S NUISANCE ON
STATE STREET
WILL BE CURBED
Motorists who lor years have to
erated the nuisance of an exceed'
lngly high curb on the south side of
State street between Commercial
and Liberty, which had put many
a front bumper out of Joint, are to
be relieved. The city council last
night, on motion of Alderman Cuy-
ler Van Fatten, authorized the con
structlon of a step along, the curb
line which will make the parking of
cars more convenient.
In the same operation the coun
ell authorized the street commls.
sloner to fill in any driveways across
sidewalks that are no longer in
use, and to remove the old hitch'
lng ring that is anchored in the
sidewalk on South Commercial
street near the former Journal
building.
Alderman Paul Hendricks believed
the ring dated back to the days
when the chief of police rode
horse, and that the chief tied his
mount to the ring. Another Alder.
man, however, believed the ring was
used by Frank Shuler, saddler and
harness man, to tie a wooden horse
to. Anyway, the relic Is to be re.
moved.
The Hollywood Community club
sent a communication to the coun
cil approving the deal arranged
with the Oregon-Washington Water
Service company for purchase of the
water works.
The council voted to reimburse
Chief of Police Frank Minto for an
expense of $100 on account of the
recent course of instruction given
police officers.
Frank Davey, property owner on
Leslie street, questioned the wisdom
of the council In approving a change
In set-back lines on that street, be
tween High and Liberty, to acco
modate a garage being built .by
Chandler Brown. The reason for
asking the change is that the gar
age is necessarily located on a hill
side and cannot, without difficulty,
be set back the regulation 10 feet
from the property line abutting the
street. The change Is provided for
In an ordinance Introduced last
night.
Two ordinance bills were put In
for refunding Bancroft bonds. One
calls for $173,000 and the other
$29,000. The former was put through
three readings and passed.
A communication from Dan J,
Fry requested deepening of sewer
lines at the location of the new
$80,000 warehouse In the Trade and
Front street district. The present
depth Is not enough to accomodate
the building. The change was au
thorized. An ordinance bill ' that would
eliminate the printing , of voters1
pamphlets prior to city elections
was killed by Indefinite postpone
ment.
The council made provision for
vacations for the radio operators
or the police department. During
the rest of the year they are to
have two days off a month and a
week's vacation In addition.

dened beast attacked Reed when
the trainer went forward to calm
him.
The trainer ran to a pole In the
center of the grounds, and attempt
ed to climb out of reach of the en
raged bull. He reached the pole too
late, however, for the beast struck
at him with a tusk and pierced him
through the shoulder.
The elephant then grabbed the
helpless victim In his trunk, threw
him to the ground and gored him.
Before attendants subdued him, the
lumbering animal had battered
Reed with his trunk and trampled
on the trainers unconscious form.
Reed died at a Covina hospital a
short time later. Physicians said his
scalp had been torn off and tha!

Had nearly disemboweled him.
Circus officials were unable to ex

Reed was engaged by the circus

an experienced "elephant man" ac
cording to his fellow trainers and
had worked with the beasts for
years.

HOT WORDS AS
TRAFFIC CODE
IS DISCUSSED
Hot words were exchanged at the
city council meeting last night over
Alderman Cuyler Van Patten's traf
flc code bill. Van Patten accused
Alderman Fred A. Williams, chair
man of the ordinance committee, of
holding back the bill deliberately,
and termed as disgraceful a hear
ing given the bill a week ago Mon
day night.
The bill has been pending many
weeks. When Williams last night
asked for two more weeks in which
to consider the bill Van Patten
made his attack and questioned
Williams' motives.
"Tliis Is the third time he has
asked for delay," Van Fatten said,
"and there is no excuse for it.
think Alderman Williams is holding
it up for no good reason. Only to
day two truck men hinted that they
had been asked to protest the bill.
The attempted hearing given the
bill two weeks ago was an absolute
farce."
Van Patten moved that the bill be
withdrawn from the ordinance com
mittee and placed on final passage,
any necessary amendments to be
taken care of at another time.
"i don't like Alderman Van Pat
ten's insinuations," Williams said
"I don't like to call a man a liar,
bat I am capable of doing that."
Williams gave as one reason for the
delay the recent automobile acci
dent in which he received eye in
juries. Van Patten's motion carried, but
after discussion, and on account of
the late hour and the length of the
bill, Alderman Walter Fuhrer mov
ed that it be made a special order,
together with proposed amend
ments, at 8 o'clock next Monday
night when the council Is to meet
in adjourned session. This prevailed.
As a parting shot Van Patten
said:
"I want to say further about the
public hearing last Monday night
tnat Dotn the hearing and the con
duct of Alderman Williams were
absolutely disgraceful. He tried in
every way to make a Joke of the
Dill."

COUNCIL VOTES
NOT TO ASK FOR
DISPOSAL LOAN
The city council last night defi
nitely killed for the present the
proposal to apply for a public
works administration loan for a
sewage disposal plant in Salem.
A letter from C. C. Hockley, state
engineer for the PWA, was read,
staling that the city must imme
diately sign a previously suomitted
agreement with the PWA or the of
fered loan of $366,000 would be re
scinded. He asked to be Informed as
to the cause of delay.
On motion of Alderman Walter
Fuhrer a resolution embodying the
agreement and authorizing the city
authorities to sign It was taken
from the table for action one way or
the other. The resolution was tabled
two weeks ago. Under the terms of
the agreement $277,000 of the
amount would have been a loan and
$83,000 a grant.
Alderman Fred A. Williams spoke
against it, declaring it unjust to ex
pect Salem to Incur the Indebted
ness when other cities along the
Willamette river were not doing
likewise. Alderman Van Patten was
against It at present, and Alderman
E. B. Perrine said he found most
people with whom he had spoken
opposed to it. One of the objections
to the move was that maintenance
of the plant would be by assess
ment on the people.
Alderman Fuhrer was for adop
tion of the resolution, but only Al
derman Minto stood with him. All
the others voted to kill It. '
In informing the PWA of the
council's decision the mayor was in
structed, on motion of Van Patten,
to explain that Salem is the only
city using the river for sewage dis
posal that has a disposal plant un
der consideration, and that in the
future when other cities have sim
ilar projects Salem will be willing
to cooperate.
