Helen Ng Mun Tayne, Wo men's Army Corps, daughter of Mrs. Dora J. Sing of 944 N. Com mercial, has written her mother of her recent arrival in Manila, Phil ippine islands. She-writes, "Here we are in the Philippines. We left Hollandia, Dutch New Guinea early one morning, made several stops for 'refueling and spent one night at Leyte, arriving here about mid-morning the day after we left New Guinea. This was once a mag nificent city, with very modern buildings and beautiful , boule vards. , Everything breathed of freedomfreedom of space, free dom of thought, freedom of cul ture and creed. Now, the physical aspect Is one of complete destruc tion. Having experienced tragedy and want, for so long the people here have taken a fatalistic phil osophy towards life, but doubtless ; will soon return to their former easy going ways. "The many schools will be re built, and the boulevards, botan nical gardens, parks and quays will be restored to a beauty equal . to that before the Japanese came. The ruins ; which were once the latest in modern architecture, will be reconstructed and the city re Stored to its former beauty.. "We are comparatively close to the front but conditions are under control here. .Armed guards and military police are constantly on patrol through the city.. For the present, we are billeted in the ruins of what was once a Jesuit college. It is quite a large build ing with several wings. i Because of security regulations Private First Class Ng Mun Tayne could not disclose the nature of her work, but she could say that it was with a headquarters unit set up in Manila. The Salem WAC was employed as a stenographer in the state department of agricul ture prior to her enlistment in the . women's army corps in 1942. - 'A.

H. McMa- a n -Fr o n t street industries squabble, it will advise the judge that he resides in an Industrial zone and must e x p e c t to hear noise night and day, but it will also: .. . . . ... Obtain an agreement with .Hunt Bros which Will provide that the food pacicing concern shall remove garages built across a street when ever the council orders it to. ' Order removal of all "no park-. Ing signs at platforms of both, the cannery and Terminal Ice & Cold Storage, Co. and require that any leading zones there be granted by the council as they are, in other parts of the 'city. Y Require police to see that Front street is kept open to traffic. f Report to Be Considered The committee's report, present ed last night to the council, will be considered two weeks hence after each alderman has received a copy. Although the council refused to accept a report approving the granting of a franchise to Salem Electric cooperative to operate in the area where it now has custom ers, a new ordinance embracing the report's recommendations was read for first and second times. It replaces an earlier ordinance in troduced several weeks ago. Another ordinance replacing one already in the hopper was intro duced at request of the planning and zoning commission. It would amend the zoning ordinance to provide that owners of property involved in any proposed change of zone be given written notice. : Railroads Warned No argument arose over a pro posal to send another letter 'to Southern Pacific and Oregon Elec tric railroads as a reminder that in February, 1944, the council or dered tracks on Front street brought up to grade. The council voted unanimously in favor. Principal argument centered about the breaking of the Lone Oak village sewer contract (page one story), but when the actual question came to vote only Alder man Lloyd Rigdon opposed imme diate change in the system.
