CITY FINANCES ARE DISCL'SSEO AT MEETING Of BOOtTINQ ORGANIZATION REPORT TO BE HADE TO COUNCIL Oimick's Assertion That Financial Condition Of City la Not Known Vigorously Dsnisd By Offlclsla Tb. beat Tuesday created a brain torm at tb. weekly luncheon of th. Llv. Wire, and several of th. Wires nearly ran amuck among th. cups and saucers and cigars. But whil. speech flowed freely, It was all serious and waa devoted entirely to two propor tions the financial condition of Ore gon City and th. establishment of a swimming pool William Sbeahan. J. E. Hedges, John W. Loder, T. W. 8ullivan, A. A. Price, F. J .Tooze and T. J .Gary dis cussed tbe best method of providing for the construction and maintenance of public baths, and th. consensus of opinion seemed to be In favor of plac ing the batha on a strictly business basis. Mr. Hedges, a member of tbe Water Board, aald the baths would re quire $7 worth of water per day. Mr. Loder argued that tbe basis waa not all business, and aaid tbat Oregon City would have no library, churches nor similar Institutions if only th. business side was considered. Mr. Price looked at the matter from tbe standpoint of a humanitarian, and Mr. Sullivan and W. 8. U'Ren insist ed that tbe city should take care of the baths. Mr. Tooze said supervis ion might become irksome, but It waa necessary and Mr. Hedges pointed out that usually enthusiasm waned and be warned the Wires that In the end the city would bave to take care of the expense of maintenance. The dis cussion waa doted by Mr. Gary, who asked very pointedly why the city could not supervise a public swim ming pool, when It provided super vision snd regulation for It Institu tion, meaning aaloona. City Recorder Stlpp opened up a new line of discussion, when he call ed attention to an article in a weekly paper in which It was stated that Councilman Tooze had made a mis statement and that the city had not reached its limit of bonding under the present charter. "Mr. Tooze got his information from me," declared Mr. Stlpp, "and tbe Information la absolutely correct tbat tbe city is bonded for $50,000 and it baa gone the limit under the pres ent charter. The article says a prom inent man had contradicted this as sertton of Mr. Tooze, and we would all like to know who this prominent man Is, because his statemeut is un true." Mr. Stipp was informed that tbe information came indirectly from William Sbeahan, who waa not tbe prominent man referred to, and Mr. Sbeahan explained that what he had said was that the city could issue warrants to carry its indestednesa. "There is not an officer in the city," declared Mayor Dimick, "who can tell tbe amount of the outstanding war rants. There is no report to show it and not a man living can get the In formation from tbe exlelting data. There has been transfers from on. fund to another until it would take an expert to get at the figurea." Mr. U'Ren asked if the fault was with the officials or with tb. system. Probably the fault of the system." replied tbe Mayor. "It is not possible to get a Recorder for $25 a month nor a treasurer for $40 a month to do' this work." City Treasurer Latourette explained- that the charter provided when and how hia reports had been mad. and that these reports bad been made and filed in conformity with the char ter. Mr. Stlpp declared that the system in use in conducting the city's finan ces is tbe same as la used by tbe County and State. He pointed out that the exact situation waa known to he members of the finance com mittee at the first of the year and said there are stated times when re ports are due when the exact condi tion of the finances are set out Mr. 1 Stlpp said it would be impossible to secure exact figures at irregular times . without going to no little trouble and time. Councilman Tooze poured oil on troubled matters by stating a finan cial report would be definitely aaked for at the next meeting of the coun cil. i The Live Wires will discuss the pro posed amendments to the city char ter at their next week's lunchon, which will probably be held Monday or Wednesday evening.
