Pontiac and NBC have offered to cooperate with the alumni of fice here to notify alumni in all parts of the country of the event and dinners in many parts of the country will be organized. Tom Stix, representing NBC will come to Eugene within a few days to make preliminary arrangements and an expert director will come to Eugene two weeks before the show to direct final rehearsals. Technical arrangements for the broadcast will be. made by Henry Souvaine, of New York, and the place will be the Music Auditorium which has already been approved as almost ideal for the purpose. The show will be done in "full dress" for every number. Students will have first preference for seats. Oregon's program will be one of the first of an extended series from leading universities and the effort will be to set a very high standard.

Doesn't any-such plan overlook the biological fact that there is a big percentage of incompetents who would be encouraged to breed more of their kind, whereas an enlight ened society would try to practice eugenics? Isn't the main trouble "keeping up with the Joneses and the lack of self-discipline in family life? Would the bonuses be used to give children actual necessities such as doctor care and education or to buy more gas? The issue was not settled when the Knights called it a night. Thomas Johnson of Maryland nominated George Washington as commander-in-chief of the Amer ican army before Boston, and not John Adams, as is popularly believed.

G. Reese, who said taxpayers should not be held responsible for the care of transient needy. Arguments Heated The arguments for and against budgeting the sum became heated at times, but the motion passed with little dissent. Councilman Sam Bond recom mended the committee budget $500 for a juvenile officer, stating such an expense would be of great benefit, to the city. The motion passed. Interest payments of general bonds, estimated at $34,052.02, were slashed by one-half on rec ommendation of the budget of ficer, who said surplus tax collec tions from 1937 would make this possible. The committee therefore accepted his proposal and cut the sum for 1938 to $17,026.01. The public library's budget for 1938, amounting to $8745, was ac cepted as requested. Levies Are Set As the budget now stands ap proved, $146,328.06 will be levied for the special fund and $98,123.93 for the general fund. Councilman Peter Hanns re quested the city to transfer $6000 to the parks department for pur chase of the Amazon tract for future development as a civic playground. David Graham and Fred Carlson led the battle against the proposal, saying taxpayers were already burdened enough. Mayor Large promised that the AFL VOTES FOR BOYCOTT OW JAPS Completion of the new trans mission line, now being built from Leaburg to Eugene, will increase the amount of power delivered here by a slight amount, McAr tliur says. Approximately 1000 more kilowatts can be brought to the city in the new line which will eliminate many power leaks exist ing in the old line. At the present time, during construction of the new line, the power delivered to the city is slightly less due to losses through leaks and through construction work. Thus the present electric utility is believed adequate for furnish ing power needed by Eugene for one and one-half years to two years, but present growths Indi cate that after that time, the ca pacity will be reached and addi tional power will be needed. Use Standby Plant The steam standby plant is ex pected to furnish additional power to carry peak loads for the next two years, but if present growth continues, still more power must be found, McArthur says. It is this additional power, need ed to carry the peak loads which demand more electricity than the city's utility can produce, that Eu gene may obtain from the Bonne ville project, provided distribution is provided and rates are right. "If we can buy power from Bonneville for around five mills per kwh, it will pay the city to do so, rather than to build ad- ! ditional units on our own system," the superintendent declared. "Present indications are that we will be able to get power at about that price, but that is one of the things I wish to determine in my conference with Ross." Storage Dam Needed McArthur pointed out that con struction of the additional unit at Leaburg would necessitate greater storage dams on the river. There is not enough water In the river to operate a second unit beyond 69 per cent of the time now, there fore the second unit would not be feasible, he said. Construction of another dam on the McKenzie by Eugene is not to be thought of now, he said, pending final out come of the great Willamette -val ley flood control plans. If the flood control project goes through, a high dam would be constructed at Quartz creek, a few miles above the Rennie dam site, selected by the city for its next McKenzie river dam. Should this dam be built, there would be no use in building the Rennie dam since the larger dam would pro vide adequate storage to insure sufficient water to operate the second unit at Leaburg, McArthur pointed out.

Summarizing the situation, Mc Arthur says Eugene soon will need more power, but expansion ot the hydro system is not advisable pending negotiations on the great Willamette flood control project Therefore, if Bonneville power is available, it will pay the city to use it for surplus power till it is known whether the big federal dam will be built at Quartz creek. An additional unit probably will be needed at the steam plant with in a few years, and it is possible a fund for the design and investi gation of this unit may be Included in the water board budget for 1938, McArthur said. This is un certain as yet, but if the fund is included, it would be looking for ward to the actual construction some time in 1939. Cost of a second unit at the steam standby plant would be approximately $500,000.
