(Concluded on page 8, column 4) FAIR TO CONTINUE IF CITY PAYS FOR WATER (Continued from page 1) buildings and institutions, provided that the cost of water supply should be reduced accordingly. The reduc tion made by the power company amounts to about two third of the average annual bill for the fair grounds. Immediately following the con ference with the governor Gehlhar and his committee called in repre sentatives of the Salem chamber of commerce to see what coald be done about reducing the cost of water to the fair management, and it was suggested that the city be requested to flate rate charge of $38 a month for stand-by service the vear around for lire protection, inasmuch as the iatr grounds are entirely within the city limits. Chamber of commerce repre sentatives were advised that hold ing of the fair this year now hinges entirely upon the making of arrangements to relieve the fair of two thirds of the past water service charge. This afternoon further conference was being held between Gehlhar and his commit tee. Mayor Gregory. Alderman Dancy, chairman of the city coun cil's fire and water committee, and Douglas McKay, president of the lhamber of commerce, aa well as other representatives of the cham ber. It was pointed out at the morn ing conference that it would cost the city about $450 a year to absorb the cost of the stand-by fire pro tection service for water for the fairgrounds, and that provding such fire protection waa a proper func tion of the city. Gehlhar' plana for holding the fair thla year embody re duct tons in expenses from the normal of former years of more than $20,000, he an nounced, and said that the tenta tive program called for a larger number of free attractions and free admission for all events. Re ductions in personnel and reduced salaries and wages are also part of the plan, and assurances have been given that the city of Salem will provide fire protection equip ment and officers for policing the grounds.

Do not be mislead this Is equal to any I work in the City at Any Prica SCHOOL BUS ROUTE CHANGES GET HEARING With a lull In the legal proceed ings involving validity of the high school tuition and trans por tat am taxes the district boundary board at 10 o'clock Wednesday morning will hear any changes that might be proposed for transportation routes in the north end and also for the Mill City and Gates schools. The schools to have an inning are Scotts Mills. Bliverton. Woodburn, Hubbard, Gervals and St. PauL While Hubbard and St. Paul have transported no pupils they are pot on the list so as to be given an opportunity for a hearing If any change is contemplated. The meet ing ia to be for only board or their representatives and Is not slated as a general free for all. Other districts will have their inning a little later. Most of the high schols of the county already have expressed sat isfaction with their routes, stated County Superintendent Pulkerson. but the meeting is held to give any of them a chance to suggest chang es which experience might have indicated would be advisable. The boundary board realizes that with the possibility of further court action being just around the corner in the shape of an appeal from Judge Lewelling's ruling holding the tuition law constitutional, neverthe less under the law maps must be approved by July 15 Consequently tlie board will hold its meeting and while not guaranteeing to any dis trict that It will have a transpor tation route it will follow provi sions of the law by laying out the routes. If the validity of the law is upheld then the routes will stand. If it is overturned then no harm has been done and the whole thing will be in the discard anyway. All routes had maps on file last year and it is thought in the main these will simply be reaffirmed at Wed nesday's meeting. FAVORABLE REPORTS BY ROAD VIEWERS Viewers reports on a number of county roods just filed with the county court are all favorable to . proceeding with their improvement tills year.
