SEEH0USEWIVES STORY PAGE 3 CO OF WIDENING East Eleventh Group is Declared Opposed to Loss of Trees BEER LICENSES UP West Eleventh Through Street Project is Given Backing Consideration of remonstrances against a proposal to widen East Eleventh avenue and recommendot ions on beer license applications will feature the deliberations of the city fathers at the first lOHii meeting of the city council at city hall Mon day night. It will be the first official ap pearance of the new city recorder, Calvin M. Bryan and Councilman Fred Carlson, who was elected to replace P. J. Edwards in the first word. Tree Loss Fought In the Eleventh avenue contro versy, the council will be deluged with petitions, one group remon strating against any plan to widen East Eleventh street and the other advocating establishment of West Eleventh avenue as a stop street. W. F. Gilstrop, who with B. B. Brundnge is circulating petitions against the widening project, said Saturday 10 property owners on Eleventh hod signed the petitions, representing approximately 2,000 feet frontage. Many property owners on side streets off Eleventh hod ex pressed themselves as opposed to the measure, he said. He expected to have many more signatures be fore Monday night. The petitions protest the widening of the street which would cause the removal of shade trees along the avenue, destroying an "orna ment" to the city. Grange Favors Plan The Pi gene Realty board is to present a resolution, urging the wi dening of the street for the purpose of creating it fl through street, thus acting to curtail the many accidents at intersections of this street. Coun cilman E. W. Zumwnlt has proposed establishing the entire length of Ele venth avenue as a through street, his plan also embracing the widen ing of East Eleventh which is now only 34 feet wide, hardly sufficient to accommodate concentrated traffic, he points out. Residents in the area just west of the city are getting up petitions urging the council to make Eleventh a stop street as a safety measure.

This $2" represents the entire loss by fire for the city for the months of November and i Ilncnmh,!.. It trns noinfed out. I Officials of the fire department attribute this low loss during; the last two months of the yenr to the intensive fire prevention campaign carried on here by the department during the month of October.

IT CQUNC L Production Must Be Controlled To Miss Ruin, Compton WASHIXGTOX, Jan. 12 UP) Complete disintegration of the lumber industry was predicted todny by Dr. Wilson Compton, manager of the Na tional Lumber Manufacturers associa tion, uunless production control is continued. Without control of production, Compton, said, the fore at products industries are threatened with "com petitive pressure" which will return "sweat shop wages' force "disinte gration" and "waste the forest re sources." On the other hand, be said, direct federal regulation and "eventually public ownership," may possibly follow if NBA should remove "deliberate ad. justment of production to consump tion." "The vast but widely scattered for est products industries, due to finan cial and competitive pressure, hive been for many years under the severe handicap of continuous actunl or threatening over production." Comp ton snid in a statement today enlarg ing on a report be submitted to the national industrial recovery board hearing on general price conditions. This condition has ordinarily re sulted, not only in destructive com petition, but also in waste of natural resources and deterioration of de pendent communities, he added. Project Held Feasible as Part of President's Power Program A renewed drive in the interest of the $1,000,000 Ilennie dnm pro ject on the MeKenzie river was forecast here Saturday by cham ber of commerce officials who de clared that with the president favor ing such projects as unemployment relief measures the time .ppeared ripe to push this project. As soon as the perplexing problem of locating the chamber offices can be settled, a meeting of the Ilennie dnm committee of the chamber, head ed by Dr. II. W. Titus, probably will be called, II. E. Cully, secretary, said Saturday. This committee will obtnin latest information on the status of the project in Washington and will put an intensive campaign designed to "sell" surrounding cities on the pro ject. This campaign la expected to include mass meetings in such cities as Albany, Lebanon, Brownsville and other towns at which Eugene re presentatives will outline the pro posal and explnin the advantage of such a power development to the entire area. So far as is known at present, the Bennie dam project has received approval of the Oregon PWA com mittee, the engineering, finance and legal departments of PWA in Wash ington, but is against the opposition of Secretary Ickes. However, with the president recently advocating such projects, it is believed the Ilennie dom project could be jam med through PWA if a concentrated effort were to be made.
