PENSION ST STEM TO PEOPLE
The city council today adopted the,
resolution .submitting to the voters at'
the election November 7 an amend
ment to the cUy charter providing for
a retirement pension system for of
ficers and employe of the city of Port
land, except those of the police and
fir departments, which have their
own penalqi systems.' 3
Under provisions of this amendment
the division of burden in sustaining
the proposed system would be about
equal between the city as a whole and
the employes. The employes would pay
into the' pension fund about AVt -per
cent of their salaries, while the tax
levy, at its maximum rate, would be
16 per cent of the. municipal payroll
approximately $300,000 a year, based
pn a payroll of xa.onu.oow. t ne actu
ary's study, however, shows that under
present conditions the levy would b
only about t per. cent,. It was stated by
proponents of the measure.
PKOPOSEB VACATION OF PART
OF 1ITH STREET IS OPPOSEI
Proposed vacation of 30 feet of 13th
street, between .the south Hne of .Halt
street .and the north line of College
street, asked for fey L. W. Herman and
Dr. Skiff, ran up against stiff opposi
tion before the city council today. A
remonstrance was presented, said to
represent 85 per,, cent of the- property
within the immediate district, although
various signers on the remonstrance
had appeared on the petition favoring
Jhe vacation. The matter was set for
a public hearing October it ana mean
while referred to the city attorney and
Commissioner Barbur. ' j
Proponents of the vacation declared
that the property has passed Into sev.
eral ownerships In the past few years,
but that In each case the owners have
found that the cost, of improving it
under present conditions Is excessive,
whereas If the 30-foot strip Is vacated
It could be improved at reasonable
cost. They argue .that Its improve
ment would be of general benefit to
the neighborhood and' street 50 feet
wide would remain.
