DRAINAGE COSTS
FOR WILLAMETTE
HEIGHTS $18,200
- The total cost of the entire sewer
and drainage project for the pres
ervation of sections of . Wilamette
lle(ghta from possible landslides, in
dicated by the earth movements Of
last February, Is placed by City En-1
grineer O. Laurgraard at $18,200.
"I believe the owner of the property
in that district could well afford to un
dertake the proposed work," says Laur
. (raard In a report to Commissioner of
Vublic Works Barbur. -
"It would be necessary for the city
to repair the damage which has been
done to Thirty-first street by the slide.
The earth excavated f rom . these ! fills
could be dumped and placed on Thirty
first street. I believe, therefore,' that
The city would be Justified In cooperat
ing to some extent , on this Improve
ment." " !
He recommends the working out of a
tentative preliminary assessment for the
various lots and parcels of land ; that
would be included in the district! and
that a meeting be called of all the prop
erty owners affected. In order that their
sentiment may be obtained. V
. The engineer recommends a system
Of drains constructed In Thirty-second
street, carried on down to the old natu
ral ground - in such a . manner as to
catch the surface water as well as any
underground spring water; "connection
f the Thurman street sewer with the
Halch , creek sewer on Thirtieth street,
so that this would provide a means of
discharge of these surplus waters.
Construction of a new sewer on
Vaughn street for further drainage out
let, for the district is also recommended,
to which all the drainage south of
Thurman street could be connected.
Uratns could then 1 be constructed on
Franklin street, between Aspln and
Houston streets, and on Savier street
between Aspln and Auburn streets. He
also recommends the reconstruction of
a culvert under Raleigh street.

declared Premier Briand in his speech.
"France is - ready) to act on May 1,"
conthiued the premier 1 amidst cheers
from the deputies.
Another great burst of applause greeted
the premier when he referred to Pre

unacceptable.

guarantee of Germany's good faith on
the matter of reparations, continued
M- Briand. j" '
"France and Great Britain were in
full, accord to the, Hy the conference. I
am fully confident that the United
States only will take the initiative in
transmitting the new German pro
posals.' ;- :' (
The premier added:
"We can no longer accept Germany's
word. We must have acts. The Ger
man guarantee was addressed to the
United States because Germany knew
we had good I reasons to doubt her
faith." I '
After recalling that Germany had
failed to disarm and try her war crimi
nals, the premier declared :
"Unless guarantees are given that this
will be done, and unless payment is
made by Saturday of the one billion
gold marks that were due March 23,
France will act"
