ft PAGE SIX THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1926 PLAN OF PAYING FOR KAY PARK IS REAL PROBLEM The method of paying for the Kay park site that the ctly pur chased from T. B, Kay about a year ago ts proving a knotty problem for the city council. The question now la whether tho money will be paid from proceeds of the city tour ist camp ground or whether some other menns of financing the pur Chase shutl be developed. At the council meeting Inst night the ways and means committee was instructed to meet with the city park board and discuss the matter. The price the city agreed to- pay was IC000, or $800 an acre for about 7 acres. When Mayor Glesy last night suggested that the committees confer. on the question Alderman Purvlnb reminded the mayor and the other councllmen that "the only way under the sun to pay for It Is from the tourist tamp ground funds." "That was the program we start ed out on," said Puivine, "und we Ihould follow it out. There are.no ther funds for the purpose." Mayor Olesy said today that there is ample money In the auto fork fund and the question at issue Is merely one of how much of that tund should be set aside this year Jrom the fund. The park board Is )ontemplatlng Improvements at the lamp grounds and does not want to e hampered by too great an imount being set aside for another purpose. It was proposed nt the Council meeting two weeks ago Hint 1 3C0 be set aside. $1000 to pay in principal and $3C0 on Interest. MQl'OIt ARRKSTS Mill City, Or., Sept. 21.

AYES AND PELZ BOUT HELD SURE Although Harry Plant, match maker, has been unable to get def inite word in regards to matching Phil Baycs, Salem, against Benny Pelc of Portland, he is certain that he will be able to draw up agree ments that will be suitable to both parties. However, the fight will not be staged during state fair week, as formerly planned, said Plant last night. "If we do match Pelz and Bnyes we will have to wait until the week following fair at least, as Bayes will have to come down In weight to meet the scrappy little Portlnnder." Pelz's manager wanted Bayes to guuruntee to weigh In at 122, little too much to leave Phil In his best fighting weight, it Is thought. Hayes was willing to train to 124 It was then decided to compromise and It the Siilem puncher would agree to go on the tsenlcs ut 123 It tvuuld be a light. Salem's Idol has been deciding whether or not ho will be able to mttko 123 without weakening him self and his decision will be ready within a day or so, although It is thought that he will ugree to meet 'Pelz at this weight.

Some facts about the United States Rubber Company's w Flat Band Method" which ensures uniform stretch and tension of every cord in the tire QWhat is the trFtat Band Method" of building a titer A Tbo tire is built In the form of a flat band upon a drum. Tlio plies of Latex-treated Web Cord aro laid and fitted by band, no above tho other. Tho opposite edges of tho band aro1 turned around and securely anchored to "beads'1 consisting of rings of many strands of piano wire imbedded in hard rubber. The flut band carcass is then brought into shape on a special machine. QDoes this differ from the usual method of building tires? A Yes. Before the United States Rubber Company developed tho Flat Band Method, tho usual practice was to uso a solid, metal ring-shaped form on which tho cord fabrio vas laid and pressed into place by a rotating wheel coming In contact with tho surface of tho rubberized fubric. QWhat does Flat Band building add to the service of United State Tires? , A It makes tho tiro uniformly strong throughout. It eliminates the fault often found in tho old-atyle const ruction, of some cords being too taut while others were- loose. In Flat Band building, all the cords are under even tension, and flexibility is uniform. There- ore no weak spots to develop trouble. Q-What Company developed the Flat Band Method? A Tho Flot Band McUiod was developed by tho United States Rubber Company and is patented and owned by this Company.

Herrlck, Johnson, Purvlne, Roeebraugh, Simeral and Thomp son against It. The effect of this vote Is that City Attorney Williams will take the city Into litigation with the Oregon States, which organization, through his attorney, John Logan of Portland, has enjoined the city from collecting a fee as high 120, on grounds that It would be a fee for revenue Instead of regula tion. Passed January 28 Last An ordinance passed January 28 last fixed the fee at 25 for taxi- cabs and $20 for stages. This measure is the one the city Is en joined from enforcing. The $10 bill was Introduced two weeks ago. This came up for third reading last night after the adoption of a committee report recommending certain amendments, the only im portant one of which provided that the ordinance apply to certain classes of operators, such as the highland bus, that does not oper ate under city franchise. Taking advantage of the fact that the council was In commit tee of the whole for the purpose of considering the amendments, Alderman Patton moved that the fee be fixed at $25 instead of $10.
