THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OBEGON City Not To Be Done Over In speaking ot the need for this home to care for orphaned and dependent children. Judge Jacob: Kanzler ot the court of domestic1 relations, said recently, "After two years of observation in this court, I find that we have o child caring agency to meet the needs of a large class ot depend ent, neglected and pre-dellnquent children. "Unfortunately, foster homea cannot be found tor many ot these children and their usual fate Is to be moved from one temporary place to another, finally to find themselves stranded, both in means and education, at the age of 18 years. These children are worth saving to good American citizenship and It can be done." It Is to meet this need that this children's farm home has been planned. It is hoped that it will be ready to receive children by early summer. (Continued from page one) Lewis Asks For Conference On New Wage Scale Chicago, Feb. 21. President John L. Lewis of the United Mine Workers of America today asked coal operators of the central com petitive field comprising the states of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and western Pennsylvania, to meet with union officials at Cleveland on March 2 for a wage conference which he said might avert the im pending strike. Similar requests have been re jected by some operators who said that they wished to discontinue collective bargaining wi'th tho miners. meeting was one of the most in teresting held this year. The or dinance providing that the propos al to buy a new triple-combination truck for the file department be placed before the people on the ballots at the May primaries was passed at its third reading last night, the special franchise com mittee was granted additional time in which to report on the Highland stage line problem and four Salem merchants were grant ed licenses to sell soft drinks. Due to the fact that the city at torney was unable to prepare by last night the ordinance which would place before the people at the May election the proposal that the chief of police be appointed by the mayor, the aldermen were un able to pass upon the bill at last evening's session. Appointive Plan Favored. "I am sorry tLui me bill could not have been introduced to night," Dr. F. L. Utter, chairman of the ordinance committee, said. "I believe that the appointive plan is a good one and that through it we would have more efficiency and better cooperation." The ordinance in question will be placed before the council at Its next meeting, he said. After considerable controversy during which Alderman Vande vort charged dlscriminat.'on, tho council voted to deny to the Bond stage line, operating between Sa- Ulem and Independence, a fran chise. The aldermen acted on the report of the Bpecial franchise committee which had explained that the Bond stage line, unlike; one of its competitors, had not op erated on schedule and in otnei ways had indicated that It was not entitled to the privileges sought. An Indictment, charging the council with being "cheap," was returned by Alderman Vandevort after the aldermen had refused to reimburse William Sheridan, of this city, who sought to recover $7.50 expended by him after the radiator of his automobile, held by the police as ball, had been allowed to freeze. "Sheridan paid his fine of $20 and I don't believe he should be forced to pay the $7.60," Mr. Vandevort contended. "It Is true that we are probably not legally liable, but we are, morally." Mr. Vandevort's motion that Sheridan be recompensed lost by a six-to-five vote. "You're pretty cheap,' shouted Mr. Vandevort. Alderman A. F. Marcus drew a laugh during an exchange of words that followed. Matron Office Target. "I want to ask Alderman Van devort a question," he said. "Ask it," Mr. Vandevort en couraged. "Does thiB man belong to the Methodist church?"
