16 TTTT3 MOTIXIXO OREGONIAN. SATURDAY, JULT lO. 1913. REPAIR JOB IS ISSUE Upper Washington Street Re surfacing Causes Fuss. COUNCIL DELAYS ACTION Permission Granted Property-Owners and if Tliey Fail Highway 3Iay Be Shut Mr. Baker and Mr. Dieck . Disagree. The deplorable condition of pavement In Upper "Washington street and the question of who is responsible for re pairs stirred up a lively fuss at yes terday's meeting of the City Council and in addition to starting proceed ings for immediate repairs or for the closing of the street brought to issue the general question of whether the city or property-owners shall pay for repaying streets after the first pave ment wears out. The Council went on record by unani mous vote as favoring granting per mission to the Upper Washington etreet property-owners to repair their pavement if they desire. If they refuse, it is said the only course left is for the city to pay for the work out of the street repair or general fund or to close the street. Action one way or the other is de manded by the Public Safety Commis sion. Street Called Dinccram. Chairman Coffin, of the Safety Com mission, declared before the Council that the .street is in absolutely danger, ous condition. He reported that three persons have been thrown out of auto mobiles there recently and have been severely injured. In addition, he says, many automobiles and wagons have been damaged by bumping over the deep ruts and holes. A set-to between Commissioners Ba ker and Dieck followed the declaration of Commissioner Dieck that the pave ment is beyond repair. "I think it can be repaired all right." eaid Mr. Baker. "The same talk about pavement being too far gone for re pairs was used in connection with Alder street. Repairs were made, nevertheless, and the street is as good as new." Mr. Dieck Slakes Retort. "Your opinion is not based upon facts," retorted Commissioner Dieck. The street is a failure." "Maybe so, but it doesn't show it," replied Mr. Baker. "Washington street is beyond repair. It is two-triiria gone," said Mr. Dieck. "Washington street can be repaired," declared Mr. Baker. "This is an emer gency and I am in favor of meeting 1t as such. That's the whole idea of com mission government to get results and get them quick when there is an emer gency." Commissioner Baker expressed the opinion that the City Council should establish a municipal repair plant and repair pavement on a systematic basis. "Take care of them when they first start to go and they will last longer," be said. Hawthorne Avenne Hole Cited. "There is nor a hole in Hawthorne avenue, near Grand avenue, big enough to bury a horse in. This gets bigger every day. With all the system we've got around here we ought to be able to get it fixed before it gets worse and costs more." Commissioner Dieck said he had not known of the hole and suggested that Mr. Baker might have reported it. "Your department is decidedly lax U you haven't known of that big hole, because it has been there some time, and nearly every machine going that way hit it." The discussion along this line result ed in the announcement of Mr. Coffin that his organization, in conjunction with the Automobile Club, will take the responsibility hereafter of report ing all holes of this kind in pavement. The Washington-street proposition was disposed of for a day or two by the granting of permission to the property owners to make repairs. If they fail it is probable the street will be closed.
