FIRE ENGINE
IS ELECTED BY
CITY COUNCIL
The Salem city council Monday
night elected a new pumper for the
(Ire department. For the first time,
perhaps. In the history of the coun
try a fire engine was elected directly
by ballot, with six candidates In the
field and without regard to bids. A
Mack pumper was chosen on the
third ballot, receiving a majority of
the votes cast by a margin of ouc
vote.
60 that It will not be necersary
for the fire department committee
to close the branch fire stations In
east, north and south Salem the
council voted to transfer $20,000
from the department special tax
fund to the maintenance fund to be
used for salary payments. This was
done over the protest of some mem
bers who considered it Illegal not
withstanding an opinion by City At
torney Trindle.
When all the bids had been open
ed for a new fire pumper It was
found that six firms were bidding,
and some of these had submitted as
many as seven bids each. Alderman
Dancy, chairman of the fire depart
ment committee, immediately moved
that they be referred to the com
lttee for report at a later date. Al
dermen Kuhn and Patton, the other
council members on the committee,
realised that they would be unable
to agree with Dancy and Fire Chlel
Hutton and that the committee
would be hopelessly deadlocked, so
they asked that the controversy be
thrown back on the council ana ae
elded at once. Kuhn moved that the
council go Into recess to await the
committee's report.
When the committee reported
back Dancy stated Uiat It could not
agree, so had decided to throw th
decision back on the council He said
that he and the file chief were still
In favor of the Seagraves machine
as they had been two weeks pre
vlounly, this being the lowest bidder
for the type of punijwr they desired,
the bid being $11,500.
Alderman Patton said that he
feared that the fire department was
becoming top-heavy with equipment
and tliat for a time the city had
gone hog wild on buying fire en
gines. There was a pumper lor ev
ery 6000 persons in the city, he said
On all three ballots the aldermen
voted for the Mack, American La
France and Seagraves pumpers, the
Arens-Fox. Peter Plrsch and Howe
machines falling to get any votes.
On the first ballot the Mack got five,
the American La France five and
the Seagraves two votes, one mem
ber not voting. On the second ballot
the result was the same. On the
third the Mack got seven, the Am
erican La France three and the Sea
graves three.
The price of the Mack chosen was
$13,390, but by leaving out the wa
ter tank attachment It Is cut $500
to $12,850. The price of the Sea
graves voted on was $11,500, and the
American La France $13,500.
The result of the vote leaves the
mayor and the city recorder In mak
ing the contract free to buy either a
centrifugal or a rotary gear machine
an the prices are the same. It Is

understood a centrifugal type will
be chosen.
When Alderman Daney's resolu
tion tor transfer of $20,000 from the
(ire tax fund to the maintenance
fund was Introduced City Attorney
Trindle was prepared with an opin
ion as to the legality of the transfer,
basing it on the state budget law
The opinion was questioned by Al
derman Kowlti, and Trindle ex
plained that the next budget would
have to take care of the reimburse
ment, and he recommended that the
chaiter be amended to make the tax
fund applicable to maintenance.
Alderman O'ilara was of the opin
ion that it was unconstitutional to
transfer money from a special to a
general fund. However, no one voted
against the resolution. Preceding the
vote Dancy declared that It would
be necessary, without question, to
close the outside stations If the
transfer were not made
MAYOfSVETO
NOT SUSTAINED
The city council Monday night re
fused to sustain Mayor Gregory's
veto of tlie firecracker ordinance,
passing the measure over his veto
by a unanimous vote.
The ordinance was first drawn to
prohibit the shooting of firecrackers
and other noise-making devices any
where In the city limits. But as it
passed two weeks ago It applies only
to fire zone No. 1, which is the
downtown business district.
The mayor vetoed the measure for
the reason that It was limited In Its
application.
One ordinance bill of more than
ordinary interest was Introduced. It
would provide for the abatement of
nuisances caused by barking dog;,
bawling cows or any ether noisy ani
mals within the city limits. It will
be voted on at the next meeting.
The city planning and zoning
commission submitted a recommen
dation that a stop sign be Installed
on Waverly street at Court. It was
referred to the police committee.
The 6treet committee sent hi a rec
ommendation that a certain amount
of parking be done away with on
Waverly and Twellth streets to get
away from the traffic danger in that

Maylbe that's putm' It a I
too thick . . .
We were down in the older part of town the other day seein' how quiet and peace
ful things looked and buyin" us a pair of Sunday shoes just to show the boys on
Main street that we still wear em'. One of the bosses just to be sociable came over
to where the boy was puttin' a five dollar sltbe on our best foot (we always put
our best foot forward you know.
Well, as we started to say, the boss
wanted to make us feel good before taxin' us a couple of extra dollars for our
shoes so he said how's business down at the Market? We didn't mind that so
much (notwithstanding the fact that he's the only person in Marion and Polk
counties that doesn't know that business at the Market is growing by leaps and
bounds), we answered in our best behaved manner by tellin' him it was good (no
not our manner, our business is good we said.) We could tell by his looks that he
thought we were stretching things you know one of those doubtin' Thomasas
looks he gave us just to let us know that we wasn't kiddin' him any
And boy how we laid'er on then
'And when-we layer on we lay it on planty we told him that we sell more grocer
ies at the Market than all the chain stores in town and just to be friendly with
the other stores we said yes and you can pick out any three other stores and
throw them in for good measure and our sales would be morin' all of 'em togeth
er. But Folks that's the way we do things do 'em right that's our motto and
that's a doggone good motto too isn't it?
