And for the first eight months ol this year the city's ac cumulated total of bank debits was $872.4 million 14 per cent above the same period for 1901. The figures are provided by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. Bank debits represent the dollar value of checks drawn against accounts, and are an indication of general eco nomic activity. Comparable figures for Portland for the first eight months 8.6 billion this year as compared to $8.7 billion last year, for a 9 per cent gain. In Salem for the eight months debits have totaled $1.2 billion for both years and therefore show no per centile change.

The request came from the Friendly Street Church of God, for a sidewalk on Adams Street, north of 23rd Avenue, but the discussion soon branched out to policy on curb walks in gen eral. Don Allen, public works di rector, had previously turned down the church's request on the grounds that topography didn't prevent standard set backs at that location. He also noted in a letter to the church that city councils on two pre vious occasions had refused the request. Motion Falls The city's stated policy is to permit curb sidewalks only when terrain is too steep to permit regular setbacks.

Sic l-aran A A l ama A 47c Mnllum A Sc Small A A 3c I lirx 37c curb sidewalk request failed to ' get support from a majority of the councilmen present. Several said curb sidewalks 1 are more practical at a church 1 site, since they are more con-' venient for people getting in and out of cars. . Councilman M. F. Mover noted, however, that two other' property owners in the block are already complying with the cause the sidewalk to jog If the church puts in a curb sidewalk, he said. 'Definite Policy Needed' Swanson said perhaps the city's policy should be changed to permit curb sidewalks at places of public assembly such as schools and churches. He argued there should be a defi nite policy, however, and said the council defeats the whole idea of sidewalk standards when it grants exceptions without a sound reason. The city originally adopted the setback sidewalks standard i because these are considered safer for small children than curb sidewalks, and because the I parking strip is then reserved ' for utility lines. 1 Allen told the council that "for all practical purposes" the city gives up its right to an easement strip when it installs curb sidewalks. : Costly Procedure He said it is true the city still owns a five-foot strip on the properly owner's side of the curb sidewalk. But, he said, ob- jeetions arc usually too great, I and the cost of repairing dam age to lawns and landscaping would be too high, to make use of land inside the sidewalks. After defeating Swanson's mo tion to deny the church request, the council committeeof-thc-wholc decided to wait until Monday night's meeting to give further consideration to the is sue. Three council members were absent Thursday noon. In other matters Thursday, the committce-of-the-wholc gave its approval to a request from the Ribbon Park Trail Assn. for permission to start construction of a hiking trail from a point in Amazon Park to Frank Kin ney Park, near 50th and Uni versity. The committee voted to "file." without action, a request from the Lane Humane Society for an ordinance prohibiting the sale of crocodiles, alligators, painted turtles and "potentially dangerous'' reptiles in Eugene stores.
