PLANS MADE READY
Health Board Soon to Call for
Bids on Crematory.
EAST SIDE MAKES DEMAND
i
Two Incinerators Suggested in Place )
of One $100,000 Structure on
West Side Walter II. Evans
. Gives East Side Argument.
Plans and specifications for construc
tion of a garbage crematory are now be
ing prepared for submission to the City
Board of Health, and It is announced that
a meeting will soon be called for select
ing the place, deciding on the manner of
advertising for bids and the time to be
allowed for local representatives of East
ern concerns to send the plans to their
home companies for estimates and bids.
East Side residents of Portland will
probably appear before the Board in sup
port of their request that the $100,000
appropriation for the Incinerator plant be
divided by the erection of two cremators,
one on either side of the Willamette, and
each suitable to the needs of the portion
of the city it is destined to serve.
Plea Made for East Side.
Speaking of the matter yesterday, Wal
ter H. Evans, Assistant United States
Attorney for Oregon, said: -
"There are a good many taxpayers in
the City of Portland that question the
wisdom of expending $100,000 for a gar
bage crematory to be situated at the
site of the present plant. It has been
stated by numerous persons that the
greatest item of expense in the disposal
of a city's refuse consists of the collec
tion charge and for that reason it has
always been my contention that a crema
tor should be located as near to the cen
ter of production as is possible.
"In 1907, I went over the city in com
pany with the then city health officer
and an expert sanitary engineer, having
in view the selection of a suitable loca
tion. The opinion of this expert was that
a location in the neighborhood of the
mouth of Sullivan's Gulch was about as
convenient a one as could be found. The
opposition to such a location Is a matter
of history. The result was that no cre
matory was purchased. but that the
vexed question of the building of a crem
atory was handed down to the present
administration. Mayor Simon and the
present Board of Health have met the is
sues fairly and are now in a splendid
way to build a crematory for Portland at
an early date.
Cost Less, It Is Argued.
"The question of the expenditure of
such a large sum of money for the erec
tion of a single plant is one wherein au
thorities may differ and I have ..con
sistently contended that the City of Port
land ought to build a crematory for the
West Side of a smaller capacity than the
one for which bids were recently Invited,
and that the Board of Health ought to
give us taxpayers who live on the East
Side of the river a plant of our own. not
that any of us consider it such a desir
able thing to have in our neighborhood,
but because it will save us money to
have a plant located on the east side of
the river. It seems very unjust to. com
pel people who reside in Woodlawn, Pied
mont, Irvington,. Mount Tabor. Brooklyn
and other East Side suburbs to pay the
expense of hauling kitchen refuse to
Guild's Lake, but our arguments usually
have been met with the explanation that
it is the expectation of the present Board
of Health to establish a uniform system
of collection, possibly by means of street
cars. "It is bard, however, to understand
why It will be any more desirable to have
a collection dump in one's neighborhood
than to have a modern, sanitary crema
tory there. If a collection shall be at
tempted by means of --the streetcars, it
will necessitate some sort of a central
point to which garbage collectors may
carry the garbage In order to deliver it
into receptacles for delivery by street
cars, and no matter how carefully such
a place may be looked after it "is bound
to be "as objectionable as a crematory It
self. Hence it would appear that the
wisest plan would be" to build now a
crematory for the East Side and later on
build another crematory wherever the
production of garbage may require it.
Garbage Collections Decrease.
"It has been observed, too, that the
production of garbage in the City of
Portland has been greatly overestimated,
if we can place any reliance on the re
ports of the superintendents who have
had charge of the destrujrtion of the
city's refuse. It is shown by the report
of the garbage superintendent for 1907
that there was hauled to the planton an
average for the year of 34 tons of gar
bage a day, while in 1908 the average
of that hauled to the crematory and
burned and dumped amounted to 31 tons
a day and, strange as It may seem, for
the year ending December 31, 1909, the
average amount incinerated and dumped
was 30 9-10 tons a day counting 3(55 days
to the year. It thus appears that the
total amount of garbage delivered to the
plant at Guild's Lake has been decreas
ing in slight proportions. How then can
it be contended that the city is in need
of a 150-ton plant at Guild's Lake?
"I am In favor of building a crematory
on the west side of the river of 6tt tons
capacity, one on the East Side with a
slightly smaller capacity and later, as the
needs require, the building of other crem
atories In other locations such as will
be the most economical."
CLUBS UNITE ON STREET
Thirty-ninth to Be Made Longest on
East Side.
East Thirty-ninth street is to be made
the leading thoroughfare on the East
Side, according to the plans of the push
clubs. It is the street selected by the
Kenllworth Improvement Association and
indorsed by the Waverly-Rlchmond and
the Woodstock clubs to extend south to
the Reed Institute site. It will be ex
tended along the east side of the insti
tute. East Thirty-ninth street already
passes through Sunnyside and Laurel
hurst into the Rose City Park district,
and the part in Sunnyside Is being im
proved with hard-surface pavement.
By the extension south, it will become
the longest street on the East Side, not
excepting Union avenue, and will pass
through all the new addition". Little re
mains to be done to have the street
opened, as most of it has been dedicated.
East Twenty-eighth street has been
selected to extend to the Reed Institute.
It will pass on the west side of the site.
