R&dsport to Buy Chlorinator For Its Water System Water mains at Reeds port should he replaced In the near future, the Reeds port City Coun cil was told at its regular meeting Monday night by Water Superin tendent Willadsen. He said the section extending from the chlor inating plant near Winchester Bay to the tunnel south of Reeds port i in "especially bad shape." This main, he pointed out, is old steel pipe and has been patched many times . lor leaks and other repairs. A letter was read from the State Board of Health, advising that the present system of chlor inating is "not too efficient" due to the greatly increased amoun of water being consumed since the system was installed. Willadsen was authorized to purchase and install a gas type chlorinator, which will cost about $2,300. Much of this purchase price should be saved, it Is esti mated, in the cost of operation as the new type is cheaper to oper ate. The matter of a house built In the street, where the road to the I'mpqua Addition leaves Win chester Ave., was referred to the street committee. Mr. and Mrs. I'lfher, owners of the house, will am-mpt to buy property on the opposite side of this road, so an exchange can be made without cutting down the width of the street. TThe road to I'mpqua Addition, built by the Doernbecher Manu facturing Co., was put practically on private property at this point. Warren Waggoner, logging super intendent for the Doernbecher Co., stated that he had been un able to get all the logs off In the time allowed, and asked for an extension until Aug. 31, 1949, which was granted. Building Move Studied .Vernon Collver, owner of the Reedsport Cleaners, asked per mission to "move his two-story dwelling from its present location near the building occupied by the cleaners 1o a lot he owns on M street. This vacant lot is now in a fire zone prohibiting this type of structure. The matter was re ferred to the building committee for study. Collver stated he was anxious to get the building moved, as he wanted to start construction of a new building on Fir street in the near future. P.. J. and John Hubbard inquired as to the progress made in plan ring a sewer system for Wade's Flat, as they have property that will be served by this system.

He also advocated the passing of an ordinance prohibiting the in stallation of self-service gasoline dispensing stations, as the state fire marshal's office considers this type of installation a great fire hazard. Such an ordinance was passed. Reports to Council Willadsen reported on work done since he was employed as water and stret commissioner. This includes work on the water system both in Reedsport and in Winchester Bay, the oiling of 13 blocks of street and the prepara tion of nine more blocks to be oiled next year. A letter was read from Dr. E. J. Walnscott, county health offi cer, offering to work with city officials on clearing up conditions here that he considers health haz ards. There are places in Reeds port where property owners have not connected with the sewer sys tem, using cesspools Instead. The council approved the appli cation of Fread's Hi-Way Grocery for a package store liquor license. J. B. Bedingfield of Coos Bay submitted his resignation as at torney for the city in its suit with Russell J. Hubbard over title to the old Umpqua Mill A Timber Co. property. He said he had been unable to secure a decision on this matter, pending in Circuit Court over a long period of years. He suggested that Paul Geddes, Rose burg1 attorney, be allowed to handle the case alone. Issues to le Voted Ctiy Attorney John Purvis re ported on his investigation of the various phases of city manager and city commission form of gov ernments, and on Information se cured from the League of Oregon Cities on this subject. The council decided not to put this matter of changing the pres ent form of government on the ballot this fall, as had been sug gested, as the people have a right to petition for such a change if they want it. A resolution was passed sub mitting to the voters the pur chase of Eel Lake from the State Game Commission, as this would require a bond issue. A .majority of the council feel that this pur chase would insure a sufficient water supply for future develop ment. It was reported to the council that transients were often en deavoring to get "sleeping privi leges" at local churches, some thing that cannot safely be al lowed in those quarters.

Alaska Election Effects Disputed By Rival Leaders JUNEAU. Oct. 14 V-Democratic and Republican leaders disputed today the significance of Alaska's slowly mounting elec tion returns.

Ernest Gruening claimed, on the basis of the "as Alaska goes, so goes the nation" precedent, that the trend presaged a national Democratic victory in the No vember election. Henry A. Benson, secretary of the Alaska Republican Central Committee, hailed the election returns as showing Republican gains in the legislature, assert ing: "Early returns indicate Repub licans have increased their mem bership in the Alaska senate and will exercise control In the next legislature. Individual Republi can candidates in every district are leading in the race for both senate and house." In citing the value of Alaska elections as a national political barometer. Governor Gruening declared: "In no presidential year since the Harding election has the delegate elected In Alaska been of a different party from the president chosen by the nation'." Benson also claimed that the conclusive vote for abolition of fish traps "is In support of the Republican position on that is sue." Returns from 79 of 223 pre cincts showed Congressional Del egate E. L. Bartlett, a non-voting congressman, leading his Repub lican opponent, R. H. Stock of Anchorage, 13.657 to 3.821. J.

Goetz, 10,746 to 5.618. Frank H. Metcalf, incumbent Democratic highway engineer, led Donald I. MacDonald, a Re publican, 9.419 to 7,748.

MOSCOW, Oct. 14 Ml The Russian people were told In dis patches from Paris todav the United States, aided by Britain, seeks to corner the worlds atomic raw material under the protection of international con trol. The dispatches from Tass, the official Soviet news agency, were displayed prominently in all newspapers and broadcast to re gional newspapers throughout the U.S.S.R. The report said: "The whole course of debate and results of the voting tin the United Nations) show the United States and England do not desire abolition of atomic weapons and control1 of atomic energy. Their chief aim Is to create under the banner of international control a supertrust with whose help the United States could bring to hand the atomic raw material through out the world necessary to America for an atomic arma ments race and establish Its con trol over the economy of other nations."

Truman Raps Opponents, Claims a 'Smoke-Out' (Continued from Pagt One) would seek to curry favor by put ting on the mantle of such prin ciples In order to further their own political ambitions." Opponents Scared He took oft the gloves last night at St. Paul with a descrip tion of Gov. Thomas E. Dewey as a maker of "mealy mouthed political speeches" and a user of empty "catch phrases'' like "unity" and "efficiency." . . Andi In a speech sprinkled with New Deal phrases, he declared that the Republicans had changed Senator Joseph H. Ball from a flgther "on the people's side" to one of the "champions of reac tion." He called for the election of Minneapolis Hubert Humphrey to Ball's senate seat as a "fight ing liberal." and diagnosed Ball's alleged- change as a "dose of Potomac fever." In his St. Paul rally, one of the sharpest talks of his campaign, the president Invited all liberals to fight with him for "the right kind of unity" under Democrats. WhllP he didn't call Governor Dewev's name, he linked him with "recent converts" to a bi partisan foreign policy he said were preaching "me, too, but 1 can do it better." An audience which overflowed the 3.600-seat hall whooped it up In approval as he declared the GOP liked the government o well they wanted to "buy it." He pulled foreign policy dl rectlv Into the campaign, assert ing Gov. Dewey supplied no unity on that front as late as 1944. Mr. Truman said Republican leaders were "mainly Isolationist" In 19t0 with "half the world in flames." WWows, Doors & Paint PACE LUMBER & FUEL 164 E. 2nd Ave. S. Phone 24: 14, I94& Fears of Price Drop May Affect Meat Production (Continued from' Page One) prefer to put their corn under government price support loans and thereby escape anv risk that might be involved in feeding the grain to livestock. The Department Itself reported similar skepticism among corn bell cattle feeders In a rexirt yes terday. It said the volume of beef cattle to be fed in the corn belt this winter may not be greatly different from a year ago because of a "cautious attitude among farmers and financing agencies. The "uneeitainty of future prices" of beef cattle was said to be the main factor back of this cautiousness. This farmer uneasiness also has been expressed in heavy October marketing of hogs. The recent drop in feed prices had been ex pected to lead farmers to hold nogs for fattening to heavy weights. But the reverse has been the case. Hogs are coming to market at considerably lighter weights than a year ago and In larger numbers.

Dewey Urges 'Teamwork' In Government Affairs (Continued from Page One) Kansas City Pendergast organi zation. In an area embracing the dis trict where Mr. Truman purged a Democratic congressional can didate in 1946 only to have his choice lose-to a Republican, the New York governor was expect ed to bear down on ballot box integrity. Senator Kem (R.-Mo.) tried unsuccessfully for months to win a congressional investigation of Attornev General Clarks han dllng of the Kansas City vote frauds. In the 1946 Democratic race President Truman backed Knos CROWN'S CCOC-OF-THf -MONTH FROM THt OAtlfJ MRS. MINNII M. CLARK The Dellet, Orefe 1 1 reft an OJD nxxann J 51 A. Axtell over Incumbent Rep. Roger C Slaughter in the fifth Missouri congressional district. Axtell won the nomination but lost to Republican Albert Reeves Jr, in the general election. The GOP nominee's Interest In Missouri primarily was In at tempting to wrest the president's home state from him. Oklahoma Chance Slim He spent the day In Oklahoma yesterday, however, largely on a mission that even some of his friends thought was futile an attempt to elect Rep. Ross Rizley, Republican, as the next senator from Oklahoma. Dewey made 12 speeches something of a record for him in Oklahoma. The consensus of local politi cians was that while Dewey has some chance to carry Oklahoma, his margin would have to be larger than expected to pull Riz ley to victory with him over the latter's opponent, former Demo cratic Gov. Robert S. Kerr. Dewey talked mostly of world peace with the clear Implication that the chances of avoiding war would be much better if the Re publicans gain control of the White House in November. In Oklahoma City, he told one of the largest crowds of listeners in his camaign estimated at 2U,- 000 by Police Captain Tom Webb that it he is elected he will free the government of the shackles of confusion and de featism and despair."
