C Johnson Corvallis. recently elected four-eountv cantonment coordinator, addressed the local cham ber of commerce Tuesday night. Nine cities are now included irr the cantonment set-up, he stated, and they, are Monmouth, Corvallis, Albany, Independence, Dallas, Salem, West Salem, Leb anon and Sweet Home. . Monnwuth and Independence, it was stated,, have new com plied with federal boosing reg ulations and will furnish trans portation to the. cantonment for workers at a maxtmunt east of 41 cents per round trip, so they are included In the national de- ' tense area. - . While no federal moneys are now available for road improve ment between Independence and the cantonment, via the south route, or the Grainger road which leads from Independence south passing over the Reynolds' hill,' it is believed the state highway commission may allocate some funds for widening and otherwise improving this road, and a later reimbursement may be expected from government sources. High rentals were discussed by Johnson. He stated that at Med ford 75 to SO per cent of the em ployed men have families, so the probability is that small houses or apartments will be much more in demand than beard and room Excessive rentals will ndt in crease .the popularity, of any com munity with cantonment work ers, Johnson stated, and the city which puts the most into offering adequate, comfortable and "reas onably priced housing accommo dations will obviously be the city which" reaps the most from ren- tal patronage. The use of traileY camps and auto trailer houses is not being encouraged because of the probable social problems in volved. A large percentage of the workers employed come from lo cal areas and represent a class of workmen far above the average in citizenship qualifications. It was observed at the Med ford cantonment, Johnson said, that schools located farthest away from the scene of actual employ mem naa me larger increase in enrollment. A USO building for Mon mouth will probably not be realized, it was revealed this week. Local sentiment, how ever, favors introduction of more local commercial enter prises as a meaning of provid ing recreation for the soldiers who- will be quartered at the cantonment A report at the business ses sion stated that assurance of more than $200 per month from local subscriptions has been aggregated to defray expenses of the housing office here. MONMOUTH Mayor F. R. Bowersox announces retirement of $8500 ba municipal bonded Indebtedness since last October and expectation that $6000 more will be retired within the coming six months. A city budget for the next 12 months includes reduction of $452.50 from the amount of the 1941 levy. The January to July levy for 1942 being $180.63 above 50 per cent of the 1941 total, the actual cost of business operation is $271.87 less than that of 1941.
