Startling shortages in the amount of
money actually at the disposal of the
city council of Oregon City were
brought to light In an executive ses
sion of that body held Monday even
ing, by Chairman H. M. Templeton of
the finance committee. According to
this report, it the present rate of spend
ing the city's money Is maintained,
the budget apportionment made at the
first of the year, will fail to meet the
demands on the treasury by $1,053.19.
The hope of the city council lies !n
the fact that the fire track, for which
$3,818.81 was set aside In the budget,
has not yet been authorized, and it is
from that fund the deficit Is to be
made up.
As shown in the report of the city's
finances published Sunday, there is a
deficit of $2,980.99 in the amount of
money received by the city from its
available sources of income, caused by
a miscalculation by someone and by
the transfer of West Linn after the
budget was made.
Taking this amount from the fund
allowed for the fire truck and apply
i ing the balance then in the fire truck
fund, $837.72, to the total shortage
of $1,053.19, which the city faces at
its present rate of operation, and
there is still a deficit of $215.47. This
is made still less by the fact that
there will be no city election this fall,
and it may be that no appraisers will
be needed and so $174 more is avail
able, leaving an actual deficit of
$4147. f
Councilman Templeton, in his re
marks to the council, paid a high trib
ute to the members in charge of the
work of the street department, because
of the good showing that they had
made on the amount of money at their
disposal.
"However," said Mr. Templeton, "it
is not just to attempt to make a street
committee of a city the size of Ore
gon City, confine itself to a budget
allowance of anything less than $10,-
000."
The cost of improving Molalla,
which was not included In the pub
lished report, brings the balance in
the fund for permanent road improve
ments down to $1155. From this fund
all street improvements undertaken by
the city within the next five months
will have to be paid for. With paving
costing $303 a block for a strip 20 feet
wide, and street cross-walks costing
$20 each, it was pointed out to the
council that little new work could be
attempted. The supplies account of
the street department has already been
over drawn to the extent of $171.60
It was voted by the council, after
considerable discussion, that the im
provement of the 40 or more cross
walks needing attention, should be
made the first order of business, and
that the funds for the same should be
taken from the $1155 now In the hands
of the street committee.
The cross walks are to be construct
ed of Richmondite paving, by Ed Olds,
and the majority of the walks to be
improved are on Seventh street and
important neighboring streets.
The library committee is to be noti
fied, in compliance with the terms of!
a motion passed Monday night, that
they have already spent $978.16, and
that if the present rate is maintained,
the committee will face a deficit of
$126.86, which the council advises the
committee, it will not be responsible
for.
The transfer of lots 1, 2, 7 and 8 In
block 151, Oregon City, to H. C. CroaB
in return for $600, was authorized by
the council Monday night after It was
shown to the satisfaction of all pres
ent that the cost of keeping it would
be greater than the difference in the
amount of liens against it and the
price paid by Mr. Cross.
The property in question is located
between Adams and Jackson streets
and 14th and 15th streets.
The following members of the coun
cil were present Monday night: May
or Hackett, City Engineer Charles Mil
ler, acting recorder; and Councilmen
Templeton, Tobin, Buckles, Freder
ichs, Bridges and Van Aucken.

I COAL
10 TAKE GREAT DROP
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22. Events
shaped rapidly today toward relieving
the threatened coal shortage and high
prices for fuel throughout the coun
try. Tentative prices, averaging about
$2.23 a ton for home sizes, fixed by
President Wilson for coal at the mouth
of every bituminous mine went into
effect. Prices to retailers and con
sumers will follow shortly.
H. A. Garfield, president of Williams
college, and now chairman of the wheat
price fixing board, has accepted the
post of fuel dictator. His installation
will follow completion of his present
wheat task.
The rates of profit to be fixed by
the president is expected to be 20
cents a ton for wholesalers and 50
cents a ton for retailers. This, added
to the president's prices at the mouth
of the mine in the 29 coal districts
of the country, together with railroad
freight and expenditures of local de
livery, will afford every city a working
basis for figuring the coal costs to
the American home. Costs for the av
erage house should be figured on
prepared sizes, which are 25 cents
higher than the "run of mine" coal.
The president's prices at the mines
range from $1.90 with big coal veins
to $3.25 in Washington state's small
veins.
President Wilson announced pro
visional prices for bituminous coal at
the mine.
While it is stated that the prices are
"Not only fair and Just bat liberal as
well," it was declared by men In touch
with the coal situation that the figures
would prove a severe blow to the pro
ducers. The prices are fixed by states and
range from $2 to $3.25 for run of mine
and $2.15 to $3.50 for prepared sizes,
to $1.75 to $3.00 for slack or screen
ings. These prices will affect the public
machinery through which the costs
Piling up through middlemen may be
cut down has not yet been selected.
Prices fixed for Pacific northwest
states, f. o. b. mine basis for tons of
2000, are as follows:
Montana: Run of mine, $2.70; pre
pared sizes, $2.95; slacker screenings,
$2.45.
Wyoming: Run of mine, $2.50; pre
pared sizes, $2.75; screenings, $2.25.
Utah: Run of mine, $2.60; prepared
sizes, $2.85; screenings, $2.35.
Washington: Run of mine, $3.25;
prepared sizes, $3.50; screnlngs, $2.
Old Folks Saved
From Suffering
Mrs. Mary A. Dean, Taunton, Masn.,
in her 87th year, nays: "I thought I
was beyond the reach of medicine, but
Foley Kidney rills have proven most
beneficial in my case."
Mr. Sam A. Hoover, High Point,
N. C, writes: "My kidney trouble waa
worse at night and I had to get up
from Ave to seven times. Now I do
not have to get up at night, and con
sider myself in a truly normal con
dition, which I attribute to Foley Kid
ney Pills, as I have taken nothing
else."
Mrs. M. A. Bridges, Robinson, Mass.,
says: "I suffered from kidney ail
ments for two years. I commenced
taking: Foley Kidney Pills ten months
ago, and though I am (1 years of age,
I fpil like a 16-year-old girl."
Foley Kidney Pills are tonic,
strengthening1 and up-buildlnB, and
restore normal action to the kidneys
and fo a disordered and painful blad
der. They act quickly and contain
no dangerous or harmful drugs.

BABY BOATS
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-lmme.ll-ate
expansion of building facilities of
the United States to double or treble
the output of destroyers in the next
18 months was the object of a con
ference today between Secretary Dan
iels and representatives of 25 or more
ship and engine builders.
"If we get wnat we want," the sec
retary said, "the United States will
have more destroyers than any other
power. They are the one thing that
a submarine fears."
The secretary indicated that all de
stroyers the builders could produce
would be ordered. Every effort of
the department would be laid upon
speeding up the many contracts now
pending.
Every aspect of shipbuilding that
bears upon destroyer production was
taken up at the conference. There is
no shortage of material or plant fa
cilities, but a difficulty in obtaining
high power engines, boilers and re
duction gear.
Secretary Daniels said no addition
al submarine chasers would be ordered
at present. The chasers are valuable
as harbor and shore patrols, but de
stroyers are superior, even, for these
duties, and have in addition sea going
qualities, which make them of far
greater value in all other ways.
Every suggestion that the ship and
engine builders had to make today
as to additional motive power for de
stroyers was given close attention.
Equipping some of the new vessels
with oil burners was among the sug
gestions. As to the plants at which the new
destroyers will be laid down. Secre
tary Daniels said he favored expan
sion of the plants already building
destroyers as the most efficient means
of Breeding , up. Experience gained
In previous building will enable such
plants to turn out ships more quickly,
't Is felt, than would be possible for a
plant new to the work.
Secretary Daniels' decision shows
that the officers who have been con
tending that the best answer to the
U-boat was to turn out an enormous
number of destroyers, have carried
their point They were backed by re
ports from VIce-Admtral Sims, found
ed on his experience in European wa-
ters.
