1' TIIE MORNING OREGOXIAN, WED"J2SDAY, APRIL,.?, lp20 cull HCIL AWAITING NECESSARY FIGURES Traction Problem Delayed for Engineers' Report. MAYOR BAKER SATISFIED Commissioner Bigclow Says Mind Sot Made Up as to.Subinit . ting Proposal to Voters. - City officials are trynig to unearth iactB and figures on operating costs ,f the city lines of the Portland Rail way, Light & Power company, to be tmed if the city submits the proposals of relief for the company to the voters at a special election in May. Before a measure to relieve the company and the car riders of so called unjust burdens is referred by the city council, definite information must be obtained to determine what cost will accrue to the city in the event the proposals are adopted. This information city officials had hoped to receive at Salem Monday from en gineers of the public service com mission, but because City Engineer La.urga.ard and engineers of the com mission could not agree on figures. It was decided to allow time for con ferences between them to settle the point. Flxurn Alone CobvImIbb. City Commissioner. Bigelow inti- snatcd yesterday that he had not yet decided how he would vote on the proposition of submitting the "relief proposals" to the voters. He said he would have to be convinced before he would take a stand, and that figures alone would convince him. At the Joint conference in Salem Commissioner Bigelow was the lead er in Interrogating the members of the public service commission, and this led to the belief among those present that he was opposed to the submission of any proposals to the voters. City Attorney LaRoche has .re fused to carry the brunt of giving legal advice to both the city council and the public service commission, as was indicated when he refused to give an opinion on the legal status cf submitting the "relief measures," explaining that he desired to submit Jlis ideas to the attorney-general. Criticism following his decision that the city of Portland could not legally purchase the trackage of the j company and allow the company the use of such tracks without charging a fair rental was so general that the city attorney determined to force the public service commission to obtain other legal advice on questions which relate to that body. Mayor Baker is well satisfied at the outcome of the Joint conference, believing tha'. the lengthy discussion which occurred in Salem as well as the definite results will put at rest all rumors that members of either body are attempting to "pass the buck." Both Md- Extremely Wary. Despite the mayor's satisfaction, however, it was obvious that mem bers of both bodies were extremely wary Monday, apparently fearing that unless the utmost caution was shown one or the other body would successfully "shove" the entire street car problem into the hands of the other. It was this caution that caused the members to spend several hours In "feeling"' their way before settling down to a serious discussion of the question before them. Until the decision of Attorney-General Bro.vn as to the legality of re liovlng the car riders of the so-called burdens, and until the engineers of the city and the public service oomr mission can compile necessary 'tig ores, no further action in connection with the traction problem will be taken by the city council.
