sencji conditions, andf settlement of this
. question is vttal to the whole proposal.
; S The result -was that ths report of
i . ths sub-committee, which proposed un
J 3 United authority ta issue water bonds,
v was amended, although ta face of the
I protest of City Engineer Laorraard,
1 Fred M. vBandlett, chief engineer . oj.
: the water bureau, aad City Attorney
Grant, -who urzed that unforeseen si t
- ' uatlons might arise which would nftces
l aitate the speedy issuance of 'large
j... amounts of water bonds and-the llmita-
tions in the charter weald tie the hands
of the municipal government.
k '$A9GEK IS SCXTED
I I Randlett pointed out the possibility.
1f the destruction of the timber in
f the Bull Run watershed, ' necessitating
I 'acquirement of new areas for drainage
t andstorage purposes, and the uncer-
Itainties of congressional action, so -that
-some future congress might take away
'from Portland the use of the govern
i - itient reserve and throw it opeti to the
.SubHc
I City Attorney Grant declared that for
C several, years there has been a eon
i - slant agitation by private interests to
pen up the Bull Hun reserve and also
t to open roads throurh it. and thst "'no
' man can foretell what some session of
5 congress may do." Ha indicated that
y. if. the proposed restriction of bond ls-
f sues was to be adopted, his commit
tee would prefer the entire rejection of
i -its report ahd appointment of a new
f r eommittee to formulate the proposal.
-v Committeemen Kerr, Powers and
f fcnapp were strongly in favor of piae
vtng a limitation on the bond issues,
I but the argument of Randlett that lay
? ;ing of a third main ffora the head
i' works to Portland and creation of ad-
t aitional water storage space on the
Twest side of the Willamette river is
br 1 i
i:
vital, and that the proposed limitation
wou4 jrevept kft being "apeompiistied
for years, caused them to hedge;
A3IEJSDMEHT ADOPTED -
Finally the committee voted- by a
bare ma jority to adapt an amendment
to that section; of the report giving un
iimiiea oona-issuing powers so -finai
they would be- limited as follows S
Tha amount of "bonds ' which may be
Hwpednder - the 1 provisions -o this
section is hereby limited as follows:
Bef tsaay-boBda aheil - be laaued-Jaacca
joinder, an account shall be had of the
total amount' of water bonds then ut
standing and -from soeh -emount-tbere
shall be deducted the sum then in the
sinking fund applicable to th retire
ment of such water bonds and the dif
ference shall lie. held to be the net
water bond Indebtedness. An account
shall' be at the earn time taken ef
th total amount paid totd such sink

hereunder which with the net water
bond -indebtedness as ascertained shall

On this basis, the report is to be re
