Several formal protests against

been received by the city man

and will present an ordinance
which raises the service charge for
financing the city's proposed sew
age disposal plant from 25 cents
to $1 a month,.
In connection with the sewage
disposal plant, City Recorder Hen

letter from the Oregon State Sani
tary Authority, which requests the
city to "proceed with actual con
struction ... of the plant at the
earliest possible date."
Plans and specifications for the
plant are on file in the city man

Final readings on several sew

New Oregon
Town Appears
DETROIT, Ore. VP) Oregon
has a new if temporary town,
and its name is Mongold.
It is the community springing
up near the site of the Detroit
Dam, now under construction.
There plans are being laid to take
care of the estimated 1000 work
men who will be hired when dam
construction gets under way fully.
A sewage system, disposal plant,
street system and a school have
been completed. Forty-eight
apartments and four dormitories
also will be erected.
The town of Detroit will be
covered with water when the dam
is completed.
Traffic Deaths
Are Unlicensed
In Oregon, the traffic of unli
censed drivers are nearly three
times as likely to be fatal as those
of valid license holders.
Although licensed drivers are
responsible for the lion's share of
all accidents and deaths, the rec
ord reveals a difference in the le
thal quality, of their mishaps when
compared with those of unlicensed
drivers, according to the secretary
of state's office.
Using figures for Oregon resi
dents only. It is reported that li
censed fata drivers numbered 368
in a total of 104,924 involved
accidents last year. The ratio of
non-fatal to fatal drivers was ap
proximately 284 to one. Unlicens'
ed death drivers totalled 39 out of
4014 involved in accidents for a
ratio of 102 to one.
It was pointed out that unlicens
ed drivers include those who have
allowed their permits to expire as
well as those who have never held
a valid permit. Those In the first
category have been steadily in
creasing since the staggered li
cense renewal program went into
effect in June, 1947, after a war
time extension of expiration.
Drivers holding licenses with a
"5R" numerical prefix are urged
to obtain renewal schedules from
their police station or driver's ex
aminer office. All such licenses
will have expired by the end of
May. Those who wait too long to
renew may be required to pass the
original driver's examination be
fore receiving a valid permit.

I "When I entered the class I was

But the first day in class, stu

Little things like that kept com

of the Mayor vs. Council fight
here.
Briggs said he was stepping
aside so that voters could judge
Councilmen John Daugherty, John
Nosier and Herbert Fischborn on
their own merits in a recall elec
tion next Thursday.
Briggs sid he feared some op
position to him might reflect
against the councilmen if he stay
ed in office.
Briggs and Police Chief Clar
ence Williams were the immediate
causes of the fight between the
council and Mayor Tom Williams.
When the mayor attempted to re
place them, the council blocked
him.
Then supporters of the mayor
started the recall move gainst the
council.

June Speedup
Due at Dorena
W. A. Schwarz, resident en
gineer on the Dorena Dam project,
said Saturday that full operation
on an around-the-clock basis is
not expected until the first part of
June. Foremen for the many crews
may be on location during May, he
said, and double shifting may oc
cur later in that month.
Quite a bit of the mechanical
equipment is now being installed,
he reported, and most of the con
crete work is done. Actual filling
work cannot be started until
weather is more ideal.
A. H. Steiner, project superin
tendent for the Dorena Construc
tion Co., said the dam probably
will be in operation by flood sea
son next.winter. It will be about
seven months ahead of schedule.
If so. engineers will be able to
hold back 1.1.' feet in the event of
a Willamette River flood.
With the 3 to 6 feet that can be
held back by Fern Ridge and Cot
taee Grove dams, the new reser
voir will lessen downstream flood
damage considerably.
