Reedsport Tax Measure Carries By Slim Margin By FRD M. WRIGHT Nwi-RvUw CorrMDonrJnt REEDSPORT A $,000 tax measure to finance construction of a community center building was approved by the voters here 129 to 108, in a special election Tuesday. The election was a spirited af fair. The local newspaper editor was against the measure and cir culated a special edition ot the paper opposing it. Mayor John Skaaluren, who initiated the ape-1 cial election, rallied the employes ' and wives of the E. K. Wood Lum-1 ber Co. In support of the meas ure and the late balloting swung the election b a close margin. The rlty will continue its pres ent tax level by this vote and in two years expects to raise the necessary $25,000. If the measure had lost, the city would have been able to reduce Its tax levy by J12..XW. This is because the neces sary funds for a new city hall have been raised. Opposition to the community hall proposal was based chiefly on the grounds h. t the mayor, who is chairman of a committee lor building a new hospital in Reeds port, has not pushed that project to a close. The hospital committee has se lected a site, which has been do nated by. the city, and several thousands of dollars have been contributed to the hospital fund by local citizens. Yet the mayor's committee has not gone ahead. ihe nospitai plans nave peen prepared. The balance of the funds necessary for completion of the hospital could he easily raised. Many of the people voting at this week's election asked for a ballot to vote on the hospital issue, an dlcaiion tney were willing to vote an extra tax. The mayor's recent announce ment that he will not be a candi date for reelection is believed In many quarters here to be a "wise move" on his part.
