UNITED NATIONS, N.Y..
(AP) — Secretary of State
Dulles called on the U.N. to-
day to intervene in the Mid-
dle East situation. He said
Soviet arms in Syria pose “a
growing military danger” to
Turkey.
The secretary of state in a ma-
jor policy speech told the 82-na-
tion General Assembly “the Unit-
ed Nations may not be able by
any material power it can muster
to tranquilize the scene." But he
declared it must exert its full in-
fluence to end Soviet efforts to
dominate the Middle East.
Dulles said the Communists ap-
pear to be engaging in acts aimed
at impairing the freedom and in-
dependence of certain Middle
East nations.

DENVER —The season's first
widespread snowfall contin-
ued moderately across south-cen-
tral Montana and Wyoming's
northern border areas today. -
Nearly a foot of snow was piled
at Helena, Mont It was three feet
deep on Logan Pass in Glacier
National Park in Montana. Near-
ly as much fell in other mountain
areas.
Skies were clearing slowly to-
day. Temperatures were 10 to 30
degrees lower than 24 hours ear-
lier across Montana, Wyoming
and parts of Colorado.
A slow-moving mass of Cana-
dian cold air pushed southward.
Cool winds swept the Colorado
plains.
Light snow was falltag today
at Sheridan, Cody and Powell,
Wyo., and in southern Montana
Forecasters at Helena said snow
probably would end in Montana
today, except for the south-central
portion.
Snow depths in Montana meas-
ured dearly 13 inches at . the
Helena airport, five inches at
Butte and Whitehall and four
inches at Drummond. Fairfield
in central Montana reported 13
inches of snow, and that much
also fell yesterday on Highway
89 between Canada anderowning,
Mont.
The sudden storm snarled traf-
fic in several cities and crippled
air traffic.
Coldest early-morning tempera-
tures were reported in northwest-
ern Montana where the temper-
ature dropped to 17 at Cut Bank.

With this morning’s Garza-Little
Elm Reservoir measurement at
514.96. feet above-sea-lexel, engin-
eers at the Lewisville Dam today
declared the release of last
spring's floodwaters completed.
Resident engineer Stanely Lov-
ette said that as of 3 a.m. today
Dallas was receiving reservoir wa-
ter from the normal conservation
storage release.
Spring floods, which May 31 fill-
ed the reservoir to the point where
water began going over the dam's
uncontrolled spillway level at 532
feet, created at about 537 feet by
June 1.
FLOODGATES
Floodgates, which had been op-
ened and closed intermittantly
since May 1, were kept opened
from June 13, when the waters
stopped pouring across the uncon-
trolled spillway. In 87 days, some
156,308,245,000 gallons of Garza-
Little Elm water - a 104 - year
water supply for the city of Den-
ton at Denton’s average rate of
water consumption (slightly over
• billion gallons a year) — went
down the Elm Fork of the Trinity
River drain.
Since then, engineers have been
attempting to equalise the levels
of Garza - Litite Elm and its old
Lake Dallas arm. As of this morn-
ing, the two levels were only 2.78
inches apart.
Meanwhile, both Dallas and Den-
ton are trying to get used to the
taste of lake water. Denton Con-
sumed a total of 3.932,000 gallons
of water Wednesday, but 2,956,000
gallons was city well water and
5TO.000 gallons was lake water
pumped from the intake structure
eight miles away from the city.
