TAGE SIX Coates Suggests Two Proposals To Commission Salem. Jan. 31 WW Robert T. Coates of Portland today offered the state capltol planning com mission two alternate proposals to nis projected construction of a $350,000, seven-story apartment , Dunuing on summer street, in tne path of the capitol zone. Coates said he obtained the site for his proposed apa rtment through a prominent Salem real tor, and obtained FHA approval lor the project through the as sistance of the Salem chamber of commerce." Coates offered to sell the prop erty to the state of Oregon "or anyone acting on its behalf" at its original cost "plus my out-of-pocket expenses," making a total amount of $29,931.50. As an alternative, he said that if the state "or anyone else" can get him a piece of property in the immediate area on which present architectural and enginee ring . plans can be used for the price he paid for the Summer street property Itself, he would be will ing to make the trade. The Portland builder listed his expenses to date as: $12,600 for the price of the property: $15,600 architect's fees; $960 FHA fees for commitment; $100 for a sur vey and $671.50 for the city of balem building fee. Feb. 5 Deadline Coates said that either plan must be in full effect by Feb. 5, and added that if neither plan is accepted "within that time, I will - have no alternative other than to proceed with the construction of Capitol Plaza on the present site." From the national capital, U. S. Sen. Guy Cordon, Oregon republi can, sent word that there is no deadline on the FHA commitment on the Salem project. At request ' of Gov. Douglas McKay, Sen. Cor don had contacted FHA officials in Washington. Robert Parkman, Cordon's sec retary, telephoned today that there "must have been some mis understanding" concerning a defi nite deadline. "There is no defl- . nite deadline," he said. But he added there was need for haste in solving the problem, as the con gressional act under which Coates applied for the FHA commitment iill expire March 1 and FHA will no longer have authority to act to the matter after that date. Oregon FHA. administrator said it would be nearly impossible to process a commitment on new plans before the March 1 expira- ; tion date of the law and new plans on a lot comparable to the present one would take 20 days to process. Release of the con tents of Coates' letter to the capl tol planning commission was au thorized by Robert W. Sawyer, Bend publisher, who is chairman r of the commission. The state board of control is expected to take action on the t matter at Its meeting here Wed nesday. Then the state emer gency board, which may have to take final action, is expected to meet as soon as possible for its decision. March 1 Deadline Washington, Jan. 31 U" The federal housing administration said today it was notifying a Portland builder that he would have until March 1 to hunt a new site for a Salem apartment house. The builder, Robert Coates, has FHA approval to construct the apartment on a Salem site, which the state capltol planning com mission wants for future capitol buildings. The FHA said it was telephon ing Coates that there is no time limit on his application, except that the law under which he is applying expires March 1. Shevlin Shevlin.

WHY THERE'S A SMILE IN HER VOICE A quick sketch of your telephone operator's work l V Lir J 1. Even the newest operator perhaps a youngster just out of high school soon finds why the company is a good place to work. Soon after she's learned to use "the voice with a smile" she gets her first wage increase. Others follow regularly. In the last six months of 1919, women working at our switchboards actually averaged about $50 a week. Many, more ex perienced, earned substantially more. 3. We're not looking for more operators right now ... for wc have all we need in most places. But this messagtgives some of the reasons why telephone jobs attract and hold the type of people needed to furnish good service . . .capable people who play so great a part in making your telephone more and more valuable. The Pacific Telephone ra and Telegraph Company recovery from the mild recession of 1949. The federal reserve board's In dustrial production index for De cember reached Its highest mark since April, 1949, and continued to rise in January. It showed that severaly industries are producing more now than they were a year ago. . Less Hoarding The board also sajd that money in circulation continued to de crease, indicating that hoarding is down with the money flowing back Into banks. According to the commerce de partment, steel production rose steadily during the first three weeks of January. Output went up from 192.3 per cent of the 1935-39 average at the end of De cember to 202.9 per cent in the week ending Jan. 21. The reserve-board said schedul ed production of steel ingots dur ing January is 94 per cent of ca pacity. This was 3'j per cent more than last year. The dollar value of department store sales, while remaining steady in the week ending Jan. 21 compared with a year ago, did not reflect lower prices which helped the consumer. The labor department said that retail prices were 2.3 per cent low er at the end of 1949 than they were iz months before. Textile production, the reserve board said, was 10 per cent ahead of a year ago. Textiles were among the hardest hit in the early stages of production cutbacks during 1949, but were among the first to recover.
