Oregon's Public Utilities Com missioner Charles Heltzel ruled recently that the proposal is not in the public interest. It had been submitted to him, according to Orenon law, and he waited the re quired 90 days before announcing his adverse ruling. The council can now call lor an election oy city voters or reject tne proposal. Municipal Power officials made the initial proposal to freeze rates of its competitor. A major con tention was that the private firm was going to ask for rate in creases, Mountain States did not, however, make that move. The council is acting for Municipal Power in the action. Other matters to go before the council include the resignation of Councilman Clem Krueger, who is moving from the city; consid eration of a petition from city employes, asking for a 7 per cent pay increase until July 1, 1952; receiving petitions for Im provements, and other items.

These include makers of Venetian blinds, screen doors, auto trailers, lamps, toys and cos tume jewelry. Sessions are scheduled for Se attle and Portland, MJETT'S SKY REVIEW By J. HUGH PRtJETT Altronomtti Izteniloa' DlvlllBK Oravon Hllhtr Eilnofttla Sritem kr the teleuhone came this raphies about 'We are having an argu- here in the office and we jou to settle it. Does the i axis tip sufficiently six months to give us the tence in temperature be- wlnter and summer?" Itn called upon to mediate tronomical dispute, I am n pleased to be able to tell lit doing the inquiring that right. In this case, how- 1 had skillfully to suggest Sie truth lay on the other m ask the reader to con a diagram on a sheet of In the center of the sheet a circle around a silver pilar if such wealth is inside this circle write, Inn." To the right of this par the edge of the sheet a circle around a dime, this, "The Earth." i i little above the earth iim a line straight down ! Its center and continue wn distance below the Prt of the circle. Thit !!ts the imaginary axis which the entire earth s approximately once each urJ. (The more exact time 1 as minutes.) This relation turnn iw n.-t Mi alternately toward r'l irom the sun, thus uy ana night. e axis of th oorii, j Kuig,ht up we have fit Didn't we learn snm. M grade-school geog. a 23-degree tilt? If the upper end of this axis is tipped down 23 Vi de grees toward the left, an amount a little less than one-third that to make it point directly toward the sun, we have the approxi mate tilt. Rearrange the axis in your diagram accordingly. We now have the condition of summer in the northern hemi sphere and winter in the south ern. The sun can warm the end of the earth turned toward it much better than the other. H the north pole could slowly tip toward the right so that in six months it would point as far to the right of straight up as it does to the left in summer, we would have winter conditions without any doubt. But it does not do it that way, The axis continues to tilt to the left as the earth moves around the sun. In three months it will be hidden behind the sun in our diagram. Draw another 10-cent earth at the left of the sun with the north pole still tilting toward the left. This is the winter position six months from the summer position. The seasons are thus due to the annual revolution of the earth around the sun while the earth's axis remains at prac tically the same tile. There is a complete change of tilt in a period of 25,800 years, the cause of the precession (not "procession") of the equinoxes, but that affects conditions very ran in a human lifetime.
