Procedure For Obtaining
Sewers After Annexation To
City Explained By Slankard
How resident of suburban areas may obtain sewers after they
become a part of the city, was told today by City Manager M. W.
Slankard.
The residents of such areas would first petition the city council
for sewage disposal lines to serve their property. After due con
sideration, the council would request the city manager to secure
plans, specifications, and cost of the requested sanitary improvements.
Plans would be drawn and an
estimate of cost obtained. The
council would hold a hearing for
the area affected. Citizens resid
ing in the area would be given
an opportunity to voice their ap
proval or disapproval of the
plans.
If the citizens felt that the es
timated costs were too high, the
whole matter would be dropped.
If no opposition were voiced, bids
would be called for and a con
tract awarded to the lowest bid
der, if he's within the manager's
estimate.
In the event a contract Is
awarded It would be up to the
city engineer and city manager
to see that the contractor docs
the work according to the speci
fications agreed upon by the city
council and the citizens of the
area concerned. In no case can
the cost exceed the manager's
estimate.
The period from the time peti
tions are presented until con
struction Is started is usually
about 90 days. If the engineering
is started right away, it is pos
sible to cut this waiting periol
to 60 days, depending upon the
work to be done.
"The city crewi are In much
better posiilon now than ever be
fore to maintain the sewers and
streets in this expanding city,"
said Slankard. "Note ihnuld "be
made of the excellent work doi:e
this past summer on the resi
dential streets within the city.
"The city in the future expects
to do more maintenance work
on all existing streets. The past
year saw many unimproved
streets made passable with use
of the city maintainer and equip
ment," the city manager added.
"In case an area becomes a
sanitary district before becom
ing a part of the city, that area
would still be obligated to pay
off its financial burden. Finan
cially, a city is far better fixed
to back bonds than a sanitary dis
trict is." Slankard declared.
Roseburg's bonded indebtedness
for general obligation bonds will
be $11,000 at the end of the cur
rent year, the city manager
pointed out. Bonding companies
would buy bonds from a sanitary
district in the event the area be
comes a part of the city. Slank
ard added that sometimes a san
itary district is unable to sell
bonds even after approving a
bond issue.

Gen. MacArthur To Ease
Rules For Jap Fishermen
TOKYO, Sept. 21. UP Gen
eral MacArthur has decided to
ease somewhat the restrictions
on Japanese fishermen, It was
learned. But no change in the
prescribed fishing area is expect
ed in the announcement.
The Japanese are observing
fishing regulations and have
earned more leeway, one official
said. This has been the result,
he said, of headquarters' assur
ance that only by keeping within
the restrictions could the fisher
men earn the respect and trust
of other countries concerned.
Any change in the MacArthur
line to provide a larger fishing
area would be of minor value, it
was pointed out. The catch is up
to 90 per cent of prewar despite
an area of operations only one
fourth as large. This is due to
improved fishing methods.
This vear's catch Is expected to
exceed 7.000,000,000 pounds with
even more next year.

NEW YORK-t.inA Brooklyn
chemical engineer haj a Job any
kid in America might envy he
testa bubble gum all day long.
Gets paid for it, too.
"It took me two months to blow
my first bubble, said Dr. Morris
Nafash, research director for the
Bazooka Bubble Gum company.
"Now I blow about a hundred
bubbles a day."
But he has a 12-year-old son
who can beat him.
It is his duty to test the texture
and elasticity of the gum and to
develop new flavors. He came to
his post after 11 years as re
search associate of Columbia uni
versity's department of chemical
engineering.
Takes Scienca
"At first, I didn't see how I
could keep busy," said Dr. Naf
ash, a small, dark earnest man
of 49. "But I have found bubble
gum a real challenge. It takes ill
the scientific knowledge I have.
You'd be amazed at the research
going into this penny product."
Fortunately, American inven
tive genius got started first, and
the United States now has at
least a five-year-edge over So
viet Russia In bubble gum pro
duction. "Other countries copy our
wrappers," said Dr. Nafash com
placently, "but none can dupli
cate the gum itself."
Bubble gum is a $10- to $15 mil
lion dollai a year industry and In
tensively competitive. There are
about 25 companies that turn it
out.
Adults Too
"Quite a few adults are turn
ing to bubble gum because they
get more for their money," said
Dr. Nafash. "It has about three
times as much sugar as ordinary
gum."
The gum base Itself Is either
kynthetic or natural rubber plas
ticized with resins, waxes and
oils. And if the gum doesn't snap
back into shape the children soon
find it out and boycott that
brand. They spread the word
quickly to their pals.
"We go on the theory that the
average kid is a shrewd buyer."
said Dr. Nafash. "A pennv is oft
en his entire capita, and he de
mands more for his money than
the grownup."
As a result the bubble gum
business has had to develop spe
cial gimmicks to enclose In the
gum wrappers like tattoo pic
tures, photos of athletes or movie
stars. Unlike the radio giveaway
programs, no manufacturer has
been able yet to enclose a trip
to Paris with his gum. But it
may come. The kids are always
demanding something new.
Dries Quickly
To make bubble gum more ao-

It isn't so easy for them to stick

table for future chewing.
"My own kids solve this by

ash.
There has been concern voiced
over the increasing size of the
bubbles. Some parents have fear
ed .tunior might blow a bubble so
large he's be wafted aloft by a
strong wind.
Dr. Nafash sava this Is unlike
ly. "The largest bubble I ever
heard of was only 12 inches in
diameter, and that was blown In
a championship contest. A bubble
of eight to ten inches is very good
ior an amateur.
"It Isn't probable that kids will

SALEM, Sept. 21. (IP) A
valuable historical record, con
taining the' names of everv fam
ily living In Oregon In 1850, la
bein prepared b David Duni
way, slate archivist.
It la being compiled from fed
eral census records. The popula-
nun oi viregon was u.ro at mat
time, and was concentrated in the
Willamette valley and on the
coast.
Duniwav said 2.000 conies of the
book would be published. When It
is nnisnea, ne will prepare a simi
lar book for 1890, when the popu
lation or me siate was aii.YiH.
He said he has run onto some
tough problems. 1 he worst is the
fact that the 1850 census takers
wrote down the family names by I
ear, instead of having the family 1
heads write them down. 1
This resulted In some weird
spellings. Kor Instance, the j
pioneer Marlon county Ahst fam- i
ily was spelled Anps in the cen
sus. And the spellings given to
French-Canadian n a m e a are !
something to behold, Dunlway
said.
Dunlway said the book would
be of a great value to historians
and to persons who want to trace
their families. Every family head
will be indexed, both by sound and
by spelling.
