FIRE HAZARDS AT
SCHOOL REMOVED
A number of fire hazards have
been removed from the Salem high
school building, according to a re
port made by officals following an
Inspection made on June 14. The
inspection was made by Fire Chief
Harry Hut ton, Captain B. O.
Faught, inspector lor the city, E.
A. Taylor, representing the state
fire marshal's office, E. C. Busline II,
city building inspector, and Alder
man O. A. Olson, chairman of the
fire and water committee of the
city council.
The improvements made were
removal of a gas meter from the
fan room, installation of a metal
shoot fire escape and two exits
from the gymnasium, installation oi
a new fire alarm system, a change
in the method of egress to the fire
escape from the assembly room,
and the removal of large supplies
of dangerous acids from the lab
oratory. Improvements which the inspec
tors hope still to see made at the
high school building are a more
simple method of reaching the fire
escape from the girls' restrictive
room and band room, and removal
of the heating plant from the main
building to a detached building.
J. M. Devers, attorney for the
state highway department, today
telegraphed from Washnlgton, urg
ing immediate preparation of the
design and other information in
connection with the proposed five
new bridges which it is proposed to
construct on the Oregon coast high
way with funds obtained under the
federal public works bill.
Thirty per cent or the cost of the
bridges would be obtained through
a direct grant while the remaining
70 per cent would be borrowed
from the government. The loan
would be repaid from tolls. The
cost of the bridges was estimated at
$3,400,000.
Plans for these bridges must be
approved by the war department for
the reason that they will span
navigable streams.

REGISTRATION FOR
Y ANNUAL OUTING
Registration for the annual out
ing of boys of the Salem Y.M.C.A.
July 25-Aug. 3 at Oceanside, Tilla
mook county, is under way. Just 13
boys have signed on the dotted line
although many more are known to
be making their plans so that they
may take part in the annual outing.
Those having signed are Frank L.
Page, Thomas Roen, Jr., George Al
exander, Jr., George Arbuckle, Jr.,
"Doug" Chambers, Richard Cham
bers, D. Compton. Gordon Krueger,
Bob Pound, Bill Shlnn, James Spit
ler, Wm. Laughlin and Dale Krue
ger, Dwlght Adams and Gus Moore,
young men popular with the young
sters by reason of their activities at
the local association building over a
period of years, will be in charge of
the camp this year, while "Pop"
Crary will again furnish the meals.
Prof. DuBols, naturalist of Portland,
will teach the boys of birds, flowers
and other things.
Although the younger and older
boys will be in camp during the
same period this year, they will be
divided into two sections while at
Oceanside, each group having its
own particular activities.
40 PERCENT OF TAX
ROLL COLLECTED
Figures prepared by Sam Butler,
deputy tax colector, for the state
tax commission, show that shortly
after the middle of the month an
proximately 40 per cent of the first
half of the county's tax roll had
been collected. 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.

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.

Events Cut Out Of
July 4 Celebration
With all competitive rodeo events eliminated to orevent
unfair competition with the Molalla Buckaroo, to be held on
the same dates, Salem's Fourth of July celebration sponsored
ay the tato (air management, Ed
Wright, rodeo promoter, and Capital
post o( the American Legion will be
held as scheduled on July 2-3-4, It
Is announced following a conference
between Max Oehlhar, director of
the state fair, and Claude McKen
noy, chairman of the Legion cele
bration committee, and members of
the board of directors of the Mo
lalla show yesterday afternoon.
Led by Mayor J, W. Avlson the
Buckaroo committee came to Salem
on Monday to lay before Governor
Meier and Gehlhar a protest
against the state fair's participa
tion in a celebration in competition
with their established annual show.
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.
A few districts voted Monday in
favor of board candidates who were
pledged to continue bus transpor
tation and It is expected these sec
tions will arrange to transport their
high school students by groups.

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. Hall.
