Failing to Pay
In the last year a slight In
crease has been observed in the
number of persons who become
delinquent in payment of water
bills, the city water office re
ported today.
The reason is believed to be
change in economic conditions,
in some cases lack of employ
ment, although that condition
has not become serious. A per
centage of delinquencies is
simply negligence on the part
of the water user.
Delinquencies are those cases
that lapse for a period of 90
days. Notices are sent to the
consumer after that period, and
if payment is not made in 10
days a field man is sent to in
vestigate, and a cutting off of
the service may follow.
For the month of May there
were 218 delinquencies out of
10,000 accounts. All paid up but
37 notices were sent. For last
January the total was 231, of
whom all but paid without a call
by the field man.

"As for spending money to
get away from vibration a few
times each day," said Corbett,
"I think money can be spent to
much better advantage."
Hopkins said that if tunnel
ing were attempted on 12th wa
ter probably would be encoun
tered at four or five feet. He
said that on account of greater
grade it probably would be nec
essary to double-head trains
through the tunnel, and that vi
bration would be Increased.
Suggestions that the main
line be moved farther east was
not considered practical by the
railroad men, but that idea has
largely been dropped also by the
Salem officials and planners.
River Route Spurned
Corbett and Hopkins had lit
tle to say about a suggestion of
fered mainly by Mayor Robert
L. Elf strom that the main line
be brought to Water street and
carried south to Albany by way
of the existing Oregon Electric
line. Hedda Swart, county engi
neer and chairman of the city
planning and zoning commis
sion, was doubtful of this be
cause of sliding soil formation
south of the city.
One important angle to be
considered in any suggestions for
for changing the location of the
main line is the company's in
vestment in its 12th street yards.
The investment there is upward
of $2,000,000, Hopkins said, and
Corbett added that about $300
000 had been spent since the
war.
The possibility of removing
the company's west side line
from Union street and taking
the traffic to the main line by
way of Front and Trade streets
got no favorable reaction from
the railroad men.
Alderman Albert H. Gllle
criticised the stopping of trains
on street crossings because of
the holding up of street traffic
and the possible blocking of fire
equipment.
To Stop Traffic Hold-ups
Corbett advised that If
Southern Pacific crews were
holding up street traffic that
condition would be stopped if
the company wore notified.
"But we would like to be ad
vised immediately," he said
"and not have It wait until
meeting like this."
The city was represented by
J. N. Chambers, chairman of
the long-range pUnnuis com
mission; C. A. Sprague. George
Putnam, W. W. Chadwicat, May
or Elfstrom, City Manager J. L
Franzen, and Hedda Swart, all
members of the planning com
mission; C. A. McClure, com
mission engineer; and Albert
Gille, city council member. The
state was represented by R. H
Baldock, state highway engi
neer.
City representatives were In
clined to agree with 'the lug
gestlon that the expense of any
project undertaken should be
shared by the railroad company.
the city and the state.
To Move Logs Log hauling
permits have been granted by
the county court to Welter Log

H. Wilson, Detroit, who also Is
permitted to mova piling.
The results of the meeting, he
added, "reveal the correctness of
the policies this government has
been following in our foreign
affairs.
"The results again underline
the necessity of pursuing these
policies with calmness and de
termination, as the only sure
road to the establishment of con
ditions in the world where peace
and freedom can live and endure."
Administration 1 ea d e r s are
known to have been concerned
during the four weeks Acheson
was in Paris about the congres
sional timetable for action on
the pact and the program to re
arm western Europe.

For this reason it was expect
ed that Acheson would carry
forward the theme of the presi

Tomorrow he will meet with
