THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1922
RELIABLE MERCHANDISE RELIABLE METHODS.
- J ' eT a I t
$
After a lengthy conference with
City Attorney Grant and Chief
Deputy City Auditor Grutze, mem
. bers of the tax conservation and
supervision commission agreed yes
terday that the policemen's relief
and pension and the special park
and playground levies can be in
cluded in the city's budget without
any further authorization from the
voters.
It also was agreed that the coun
cil could seek authority to levy the
special 3-mill tax for general mu
nicipal purposes for two years in
stead of one, thus avoiding the ne
cessity of paying out approximately
$25,000 for a special election in the
fall of 1923.
Limit Not Exceeded.
It was pointed out to members
of the tax commission that the
policemen's pension levy as well as
that for the parks and playgrounds.
added to the regular eight mill levy
cioea not exceed the 6 per cent tax
limitation and for that reason there
was no necessity of asking the
people to re-authorize these two
lev,ies.
As a result, the council, at a spe
cial meeting last night, referred the
three-mill measure to the voters by
the adoption of a resolution, the
levy to be effective for two years.
'At the -end of that time, if the city
finds it necessary to have the spe
cial levy, the people will be asked
again to authorize its inclusion in
the budget.
Members of the city council are
preparing to wage a whirlwind cam
paign, in behalf of the 3-mill levy,
it being pointed out that failure of
the voters to re-authorize this
amount would disrupt the entire city
service.
"The city council has trimmed out
every possible item in the budget'
that is not deemed to be imperative,"
said Commissioner Barbur, "There
are many things that have been ex
cluded from the budget that are
necessary and that people are de
manding because we are trying to
hold down the city expeditures.
Service I Threatened.
"But if the 3-mill measure is not
ratified it will mean the curtailment
of service, the cutting of salaries
of city employes and cutting of
salaries will not end with the city,
for it will tend to start a gen
eral downward revision of salaries
throughout the city.
"There will not be a department
that will escape being hit, for the
three-mill levy raisen about $830,
(H)0, which wouid have to be re- ;
moved from the present budget if i
the levy fails. This means that
police and fire service must suf
fer, that the health bureau, street
cleaning bureau, public works and,
in fact, every department must
share a portion of the trimming.
'Jn my department, it is im
possible with the money that we
have been allowed in the budget
to take care of more than a frac
tion of the public works that the
people are demanding and to which
they are entitled. People building
homes want lights but if the three
mill levy fails, no new lights can
be installed and it is even prob
able that some of the present lights
cannot be maintained.
"The situation is critical anjl mem
bers of the city council have agreed
to take the stump in behalf of the
measure."

liOSEBURG BANK SEEKS TO
COLLECT OX NOTE.
Writ of Attachment Filed Cover
ing Any Property in Posses
sion of Dentist's Wife.
When Dr. R. M. Brumfield cheated
the fallows by killing himself in
hip cell at Salem recently and made
it impossible for insurance compa
nies in which he carried heavy poli
cies to escape payment on these, as
they inigrht have done under certain
provisions of their contracts if he
had been legally executed, it seemed
that the spotHKht of publicity had
flasTi-ed for the last time on 'the
name of the Roseburg dentist.
Rut this was not to be. Yesterday
. in circuit court the Douglas National
bank of Roseburjr filed suit to re
cover $1500 due on a promissory note
siRned jointly by the doctor and
Merle Brumfield, hts wife, March 29.
1921. A writ of attachment was
also-tfiled to enable the bank to take
.possession of any property it could
find in the ownership of Mrs. Brum
field. Attorneys for the bank expressed
belief that Mrs. Brumfield is living
in Portland under an assumed name,
but they have been unable to get in
touch with her as yet.
OH Bridge Being Removed.
EUGENE. Or., Oct. 6. (Special.)
The Southern Pacific company has
begun to tear down the old street
car bridge that spans the Willam
ette at Springfield. The bridge was
built about 12 years ago, and carried
the Interurban cars that run be
tween Kugene and Springfield. Early
this year the route was changed and
the cars now cross the river on the
mj bridge with the steam trains.
The concrete piers of the old bridge
will be retained as supports for the
gas mains leading from the Eugene
plant to Springfield.
