This is about a 5 per cent better showing than last year when 35 per cent had been col lected at about the same time. But Deputy Butler stated it must be remembered tnat this years roil is considerably smaller than was last year's roll, so the showing is not so much different with everything taken into consideration. He stated that his computation showed that the collections up to the time his check was made amounted to about $100,000 less than half of the total roll, which made the collection as near 40 per cent of the total roll as could be easily figured.

V ' rWORMAHCES AT 2 I'll pTwL RESERVED AND ADMISSION AT CENTRAL PHARMACY, 410 STATE ST. CARSON TALKS ON PHILIPPINES Independence to the Philippines means that whatever commercial activity they have will be ruined unless they have free access to the ports of the United States, Joseph K. Carson, Jr., mayor-elect of Port land, told the Rotary club Wed nesday noon. Withdrawal of the American fleet or soldiers leaves the acquisition of the islands open to some Oriental power, he said. The Philippines want full protec tion of the united states with its own regulation ot internal affairs. In support of his statements, Car son declared that the peso is the only coin in the Orient that has not depreciated in value because it was backed by the government of the United States. Turning to world affairs and. problems, Carson declared that a practical application of the prin ciples of the league of nations de pends upon recognition of racial equality, this not to be construed as meaning inter-marriage of races, but more along economic lines. To bring faith back to the world Carson urged that payment of debts should be accepted In whatever amounts or commodities available and to discontinue loans to foreign nations, holding that this imperils the peace and security of the na tional as has followed the loans of international bankers, at high rates of interest and through cor rupt public officials.

DISTRICTS PROVIDE TRANSPORTATION School districts which wish to provide group transportation for pupils attending high school will not be effected by the recent elec tion which resulted in a majority of the voters registering opposition to the bus transportation law, Mrs. Mary L. Pulkerson, county school superintendent announced today af ter taking the matter up with the state department of education. It was the general impression, Mrs. Pulkerson stated, that Monday's election would result in the com plete abandonment of bus trans portation. However, under an act passed In 1931, it was provided that where individual districts wished to transport students by groups, they could do so under regular pro cedure. In this caae the county would pay the tuition while the taxpayers of the district would take care of the transportation cost.

BREIER RENEW EFFORT WATER SYSTEM Operating In the belief that the decision of the state supreme court yesterday affirming the validity of the municipal water bonds voted by the people of Salem 16 months ago will terminate the long drawn out litigation which has resulted, Mayor Douglas McKay, City Attorney Kow Itz and members of the council util ities committee were seeking today to arrange a conference to consider steps to be taken to complete acqui sition of a municipal water system. They were, however, cognizant of the fact that the Oregon-Washington Water Service company will probably attempt to secure a re hearing of the bond case, appeal It to the United States supreme court or push a suit already pending in the federal district court to declare the charter amendment and bonds Invalid. City officials predicted that the federal courts would refuse to take jurisdiction after the decision of the state supreme court, but admitted that further delay is in prospect while this question Is being threshed out in the courts. The city Is preparing to apply for a federal public works loan of $, 000,000, secured by bonds authorised by the charter amendment, with which to acquire the local system of the Oregon-Washington company and to oonstruct a supply system to bring water In from the Little North Fork of the Santiam river. Negotiations with the company for purchase of the system is Indi cated as the city's first step. The company has already refused an of fer based on the tMS.OOO appraised value of the properties fixed by the city's engineers. Monday night the council by resolution requested the state public utilities commissioner to make an appraisal of the plant here which. It has been indicated, will be made the basis of condem nation proceedings If the city Is un able to negotiate a purchase. Etta P. Hall has been named ad ministratrix of the $3800 estate of Elmer N.
