Water System
Has Attention
Silverton In the absence of
Rholin Cooley, president, Dr. P.
A. Loar, vice president, was in
charge of the week's meeting of
the city planning commission,
an advisory body for the city
council, mayor and city mana
ger. Since the overwhelming de
feat by vote of the people at a
recent election concerning the
building of a concrete dam for
the Silverton water system fur
ther up the Abiqua than the
dam that had gone out with
flood waters, the members of
the council have asked the plan
ning commission to submit re
commendations from "every an
gle of dam and labor informa
tion as to type, costs, etc.," that
the water system may be im
proved locally.
The outstanding feature of
the commission meeting, accord
ing to Dr. P. A. Loar, was the
recommended request that the
city council furnish funds witli
which members of the commis
sion can measure the now ot
water by daily gallons at the
stream's lowest level.
The request is to be presented
to the members of the council
at the Monday, July 11, meet
ing.
Dr. Loar said that Barr and
Cunningham, engineers, had on
file a report of the Abiqua flow
at low level, taken in 1043, and
the present request was to as
certain if the same flow of three
million gallons daily, still re
gistered, In spite of timber be
ing cut on the water-sheds.
The vote of the people appears
to be opposed by the council and
commission members in major
ity.
Present commission members
are: Rholin Cooley, Dr. P. A.
Loar, Llllie Larson, I. B. Alfred,
Frank Porter, Norman Naegeli
and S. Parzy Rose.
Dr. Loar fnvors unbiased pub
licity on the activities of the
members of the commission in
order that the taxpayer is bet
ter informed as to the duties as
advisors for the aldermen.

Mt. Angel Flax
Growers Eled
Mt. Angel At a meeting of
the Mt. Angel Flax Growers as
sociation the annual election of
officers was held with Albert
Boschler and Albert Diehl elect
ed directors for the next year.
The financial report was read
and discussed by the auditor
William G. Stacey of Salem.
Don Fishier of corvallis, with
the Federal Department of Agri
culture, stressed the importance
of delivery of flax to the pro
cessing plants in the best condi
tion possible. He stated that
flax; should be pulled before it
is too ripe, the root ends be as
even as possible, the bundles
well tied, and the flax not dis
colored by rain. Fishier warned
against the use of nitrogen on
flax grounds, though it stimu
lates growth of the plant, It
will burn and Is very harmful
to the fibre.
Elton G. Nelson of the feder
al department of agriculture,
Washington, D.C., spoke of his
travels in France, India, Eng
land, Belgium, and Scotland, and
of the flax conditions in these
countries. He stated that high
quality fiber is still in demand.

the local plant gave statistics on
the - activities here, and com
mented on the genera! market
conditions. Immediately after
the membership meeting the
Board of Directors held their
organization meeting Joseph
Obersinner was elected as pres
ident and Albert Diehl as vice
president of the board.
Board Rescinds
Minimum Price
The Oregon Cane Fruits Con
trol board has rescinded its 8
cent a pound minimum price es
tablished June 15 on loganber
ries, boysenberries and young
berries and has in lieu thereof
eliminated the establishment of
any minimum price on such ber
ries sold in 1949.
The announcement of the ac
tion carries the explanation
from the board that It "does not
want to take part in the naming
of a low and unreasonable
price."
The board at the same time
announced that no control board
assessment will be made this
season on loganberries, young
berries or boysenberries.
A blackberry price will be
named at a later date, said the
board's official announcement,
a copy of which is being sent to
each buyer of cane berries.
Following the board's mid
month announcement of an 8
cent minimum price on logan
berries, youngberries and boy
senberries processors indicated
they would pay a 6-cent price.
Loganberries already were com
ing in and the others getting
started and it looked like an
impasse until the latest board
action.
