Saturday Morning, April 17, 1943 Scio Council Studies Jail Repairs Are Planned; Cyrus9 Resignation Being Considered SCIO Inspection of the Scio jail built on or before 1890, ac cording to old-timers, was made by Mayor Withers and several councilmen this week, with a view to repairing the building for use. This action foUowed receipt of a recent letter from Orval Etter, legal' consultant of the Lea gue of Oregon Cities, In reply to a request of the local municipal board for advice in the matter. By enactment of the state legis lature, rigid regulations relative to Jail structures were passed, applying to jails built after 1905. No difficulty is anticipated by the council in showing that the present building In Scio was erec ted long before 1905. This angle disposed of the problem will be devising ways and means for re pair funds, estimated at $250 to $300. Discussion in detail at a spec ial council meeting this week concluded with instruction to the committee on streets and public property to make thor ough investigation and report to the council. This committee is composed of R. B. Haines, W. H. Dennison and GaU Jones. The next meeting of the coun cil Is scheduled for May 3. Those attending the special meeting Tuesday night were Mayor With ers and Councilmen R. M. Cain, W. H. Dennison, Guy Funk, R. B. Haines and Gail Jones; absent, Keith Miller. Possibility of providing a Jail at Scio in the near future may simplify to some extent the mat ter of securing a marshal to succeed C. M. Cyrus, incum bent, whose resignation is to take effect In May. Mayor With ers this week appointed a coun cil committee consisting of W. H. Dennison, R. B. Haines and GaU Jones to investigate the matter of Cyrus' successor. . Cyrus' resignation as marshal was based upon the assigned rea son that he has not sufficient time to devote to the office, which was consolidated some time ago with city water superintendent. The two positions pay only $35 per month, and it is reported not an easy matter to secure a per son who is willing to do the work acceptably at such salary. Various plans have been dis cussed recently by the city council looking to adequate pay for a marshal and water superinten dent as it was patent that the present salary will not attract and retain a suitable man for the place. Increase in fees for dances, liquor licenses, road shows, theatres, ete has been con sidered at times. Regular con tributions : of business houses toward the marshal's salary al so have been discussed as a means of providing suitable salary. Receipts from fines to be col lected on infractions of city or dinances would, augment a fund for an officer's salary, it was pointed out this week. : Result of the authorized . committee canvass of the situation is ex pected to ; clarify the problem to some extent. Hammers to Plant 33 Acres Potatoes LINCOLN Roy W. Hammer is planting 33 acres of river bottom soU in potatoes, starting in a few days.

Hammer has it ready to start the work, with the assistance, of his brother, Herman Hammer. The wives of the two men will cut the seed patoes in readiness for planting. This works two ways, as the Soy Hammers plan to assist the Herman Hammers with their potato planting.

Rotary club meeting Pat McLaughlin and Tony Halter were chosen Woodburn represent tatives to the district convention of Rotary International, to be held at Victoria, BC. Among the guests at the meeting wera Second Li Ken Arney and the two .guest speakers, Second Li. Bob Rehn of the air corps and Lt Cmdr. Allen Miller! of the Seabees, all former Woodburn residents. I Lt Renn assured the club that women were turning out just as perfect planes as men do. As he was stationed for a time with a bombardment group which had active combat and in which Colin Kelly was a pilot, he also had interesting information to impart about his activities. He said that Oregon was the best state in the Union and that he was glad to get back. j Miller, a 1924 graduate of Wood burn high school, told of his ex periences since he left Woodburn. But more important was his con veying the feeling to the club members of a fighter who has actually engaged in combat. Al though a Seabee, he accompanied a marine detachment of men and officers as an observer on one of the first Guadalcanal attaches. His sssignment to report on . air, fieldl possibilities was never com pleted because his superior offi cers were killed on wounded, leaving Miller in command. He was wounded four times before the relief came- at the end of 24 hours. He said that fighting is no fun and that when shipyard strikes are reported to soldiers it is de moralizing. He spoke bitterly of the Japs. I Suffer Colds LABISH CENTER Several persons in the community were sick with colds and the flu this week.

If 25 per cent of the- property holders in the entire proposed district sign these peti tions, the hearing will be held. Then -If there is not more than a 25 per cent objection of the property holders, at the hearing. the district will be formed. Theodore Hobart, temporary chairman of the proposed district. called the meeting to order. The purpose of the meeting was to hear the report of the previously selected committee chosen to make investigations. T. T. Leonard, chairman of that committee, made the report The committee he said, had investigated the Mt Angel, the St Paul and the Brooks dis tricts, all recently formed. ; Mr. Leonard reported that the com mittee thought some form of rural fire protection should be estab lished and that the cost would be returned in reduced fire in surances. Three methods were suggested. The one method provided that the district own the equipment store It in the , city and that - a contract be entered with the city for rural protection; the second method provided that the city purchase equipment and that the district simply enter into con tract for protection, and the third method provides that the district both own and house the equip ment Mr. Leonard said that the contract with the city owning the equipment . would probably cost in the neighborhood of one mill until, the equipment was paid for, St Paul levied a three mill tax to purchase the equipment Mr. Leonard said. From three to four mills would cover the equipment should the Silverton district de cide to purchase its own, he said f-This tax would probably be low ered after the equipment was paid for. E. A. Taylor, chief deputy from the state fire marshall's office, was present and explained that the actual method would be de cided upon later when the rural district was formed and directors elected. J.
