Hearing Enters Its Second Week Before Special U S Master

Pro longed cross examination of Marty H. Cochrane chief engineer of the Montana Power company was in prospect as the hearing of the companys action against the Broad water Missouri Water Users association and the state water conservation board went into its second week Monday. Initial testimony before Howard Toole of Missoula as special master showed records of water and power from 11 Montana Power plants along the river with Cochrane asked to detail month by month operation of Rainbow Ryan and Morony plants since 1930. He testified some years months at maximum capacity were not reached. The load of energy demanded by consumers dictated water releases, a factor beyond the companys control.
