Pacific coast, has a well on Madi son street between 11th and 12th that is 12 inches in diameter, 275 feet deep and flows 1000 gallons a minute by test. Portland has about 96 water users having wells similar to those de scribed above who do not use Bull Run water. All the golf courses and most slaughter houses use well water, Strasser said. Los Angeles, notwithstanding the millions of dol lars spent there to get mountain water, has a large number oi wens. Strasser considers tne aaiem Municipal airport an excellent lo cation for a city well. A site on the airport has been suggested locally for the reason It would have purchase cost attached and would cut down expense to some extent. The well could be built with pump below ground so it would not ln- terlere with tne landing oi air planes, i Strasser looked at the well at tne State Industrial School for Girls It is a successful well but his opin ion was that the center of the val ley southeast ot Salem would give better flow. rjallas Three open and one sec ret indictments were returned oy the Polk county grand Jury which met Thursday.
