Salem city firemen asked the City Council Monday night for
about $30,000 worth of back pay.-
Mayor Alfred W. Loucks said the Council would not accept .the
claim because aldermen didn't consider a salary adjustment of last

Olyimria Trip
Nets Suspect
T. J. Short, of Texas, wanted
In Salem on a charge of cashing
ovre $2,000 worth of forged
checks, was finally returned to
Salem Monday evening by Mar
Ion County Sheriff Denver
-Young.
SBort had hidden behind legal
harriers at Olvmoia. Wash., since
his arrest there early last Au
gust and subsequent suspicion
fn the Salem check charge. He
was indicted by the July Mar
Inn Cnuntv erand Jury on the
strength of evidence involving
checks passed in beptemoer,
1952.
In a chance conversation last
"August with an Alympia detec
tive, a Salem city detective
learned that Short had been ar
rested in that city. The similar
ity of methods of operation led
.the detective to check the man
nd later linked him with the
Salem charge.
There ensued a legal battle on
the part of Short's attorney who
filed for a writ of habeas corpus
claiming there was no proof that
Short was actually inn nSalem in
. September, 1952. During this
-time Sheriff Young and city de
tectives made two trips to
Dlympia, returning without their
man. Young succeeded Monday.
The sheriff also brought Leo

charge.

The point in question, long a
controversy, concerns the pay dif
ferential between firemen and po
licemen in which the firemen get
less on the basis of the higher
cost of their pension system.
The differential was set at $20
in 1949. A later survey .of costs
and salaries led to a change un
der which the differential was
reduced to $12 inApril, 1952.
Approve Request
In other business at the City
Hall session Monday night, the
Council voted 5-3 in favor of va
cating a never-used North Salem
street as requested by . Howard
Olsen who is developing a re
cently annexed property on the
east tside of the Pacific Highway
near north city limits.
Olsen told the Council the
street in question, paralleling
and abutting the highway for 500
feet, was intended to be a pri
vatee street but was marked on
the plat as a dedicated street He
said the street was necessary to
develop business property be
cause there is only limited access
to the highway in the area.
"Benefit Fee
Big question was over the
amount of the "benefit fee" the
city could charge for the vaca
tion. Officials had set the fee at
$6,885, based on selling price of
Olsen's adjacent property.
Mayor Loucks advocated grant
ing the vacation without charge
because "we're not in the busi
ness of profiting in real estate,
here's a street never used and
at best tit would be an abnormal
city street" Alderman David O-
Hara sugested the fee be changed
to $100, and his plan was adopted
by the Council
Street Vacation
The Council introduced bills to
vacate without charge one block
of Gaines Street and part of an
alley north of Grant School
grounds where Salem School Dis
trict plans a new building and
needs more space for playground
purposes.
The Council passed a bill per
mitting curb sidewalks on Cross
between Davidson and Winter
Streets. Another ordinance given
final approval provides a five
year franchise for Southern Pa
cific's Second Street spur track
in West Salem.
In discussion of the one-way
street grid as finally approved
(story on page 1), City Manager
J. L. Franzen confirmed that mak
ing Winter Street one-way would
mean the city could no longer
barricade Winter between Che
meketa and Center Streets, as
now done at certain hours to al
low play space for St Joseph's
Catholic School children.

More than 260 friends and
members of the Oregon dairy in
dustry gathered at the Senator
Hotel Monday night to pay trib
ute to Roger Morse who la re
tiring as extension dairy special
ist at Oregon State College after
30 years in that work.
Following a buffet dinner, at
a brief formal ' program, Morse
was presented with a large tele
vision set and funds for its in
stallation. Making the presenta
tion was Arthur Ireland, Forest
Grove, past president of the Or
egon Dairyman's association,
"No one realizes better than
the past presidents of this assoc
iation what Morse has done for
the group," Ireland said in mak
ing the presentation. "I haven't
missed a meeting in 25 years and
during aU of that time Morse
served as secretary, directing the
program and giving the presi
dents who came and went, con
fidence in their work."
Given Congratulations
"There's a void at the college
in our department of which we
are aU conscious. We have come
to depend upon Morse and we do
not like to think of going ahead
without him," Frank Ballard, as
sistant director qf agriculture at
the college told the group. He
added that "while Morse won't be
on the payroll, we'll continue to
use him, and I personally con
gratulate him upon the service
he has done for Oregon agricul
ture." George Fullenwider of Dayton
was master of ceremonies, and
P.M. Brandt, head of the dairy
division at the college, also re
sponded to a call for brief talk.
Like the others, Brandt spoke of
his years of association with
Morse.
From Other Areas
Attending the dinner were
dairymen and other friends from
Tillamook, Portland, and through
out the Willamette Valley, and a
number from Eastern Oregon who
had attended school with Morse,
had been his students at the
college, or had been associated
with him in the dairy industry.
Harold Ewalt, a member of the
extension dairy staff since 1944
and who succeeds Morse, assist
ed in the evening's arrangements.

Warning Issued 77
Against Excessive
Use of Vaporizers
PORTLAND Jfl -V The State
Board of' Health Monday issued a
warning against improper use of
insecticide vaporizers.
Harold M. Erickson. state
health officer, said the vaporizers
should not be used in homes or
sleeping areas, and a ban has been
placed on their useby hotels and
auto courts.
He said the vaporizers are safe
only when used in commercial or
industrial establishments where
persons are not exposed to the
fumes more than eight hours.
Warren Said
Likely Choice
For Court Snot
WASHINGTON W The belief
grew in Washington Monday night
that California's Governor Earl
Warren has been tapped by Presi
dent Eisenhower for the U. S. Su
preme Court if he wants the
job.
It was still an official mystery,
but the flurry of week-end confer
ences at Sacramento and the White
House seemed to point up the wide
ly held opinion that Warren will
be named either chief justice or
associate justice.
The court is scheduled to con
vene for its fall term next Mon
day. If the President wants a full
court sitting for the start of the
year's business, he must act this
week.
Warren's availability has been
more or less taken for granted
ever since he announced earlier
this year he would not seek reelec
tion in California.
Attorney General Brownell.
meanwhile, kept a tight lid on the
nature of his hurry-up trip to the
West Coast Saturday to confer with
Warren.

Revisions in
Zoning Code
(Story also on Page 1.)
A procession of Salem citizens
spoke up for changes in a pro
posed new city zoning code Mon
day night as the City Council
gave the legislation a public hear
ing. But none of the major prin
ciples of the new zoning . plan
came under attack, and neither
Mayor Alfred W. Loucks nor
Zoning Commissioner Robert
Stanley who headed the revision
committee, had reports of any
such opposition to bring before
the Council. In fact, both officials
said after the hearing they have
come to feel that the new code is
generally accepted in Salem.
The objections Monday night
at the City Hall hearing, like the
citizens' opinions heard at many
zoning meetings in recent
months, concerned the particular
zone classification given indiv
idual properties or small neigh
borhoods. Aldermen promised to give
all suggestions their considera
tion, but some members indicat
ed they would not like to act
without hearing from others in
a given neighborhood not
touched on In previous hearings.
Zoning Chairman W. W. Rose
braugh and Mayor Loucks decid
ed that next step in the zone leg
islation would be a joint meeting
of zoners and aldermen Oct. 12 to
go over the final appeals.
The new code established
many new zone categories so
that transitions are more gradual
in the use of property allowed
under the zoning. Also incorpor
ated in the code are required off
street parking, minimum lot
sizes, vision clearance, street set
backs and many other features.

In Portland is a city problem, not

in a letter to the City Council.
The Council will hold -a public
hearing Oct 13 on an anti-smog

will oppose the ordinance on the
ground that smog control is a job
for the state, not for the city.
Curtis M. Everts Jr., secretary
of the state authority, said it does
not have enough funds to handle

statewide pollution problems.
