Has Civic improvements in
Mind but Doesn't Seek
To Play Lone Hand
"I hare not made any elabor
ate p'ans as to what I shall da
but expect to meet the various
Js?ue as they demand atten
tion. Such was the -frtateroent
of Mayor Elect P. M. Gregory,
when questioned as to his pro
jrram for the tlmwbon ho would
be mayor of Salem.
Further quest'ors however,
revealed that Mr. Gregory was
not at all vague as to . what he
thinks should It brought about
but that he Is reticent about say
ing what he "will -de" slnee h
realizes that the - mayor aio-
can do but little it he lacks the
support of - the council and the
people. It was evident that Sa
lem's new mayor visions eonie
great improvements tor the city
witMn the nest few years but be
does .riot vision himself as the
prophet, who will lead the cboscu
ones into the promised land.
One of the things wh!ch Mr.
Gregory hopes for the future is
mountain water tot the city, fn
til then' what? For one thing he
is opposed to a condemnation
suit against the present water
company. It the elty and -the
company cannot come to an
agreement as to the price of the
system Mr. Gregory favors start
ing the construction of a water
system, laying new mains and
sinking wells. He added that
he would favor this procedure
if the city could do so legally.
Would Give Work
To Unemployed
This program wonld have the
added advantage of providing
employment for a large number
of men and Mr. Gregory believts
that the unemployment situation
in Salem during the coming win
ter will be critical.
The water company should
not simply be "frozen out"' Greg
ory believes but should be com
pensated for its equipment. "It
would be very bad business for
the city to ignore the water
company . entirely," - he said.
However, since the present mains
are inadequate and will soon have
to be replaced, he believes that
the construction program might
well begin soon and turn the
money that would otherwise be
used in legal proceedings into
ppying for the new construction.
Mr. Gregory trusts that in the
not far distant future the city
will po into the hydro-electric
business, following the example
of such places as Eugene, Seat
tle. Taconia and McMinnville. He
is convinced that this could be
done with profit to the city.
"If the five million dollar bond
issue had been passed by the
council and then by the people,
we would have had mountain
water." In Salem in two yars." ac
cording to Gregory. "I have no
bones to pick w-ith the PEP
company but I do believe that a
city the size of Salem should
owns Its own fcydro-eiectric
plant."
The bridge prosram is prac
tically, finished but the new
mayor would favor completing
any necessary work, for example,
the High street bridge should be
replaced if the money is avail
able. Mr. Gregory favors the stand
that various community clubs
have taken in asking for light
ing districts in Salem and would
work toward a ralization of this.
School Fiian-
Problem Viewed
"Our teachers are no better
paid than our street sweepers
and we expect of them a high
standard of living and educa
tion." said Mr. Gregory in refer
ring to the need foV raising sal
aries of, Salem's teachers. How
ever he added that under the
present financial situation it i
imnossible to raise teachers'
salaries.
School finances will need at
tention before Ion? because there
will be a need for new grade
l school buildings accoraing to
Gregory. : .
"Our chic center is a source
of pride and Justly so, bat the
state and the county aid mater
ially . in maintaining it. - We
need more attention to the small
parks in order that they may be
made adequate playgrounds and
recreational centers," he stated..
The handling of city finances
is a matter of just distribution.
believes Gregory.
"There is no use to make a
long statement "as to how I shall
practice economy," be laughed.
"Any official is sufficiently
limited as to the funds- at his
disposal tbar he need not worry
? bout bow much shall be spent
but rather how the nronej shall
be distributed."
The mayor elect is not spend
ing much time - planning Just
what he shall do in the future.
He docs not mean to take .long to
decide each issue and is Inclined
to " think "sufficient unto-, the
day." ' - ' .

160,000 Cattle, Including
Ail in Hood River
County Viewed
Oregon stands well out in the
front ranks among the states of
the nation in its efforts to elimin
ate contagious abortion from its
dairy, herds, according to Dr. W.
H. Lytle, state veterinarian. -During
the past Tear, Lytle
points ont, 60,86 cattle hare been
tested in the state and one Or -gon
county. Hood River, enjoys
the distinction-of being the only
county in the natior In which -1
dairy cattle have undergone this
test. Oregon has been divided Into
seven designated abortion control
areas in which the work; Is- being
carried on. '
'Cattle fret from abortion are
being eagerly sought by the Calif
ornia buyers and having a free dis
trict . will be an assurance that
the highest prices for dairy ani
mals and products will be receiv
ed," Dr. Lytle declares.
"It is expected that the legisla
ture will make a provision, similar
to that applyig to the tuberculin
test, whereby all of the cat.! in
a county may -be subjected to the
abortion test.
"This work could very well be
carried on in connection with the
tuberculin test work as the cattle
of the accredited tuberculin free
counties, which now' number sev
en with two more ready for accre
ditation, do not need to he test
ed oftener than once In two years."
Dr. Lytle points out that instead
of affecting adversely the number
cattle at the state fair this year
the compulsory abortion test re
quirement, put into operation for
the first time, seems to hava in
creased interest in the dairy ex
hibits with a greater number of
entries at this year's show than
formerly.
