The commission said the depart
ment has proved Its belief In use of

by netiml employment of tho mater

Bridges would not lend themselves
readily to timlier.
TJiie commission mentioned, how
ever, that its study of timber con

bination with n roadway deck of re

"The combination of concrete nnf
timber nnd the development of n
rigid type of shear connection between
tho two mnlerials renders It possible
to produce n structure of compara
tively long life nt about (10 per cent
of the cost of the permanent types
heretofore employed,' the stnlement
added. "Itiiring the past year 2
bridges have been constructed In ac

FLANS ARE PREPARED
Project Would Be Self
Liquidating With
Small Charge
An attempt to obtain n federal loan
from tho Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration for the construction of a nnt
n to Hum nt the Rivervunv park uorth
of Skinner butte will be made if tests
conducted by the stnta botu'd of health
result in the condemnation of the
pre . nt swimming pool, it was re
vealed he) .it ay.
Following complaints from I). Bnyly
and others alleging th:it tliu poul is
unsafe for swimming due to the con
taminated condition of the water, the
council Monday night decided to ask
the state board of health to scud a
representative he. test the water.
Project Self-Liquidating
At the same timu it ordered the city
health officer to make tests of all
commercial swimming places in the
city.
Arthur lieudcrsholt. chairman f
the city playground commission, Thurs
day stated that if the state test should
result in the . condemnation of the
Riverview pool, the commission prob
ably would seek the federal loan to
build a city untatorium.
"I believe such a project would be
feasible ns a self-liquidating project,"
Mr. Ilendershott stated. "By nmkiug a
jjuuill charge uf five cents per person
for swimming, the project would pay
for itself iu a short time. Such a
building is needed here and now is the
logical time to go about getting one."
Plans Prepared
Frank Baker, playground director
for the past few years, completed
plans for a natntoriuni and they are
now in the hnnds of the commission,
ilendershott pointed out. Contractors
have declared the building planned
could be erected for approximately
$10,000.
The project would include the erec
tion of a concrete building, housing n
large pool with the most modern ma
chines for purifying the water every
hour. All swimming equipment, in
cluding slides, diving towers, spring
boards and other items are included in
the plans.
"This matter has lwen considered
severnl times before, but no definiute
action ever bns been started," Ilen
dershott snid. "With the possibility of
classing it ns a .elf-liquidating pro
ject and getting o government loan to
pay for the construction, it wpuld be
a fine thing for the community to have
a nntatorium built this yenr."
Board Delays
' Decision On
High District
No action wns taken by the county
boundary board at its session Thurs
day forenoon on the petition to
crcnto a union bigh school district,
with Creswell ns its center, or on the
petition to add a portion of the
Clovordalo district to IMeasant Hill
union high schooL
A decision was deferred until an
opinion from District Attorney
Brooke Is obtained on the question
of whether or not the board can act
on both petitions. The plan to create
a new union bigh district at Cres
well includes all of tho Cloverdale
district and the petition for the en
largement of the Plensnnt Hill high
union district affects the north half
of Cloverdale. As the- two projects
overlap, some decision as to what
can be dono in the matter will have
to be made. The question will be
taken up by the boundary board at
a meeting to be held July 20 at 10
a, m.
The districts proposed in the peti
tion to form the Creswell union high

power nnd to assure flood control, is
favored by President Roosevelt, ac
cording to special dispatches from
Washington, D. C, to Portland
papers todny.
This dam would be between tide
water and the mouth of Snnke river,
It would be-financed-f ram Vho rivers,
and harbors fund. The work would
bo done without cost to the state
of Oregon, the money supplied by
tho federal government which would
own the project and repay tho fed
cral fund from operating revenues.
A dispatch to the Journal today
gave President Roosevelt's views as
expressed by Senator McNary who
explained he could not quote the
president directly. It Baid "As I un
derstand it, the president is pres
ently prepared to npprove a feasible
site on the lower Columbia. Because
of tho navigation feature, he believes
tho entire cost may properly be ad
vanced by the government, nnd docB
not contemplate that contracts for
sole of power to return the cost
shall be made in advance. Ultimately
over a long term of years there
doubtless will be allocation of part of
the cost from power proceeds.
"It wns a highly satisfactory talk,
and I feel that the people of Oregon
hove every reason for congratula
lion."
Tho article continued that the
president also favors a low dam
at Grand Coulee in central Wash
ington, to be constructed under the
public works act, if Washington or
ganizes a district to finnnce the
undertaking. The state" of Washing
ton would have to repay a loan of
70 per cent of the construction cost.
Thirty per cent would be a grant.
