THE MORXIXG OREGOXTAN, SATTTRD AT, FEBRUARY 28, 1920 Assurance of financial assistance from the county commission, given at a. Joint meeting of the city and county commissions yesterday, resulted in an i order to begin immediately on tne construction of a hospital building on the Kelly Butte site. Under present plans the building, equipped to han dle 58 patients, will be completed for use in less than six months. County Commissioners Holman and Muck agreed to underwrite the city for any amount found to be necessary, not exceeding :5.000 and. although Commissioner Hoyt, chairman of the j board, said that he believed the city should shift for itself, finally agreed to Join his collegues in giving finan cial assistance if the city could make a showing that such aid was essen tial to the completion of the hospi tal, v Although the proposed hospital will be in the nature of a temporary build ing, it will be so built and equipped as to give comfortable care to the Kick. It is planned to utilise it as a contagion hospital for the next two or three years, after which time, it is expected that the county will have comploted a contagion unit in con nection with the county hospital ad jacent to the University of Oregon medical school. Members of the county commission were unanimous in the promise that the county would construct and maintain a contagion hospital in con nection with the county hospital, but no promise would be given that such a unit could be completed In less than - two years. ! The plan to proceed with construe- I tion of the contagion hospital at Kelly Butte Is by the consent of all members of the city commission ex cept Commissioner Bigelow, who stub bornly stood for a makeshift build ing costing t-tOOO or J5000 in. which to house the sick. Dr. K. A. J. Mackenzie, dean of the University of Oregon medical college, told the city and county officials of the urgent necessity of a contagion hospital Immediately. He favored the plan of ultimately placing the con tagion hospital adjacent to the medi cal college, saying that proper Isola tion of contagious diseases can safely be placed in a building , on the col lege campus. After the members of the county commission agreed to underwrite the city to the extent of J25,0fl0 for the construction of a contagion hospital, the city council returned to the city hall where in a short session it was decided to proceed with all possible rapidity in the construction of the hospital. Should Commissioner Bigelow con tinue his attitude In refusing to vote for an appropriation for the building of the hospital, it will be 30 days be fore money is available, and unless arrangements can be made with building supply dealers, it will be Impossible to make much progress in the construction work during u period.

That the new land and labor league recently formed at Salem is a single tax organization in disguise and that the main aim of the new league is to put over the single tax law in Oregon, was the declaration of State Senator Walter M. Pierce of Union county, in speaking before the Port land Realty board at its regular weekly luncheon and meeting at the Benaon hotel yesterday. Senator Pierce is president of the State Tax payers' league and Is in the city to take charge of a meeting of the league scheduled to open this morn ins at 10 o'clock In the Imperial hotel. Mr. Pierce is known as the father of the per cent limitation in Ore gon, having been first president of the State Taxpayers' league and in strumental in the fight to carry the law through the Tegislature and later have it placed before the people, where it was passed and became a constitutional amendment. In' his talk before the realty board yester day he briefly discussed the subject of taxation. The matter of the city soning or dinance, which comes up for final ac tion Wednesday morning before the cKy commission, was further dis cussed and It was voted that the en tire membership of the Portland Realty board be on hand at that time to protest against the passage of the ordinance as it is drawn. The de termination was expressed by half a dozen speakers to bring the measure to a referendum of the people in case it is passed next Wednesday without alterations. It was voted to send the president of the board, V. W. German, and the secretary, Fred O. Brockman, 10 the national convention of realty boards in Kansas City in June, and it was further voted to hold a speaking com petition to select a third delegate to attend tne convention ana to repre sent- the board and the city of Port' land on the programme.
