Conferences witb heads of the

Senator Charles L. McNary witb
a view to bringing about an in-'
vestigatlon of the inadequate mail
service between, Salem and Port
land, and between . this city and

cent letter from the Salem cham
ber of commerce. In a reply by
wire Saturday, the senator states
personally witb tne postoirice au
thorities, and expects they will
make an immediate investigation
and seasonably suggest a remedy.
: Complaints against the slowness
of mail service here were brought
td public attention recently in a
Statesman editorial and in other
ways. Blame has been placed on
the substitution of busses for
some of the passenger trains pre
viously operated, the busses not
being authorized in the majority
of cases to carry the mail previ
ously handled on the trains
ai present, it orten requires Z4

Rising Strength of Indepen

Chagrin, Indicated
Dominating Faction Expects
To be Tolerant in City
Council Affairs
By RALPH CURTIS
All's quiet along the eastern
front in city politics, even though
the western front is reported to
be boiling over with chagrin and
righteous indignation.
Alderman L. J. Simeral's remov
al from the ward he has repre
sented, which automatically term
inates his membership in the
council, raises a number of ques
tions as to the future course of
events, but the closely knit group
of "independents" who have suf
ficient. Toting strength to name
his successor, were not disposed
Saturday to be loquacious as to
their plans.
The fact appears to be . that
nothing, has been decided, for sev
eral members of this group have
been out of town since it became
known that Mr. Simeral's seat was
officially vacant.
So any citizen who lives in the
areo bounded by the Willamette
river, 12th street. Market streets
on the north, Union from the river
to High and Center from High to
12th on the south, may expect to
be waited upon by a delegation
offering, him a place among the
mighty.
Of greater interest than the
matter of filling this vacancy,
however, is the fate of the reso
lution which the' independents in
troduced at tbe last meeting, de
priving the mayor of tbe power
of committee appointments and
placing that power In the hands
of a committee on committees.
With a voting strength of nine
to four, there seems to be nothing
in the way of passing this resolu
tion, which requires a two-thirds
vote of the aldermen present, at
Monday night's meeting, but at
latest report, the independents
hadn't decided whether to call the
Instrument from the table Monday
night or to let it He there a while
longer.
Members of his group have em
phasized at all times their in ten
tion solely to bring about a "fair
shake" in the matter of commit'
tee assignments, and to prevent
the mayor from holding this
power over their heads in order to
influence their votes on election
of city officers and other matters.
The five friends of the mayor
who have been on the council
since the first of this year held
chairmanships on the following
committees: accounts and current
expenses, bridges, fire and water,
ordinances, incinerator, revision
of minutes, rules, streets, ways
and means. On each of these nine
committees, excepting ways and
means, the mayor has had a ma
jority. The nine independents have had
chairmanships of only eight com
mittees, most of them relatively
unimportant; band, health and po
lice, licenses, lights, printing, pub
lie buildings, public parks and
sewers. ,
