STAND TO ALDERMEN
(CoHtfaaaa from iin it - 'i-
ing during the paat year. It has
been clearly demonstrated that
this enterprise can be conducted
byJthe city and made Felf-snpport-ing.
A ronsiderable amount of
Improvement work has been done
faring he past year, thus mak
ing the grounds more . attractive
ind 'serviceable for the campers,
(t Is expected that a community
house will be constructed ; early
this year which will contribute
fnuch to the proper entertainment
Of the tourists who yisit our city
nd which will abo afford an ex
cellent place for the display of the
Agricultural and ; other resources
f Salem and the Willamette val
ley. In addition to the construc
tion of s community house It . is
also hoped that the .Income from
the campground during the next
two years will be sufficient to per
mit of repayment of the amount
which the campground owes to the
general fund of the city.
City Manning Commission.
- "Another subject,, which I spe
cially commend to you for your
consideration is that of the crea
tion of a city planning commis
sion, the object of which will be
to develop plane for the regulation
of the future growth, development
and beautification of our city and
to establish zones or districts reg
ulating the construction and use
of buildings' within such- zones.
This Is a matter which is of vital
interest to every citiien, and f In
icy opinion is imperatively neces
sary to the proper growth and de
velopment of Salem. ' j ; ;: ; T
; b Xorth Seventeenth Street, f
"Another , important matter is
that of extending North Seven
teenth street to the etate fair
grounds, and if possible also es
tablish direct" connection with the
Silverton Road. North Seventeenth
street is tbe only street In the
eastern section of the city which,
if opened, , would extend entirely
through from the state fairgrounds
ti- the Turner Road, If North
Seventeenth street were opened it
would divert much of the traffic
which now congests Capitol etreet
during etate fair week. This -subject
Is worthy of your careful con
sideration. j. M'f'-;' .:M:'"
For RenamberluK Houses. u
"I wish again to call attention
to the need for the renumbering
of the houses' in our city.: Much
confusion is caused, not only to
strangers but to our own citizens
as well, on account of the hap
hazard numbering of houses. Much
inconvenience also results to the
po&toffice department and numer
ous complaints have been made by
the" city carriers. Tbis, too, should
be carefully studied and a plan
devised for correcting our present
defective numbering system, t
- "There Is nothing I so essential
to the growth and development or
a city as ita water supply and
water distributing system. -We
could render no greater service to
Slem than the accomplishment c-t
this one object., I believe that Sa
lem should have a municipally
owned -water system with an ade
quate supply, of pure mountain
water, and while i appreciating
thoroughly the magnitude of such
an undertaking, I fee! that we
should exert every possible effor.t
for the i accomplishment of this
most worthy enterprise.

j Active Streei epartuient.
"The street improvement de--
ptrtment has Just (closed the most
active year of Its! existence. Seven
ty-ight .blocks j of hard surface
pavement were constructed during
the past year at fa total cost of
$186,807.10, bringing i thte: Jotal
number of miles bf pavement with
in the city limits o approximate
ly 1 forty miles. This is a record
of which we may well be proud.
There are already! petitions filed
which call for a total of: 42 blocks
of pavement to be laid during tbe
present year, and (the indications
are that the present year will be
another record -yeiar for .this de4
partment. . This iis a most import
ant department i ojf our city and
nhould be maintained to the high
est degree of efficiency.
The etreet 1 (department is
charged with the dhty of maintain
ing and cleaning the street of our
city. The acquisition of the new
street flusher by this department
was an important fevent in its his
tory. Opon the arrival of the new
f iusher the obsolete j and ineffi
cient street sweeping equipment
was discarded and a modern and
sanitary method bf cleaning our
streets was subetitjuted in its place.
We now have thf equipment for
ket ping our stres clean and san
itary which will.f I am sure, be
appreciated by pli of our. citizens.
I alo wish again lo emphasize tbe
statement which i have heretofore
made that a moral obligation rests
upon this council to see that the
wn paved streets iq the outlying dis
tricts are maintained in a reason
ably passable cbnjditlon, for as tht

budget appropriation and - are to
be commended for the i capable
manner in which they carried on
the playground work. : We trust
that the playground i will ' be op

success during tbe present year."
"... "The members of our city park
board are also1 deserving of much

have rendered in connection with
