i would lurm the new concern u
they could obtain the zone change.
The commission called a public
hearing on the issue for its next
regular meeting, March It, in city
hall.
Te Iadastrial Zee
The change would be from p res
eat class II (apartment) and
class III (business) zones to class
IV (industrial) for the block south
of Rural street and between 13th
and the Southern Pacific tracks,
across which a large industrial
zoned area already exists.: 1
Commissioners Indicated no
present objections to a suggested
class II apartment zone near Sa
lem General hospital and the pro
posed new doctors' clinic building
on Center street, when property
owners David Cameron and Mr.
and Mrs. Harvey DeGroff appear
ed to "sound out" the commission
before proceeding with petitions
to change the present residential
zone (class I). The change would
affect several lota between Jason
street and he hospital.
Street Naaset Suggested
The commission recommended
official city designation of McGll
Christ and Kumler streets for two
streets in recently annexed city
territory to the south, east of
Summer street Both streets gen
erally continue city streets of the
same names west of Summer
street.
Considering the "variance biB"
pending before the city council,
the zoning commission went on
record favoring an amendment to
the proposed procedure whereby
property owners in class I resi
dential zones might obtain city
sanction for new duplex apart
ments or alteration of existing
(non-conforming) apartments,
which under present zoning code
are prohibited. The commission
seeks to have an application for
such a variance come before its
prior to setting of public hearing
before the commission.

Mac Asks for
Break-up of
Japan Trusts'
WASHINGTON, Teb. 17 -VP)
Japan will see a blood bath of
revolutionary violence" if the oc
cupation fails to smash the eco
nomic power centered in a few
families, General MacArthur pre
dicts. The allied commander contends
that tearing down and redistribut
ing this economic concentration
is the first essential to setting up
a free enterprise system.
In a letter to Senator McMahon
(D-Conn) made public today, the
allied commander said:
The Japanese people fully un
derstand the nature of the forces
which have so ruthlessly exploited
them in the past. . . .
"The Japanese people have
tasted freedom under the Ameri
can concept and they will not
willingly return to the shackles
of an authoritarian government
and economy."
McMahon had advised MacAr
thur of criticism of economic pol
icies being enforced in Japan. Sen
ator Know-land (R -Calif) charged
that a government policy paper
sent to MacArthur for his guidance
was "communistic."
