CAB to Hear All Evidence
Offered on Salem Airport
All Interested parties will have an opportunity of presenting
evidence in support of United Air Lines service in Salem and that
evidence will be carefully weighed by the civil aeronautics board.

full public hearing at which
time all interested parties -.will

ing evidence in support of a

The proposal for substitution

Musgrave Talks
On City Merger
If West Salem and Salem do
not merge, according to Mayor
Walter Musgrave, the people of
West Salem will have to bear a
sewer rental assessment of $1.25
a month plus an additional 3
cents per 100 cubic feet for all
water in excess of 500 cubic feet.
The treatment plant is esti
mated by engineers' to cost
$120,000, not counting industrial
waste. In would cost an esti
mated $102,000 to operate it ov
er a period of 25 years.
To finance this total of $222,-
000 it would be necessary to is
sue bonds, and retire the bonds
by the sewer rental charge,
which on the $1.25 a month bas-
would raise an estimated
$17,000 a year.
However, if the two cities are
merged West Salem will auto
matically come under Salem's
sewer rental rate of 65 cents a
month for home owners, with
industries on a metered basis,
West Salem votes on the mer
ger July 26. The subject in all
its angles will be discussed at
another public meeting next
Friday night. Among those at
tending will be a representative
of the state sanitary authority.
Other things involved in the
merger question are city wa
ter, fire protection and insurance
rates. Insurance rates in West
Salem are in Class 7. and in Sa
lem Class 5. Merger, it is said,
will mean a reduction of about!
20 percent to householders.
Lions Open
'49 Convention
New York. July 18 (P) Dele
gates from 26 countries, many
of them ; in colorful costumes,
today formally opened the 32nd
annual convention of Lions in
ternational. They heard Gov. Thomas E.
Dewey urge that western Europe
be made into one large area for
the free exchange of goods and
services as in the United States.
Admiral W. H. P. Blandy.
commander-in-chief of the At
lantic fleet, told the delegates
that "the atom bomb will not
destroy civilization."
Registrations for the five-day
convention indicated an attend
ance of at least 30,000 delegates.
Families, in many instances, ac
company the delegates to Lions
conventions and the program in
eludes special entertainment fea
tures for the women and chil
dren.
One of the colorful numbers
on today's program was the an
nual presentation of flags of all
26 countries in which there are
Lions clubs, with young women
dressed in native costumes rep
resenting each country.
Governor Dewey, in his ad
dress of welcome, said it was
important that the senate, "with
real enthusiasm." ratify the
North Atlantic treaty.
Admiral Blandy, speaking on
the subject "Is the Atom Bomb
Overrated?" drew these four
main conclusions in his sum
mary: "I. The statement that 'there
is no defense against the atom
bomb' is an exaggeration.
"2. The atom bomb will not
destroy civilization,
"3. The atom bomb Is a ma
jor deterrent to war: but it will
not retain this distinction in
definitely. "4. The atom bomb is an im
mensely potent engine of de
struction: but it is not the ab
solute weapon of decision."

Wallowa Lakes
Fishing Good
Snow-filled canyons still pre
vent making the circuit of the
upper lakes in the Wallowa dis
trict but fishing is highly satis
factory, according to Carl W.
Wood, 570 Judson, Salem repre
sentative of the Mutual Life In
surance company of New York,
who returned over the week-end
from a trip to that area with
five other insurance men.
The group made its base camp
at Wallowa lake and made a two
day packhorse trip to the upper
lakes, being the first party in
that area this season. There are
some mosquitos and snow banks
are general around the lakes.
All fish taken were eastern
brook and average around BVt
inches with the largest hooked
being 11 M inches. Most of these
were caught by fly in the early
morning and evening with deep
trolling on spinners and worms
bringing results during mid-day.
The group caught a little over
100 fish during the week.
Others in the party with
Wood were Don Bean and Bill
Roheffs, both assistant managers
at Portland; Al Herman, assist
ant manager at Eugene; James
Martin, office manager and Wil
bur K. Hood, agency manager,
both of Portland.
Gambling Raids
(Continued from Page 1)
The attorney contended that
condemnation proceedings were
underway in federal court for
the Detroit area and that on
July 12, U. S. District. Court
Judge James Alger Fee had
moved for immediate posses
sion of the land under condem
nation. The federal government is the
plaintiff in that case with over
350 defendants. Small claimed
that on most federal reserva
tions, state and county law en
forcement agencies are not en
titled to act.
He will file a brief on this
and a second demurrer to the
cuse within 10 days. In the
second denvirrer, Small con
tends that V'he warrants ' for
Johnson and Manasco were
served illegally in that they
were served on Sunday. Mis
demeanor warrants cannot be
served on Sunday without court
permission according to state
law.
Want V. S. to Take Ove.
On the suggestion that the fed
eral government may take pos
session of the land, Sheriff
Young commented:
""' this is true, we'll have to
null all our deputies and en
forcement out of there. That's
all these tavern operators have
been waiting for. They've been
telling my deputies for some
time that they'd have it easy
whon the government took
over."
The district attorney said he
had no information concerning
the condemnation proceedings
or the future status of law en
forcement in the area. He said
he would seek information
from other federal construction
sites to determine how law en
forcement operated in other
sections of the state. He ex
pressed doubt that the county
would be denied the right to
deal with law violators.
Sheriff Young pointed out
that the county cooperated with
federal agents in enforcement
of law In the Mongold camp
area.
Whether the federal govern
ment would permit wide-open
gambling activities as predicted
by some residents and business
men of the area still was un
settled by Attorney Small's on
tentions. Even in Nevada where
gambling is legal under state
law, Boulder City, in the fed
eral area surrounding Hoover
dam, gambling is taboo.
Weather Over
Nation Normal
Chicago, July 18 (IP) Mid
summer is behaving a little bet
ter than average over most of
where they were around normal
and promising, in some sections,
to become cooler.
A broad cool air front had
come down from Canada into
the nation today.
Temperatures continued high
in the southern states but else
Montana and North Dakota to
day with enough momentum to
carry as far south as Iowa and
Nebraska and eastward across
Minnesota and Wisconsin to the
Great Lakes region.
The mercury had climbed into
the 90s over most of the mid
west over the week-end but the
arrival of the cooler air over
the northern plains states was
expected to hold it within the
70-80 degree ranges there late
today and tomorrow.

Later pilots made a statement
to the effect that landings would
not be made in Salem during
hazardous weather after Octo
ber, 1949, unless at least an H
facility was installed here.
Inquiries about the instru
ment landing system for the
field were made of the CAA but
they evinced little interest, un
til late in June when UAL offi
cials on learning that CAA rec
ords showed only an estimated
20 instrument approaches a year
being made at McNary field,
collected the proper figures and
forwarded them to CAA.
The figures, secured from the
CAA control tower records,
showed 196 instrument ap
proaches made at McNary field
from July 1, 1948 until June 30,
1949. It was estimated that 25
of these might have been due to
the Portland flood conditions.
