The routing of the Pacific Highway
must go over the Fifth street line and
the improvement of the Seventh street
and Railroad avenue route cannot be
handled at the present time, according
to the forma decision of the city coun
cil at the present time, according to
the formal decision of the city council
at its regular session last evening. A
resolution, urging the State Highway
Commission to reconsider its action
establishing the Seventh street route
was adoped after a short stormy dis
cussion between the council and visi
tors. The resolution sets forth the
fact that Oregon City under the pres
en conditions, cannot 'handle the Sev
enth street improvement.
' The resolution was followed by an
immediate motion for the request of
a conference with the commission to
reconsider the matter, which has al
ready been the subject of two meet
ings.
The resolution was presented by
Councilman Fred Metzner, who urged
its adoption unciianged. The resolu
tion stated that the Fifth street im
provemen as an oulet to the outh
End road must be considered as the
only solution in view of the lack of
finances, the inability of the city to
handle the expensive condemnation
proceedings necessary in the Railroad
avenue improvement and the danger
of routing traffic over the line . past
the elevator.
The passage of the resolution was
strongly opposed by Wallace Caufield,
who urged the consideration of the
matter for a more lengthy period,
pending the receipt of promised word
front the commission summing up the
entire situation. "I don't believe we
should antagonize the highway com
mission," caufield stated, claiming
that there was a possibility of secur
ing a concession on the donation of
Oregon city toward the new bridge
which would solve the financing prob
lem to the extent of $30,000. He stat
ed the facts were not fully represented
in the resolution and intimated that
several of the "gentlemen of the "coun
cil were out of touch with the situa
tion." Caufield attacked he resolution as
improper because it was not prepared
by the city attorney. Ben Harding,
who also spoke on the proposition, ex
plained that it had been prepared by
Chris Schuebel. Metzner took issue
with Caufield, saying that they hadn't
wanted Attorney O. D- Eby to prepare
it because he was in favor of the Sev
enth street route and they didn't want
"any catches in it."
The attorney took issue with this
point.- "I have never allowed my per
sonal convictions to interfere with
my discharge of legal duty." he said.
As Metzner rose to reply. Mayor Shan
non stopped the argument by putting
the matter to a vote. The ballot for
the resolution was unanimous.
Harding, in speaking for the Fifth
street route, urged it as the only feas
ible solution to the South End road
problem, because the city did not have
the finances to construct the Seventh
street route, and further because be
believed the Main and Fiffi street
highway routing beneficial to the in
terests of the city.
The council accepted a number of
routine reports, including those of the
treasurer, water commissioner, record
er, and finance committee. All were
filed for further reference.
