MnCorkle over the nrh crematory committee. It Is the desire of the latter body, and the residents of East Portland ftenerally, that a cltv crematory be located near the mouth of the Willamette river, far enough down that the north winds will not make It offensive to the city. Barges covered with galvanised Iron would be used to curry the waste down the river and the city would collect the garbage three times a week at a cost of obout 26 cents a month -to householders. Resolutions to this effect were adopt ed and will be presented to the east side clubs for Indorsement and then referred to the city council. Joseph Supple estimates hat 2a barges for cre matory use could be purchased for 150. 000 suid perhaps less, : Councilman Kel laher announced that-, after conferring with people In 'Other parts of the city, he had learned that the' east side plan would be heartily Indorsed. The- water committee decided to rec ommend that the laying of all mains ander 10, Inches be psid for out' of the Income from water .rates and that mains 10 inches and over be laid at the ex pense ef the general fund. It was de termined now- to ask for the proposed reduction In water rates until after the mains had bela laid. V . --.
