, 1 am submitting you- herewith
correspondence with manufacturer
of chlorination pinnt, and in view
jof the fact that it might be neces
isary to treat the water this suni
jmer, I think that this plant or some
lotiicr one should he purchased and
installed. The expense Installed
I would be In the neighborhood of
$800. I believe this to be good
health insurance, even If it were
pot necessary to use the plant at
all. There Is always a possibility
of either water shortage or contnml-
therefore I would reconi-
ccpt in the high places and stock is
doing well.

In view of the fact that many of
our citizens hnVc purchased Liberty
bonds, believing it their patriotic
duty to do so, but who at the suuie
time are in arrears on improvement
assessments, I would suggest that
the city instruct tho Recorder to ac
cept Liberty Bonds in lieu of cash
In payment of Improvement assess
ments. I do not believe that there
Is any legal difficulty to be encoun
tered by this action and I do believe
it would result In lessening the
burden upon many of our citizens.
We could apply Beaver Creek sink

respectfully ask your consideration

Zola Uurk's reiiupst - for a license
to operate a rooming house. Sadie
Dixon of the Oregon hotel on Depot
street was also refused such a li
cense and as a result La Crando
will be short two rooming bouses
from the total number.
This action followed the passing
of an ordinance licensing the busi
ness of conducting a rooming house.
Such an ordinance was found neces
sary In order to get rid of a cer
tain class of business that Is not
considered desirable In any well re
gulated community.
Dance halls came In for consider
ation and the Zuber hall, which has
been used for dancing was refused
license for further operation.
