BRIDGE REGULATION
IS
BANDIED ABQU
T
County Officials Deftly Pass
Buck Back to City.
BOTH EVADE POLICING
Vccesiity of Lightening Traffic on
Burnslde and Slorrlson Spans
Held Very Vrgcnt.
The buck which the city commis
sioners had passed to the county was
deftly shoved back to the city yes
terday at a meetine of the county
commissioners when the question of
regulation of traffic over the Burn
side and Morrison bridges came up.
The city only has the authority to
regulate travel over the bridges,
though their operation has been
turned over to the county, announced
the county officials, acting on the ad
vice of District Attorney Evans.
At a prior meeting Police Lieuten
ant Lewis, in charge of city traffic,
replied to the request of the commis
sioners that the bridges be properly
policed and heavy loads prevented by
informing the county officers that it
was not within the province of the
city to regulate bridge traffic, but
the duty of deputy sheriffs or other
county forces. He quoted the law to
the commissioners. According to Dep
uty Distict Attorney Mowry, who sub
mitted the-opinion from the office
of Mr. Evans, yesterday, he quoted a
law having nothing to do with the
case, affecting only county control
over such bridges as may hereafter
t) built by the county.
Cloning Bridge Saeseated.
The county officers asked the dis
trict attorney to write the city com
missioners urging them to take charge
Of traffic over Portland's two oldest
bridges at least. In order that there
might be no danger from overstrain
of peak loads.
Closing down of the"wo bridges is
presented by County Commissioner
Muck as an alternative if the city re
fuses prompt action, for he asserts
that the county commissioners do not
wish to stand in danger of publid
censure in case a serious accident
should occur on one of the bridges
through overloading.
Regulations considered necessary
for handling traffic over these bridges
would prevent streetcars from pro
ceeding closer than 100 feet apart,
forbid more than one street car to a
bridge span during an open draw
and prohibit all solid-tire trucks
weighing over two tons from crossing
the structures.
Kerry Question Open.
No definite report was made at the
meeting yesterday concerning the
probable disposition of the Albina
ferry route. Indications were that the
spots looked on as most favorable
were the old slip on the east .side,
used by the shipbuilding plant of the
Albina Engine & Machine works dur
lng the war, and the dock of the
American Can company on the west
side. A committee is Investigating
proposed locations and will report to
the commissioners shortly.
R- O. Littler, manager of the West
Coast Engineering company, protested
to the commissioners yesterday
against road races on the Columbia
river highway between Portland and
Astoria in violation of existing speed
laws and endangering orderly traffic
Amos Jjenson nas made a similar pro
test and future violators will be
dealt with summarily. It is said. Re
cent events are under investigation
by District Attorney Evans and Sher
iff Hurlburt.
Fifteen gross election pencils are
asked of the county by the city in a
letter filed with the commissioners
yesterday.
Increases of J10 a month for court
house employes are asked in a petition
presented to tne commissioners yes
terday. As with similar requests, it
was placed on file until the budget
discussion is begun.
