The California Oregon Power
Company is applying for anf In
crease in electric rates.! Charles
Heltzel, public utilities I commis
sioner, has set Aug. 18th in Med
ford as the time and place forkhe
hearing on the application. Led
by the Rosebur? Chamber of
Commerce consumers in South
ern Oregon are getting ready to
resist the higher rates. iThey
will hold meeting today in Bed
ford to consider ways and means.
This indicates that utilities will
have to take into account mors
consumer resistance. Sometimes
such ressitance pays little atten
tion to facts and figures and is
based on hostility to the "oftu
pus" whether of electric -powef or
of telephone communications.
That doesnt show up in the Hse
burg instance where the Chamber
is not engaging in uulity-bajtlng.
There is a general feeling that
consumers do not have much! to
say in the fixing of rates. Thai is
not so. In the recently concluded

The council also agreed to try
a new plan, proposed by Police
Chief Clyde A. Warren, in pur
chasing, autos for the Salem po

A. report from the police chief
and City Manager J. L. Franzen
put the skids to a proposal by
Alderman- Thomas Armstrong
that a separate traffic division
be created in Salem police de
partment. Expanded Force
Such a division, said the report,
would mean the addition of 10

the force and to the city's already
straining budget Reports from
other cities in this area showed
they are either dropping their
traffic divisions i or their ideas of
starting them.
The council initiated, but
stressed it did not approve, a
plan to vacate a block of Gaines
Street, between North Cottage
and Winter Streets on the north
edge of Grant School blocf in
north Salem. The petition from
Salem Public School system calls
for a public hearing and consid
eration by the City Planning and
Zoning Commission.
Attorney Robert DeArmond
for the school board said the
school system has an option to
buy property abutting on the
north side of Gaines Street there
If the street is vacated and if
the property sales go through the
resultant expansion will be used
for playground area. "
Negotiation Okehed
Because Chief of Police War
ren told the council the, force's
"present equipment is giving us
lots of trouble." the council
voted to let City Manager Fran
zen "negotiate" with three local
auto dealers whose bids on five
new police cars , were opened
Monday night. ,
. Valley Motor Company was low
bidder with a total net price
(minus trade-in allowance) of
$5,182. Other bidders were Doug
las McKay Co., $5,291, and Stan
Baker Motors, $8,145.
Chief Warren .suggested the
city purchase cars from each of
the firms. . A year's driving, he
told the council, would show
which make was the most eco
nomical to operate. The council
agreed and directed Franzen to
talk it over with the dealers and
to report back.
Bridge Bid Taken
A low bid of $19,987 on the
new proposed Chemeketa Street
bridge over Mill Creek, sub
mitted by O. C. Bernardy, was
accepted by the council. Only
other bidder .was H. G. Carl,
$21,228.
An ordinance allowing R. O.
Lewis to build apartments just
north of State Street between
21st and 23rd streets, won ap
proval. Approval also was shown
to an application from Salem
Chamber of Commerce to erect
street signs in Salem hailing the
State Fair. - ' -
A report from Franzen that it
will cost $4,500 to erect a 10-foot
high fence around the Fairmount
Hill Reservoir was tabled. Re

next meeting Was a request for

and for a possible public hearing
was a report that it would cost

Because of last minute conflict

Report Claims
Large Saving
Savings of more than $600,000
in the biennium eliding June 30,
last, are claimed by Secretary of
State Earl T. Newbry in a report
issued Monday.
The report shows that while an
aggregate of $5,062,319 was au
thorized in the budgets of the
several divisions in the departt
ment for the two year period only
$4,457,835 was spent
A large part of the saving,
Newbry said, is accounted for by
his inability to employ competent
auditors at the salary scale au
thorized by the state legislature.
While he was authorized to em
ploy 55 auditors he was able to
hire only 32, he said. This result
ed in a saving of $166,734 in the
division of audits alone.
Other savings resulted from the
installation of labor saving de
vices, Newbry said.

mix the sperm of the mala oyster

they were in the- water, not trust

That's where the meat grinder
comes in. The fastest way was to
simply run Mr. and Mrs. Oyster
through a meat grinder, making a
raw oyster hash of the hippy couple
and, incidentally, mixing the
sperm and ova quickly and effici

Mercury Hits
93; Logging
Qperation Cut
. A hot east wind Monday
pushed the mercury up and the
humidity down and will probably
force logging operations to cease
through most of the state today.
Salem recorded a high of 93
Monday, one of the hottest days
of the summer.' Weathermen' in
dicated it might be a couple of
degrees warmer this afternoon.
Loggers in Oregon .except for
the coastal belt, are expected to
gel a holiday today as ' the
humidity drops under the critical
30 per cent mark. Forest areas,
favored by a wet summer, are
just now reaching the fire danger
condition.
One fire was brought under
control near Marion Forks Mon
day after burning over half, an
acre. Dropping humidity and the
east wind apparently fanned a
smouldering lightning-caused fire
into flame there. A 19-man sup
pression crew of forestry and
logging workers were sent to the
scene. .
Temperature readings about
the state Monday included: Med -
ford 97, The Dalles 94, Roseburg
92 and Portland 88.
Weathermen said Monday
there was nothing on the weather
map to bring relief from the sud-
den mercury rise. Fair and con -

Polio Claims
Stricken Girl;

Six-year-old Hyacinth Gerine
Bandy died of polio in Salem
Memorial Hospital Monday ; after
noon before- her two servicemen
uncles who have been like "fa
thers and brothers" . to . her
could reach the girl's bedside.
The Marion County Red Cross
Chapter is still trying to reach
the men both of whom are
overseas but late Monday night
Lno word had been; received in
Salem from them.
Hyacinth was stricken with
bulbar polio last Tuesday and has
been in a coma since Thursday.
While conscious she cried for her
uncles particularly ; Marine Pvt.
Janes Wiemals, 19, who is en
route to Hawaii aboard a trans
port. The child, taken sick suddenly,
has been raised since birth by
her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs.
Clement C. Wiemals of 539 N.
Winter St Her mother, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Wiemals, died
in childbirth.
A second son of the Wiemals,
S. Sgt. Clement Wiemals, is in
Korea with the Air Force. No
contact has yet been made with
him, despite a telephone call
made to Korea Sunday night by
John Wiemals of Roseburg, the
third son.
Mrs. Wiemals explained that
Hyacinth was "even closer than
a sister" to her sons, particularly
because their own sister had
died.
When the child became seri
ously ill, the Red -Cross sent ira
diograms to her uncles in hopes
of getting them home. Monday,
messages were sent telling of the
little girl's death. '
Mrs. Helen Bailey home serv
ice director of the Red Cross
here, said she had done every
thing possible to get the mes
sages through, but she had heard
nothing as yet

In Conflict on
Precinct Lines
The City of Salem and the
j County of Marion came to trrins
' on the proper boundaries of Sa-
lem's precincts Monday, with the
result that the city's new ward
map virtually went out the win-1
dow.
It had to, because the county
i knM. th. ,
" "r1 "U.
Here's what happened:
The city some time ago decided
there was too great a disparity in
the voting population of its wards,
so it sought to even things up by
re-allocating precincts to form
new ward boundary .lines. The re
arrangement made ; a fine, new
ward-boundary map and each
councilman elected by wards
therefore would be representing
relatively the same number of
people.
But the county also had its
problem. By law, when a pre
cinct's voters exceed 500 it has
to redistrict the precinct So
County Clerk Henry Mattson, aid
ed by Sheriff Denver Young, cut
up some big precincts, changed
their boundaries, and in effect
added eight new ones within Sa
lem. The result boundary lines of
the city's proposed - words cut
right through some ; of the new
boundary lines set up by the
county for precincts. And by law
a precinct boundary can't trans
can d a ward boundary.
After a consultation Monday
between city and county officials,
it was decided the county's new
precinct boundaries would stand,
with one minor exception, and
the city's new map would have to
be re-done so the ward lines did
n't eut any precinct in two.
