V j: v II The "Stat mem.- Salemv Oregon1 Thtgsd&y A Funds Needed For Silverton Gty Services SILVERTON. April 6. Silver ton business houses may band to gether to raise sufficient funds to retain the local police force in tact until the end of the fiscal year. If money cannot be raised through-vsome outside means, the force win have to be cut to three men, Victor Grossnickle, chief, has been told by the city council. This past year there have been four regular police and one extra, the latter working a little more than four days a week. Funds budgeted for the police are being rapidly exhausted. There is now only sufficient left to pay three full time men until July 1, the end of the fiscal year. City Man ager Robert Borlund reports. The council members admit the town Is better policed than it has ever been. Trouble has been min imum, but. they added, -when there is no money It simply can not be paid out." Wesley Grogan, who appeared at the Monday night council in Interest of retaining the police force as It is, said that should it be reduced he would have to hire additional help to run his restau rant He felt other business men would be of the same opinion and might agree to make an effort to raise at least a portion of the $600 needed for the next three months. C A. Hande, Silverton fire chief also said he felt hampered by lack of city funds. He had hoped, he said, that the fire department could borrow from the water de partment enough to purchase the new truck which the citizens vot ed at the March election. But the funds in the water department are being exhausted by needed repairs. Enrol Ross, Reber Allen and George Christenson, councilmen, have been asked to work with Fire Chief Hande in an effort to obtain funds so that the fire equip ment can be purchased before the summer season. 4-H Rabbit Breeders To Discuss Problems LYONS At a 4-H club lead ers' meeting with Mr. and Mrs. Paul Johnston, plans were made for the 4-rt clubs to furnish the program at the PTA meeting Fri day evening, April 8.
