Mystery of
Carnival
Banner Ends
The "mystery" of who hung op
the carnival banner Is solved.
Two men from Krebs Advertis
ing hung M up last week like they
were paid to do across S Com
mercial Street at Candalaris Ave
nue i in th city).
The South Salem Suburban Cham
ber had ordered the banner, which
reads "CARNIVAL HERE JUNE
4. S. (. 7 and I." They're sponsor
ing th Browning Bros. Carnival
a Liberty Read and Browning
Avenue (outside the city) to raise
money for Its two parks, and
thought a banner nearby would
help.
They applied' to the Stat High
way Department for a banner
hanging permit, but through a
mixup, the sign was hung inside
th city.
Henry Bens of the city engineer's
office saw last Wednesday that no
one had obtained a permit for
hanging th banner which re
quires approval a the City Coun
cil, city engineer and city mana
gerand so be took it down. He
folded the $100 flag gently and put
it in a drawer1 ia his office.
There it lies.

When Ways and Means Chairman
Alfred H. Corbett D). Portland,
said he didn't know "the precise
amount of revenue that will be
available," then fellow Democratic
Sen. Walter J. Pearson moved for
sending the bill back to ways and

Gov. Holmes said the proposed
liquor price increase would pro
duce an extra $3,000,000. Pear sot
said the price boost might rot

revenue could be counted.
