PLAN TO GET HI PAVED TO WEST LINN B R1DGEJSADVANCED Cancellation of $5000 Claim Would Bring Road to Desired Point MEISSNER AND ROAKE TO BE ON SCHOOL BOARD! By relinquishing a claim of $5000 against the state highway commission by the county court for paving work done at Canemah last year the coun ty stands to secure 3000 feet more of paviDg on the ( Pacific hfehway th rough West Linn. This informa tion was given the Live Wires of the Commercial club at their Tuesday luncheon by I L. Porter, city record er of West Linn, who has interested himself in seeing that the highway 13 completely paved; present plans and the contract specifying that the new road end about one thousand feet from the end of the bridge. The value of the paving, according to the prevailing costs on the job. will be ap proximately $30,000, and the state highway commission's request that the $5000 claim against them be ex changed for this amount of Wtrk ap peared to the Live Wires to be good business. West Linn Will Pay Share Mr. Porter reported that ha was taking the matter up witn the West Linn city council and that ho thought they would atgree to give up their share of the $5000. The coun ty court and the city of Oregon City will also have to agree to the propos al before it can be consumated. The money expected from the state for the Canemah paving was to have been divided between the two cities, and the plan was to use it for inter est on the new bridge bonds, but in view of the fact that the long end of the proposeoV deal i3 in favor of the county, the Wires appeared in favor of ' granting t.e release, although no official action yas taken. School Election Discussed Outside of discussion on road .mat ters, the meeting was largely given over to discussion of the recent school directors' election, with the two de feated candidates, Clyde Mount ant M. D. Latourette, and Bert Roake, one of the successful candidates, mak ts short talks. All asked for more interest in school affairs, and said that the campaign just passed was sample of what every election should be, as far as number of votes cast was concerned. Clyde Mount said although he was' defeated, he received more votes in this one election than all of the directors elected in-the past years have received in the aggregate, Roake was victor over Latourette by the margin of one vote. The next meeting of the Live Wires will be held next Tuesday evening at 6:30, with the members and their wive3 attending, at the new auto camp ground at Canemah park. This will be the ,last meeting of the sea son. A. C. Howland, Trolley Wire, pre- J. A. Roake and Dr. C. H.

Ancient feuds graced the school elec tion. The merits pf the candidates were in many instances lost sight of. The local physicians' fight-lost scores of votes to Dr. Mount, who was in no way connected, with it, and the city hall site battle was dragged from the ashes the Mount-Green aldermanu; contest played Its par, and campaign lies circulated liEe wild fire in every ! section of the city.

MARRIAGE LICENSE ISSUED A marriage license was issued Sat urday to Leonard W. Cameron, 3fi, and Esther Hess, 26. Eoth are resi dents of-Milwaukle. The largest Instrument to ever pass through the office of the county re corder was filed with Recorder J. G Noe Thursday, when the Pacific Rail way, Light & Power company of Port land, entered for record a first lien upon their property to the National City Bank of New York. The mortgage carried $2250 in rev enue stamps, which according to Mr Noe, is indicative of a larger sum than has- ever come through the of fice before. The filing fee will be over $100. The largest filing fee on record before was $83. The charge is made on the basis of 20 cents per folio, or 100 words The completion of the filing records of the instru ments will take nearly one week. The instrument covers property in a number of counties throughout the state including Clackamas. Unclaimed Jlfoney Industrious and careful persons, who find it not al ways easy to adjust their expenditures so that they may run somewhat below their incomes and thus afford a ba sis for adding to the sum laid away for a rainy day, and who anxiously scan their bank balance after making out checks for the month's expenses, probably wondered to themselves when they read that more than $83,000,000 was lying in the United States treasury waiting for its owners to send and get it. . This money is not due as the result of successful suits against the government for work done or supplies furnished. It simply represents interest , coupons on the new issues of government bonds put out since the beginning of the late war and is immediately avail able, all that is necessary to obtain it being to present the coupons for payment. It is not necessary even for the owners of these millions to make personal application. All they have to do is to deposit the coupons in any bank and the matter will be attended to with no further trouble on their part. The money referred to is chiefly the interest due on Liberty bonds which have not been converted into permanent securities. The coupons on the temporary bonds being all cashed, the bonds themselves should be presented for exchange for new bonds, to which all un paid coupons are attached. This can be done through any bank' without expense to the owners, and it ought to be done promptly. The millions of dollars the undeposited coupons represent should be converted into credit at the bank, through deposit, the same as cash or checks. ' The large sum would add to the circulating medium, and its place is in the banks where it will be available for business us ers, and help in restoring commerce and industry to a ba sis of normal activity.
