The work stoppage was gen eral in Oregon, Washington, and part of Idaho where the outside electrical workers are hired. Scarcities Slow Extensions of Citv Utilities (Council News also on Page 1) Only the continued scarcity of such materials as water pipe is slowing the extension of city fa cilities into areas annexed In the past two years. City Manager J. L. Franzen assured the city coun cil Monday night in Salem Cham ber of Commerce meeting rooms. Pipe for water mains in the east and north parts of Salem is in short supply, although long or dered, Franzen said, and lights for every street intersection in new areas have been on order almost a year. It will require several months to get the city sewer extension program under way, he added. The city council ordered Fran zen to study reports that heavy trucks are using residential area streets. Aldermen confirmed their ac tion last month in setting rentals aggregating (120 a month for leases of city waterfront property and moorage rights, after three companies near foot of Chemeke ta street protested the fees were too high and the city manage had submitted an alternate pro posal.

The regulations, established by State Agriculture Director EL L. Peterson, are designed to prevent diseased cattle from coming into Oregon from California drouth areas. They provide that certifi cates of good health must accom pany the cattle, or else they must be quarantined at the owner's ex pense for 30 days. "The provision for health cer tificates is no barrier to commerce of traffic in livestock that may lawfully enter the state," Neuner wrote. "It has the effect of stop ping diseased animals only and permitting others to enter without hindrance. "It is the duty of the state di rector of agriculture to take such measures as will prevent the spread of communicable diseases of livestock and. If necessary, to resort to rtstraint and isolation of diseased or suspect animals." Many thousands of cattle have come Into the state this year from the California drouth areas. Pet erson said he fears the animals might infect Oregon herds with many diseases, including the dread hoof and mouth disease which has spread over much of Mexico.
