Developmen
For Airport
To Be Delayed
Defeat of a Salem airport mill
are tax will postpone a planned
extension of the main runway and
installation of h i g hr intensity
lighting. City Manager,. J. I Fran
zen said Saturday. ;
-. The airport tax was' voted down
by Salem electors Friday, but five
. 'other - fund-raising measures for
cityJwprks were approved. . '
City Manager Franzen express
ed satisfaction thatpthe five Zap-:
fcircved, issues wiLget the adminis-
tration off to a "good start" on its
recently drafted 10-year plan for
city , development. . - ?" -Bonding
to Be Finished "
- He pointed but that defeat of the
adrport tax will not prevent comf
pletloroaf the first part of the city
airport administration building
this year. The building is now un
der construction. V .
The defeated tax (at 2.6 mills)
would have raised about $150,000
over two years, with . this ' local
money slated to be matched by
i federal airport funds.
, Defcatof the tax will lose to
Salem,1 at least for the time being,
a $90,000 ' federal : airport fund
- which had already been allocated
tentatively- for work at ; Salem,
provided the city put up its own
-snatching funds by this June 1.
Other Issues Approved
The civil 'aeronautics adminis-
tration periodically makes tenta
tive allocations, by cities, as it
prepares or, revises its budget.
'Approved by Salem voters were

pumper and aerial ladder truck

Mayor Elfstrom Pleased with
Approval of Financial Issues
? ' By Robert E. Gangware
City Editor, The Statesman
Mayor R. L. (Bob) Elfstrom broke into a big smile Saturday at
the inevitable question:
"What'd you think of city election results:"
He was downright pleased over the voters' approval for five of
six Salem financial measures. .
He was affable, but guarded,
city ballot.'
Now in his fourth year as Sa
lem mayor. Elfstrom had declined
rfo run for reelection and had made
no endorsement of city canaiaaies.
"There were three good men
running for mayor ' and one of
them had to lose out '.his time."
Elfstrom commented on the pri
mary result which puts Harry V.
Collins and Alfred W. Loucks into
a runoff election in November af
ter eliminating Walter Musgrave.
And the way' it looked to him
Saturday, the present mayor
wasn't about to endorse any candi
date in November, either.
"I'm no would-be kingmaker."
said Elfstrom.
In the only aldermen's contests.
two wards returned to the eitv-
council Thomas Armstrong and
Albert H. Gille who have been"
serving on the city council whid
Elfstrom heads as mayor.
On the subject af the financial
measures, Elfstrom interpreted the
vote as "public acceptance of our
city's long range plan."
The voters approved four bond
issues and a special tax, and re
Jected only a proposed airport im
provement tax.
"Fact that our voters singled. out
one issue to J oppose," reasoned
Elfstrom, "leads me to think they
really considered each of "the is
sues on its own merits.
"Especially since I feel, myself,
that the airport program was the
the Key . . .

McMINNVILLE, May 20 . ' A
hot controversy over parking in
downtown McMinnville was de
cided today.
A write-in candidate,' Dr. W. H.
Barendrick, defeated R. H, Windi
shar, McMinnville mayor, for 17
years, 1,015 to 555, and voters bal
loted 1,116 to 898 to defeat an or
dinance , proposed . by r Windishar
which would have banned park
ing along Baker street, a main
street. -
Elliott B, Cummings, jr., Mc
Minnville, and Carl "Francis, Day
ton attorney and state representa
tive for three terms, were nomi
nated by republicans as state rep
resentative. They polled 2,795 and
2,589 votes, respectively. Harry F.
Williams of Carlton received 2,162
votes. -' '
In the democratic race for the
house of representatives, Guy
Shumway of McMinnville, nly
name on the ballot, was chicked
1,377 times, out of about 2,760
democratic votes cast. While so
many flames were written in that
the tally had not been completed,
it appeared that' Dean Holmes,
Sheridan publisher, would be the
second democratic ' candidate for
the legislature.
- Going down to defeat by a nar
row margin was a proposed $7,-
500,000, bond issue to finance
county road construction and re
pairs. The vote was 4,055 to 3,9b4.
