possible use of an unoccupied
hotel at Marshfield, Ore., as a

Resolution Aimed at
Sulphur Nuisance
Referred to the committee on health and sanitation of the
city council last night was a resolution introduced by Alderman
Charles H. Heltzel, intended to compel the Oregon Pulp & Paper
company to eliminate the sul
phur fumes and cinder nui
sances. The resolution, if finally
adopted by the council, will
authorize the city attorney to
take such action against the
company as seems appropriate.
City Attorney Lawrence N.
Brown suggested that an injunc
tion would be the best method.
"I would not bring up this
mailer if only a few persons
were affected by these nuis
ances, or if only a few dozen or
a few hundred were," said Al
derman Heltzel. "But I venture
to say that thousands are suf
fering from them. I realize that
the paper mill is a great bene
fit to Salem, and we are all
proud that we have the indus
try here. But there is no doubt
that these fumes cause damage
to the health of many people.
It's too bad they can't be bot
tled up and sent to Japan where
they would do some good."
Alderman M. E. Gadwa mov
ed that the resolution 'be i
ferred to the proper committee,
and Alderman Frank P. Mar
shall seconded the motion on
condition that the city recorder
be directed to write to the
League of Oregon Cities and
find out what is being done in
other cities having paper mills.
This condition was approved
and the mayor referred the reso
lution to the committee on
health and sanitation.
Military Bill Pnsscd
Ordinance bills passed by the
council last night included one
being adopted by other cities in
military areas which empowers
the cities to full enforcement of
regulations pertaining to war
time protection. It applies es
pecially to the dimout regula
tion, and a model for the ordi
nance was furnished by United
States Attorney Carl Donaugh
of Portland. The bill prohibit
ing the deposit of grass, tree
limbs and other debris in the
gutter channels of the city
streets was passed, and also a
bill regulating the movement of
logs, poles and pilings on the
streets. This requires a permit
from the city engineer and pro
vides for a license fee of $1 for
from one to 60 days and $5 for
from 60 days to one year.
Pay ot street department em
ployes who work on an hourly
basis was -fixed at a minimum
of 68 cents an hour dating from
September 1 by adoption of
resolution. It mnkes tho pay the

same rate as now paid those
working on a six-day basis.
A short street east of 22nd and
south of Mission was given the
name Ford, since it is really an
extension of the existing Ford
street.
By transferring the necessary
money from the emergency fund
to the dog pound fund the po
lice department was authorized
to buy a second-hand pick-up
truck for the poundmastor ser
vice. New Pumper Possible ."
On motion of Alderman Ross
Goodman, the city recorder was
directed to call for bids on
750-gallon pumper for the fire
department. If bids are satisfac
tory there is a possibility the old
pumper damaged in recent acci
dent, may be turned in on a new
one. Alderman Goodman re
ported that replacement of parts
alone on the damaged pumper
would cost $1500, while labor
and repair of damage to the mo
tor and other damage would run
the cost much higher.
A resolution of condolence on
the death of Mrs. L. F. LeGarie
was adopted and will be sent
to Alderman LeGarie.
Referred to the city attorney
was a petition complaining
about youthful swimmers in
North Mill creek between 21st
and 23rd streets, who keep peo
ple awake at night and make in
solent replies to anyone . at
tempting to quiet them.
The council authorized the
ways and means committee to
employ an auditor to make the
usual audit for the fiscal year
ending June 30.
Russell Maw, who left the po
sition of poundmaster to enter
the army, sent a letter to the
council thanking the body for
its cooperation with him and ex
pressing hope that the relation
can be renewed later.
Robert Wayne Johnson, who
left the fire department to join
the navy, was granted leave
with the privilege of resuming
his fire department position af
ter the war.
Carnival Will
Raise Uniform Fund
Silverton An indoor carnival
and dance is being planned by
Co. A, 12th battalion of the local
Oregon state guard unit, to raise
funds with which to purchase
caps and uniforms for its mem
bers. The affair will be held at

tember 12. There will be danc
ing and fun for everyone. Games

Service Men
Studied Here
Spending two days in Salem
investigating the city's possible
recreation facilities for service
men stationed in this area are
Faber Stevenson, Oregon and
Washington USO regional di
rector, Harry Stoops, regional
recreation representative of the
division of recreation of the fed
eral government for the Pacific
coast, and Donald T. Orput from
the Portland office of the divi
sion of recreation.
The group has been visiting
the towns in the area surround
ing Camp Adair and acquainting
themselves with the problems
faced by thsee towns.
They have been studying the
possible need of USO service at
Monmouth and are considering
the possibility of making the
Monmouth unit an extension of
the Salem center under the di
rection of Robert R. Boardman,
director of the Salem center.
After considering the recrea
tion problems of the various
communities the men suggested
that the three towns of Salem,
Corvallis and Albany arrange to
stagger their large events plan
ned for the entertainment of
servicemen, so that there will be
no conflict. Salem is the first
of the three to open its center
though all of the three have been
staffed. A portion of the Cor
vallis building will be completed
and put to use next week.
