2 Warehouse
Projects Ready
At Salem Sites
Permits to build two ware
houses in Salem at a total cost
of $23,218 were issued Friday by
the city engineers office.
Ivan Stewart owner of Ivan
Stewart and Company, 308 S,
High st., received authorization
to build a $14,000 warehouse at
his present business site. Con
struct ion will get under way in
the early spring after part of the
present building is torn down.
Wrecking operations are expect
ed to start as soon as weather
permits, Stewart said Friday. The
warehouse will be of cement con
struction.
The secretary of state's office
of Oregon was granted permis
sion to erect a combination ware
house and garage at 1210 Ferry
st., beside the state beating plant,
at a cost of $9,218. The project
was approved by the board of
control at its Thursday meeting.
Fred Patzer, Salem contractor,
is in charge of construction which
will start as soon as materials
are here. The building will be
of cement construction and will
be used to house state cars and
materials used by the secretary
of states office.
Chris Mad sen, Salem house
wrecker, was granted a permit
to start wrecking operations on
the Claudius Thayer residence at
255 N. Capitol to make way for
the new state office building. The
old mansion was occupied recent
ly by the late Secretary of State
Robert S. FarrelL Jr.
Other permits issued Friday
went to Oscar Bjornson to alter
a house and garage at 1807 Broad
way st, $500; and to Mrs. Bessie
C. Smith to reroof a residence at
245 E. Lincoln st., $298.
Recorder Lanke
Says Try for Job
As Clerk Unlikely
' The suggested candidacy of
Marion County Recorder Herman
Lanke for the position of County
clerk is highly improbable, Lanke
said Friday. He is not required
to stand for election in his own
office this year.
The statement was prompted by
talk of the possibility that the
legislature might merge the
clerk's and recorder's offices as
they are in some counties.
Lanke deplored such a move i
"11 right 25 years ago, but not
now." Because of increased duties,
the offices should be separated in
all western Oregon counties, Lanke
added. At present only three Ore
gon counties, Marion. Linn and
Umatilla, have separate recorder
and clerk positions.

management; C. L. RawUngs, ex

ject was plant growth, and Robert

discussed berry pests.
Willamette valley soils are short
in nitrogen because the heavy
rains wash fertilizers out of the
soil. Dr. Stephenson said as he
suggested cover crops, additional
humus added to the soil and com
mercial fertilizers as soil correc
tive measures. Dr. Vaughn spoke
of the serious condition of foli
age rust In recent years and re
commended spraying with lime
sulphur hist before buds opened,
cautioning against using too strong
a solution as this would burn the
buds.

County Plans to Remove
Bridge Near Clear Lake
Decision to eliminate a bridge
on county road 604, northwest of
Clear Lake, which was washed
out in the winter's high water,
was reached Friday following in
spection of the site by Marion
County Engineer Hedda Swart
Road Foreman Frank Woe Ike and
Bridge Foreman Ted Kuenzi.
Swart said the little-used road
would be constructed to follow the
land contour, rather than replac
ing the bridge, since water would
cover it only during floods.
SP Challenges
Silverton Flax
Firm Complaint
Claim that the Southern Paci
fic company was acting within
the law and that it "could not
lawfully refuse to accept" ship
ments of flax fibre and tow from
the Oregon state flax Industry
was made by the company Fri
day in an answer filed in Marion
county circuit court to a suit
brought by Charles H. and T. T.
Leonard of the Silverton Flax
company.
The Leonards sued to bar the
state from the flax industry, in
which convict labor is used, and
to bar the products from inter
state commerce.
The company's answer admits
giving interstate transportation, to
shipments tendered to it by the
state flax industry, but denies
that it uses funds of the state or
convict labor and that it has vio
lated the law or damaged the
plaintiffs irreparably. It denies
collusion between It and any of
the other defendants, which in
clude the state board of control
and Union Pacific railroad.
The answer alleges that it in
vestigated representations by the
plaintiffs and has determined on
the basis of an opinion by the
U. S. attorney general that It
"could not lawfully refuse to ac
cept said shipments." It further
allege that this court has. no

As property owners, we are entitled to know before we vote t!
Tuesday 'a election that if the $3,500,000 bond issue being aLed for hy
the School Board carriei, our property taxei will bt increased by approxi
mately 23.
That Is one of the Important truth's all of ui must keep In mind
when we go to the polls. Also remember that onlj property owners ar
eligible to vote on this important issue. ,
We are not questioning the School Board's right; to funds that ard
needed for the operation of the school program; as citizens and parents,
we want our schools maintained at the highest possible level of effici
ency and under proper housing conditions. But we do not want to should
der property . owners with the unnecessary burden the full $3,500,000
bond issue would create by increased taxation, impairment of our credit
standing and the probable loss of additional business enterprises we now
hope to attract into this area.
An itemized report of the School Board's requirements for the pres
ent time discloses that -the $3,500,000 bond iftsue you are being asked
to authorize by your vote, is $2,000,000 more than is presently necessary.
The plain truth Is that such over-financing fs contrary to the princi
ples of sound business management. The operation of our school pro
gram is an important business and we want to see it properly financed.
That can be done if you vote against the proposal at Tuesday's election
and vote for a more reasonable amount later.
