Glendale Council
Receives Report
On Street Work
The Glendale City Council met
Tuesday night at the City tiall and
received a report on the progress
of negotiations preliminary to ex
tension of Montgomery Ave. from
sixth street for approximately half
a mile.
Two property holders through
whose land the extension would
have to go, Richard Hayes and
Frank Woodley, have indicated
their willingness to sell sufficient
ground for their share of the street.
The only other party to the trans
action is the Southern Pacific Rail
road and they have agreed to give
an easment. However, it was found
that a wider strip would be nec
essary than that on which the
agreement was originally made, so
negotiations are still in progress
with the San Francisco office of
the company.
Other business of the evening
was of a routine nature, according
to Mrs. Gerald Box, News-Review
correspondent.

By Fire Underwriters
Word has been received by the
Sutherlin City Council thai the

to National Board of Fire Cndcr
writers Classification Six.
This will mean a decrease in
fire insurance rates on most prop
erties of approximately 10 per cent
upon renewal of their policies. It
does not effect present policies.
The lowering in classification was
brought about by the acquisition
of a second fire truck in 1954. ad
ditional fire - fighting equipment
made available in the city, exten
sion of fire mains and hydrants
and improvement of the entire- wa
ter system, over a period of the
past five or six years.
.The city applied for reclassifica
tion in 1954 to the Oregon Insur
ance Rating Bureau. Inspection of
facilities for reclassification was
made in August and September,
1957.
