AIRPORT AND TAXES
The budsret under which the city of Bend is operating in the
current fiscal year contains an item of $21,250 for airport
expansion. When the year ends on June 30 it is expected that
$20,01)0 or tnis amount win remain unspent, in aiseussion
of the budget tentatively suggested for the coming year the
question has been raised whether the $20,000 should be used
as originally intended. As alternatives the use of this sum for
needed fire equipment or to make possible a lower tax levy
has been proposed.
Whether the current budget's $21,250 item for airport ex
pansion would have been approved by the voters last year
had they had the opportunity of voting on it independently
one cannot say. The item was approved, however, as a part of
the total estimates and the money is now in hand. On the
strength of last year's approval plans for use of the $20,000
with $27,000 of federal aid have been in the making. The fed
eral funds have been allocated and there are now needed only
a few signatures on a piece of paper before the expenditure
can be begun and the improvement completed. The signatures
should be affixed and the work started.
With respect to fire equipment the budget committee should
bake a full investigation and if it is satisfied that the need
exists the necessary item should be included,
i As to the budget in general which will determine the size
of the coming year's city tax levy one can say now only that
the budget committee should do the best it cun in developing
a program of expenditures that will make a reduced tax'
possible. The airport expenditure, however the committee
need not concern itself with. That matter was taken care of
last year, the funds were earmarked and the job should go
forward, '
USE IT WISELY .
Announcement of water rationing in the irrigation of
lawns and gardens in Bend is just another of the signs that
spring is really here but the extremely heavy use this week
that has made it necessary is more than a sign of spring. It is
an index to srreatly increased population, number of homes'
and is a result of the unusually long dry period that preceded
the coming of warm weather. More water has been -needed
for both reasons. In all this there is the suggestion that, un
less a wet summer helps (last year's heavy and frequent rains
reduced demands on municipal storage), a definite shortage
may develop in the next few months.
This has been foreseen and the city has already prepared
its answer in plans for a new high pressure water line and
. for an Awbrey butte reservoir. Unfortunutely the answer
will not be effective this season. It is a project so expensive,
that it can hardly be financed without bonding, which re
quires, first of all, authorization by the voters, second, sale
of the bonds, before, any appreciable amount of work beyond
the preliminary stages can be undertaken. Even if the con-
, tract Could bo let tomorrow; it is doubtfulthat the 'ob could
be completed in time to help thirty liiwiiB:6r assure udequate
' pressure for fire departrnent.needs'this'yoar.
That brings us back to tho sprinkling schedule. It is ijot
too rigorous now. Later a mid-afternoon period when no
sprinkling can be permitted will probably be required. It was
.last summer,, in spite of the unusual precipitation. But,
whether rigorous or not, it will need to be followed closely if
there is to be water enough to go around. Householder co
operation will be of the utmost importance and, for those
who are inclined to disregard the rules, police enforcement.
We hope that the completeness of the first may leave no
. cause for the alternative means of control.
It is easy to waste water, all too easy. But it is astonishing
what results a limited amount of water will get when it is
intelligently used. With care Bond can keep within the limits
and still retain the loveliness of the green lawns in which it
takes such justifiable pride. '.
CONGRATULATIONS, EUGENE I
The record established by Hank Nilsen in his gridiron!
coaching years here, both before and since the war (in be-;
tween he was engaged in one of the toughest campaigns 'of I
the European battle zones) has been an outstanding one. Wej
suppose that this same record as a fine director of boys and ;
-.1 ........ ,1. ..ll l l I. ...
us a trainer unit miuii'im hi luwiutui wunuiu iwiu mum to
do with the Eugene school administration's desire to obtain j
his services. I
Today's news announces that he has accepted the offer of j
the Eugene district board. There will be general regret in ;
Bend at his decision, regret at the loss of a more than usually i
.gifted coach, a fine classroom instructor and an all-around
good citizen. " j
Crooked River
Diversion Hit
Princvllle, April 18 Following
a like action taken the night be
fore by the Prineville Carpenters'
union, A. F, ot L,, the Crook Coun
ty Farm bureau Wednesday night
adopted a resolution asking Mich
ael W. Straus, commissioner of
the U. S. bureau of reclamation,
to present to the 81st congress
at the earliest possible moment a
report on the Crooked river flood
control and reclamation project.
The resolutions, both of which
cite that the development in a
maximum way of lands of Crook
county, adapted to application of
the stored waters for beneficial
uses, will Increase substantially
the nation's food supply and bring
economic stability to this Central
Oregon area. The labor union
members point out that construc
tion of dams arid canal systems
will provide a needed backlog of
employment for laboring men. 1
The action , of these groups,
which followed resolutions for
warded to the bureau of reclama
tion last week by granges of
Post and Paulina and petitions
from landowners along Crooked
river, was stimulated by a recent
report of Commissioner Straus
to Senator Guy Cordon, indicat
ing that the bureau plans on
changing the Crooked river de
velopment in sush wise as to pre
clude the watering of lands in the
river basin south of here, and di
verting a substantial lot of the
stored waters to other sections of
the Deschutes valley.
The Crook county residents are
letting . Washington officialdom
know that' they will oppose the
diversion of Crooked river water
except in such surplus as will
be over and above the need of
their own lands.

Bees in Attic, ''!
Life Not Sweet ;
Seattle, Aprll'ie IP-Life is not
sweet for Mrs. Harland C. Paige
even if honey does literally drop
from her ceiling.
Five swarms of bees have built
a 10-foot comb under the roof.
The bees sting her neighbors,
her dogs and have discouraged
visitors.
Mrs. Paige has been stung so
many times she has lost count.
And now the bees have chewed
through the ceiling to stop the
escaping honey.
"I need help from someone who
understands bees," Mrs. Paige
said. "I'm afraid the ceiling will
cave In,"
