' Salem volert' Friday approved
the merger of Salem and West
Salem. The vote was light, but
the majority in lavor of consoli
dation was ampler Th lightness
of the vote wa -sin that the
people generally approved of the
merger. Had sentiment been di
vided a much larger vote would
have. been recorded. -Since the
voters of West Salem expressed
their approval of the move last
July, Friday action was final. Now

of the vote by the city council and
then going through the legal for
malities to incorporate West Sa

the city administrations.
This consolidation means a lar

rrow in all directions. It makes
WmI Salem an integral part of
the capital of. the state and the
second city in size in Oregon. It
Is much safer now to predict a
Iread count of 50,000 when the
1950 census is taken, which really
will put our city up in the urban
class.
While we can tuckr our thumbs
in our annholes and stick out our
collective chest, such self-pride is
not for long. With a larger city
come larger problems, greater re
sponsibilities. Our mayor and city
council and the city manager will

them. After combining adminis

obviously the most pressing prob

fense request to free the defen
dants on bail of $5,000.
The judge ordered all 11 jailed

ed Itwould start a movement to'

negotiations. A strike I is set for
12:01 A.M. (E.S.T. Monday.
The strike will affect! 20,000 Al
coa workers in nine plants in nine
states.
The steelworkers; sought an un
disclosed wage increase, and a company-paid
pension j and insurance
program. The pension; and insur
ance demand was similar to the
one which has closed; down the
nation's steel industry.'
M. M. Anderson, Alcoa vice
president-taHcharge of industrial
relations, said the! union "flatly
rejected the principle that private
pension plans should 'be affected
by future changes in social secur
ity laws."
The company said It proposed
a plan increasing existing pension
benefits for employes to six cents
an hour and insurance benefits to
four cents an hour. That is in line
with the recommendations of the
president's steel! fact finding
board.
The union, Alcoa said, turned
down a company proposal that the
pension plan be subject to adjust

changes in social security laws.

Wave of Counterfeit $10 Bills
Reaches Salem, Store Reports
Salem was added to the list
of northwest cities on the re
ceiving end of counterfeit $10
bills Friday when one business
house reported taking one of the
bogus tens.
A flood of the phony bills have
been passed in Portland and Seat
tle with Portland on the receiv
ing end of 57 of them. Police and
banking officials in Salem said
Friday that the "ten" passed here
was one of the, most clever coun
terfeits ever seen.
The bill, with the serial num
ber 16775911JE, shows only minor
differences from genuine $10
bills and takes close scrutiny to
determine. The flagpole atop the
treasury building picture on one
side of the bill is loot quit at

Assistant Superintendent John
S. Griffith said the boys began
grabbing girls and kissing them
as they left the building part
of a pre-initiation order.
: When the European girl,
stranger to the customs, shied
away, someone shouted "knock
her down." Griffith said some
of the boys formed a fraternity
ring around her, while others
tore off part of her clothing and
called obscenities.
The boys were called on the
carpet and school officials said
the ringleaders probably would
be expelled. Their parents were
being given a detailed report.
Griffith declared that Port
land's , secret society problem is
probably "worse than that of any
other coast city."
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,
W, Va., Oct. 14-;P)-John L. Lewis
made a spectacular bid today for
labor unity, offering to contribute
to a proposed $2r500,000-a-week
pool to help the striking CIO steel
workers win a "vital economic
conflict.'
The unpredictable Lewis thus
tossed a bombshell into the coal
and steel strikes by shelving for
the moment the idleness of his own
400,000 United Mine workers to go
to the aid of another union.
Lewis appealed to a union foe,
AFL President William Green, to
ask at least nine of his wealthiest
unions to match a contribution of
$250,000 weekly by the miners.
This financial credit, as Lewis
called it would enable the United
Steelworkers to win beyond pre-
adventure . . . the monumental
conflict which is now drawn," he
said.
In Washington, officials at AFL
headquarters were cool to Lewis'
proposal. One said:
"If the steel workers need any
help, they are certainly capable of
asking for it themselves.".

whether the lone bogus bill re

counterfeiters or whether it had
been brought in accidentally from
the Portland or Seattle areas.
City Detective Wayne Parker

SUff Writer. The Statesman
long, heated legal battle to
merge the cities of West Salem and
Salem was closed Friday when
Salem voters approved the mea
sure 726 to 307 in a special election
held within the city. Voters also
approved the addition of an eighth)
ward and councilman. y ;
But a bid to annex a sizeabiei
area lying southeast of Salem went

About two-thirds of the voters

proved the measure 685 to 292 but
the negative vote within the area
canceled the action.
Controversial Issue
The Salem-Wset Salem mercer
ended a movement which has seen
bitter controversy among West
Salem residents. Two state laws
were passed by the legislature to
allow the merger of the cities, each
lying in a separate county and sep
arated by the Willamette river;
The Kingwood district, completely
surrounding West Salem, was
merged with Salem at the general
election in 1948 and this paved the
way for the final action Friday,
Voters in West Salem approved the
merger at a special election July
26.
Only the legal technicalities of
certifying the vote remain before
the merger and companion char
ter amendment are official.
Tne charter amendment ap
proved 723 to 277, increases the
number of wards and aldermen to
eight. The present council will lo
cate the new ward and choose: a
temporary alderman to represent
it until the next regular election.
Revision of Ward Structure
The council indicated that Sa
lem's entire ward structure is du
for revision, as the heavy new pob
ulation on the fringes of the city
has resulted in wards of dispropor
tionate size. Ward 7 in south Sa
lem and ward 5 in North Salem are
about two or three times as popu
lous as downtown ward 3.
Salem Mayor Robert L. Elfstrom
greeted the favorable merger vote
with a welcome to West Salem
residents. Future development ;of
the area can now proceed in a
more orderly fashion, Elfstrom
said. s .
Mayor Walter Musgrave of West
Salem, one of the leading propo
nents of the merger, thanked tha
voters of Salem for paving the way
for a "greater Salem." (Completer
