NEW TELEPHONE
FRANCHISE UP
The sum -of $120,000 for the city
of Salem over a period of 20 years
is estimated to accrue from a new
franchise for the Pacific Telephone
& Telegraph company provided for
in an ordinanoe bill introduced at
the city council session last night.
In lieu of the flat $1100 a year
provided in the old franchise that
expired about June 1 the new fran
chise provides for a 2 per cent
gross earnings tax applying to local
business. Experts of the company
calculate that over the 20-year per
iod the franchise is to run the re-
turn to the city will average $6000
a year. During the earlier years of
tne period it is estimated the reve
nue will be $4000 or $5000 a year,
according to Alderman David
O'Hara of the utilities committee.
A new franchise bill affecting
the Western Union Telegraph com
pany which also was to come In last
night failed to appear because of
the absence or Alderman S. A.
Hughes, chariman of the utilities
committee. This also has the 2 per
cent gross earnings provision.

RADIO SET ON
Although he was a tramp on the
road, a recent transient at Hotel de
Minto wasn't -going to be deprived
of music, or the oily news Hashes,
or Joe Penner's gags, so he carried
his radio set right along with him.
He had made it himself, and had It
equipped with earphones and a de
vice to be held in the hand as arrl
aerial. It worked, too, and the tran
sient kept it going most -of the time:
while he was a guest of tne hotel.
The load at the hotel was heavier
during May than it has been in any
previous month, according to Super
visor R. It. Boardman. xnis is at
tributed to the large number of sea.
sonal workers coming in. The re
ported shortage of berry pickers in
this district, puDusnea in newspa
pers throughout the coast, brought
In many transients, out tne policy
of the transient bureau is to give
this work to local men as far as pos.
sible.
The total number of men at the
hotel in May was 779 and about 8000
meals were served. The hotel is now
equipped with a hospital room and
140 were given lirst aid alio meaicai
attention. From four to eight men
are receiving dootor's attention at
all times. One hospital case was that
of a youth of 18 who, in jumping
from a freight tram, landed on a
flat car and punctured his body in
the region of the liver.
Another new adjunct of Hotel de
Minto is a germicide machine and
bug killer where the clothing of all
men who come in Is disinfected. The
hotelhas 35 beds now, all equipped
with "sheets, blankets and mattress-1
es. These were made by the women's
division of the SERA as a relief
project. ;
The men who have been employed
in the municipal auto park have the
place in fine shape. All old trees
have been cut out,- stream beds
cleared and the site of the swim
ming pool that was projected some
years ago has been filled and will
be planted to grass seed. A small
Dark belonging to tne saiem Dea
coness hospital has been improved
by the crews, landscaped and a new
fence added.
Boardman reports that two auto-.
mobile loads of magazines have
been sent recently to the transient
camp at Molalla.

of politics. You -can tell the peo
ple." The cases of two .Son Francisco
