KALISPELI-1o56 Montana auto
mobile tags 60 on sale Jan. 8. ac-
cording to Mrs. Freda Shanahan,
county treasurer.
Mrs. Shanahan reminds motorists
Of a new 1855 law that requires that
the motorist present his last regis
tration card at the county treasur-
er's office in order to obtain 1856
licenses.
If the registration card is not av-
ailable. there will be delay caused
by having to apply to the registrar
of motor vehicles at Deer Lodge for
a new card.
Mrs. Shanahan added that her Of
flee had a number of 1854 and 1885,
registration cards which were re
turned TO her office for lack Of pro
per address.
Her conclusion is that motorist!
who do not have their 1855 registra
ton cards make arrangements nov
to get a new one. Persons who will
be registering their automobiles il
Montana for the first time in 1875
are urged to contact the county treas
urer's office for instructions as t
papers necessary to register thei
cars. This will avoid trying to bea
a headline after the license tag

stream installations such as Kerr
Dam, Cabinet Gorge and Grand Cou-
lee at time when they are full and
oyerflowing. Hence the Middle Fork
water ruShes unused to the sea.
Hungry Horse Dam itself is the
furthest upstream of the Columbia
SYSTEMS major dams. The camille
long reservoir stores 3,468, 900 acre
feet of water and was full this year
from June % until mid-November,
and last year from July 8 to Dec. 8.
The South Forks 12-month flow is
somewhat less than capacity Of
Hungry Horse reservoir.
j Diverting water from the Middle
Fork into Hungry Horse is consider
ed in terms of improving the effect

acity for longer periods. Full-scale
power generation at Hungry Horse
is presently tended toward winter

Steps toward new Flathead hy-l

rext June with the Bureau Of Rec
lamation field survey Of the Flat
heads Middle Fork.
Objective Of such q dam is to store
and divert flood waters through al
seven mile long tunnel into Hungry
Horse reservoir on the Flathead riv-
er's South Fork.
In general charge of the program
is Charles Hazen, area engineer for
the Upper Columbia Development Of
flee Of the Bureau of Reclamation
at Spokane, and Marc Hidden, form
er office engineer at the Hungry
Horse Project, who last September
opened the new Missoula field office,
reporting to Hazen. Up until four
years ago. Hazen headed the Hungry
Horse Planning office Of the Bureau
Of Reclamation at KalispeIl, which
was consolidated with the Spokane
office.

pose Of the coming summers survey

well as causing relocation Of tn

are Walton and Rampage, five mile

There is potential damsite ne;

Engineers have been thinking

would be $4,000 foot long tunn
through the Flathead mountain ran
