Water Slowly Fills
West Salem Pipes
The world didn't look quite so dry to parched West Salem today
- - at least temporarily.
So far an could be learned late last night, there was to be water
for the baby's bath, the pail and tin cup could be put back in the
woodshed, and the piles of unavoidably dirty dishes would dwindle
- - as would the bucket-brigade lineup at the city hall tap.

A friend who was doing some
houaecleaning came on a copy of
the Salem Weekly Mercury for
April 4. 1873. This paper was
started as an organ for the demo
cratic party in 1869. This issue
carries the names of Wm. (Bud)
Thompson and J. W. Kelly as pub
lishers, both prominent figures in
Oregon journalism. (Judge Mc
MaJvan tells many atonies about
Bud Thompson). For a time the
Mercury was published as a daily
but it was unable JLaaurvivsuxary

Old papers are always interest

Mercury. The front page is de

The column-length lead editor

pferty which had Just returned to
power under Grant a second term.
Another one flayed that "sensa

Just occurred.

This was the picture:
(1) Shortly after noon Thurs
day, the Blue Lake cannery
(biggest single user of water)
closed at the request of city of
ficials. (2) The water pressure there
after gradually built up until a
resident of the Kingwood ' Heights
area at 3 p.m. said excitedly "we
actually can hear a trickle in
our pipes."
(3) Mayor Guy Newgent said
if people would refrain from
sprinkling the reservoirs should
gradually build up a new reserve
even with only three pumps op
erating. (4) City officials said a fourth
pump was expected today (it had
been expected yesterday) ' for in
stallation at the 7th and j Patter
son street diggings which cost
$6000 last spring and which it
was declared "certainly J is not
dry." (Some quarters still. insist
ed it was "almost dry") . ." I
And there the .matter . rested
(with the cannery tentatively J
scheduled to re-open today). ' T
Repercussions, however, were
varied. -"'
Newgent Under Fire - "
Irate citizens have personally
and via telephone literally read
the riot act regarding "improvi
dent planning." Some even Vo
cally indicated a desire to level
a haymaker at "Mayor Newgent.
The mayor in turn Indicated a
belief the city had done every
thing feasible, and that . while
there were reasons for the
drought they were not of the s3nd
which necessitated the making
excuses. - ' .. : r - -
Among such reasons he cited
that there were eight houses- on
one hill when a small reservoir
was built and" that mort than
100 bouses now are served from
it He also mentioned, unforeseen
delay - in obtaining equipment.
AnoV too. he said but very 'few
residents inside the city limits
had been water-less.
Serve Ositslde Areas
"The city of West Salem does
n't own an inch of water line
outside the city .limits. But we
serve some outside areas with
water. It would be better If they
would form districts to obtain
their own supply," he eugesrLed
But there was a definite lack
of agreement on the part of peo
ple who called both the West Sa
lem city hall and The Statesman
But most "were nice," officials
said.
"We built here years ago and
we had water. We've had such
trouble before. We want water
now." That was the gist of many
statements. Some criticized the
city for permitting such a rapid
residential and industrial growth
reolu-,rwithout augmenting water sup
piles more rapiaiy
As far as the fire hazard is
concerned, city officials declared
a 4-mill tax kept in full force an
agreement with the city of Salem
to provide protection, and that by
cloying a valve all water could
be diverted to any hydrant which
might be in use in a fire emerg
ency
Anyway, if the West Salem wa
ter picture continues to look
cheerier, there should be a lot
of overdue washings on the line
today.
Where Were
The Airplanes?
The expected "invasion fleet"
of army war planes failed to ma
terialize over the city yesterday.
Portland reported that only four
B-29s turned up out of the 50
fighters, bombers and troop
planes originally expected In the
display. No reason for the change
was given. No local demonstra
tion of army air force day oc
curred in Salem. Advance infor
mation on the scheduled flight
had been given out locally
through press releases from
headquarters of the 15th Air
Force.
Play at Paris
Yugoslavia
Flatly Rejects
Trieste Plan
PARIS, Aug. 1 -CffV Yugoslavia
bluntly announced today she
could not accept the big foui
compromise solution on Trieste,
and the Netherlands warned the
peace conference delegates thst
the small nations are opposed to
the great powers imposing their
will on others.
In bitter attack on the Trieste
decision, Yugoslav Vice Premier
and Chief Delegate Edward Kar
delj declared his country would
reject the solution because "it
abandons large sections of our
people, to the oppression of Italy.'
The-expected explosion on Tri
este came after Soviet Foreign
Minister V. M. Molotov amended
a Greek motion in the rules com
mi t tee to open the conference to
"any peace question." The com
mittee adopted Molotov's amend
ment that any: delegation could
raise any question "pertaining to
the draft treaties."
The Yugoslavs have bitterly
opposed the Trieste decision since
the four power, foreign ministers
council accepted the French plan
to place the disputed port under
international - control.
No Injuries in
Head-On Crash
Two sedans collided head-on at
12th and Mission streets about
10:20 o'clock last night, but no
one was injured, although one of
the cars grazed a stopped taxicab
and plunged, off the street into
a vacant lot at the" northwest
corner of the intersection.
Police who investigated said
Harold L. Leith, route 2,- box 229,
driver of -the car" which: left the
road, apparently had not stayed
in his lane while .rounding a
slight bend as he travelled north
en 12th street through the inter
secDon. rne omer driver was
identified as T. R. Green, 904 S.
20th at. Front ends of both cars
were .damaged. Neither driver
was cited by police.
The taxicab, driyen by James
F. Snook, route 4, had stopped
when the accident occurred and
received only a damaged bumper,
police said.

time in a civil aeronautics board
ruling today which also opens up
the "northwest passage" to the

since not all affected countries
have yet granted landing rights.

Vets Say
Bad Shells
Traceable
By Alex II, Singleton
WASHINGTON, Aug. l.-UPl-
combat veterans told the senate
war investigating committee to
day that the defective mortar
shells which killed their buddies
can be traced to the manufacturer
and told how.
One who served in Italy wrote
that his 100th chemical mortar
battalion "had quite a bit of de
fective 4.2-inch ammunition" and
that he has its lot-numbers. An
ex-corporal of the 65th chemical
company in Belgium reported that
he kept records on "a disgraceful
number of defective fuses."
And another soldier wrote that
"army regulations require that
ammunition be stored and issued
by lot-number; that a report, giv
ing lot-number, be made of all
accidents involving defective am
munition and the faulty round be
impounded.
"From . this Information." he
added, "it should not be difficult
to find out who manufactured the
rounds which caused muzzle
bursts."
This correspondent also report
ed that an entire gun crew was
killed or wounded by a defective
mortar shell in tests at Fort Bragg,
N. C in 1943 and that "a full
report was made by the field ar
tillery board and copies will be
found in its files."
Gas Price to

In southern Oregon and on the
coast Standard stations Increased

raise was necessary to cover
higher freight rates.
me price niae in general was
attributed to higher production
costs in the oil industry. Price
also went up on solvents and
kerosene.
Truman Vetoes
Tidelands Bill
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1 -7P)-
President Truman vetoed the so-
called "Udelands oil bill" today,
declaring that the question wheth
er the nation or the states own
the lands in question should be de
cided by the supreme court, not
by congress.
The bill would have renounced
any federal claim to certain on
rich lands, principally lands be
tween the low tide mark and the
three-mile limit.
"If the United States owns these
areas, they should not be given
away. If the supreme court decides
that the United States has no title
to or interest in the lands, a quit
claim from the congress is unnec
essary." A house postponement delayed
any vote on overriding the veto
until tomorrow.
Flights Okehed
other important points, including
Calcutta where It will connect
with its own trans-Atlantic routes
and complete one globe encircle
ment. Transcontinental St Western
Air had its route through Europe
extended from Bombay to Shang
hai where it will be possible to
connect with both Northwest ami
Pan American for a second globe
girdling routh.
Northwest announced immed
iately that it ia ready to begin
thrice-weekly service and that
daily flights are in prospect by
early 1947 when more equipment
will be available.
India is the notable gap in the
chain of landing rights, and until
the state department can get an
agreement there it will not be
possible to link the east and west
bound lines from the United
States.
