New Zoning Ordinance for City
Takes Effect After Overhauling
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1)
hodge-podge ' system of zoning
which had grown up in the city
tn previous years, the new ordi
nance will effect a number of
significant changes.
Eleven Classes
Eleven land-use designations
are provided in place of the five
in use before. By providing more
specific definitions, the new ordi
nance will eliminate many "loop
holes." It also will be more flex
ible in application through this
provision of additional land-use
categories.
Added to the former list of
classifications for city property
have been those for central busi
ness district, limited commercial,
limited industrial, outer residen
tial and public lands.
Arterial Setbacks
The new ordinance imposes 52
foot setbacks (measured from the
center of the street) on all build
ings to be erected along certain
streets which have been marked
for future development into a
citywide arterial traffic system.
Attacking at least a portion of
the parking problem, the ordi
nance also requires all new com
merial and industrial develop
ments to make provision for load
ing zones.
Land-Use Map
In applying the various zoning
classifications, the council adopted
a land-use map at the same time
the ordinance itself was passed.
This map shows the classifica
tion approved for each lot in the
city. As compared with previous
zoning, the new map includes a
much greater number of multiple
family residential sites, especially
on the west side of the city. Also
significant is the expansion of the
area zoned for light industrial
purposes in the northwest portion
of town.
The most hotly contested zoning-
Issue of the year la still un
decided, however. The council
did not aet to change the resi
dential sonlni on the Franklin
Blvd. property which Henry
Byers of Medford hopes to build
a drive-In restaurant.
Referendum action by a pro
perty owners' group prevented an
earlier council attempt to grant
Byers' request for rezonlng.
The issue will be decided by all
of Eugene's voters at the Novem
ber election-

Paper Names
Spy Leader
NEW YORK (U.PJ The leader
of a Soviet spy ring whose con
fessions allegedly touched off a
grand Jury investigation of Com
munism was identified Wednes
day as Miss Elizabeth T. Bentley,
of New York City, by the New
York World-Telegram.
Miss Bentley has been called to
testify before the House Un-American
Activities Committee in
Washington. Committee Investiga
tor Robert Stribling said she was
a witness who had testified be
fore the grand jury investigating
Communism in New York.
During the war, the World-Telegram
said, Miss Bentley, 36, was
vice-president of the U. S. Service
and Shipping Corp. of New York,
which was Communist - organized
and had an exclusive franchise to
collect customs duties on relief
package folng to me Soviet
Union. ,
In a series of dispatches last
week the World-Telegram said
that Miss Bentley, then unnamed,
actually headed a ring of agents,
many of them government em
ployes which gathered secret poli
tical and military information for
Russia.
According to the newspaper,
Miss Bentley now is a secretary
stenographer for a New York City
business firm. The newspaper said
it held her name secret until it
was revealed by government offi
cials. It quoted her as saying:
"I am not enthusiastic about the
publicity I shall receive, but. Just
as I went to the FBI and later ap
peared before the grand Jury, I
will now cooperate with the com
mittee and any other American
agencies which feel I can be of
service."
The newspaper said that Miss
Bentley, New England born and a
member of an old American fam
ily, suffered pangs of conscience
about her work in 1945 and went
to the FBI with her story.

that they were X-rayed before
