Death of Jap Gangsters
(Continued from Page One)
Douglas MacArthur previously
had stayed the executions pend
ing action by the court.
The doomed men who appealed
from their November 12 convic
tions are Gen. Kcnjl Doihara, 64,
an undercover agent for the Jap
anese Army In China and Man
churia, and Koku Hirota, 70,
former premier who sat in on
pre-Pearl Harbor strategy talks.
Former Premier Hidekl Tojo
and four others sentenced to
hang asked no Intercession.
In a soul-searching, six-page
memorandum explaining his ac
tion, Jackson said he decided to
break the tie at a court confer
ence last Saturday. His hope, he
said, is that "fuller argument and
hearing will convert one or more
of the tustices on one side or the
other from the views that have
equally divided them in the Ger
man cases."

At the hearing also will be re.
considered the rezonlng from
residential class 2 to business the
east side of Fowler Street from
East Court to Deer Creek. The
i-ianning commission at a hear
ing last week recommended
against this change because of
insunicient evidence presented,
but the City Council is not bound
ny tne commission decision.
The matter is being reopened fol-
luwing suomission of a petition

property owners along the street

Restaurant Permit Asked
Request of Dorothy P. Houser
lor permission to operate a Chi
nese restaurant on north Jackson
Street next to the Roseburg Pet
Shop was granted, provided the
county sanitarian would approve
the location. The building In
wnich the restaurant is to oper
ate has been renovated bv Mrs
Houser. A temporary permit and
a 30-day business bond waiver
was approved by the council.
The city manager was author
ized to immediately arrange for
ine installation 01 lour bracket
lamps with 6000-watt bulbs on
tne Deer Creek bridge on North
Jackson. The city manager re
ported this could be done at rela
tively low cost to the city.
Business Bond Ordered
The council recommended that
the Stone Piano Co., operating a
piano sales business with head
quarters at Fiegel's Transfer, be
required to post a $1500 bond un
til the business could be Derma-
nently established. The company
claims its Intention is to become
Cermanent here, and Is seeking
etter quarters, t
An ordinance was Dassed to In.
elude Sundale Village and Tu.
'lor's Addition in Wards 2 and 4,
respectively. These sections were
recently annexd to the city.
Again coming up for consider
able discussion was the problem
of whe.ner the city or affected
property owners were respon-
sioie tor reminding sidewalks and
driveways along Military, Corey
and Harvard Streets, now being
widened to 40 foot widths at city
expense.
The sidewalk, especially along
Military, is considerably higher
man me curp since tne street
widening, and property owners
are unable to use their driveways.
A pedestrian hazard at night
time is also faced, the Council
has pointed out. and an altera
tion of the sidewalks and drive
ways is deemed necessary. After
considerable discussion, the coun
cil referred the matter to the
street committee and city man
ager to make further study and
recommendation to the Council.
Ben Irving and Louis Kohlha
gen, property owners along Mili
tary, were present and stated
they felt the alteration should he
done at city expense. The ques
tion of when the street and side
walk grades were established and
the legal responsibility of the city
were discussed.
Responsibility Shifted
The city manager. Instead of
the city engineer, hereafter will
be responsible for the orderine
of any additional work to be done
by contractors on contract Jobs,
the council decided, after some
rather heated discussion relative
to authorization of additional ex
penditures by the city engineer
for work on South Jackson.
It was brought out that since
the original amount of base
gravel for South Jackson was in
sufficient because of the muddy
condition, tne engineer had au
thorized additional gravel at the
city's expense. The problem in
volved, Mayor Flegel stated, was
not so much this one issue as to
what might be the limit of au
thorization on future Droiects.
