dams

There is special interest in the
Flathead in other dams that are
starting now that Hungry Horse is
in the 80 per cent completed stage
The following articles are from
the Liberty County Times at Ches-
ter and The Western News, Libby
Here are stories from the July
10 and II issues of Chester paper.
July 9 the Reclamation Bureau
advertised for bids for the con-
struction of the Tiber dam and dixie
on the Marias river, 13 miles
south and miles west of Chester.
Bids will be opened in Great Falls
on Tuesday, August IL.
According to present plans, the
dam will be 1876 feet high and 4,410
feet long. 1t will back up a reser-
voir 25 miles long and more than
a mile wide. 1t will have storage
capacity of 100000 acre feet.
A diversion canal from the res
ervoir will serve land on the bench
nOI Ill dllC CdoI VI IllC 1SSSIVOlI, 6x-
tending almost to Havre. It will
carry water for $4,000 acres of
land in Liberty, Hill and Choteau
counties.
This action on the part of the
Congress reverses an administra-
ton policy that has been in effect
for the past few years. Money for
the project was not included in
the presidents budget request, but
was written in the bill by the SEN
ate appropriations committee, ap-
proved by the senate, approved
by the senate-house conference
committee, approved by the house
and finally signed by the President
July 9. The Bureau called for bids
the same day.
Two years ago, Bureau engin-
eers estimated that the total cost
of Tiber dam project would be
$65, 100000. Estimates of July l,
1852 are not available.
Other new projects provided for
in the bill include Weber Basin,
Utah, $1,350,000; Cheyenne divis-
ion, Rapid Valley Unit, Missouri
basin, Wyo., S. D., $1,000,000; Miss
ouri-Souris diversion, Mont, S. D.,
$2,O0O,000.

About Libby Dam

Libby dam, while a considerably
larger project, is not as far along
as the Tiber dam. Here is the Lib
by papers account of dam devel-
opments printed in their last issue:
Headline was U. S. Army Team
Inspects Four Dam Sites Here.
Planning for the proposed Lib
by dam has entered a more active
stage, Col. Norman A. Matthias,
newly-appointed chief of the Sc
attle district office, U. S. Army En-
gineer Corps, told The Western
News while on an official visit to
Libby last week.
The Western News received
word this afternoon( July I'D that
a group of four Army engineers
are enroute to Libby from the Sc
attic district office and are ex-
pected to arrive here tomorrow,
Friday. They are t. E. Ward, H.
D. Emprys, R. L. Cooley and H.
Koch.
The group will remain here for
about two months while develop
ing test drilling for further foun-
dation exploration work at a spot
beginning three miles upstream
from Libby.
The Engineers will issue call
for bids on July % for the drilling
operations. Bids will be opened
about mid-August.
Col. Matthias led a group of IL
engineers and geologists from the
office of the Chief of Army En-
gineers at Portland, Ore, on an
inspection tour of alternate sites
for the proposed dam last Satur-
day morning.

Golfers Purchases
Johnson Articles

Dorothy M. Johnson, genial news
editor of the Whitefish Pilot, has
hit again. Golfers magazine has
purchased three more of her fic-
ton articles.
The first is scheduled to appear
in August, and is based on a story
of a white man who returned to
the Crow Indian tribe where he
once lived after he became an old
man.
Miss Johnson grew up in
Whitefish, and was graduated from
Montana State university.
There followed a 15-year period
in New York City where she be-
came editor of the Women's maga-
zine.
About two years ago she decided
to return to the Flathead, and to-
day is the local writer who is most
frequently having material pub
lished in the big.name magazines.
Last May in Missoula Miss john
son received the Business and
Professional Women's award as the
outstanding Montana woman for
1852.
1t is a considerable asset to have
a successful and prolific writer liv-
ing in the Flathead. In addition to
fiction, Miss Johnson has been
turning out a number of pieces
about Glacier. MR.

Reclamation employees are en-
ployed at the camp now, but with

group wound up its work here
early Saturday afternoon after ex-
amining all of the four alternate
sites, including the original loca-
tion near Jennings.
The final location of the Libby
dam is still undecided, Col Mat
thias said, and intimated that more
time will be required before any
conclusion can be reached. In this
connection he confirmed daily
press reports that the Army en-
gineers contemplated additional
exploratory work and said that a
contract for such work may be let
next month.
President Truman last week GER
titled another 100000 out of the
100000 appropriated by Congress
so far for planning work.
