Wyatt's View Vacation for
Radio Tower Gets Approval
Vacation of Wyatt's View tract, location of the KSLM radio
tower, Jn the Kingwood annexation of Polk county, was voted
in the passage of an ordinance by the city council Monday night.
The area of the tract is in excess of one and a half acre, and
since the area is all under ownership of the radio station and
all necessary to operation of thef-
tower no benefits are assessed
by the vacation. Robert W. De
Armond, representing the own
ers, exrilained that an area of
that size is necessary because it
Is permeated by wiring
The ordinance-was passed af
ter a public hearing at which no
objections were made,
Also enacted after public
hearing, with no objections, was
an ordinance permitting
change of zone from Class III
special business to Class III
business zone for a 50-foot prop
erty of Al Loucks Home Fuel
Oil company in Block 34, North
Salem, to permit the installation
of fuel tanks of 50,000 gallons
capacity with loading platform
above them.
A third ordinance passed
changes the name of Fair Oaks
to Forest Hills Way, names Al
pine avenue, and eliminates the
name Charles street, all in the
Kingwood annexation
An ordinance bill up for third
reading in the interest of a new
doctors' and dentists clinic was
tabled for amendment. It pro
poses a zone change from Class
II residential to Class III busi
ness zone property of Jack Wat
son in Block 6 of Roberts addl
tion, which is at 1240 Center
street. The project is to convert
a two-story apartment house so
the first floor may be used for
the clinic. The bill will be
amended to make the change to
Class III Special business zone
so the business will be restrict
ed to a clinic.
According to previous an
nouncement all of the three ord
inance bills covering the Bald-
ock street and traffic plan, and
a resolution authorizing a con
tract with the highway depart
ment, were tabled until the next
meeting.
A public hearing also was
held Monday night on petition
of M. Clark for vacation of a
portion of Oxford and South
Capitol streets. No objections
were heard. Elmer M. Amund-
son, representing the petitioner.
said that part of Oxford had
been dedicated as a. 61-foot
street, while all the rest of it is
40 feet, which causes a jog in
the property line. The vacation
would remedy the situation.
Settlement of the Teamsters
wage dispute with sand and
gravel companies was believed
to cancel a petition of property
owners for the improvement of
Raynor street between Electric
and Rural with black top in
stead of concrete as previously
advertised. City Engineer Davis
said the reason for the petition
was inability to get concrete be
cause of the dispute that idled
several plants. Since the dispute
had been settled he said he
thought the property owner
would now want concrete pavement.
The council adopted a resolu
tion limiting parking on North
Capitol street between Union
and Center, in front of the Cap
itol Shopping Center, to 15 min
utes, but amended it by direct
ing that parking meters be in
stalled when the money is available.
On petition of the city of West
Salem the installation of a stop
sign at the foot of Bonnie Way
in the Kingwood annexation
was approved.
The council approved City
Manager J. L. Franzen's recom
mendation that a contract for
building the interceptor sewer
be awarded Werner & Keske of
Eugene, whose low bid was
$216,974.20.
Acceptance of a deed to prop
erty from A. J. Flint for street
purposes cancels paving and
weed lines levied against the
property.
Improvement of Candalaria
boulevard from Doughton street
to Alvarado terrace with asphalt
pavement 30 feet wide was approved.
Another resolution directed
H. P. Barrett to appear before
the council August 22 and show
cause why his taxicab license
should not be revoked for fail
ure to pay fees due on July 1.

Some Lower Prices Seen
In Fall by Ag Department
.Washington, Aug. 9 (U.B The agriculture department foresees
"some decline" in retail food prices this fall.
In a review of the national food situation, the department said
today that food supplies during the rest of the year are expected
to be somewhat larger than during the same period a year ago.
And, in the fall, the depart-f
ment. said, there will be sea
sonally larger supplies of meat,
chicken and turkey, fresh fruits
and vegetables, sweet potatoes,
drv beans and peas and rice
On the other hand, supplies
of eggs and dairy products are
likely to be seasonally smaller,
the department said.
Here's the department's fore
cast of retail food prices this
fall:
Meat prices are expected to
decline seasonally in the fall
The reduction is likely to be
most in pork prices.
Eggs higher prices during
the next few months, with the
seasonal price peak reached
sometime in October.
Fish prices are likely to con
tlnue lower than a year ago, but
higher than in the late spring
Chicken and turkey lower
prices are expected. Supplies
will be considerably larger than
last year. Turkey meat sup
plies per capita may set a new
record.
Dairy products a seasonal
drop in supplies, but higher con
sumption than a year ago. Re
tail milk prices aren't likely to
change greatly.
Citrus fruits prices will con
tinue substantially higher this
summer than Inst. Supplies will
continue short until the new
crop comes in in volume in the
fall.

JTiese telephone men will soon make a damaged long distance cable carry calls again. Come along and see how it's done.
THEY GET GOING FAST WHEN TROUBLE STRIKES
Telephone repairmen's big job is keeping your calls moving
1. When someone's ditch-digger bites a chunk out of a
long distance cable and it happens now and then repair
men get on the job fast to fix it Back at a test center, sensi
tive instruments located the break and splicers hit the
road. Almost simultaneously, many long distance calls
carried by the cable were routed around through other
cities, over different cables, to get them through with as
little delay as possible.
3. A warm "hello" from the folks back East means a lot
and we make sure you can talk to them whenever you
wish. Keeping service reliable makes your telephone a
more valuable servant just as keeping rates as low as
possible makes service a bargain today. A local call still
costs just a few pennies . . . and you can call New York or
anywhere on the East Coast at day station rates for only
$2.30 plus Federal tax.
2. Service restored ... the hundreds of tiny severed wires
have been spliced temporarily and, even as the workmen
stow their tools, calls are again speeding through the
cable. Later it will be permanently spliced without inter
rupting service. Such fast repairs are made possible by
planning ahead for emergencies, so trained people can be
pulled from other jobs on short notice . . . part of furnish
ing reliable service to you.
Your telephone
is one of today's
biggest bargains
