SnowPack Two Thirds Of Normal

A serious shortage OF snow pack
exists in this section OF North
western Montana. The deficiency
if it continues is of concern espe-
cially to downstream powerplants
and irrigation users.
The annual Feb. l snow meas
urement trips up the Flathead riv-
er's South Fork found about halt
the snow depth and water content
figures of year ago, and ap-
proximately two-thirds of what is
considered average, reports Ed
Morris, Flathead National Forest
engineer.
Johnson Flying Service out of
Missoula measured snow depth and
water content at the headwaters
of the Flathead's South Fork. They
found 14.2 inches of snow and 3
inches water content at Basin creek
compared to last years 48 inches
snow and 1873 inches water con-
tent. At Holbrook it was 21.9 inches
snow, So inches water compared
to last years AZ and II inches.
Tom Triplett of Flathead Ma
tional Forest with Jerry LaRue of
the U. S. Geological survey took a
four day trip to Spotted Bear that
started Jan. 81. They drove a 4
by 4 truck to Betty Creek work
center with some difficulty, and
then. continued on by Tucker Sno-
cat to Spotted Bear ranger station
which became their headquarters
They found 26.5 inches of snow
and So inches water content at

French Techniciuns
To Advise Plant

Jean Collet of Paris, France, a
chief technician for the Pechiney
Co. is expected to arrive in the
Flathead Monday, and will serve
as a consultant at the new Anacon-
da Aluminium Co. plant until next
fall. Mrs. Collect is with him.
The new Montana plant is using
the vertical pin Soderberg pot de-
sign developed by the Pechiney
Co. at their plant at ST. Jean de
Maurienne in the French alps near
the Swiss border.
Several of the AAC plant super
visors were in France last year.
The coming of Monsieur Collect
presented the problem of an inter-
prefer who had an engineering
background and could speak
French. A likely prospect appear:
to be a French engineering stu
dent at Gonzaga university II
Spokane who became an American
citizen through U. S. Army serv-
ice.
About March l two mor'
Frenchmen are coming from ST
Jean de Maurienne for the sprlnl
and summer months. They are Al
bert Gerelle, a paste plant fore
I man, and Marcel Ambulant, pc
specialist. Four others are to ar
:: rive about May /.
i This is creating jobs for tw
additional interpreters that have
. technical background and ca
speak French.
The French vertical pin pot
. considered the method of obtain
; ing the most aluminium with tn
| least electricity, and offers the be-
) known methods of controlling con
tamination.

Meet With Officials
On N. F. Highway

Glacier National Park and Flat
head National Forest officials were
guests of Columbia Falls Chamber
of Commerce officers and directors
Monday noon at luncheon and
discussion of proposed North Fork
road improvement.
Other guests at the luncheon at
Todd's were Joe Crosswhite, pres
ident of the Montana Branch of
Operating Engineers, and Column
bia Falls Mayor Herman Benzien.
F. J. Neitzling, forest supervisor
was unable to be present.
Ed Morris, Kalispell, Flathead
National Forest engineer, told the
chamber that to his knowledge
there wasn't a mile of forest high
way secondary road in Flathead
county. The Swan lake road is a
part of the primary system since it
is connecting. If the North Fork
highway extends into Waterton
National Park it could become a
primary route.
i The forest highway system pro-
vides 100 per cent federal partici-
patton in construction while the
state secondary highway system
projects are 81 per cent federally
financed and 40 per cent from state
sources.
! The chamber went on RECORD
favoring the forest highway system
!, and instructed the secretary to
contact Flathead county commits
. Sioners.
. Supt. J. w. Emmert was accom-
panied by Stanley c. Joseph, Gla-
cier National Parks new assistant
, superintendent.
Emmert told the group that Gla-
cier was much interested in fig
: ure s highway that would include
r u. S. No. 2, Sun highway and i'm
provement of the North Fork roao
: into Waterton Lakes Nationa
Park, Alberta.
Decisions at the meeting wa!
: that location of the route in Can
ada was up to the Canadians. Their
: is interest in Waterton and Albert;
for such a road. British Colunbl
is less interested and the rOut'
: crosses corner.
= Supt. Emmert said that he ha'
ridden horseback from Akamin
q pass down to the North Fork. H
+ said the route presented few con
o struction problems.
> The park superintendent adde
: that if there is an improved roa
1t from the Flathead into Waterto1
: one should think in terms of 500
and 10000 cars a day using such
20 route in time.
a The chamber directors went o

commissioners to give the matte
is of new bridge at Polebridge fir
l. priority on the North Fork i'm

st with action taken by the White

The last big play on silk
pongee as a favorite fashion
fabric came during the sos.
Then the fabric sort of went
into a decline. Right now
pongee is enjoying its biggest
revival since that time. Alan
Phillips, young designer in
town today at Garf1nckelS
presenting his new collection
designed for Richard Cole,
told us that a lot Of women
are wearing pongee as an
answer to finding a fabric
that is cool, possesses a luxury
look, and at the same time
won't pull like shantung. for
example. at the seams.
In full or slim silhouettes
the fabric is getting a ire
mendous reception. In travel
ing throughout the United
States, Mr.. Phillips has dis
covered a uniformity in
the request of most women
in wanting dresses for warm
weather suitable for sub
urban and city wear at the
same time. They all want COOL
looking dresses, not too closed
up, and not too open, and with
a little sleeve. They want a
dress whose styling isn't keyed
to a specific time of day. He
predicts carbon colors like
charcoal brown with black,
charcoal blue with black, are
going to be the summer color
favorites for the dark sophis-
ticated town cotton many
women like to wear.
