Highway Commission Must
Buy Top Half of Bridge
Portland. Feb. 8 VP) Oregon highway commissioners have de
cided to buy half a bridge the
with a bad rental deal made by
The commission moved yesterday to buy the top highway deck
of the combination railroad-highway Steel bridge over the Wil
lamette river here after looking O
over a 1941 contract. The re
view came as a shock.
With $900,000 invested In a
new west side approach and an
equal amount committed to east
ern approaches, the commission
found it is under contract to
start paying $65,000 a year rent
plus maintenance estimated at
$22,000 annually. Multnomah
county has been paying only
$47,000 rent since 1934 and the
Union Pacific and Southern Pa
cific paid the upkeep.
The commission figures its
annual rent until the contract
expires in 1971 would almost
pay back the total cost of the
bridge when it was built in 1912.
Chairman T. H. Banfield was
admitted amazed. "It was our
understanding we were just
taking over the lease that the
county had," he said. During the
heated debate later, he said "It
too hot for me."
Commissioner Ben Chandler
of Coos Bay asked: "What posi
tion are we in? Were stuck,
aren't we?"
Earlier, questions about who
drew up the contract brought
from Attorney J. M. Devers the
statement that he hadn't writ
ten the agreement, and didn't
know who did. Engineer R. H.
Baldock recalled that "It was
a rather stringent contract, but
the best the railroads would do
and the commission finally
elected to accept it."
At the time, Henry F. Cabell
was chairman. Members then
included Huron Clough, Can-
yonville, and Herman Oliver,
John Day.
The move to buy the highway
portion of the bridge came on
Devers' suggestion. He said the
contract provides for state ac
quisition, by negotiation or con
demnation. He suggested nego
tiation be tried first, and was
told to go ahead.
Banfield said he had known
nothing about the terms until
the contract was brought out at
the meeting yesterday. It came
up at this time because the state
is preparing to take over the
top portion of the span this
month from Multnomah county,
Under the agreement, the coun
ty will pay the commission
$41,000 for the first five years
of the 21-year agreement.
Meanwhile, the state gave the
go-ahead on redeckmg the span
Delegations which appeared
asking for specific improve
ments got no actual commit
ments. Groups from Eugene and
Springfield were told no money
'yas now available. Banfield
said the commission has spent
between $4,000,000 and $5,000,
000 in the Eugene area in the
past six years, recognizes that
problems remain, but lacks cash
to solve them now.
A Mill City group had planned
to appear yesterday to ask for
improvement of the road to De
troit, but canceled its appeal. A
spokesman said the commis
sion's action Monday in earmark
ing $350,000 for construction of
six miles of the Little North
Fork-Mill City road on a per
manent re-location was what
would have been asked.
On bids opened yesterday,
two were referred to the engi
neer with power to award. They
are:
Baker county Black Bridge-
Halfway section of the Baker
Homestead and Halfway high
ways, rock production, Rush
Construction company, Enter
prise, $26,255.
Linn county Halsey-Craw-
fordsville section of the Halsey-
Sweet Home secondary highway,
B.3 miles of pavir. Porter W
Yett, Portland, $113,010.

veloped during World War II.

Walsh Protests
(Continued from Page 1)
He said that eight times dur
ing the month the electrical fre
quency in the area sagged be
low 60 cycles, but with milder
weather a capacity load is now
being carried in the pool.
Dr. Raver said there had
been some line breakages on
lines of Bonneville customers
but the administration had been
able to divert power over other
lines to continue service.
The power situation in the
Northwest will continue to be
serious until at least the end of
1953, Dr. Raver said, at which
time he said that further gener
ation of power at McNary, Hun
gry Horse and Detroit dams will
enable furnishing of uninter
rupted power to present custom
ers. However, no new contracts
can be entered Into with either
private or public power users at
least until 1957, Dr. Haver said.
He said that the Portland
General Electric company had
filed application for 400,000 ad
ditional killowatts by the end of
1953 and negotiations were
progress with the Mountain
States and California-Oregon
power companies for additional
power when available.

In this way, Cole said, the
board could speed up its report
to the president if one is neces

He did not elaborate on that
statement. President Truman has
asked for a report by Monday.
The board had some informal
sessions with Lewis and the
coal operators yesterday.
No one who attended the pre
liminary meetings would say
what went on.
But while Lewis told report
ers he was "disinclined" to dis
cuss any aspect of the situation,
it was reliably reported that
both he and the operators had
agreed to cooperate wi'n the
board In its efforts ta get to the
bottom of the months-old con
tract fight.
In the pension dispute of
March-April, 1948, it took
court subpoena to get Lewis to
meet with a similar board.

Candidates
(Continued from Page 1)
.City Judge W. W. McKinney
could not be contacted today, but
it is understood he will not be
a candidate for re-election, since
his residence may be moved out
side the city, which would make
him ineligible.
Elmer M. Amundson Is pretty
certain to be a candidate for
the judgeship, and possibly
Peery T. Buren who is not ready
to make a definite statement.
The judgeship is a bigger job
than it was in 1947 when first
established. It is a part-time
office, but the business has
grown until it takes much time
from an attorney's regular prac
tice, while the salary has not
increasd. So it isn t quite as at
tractive to attorney.i as it was
at the start.
In Ward 2 Alderman Albert
H. Gille expects to file for re
election. He says a lot of city
matters In which he is interested
need attention, and he doesn't
want to retire until they are
finished.
It doesn't come first hand
from Alderman Dan J. Fry of
Ward 4, but he also probably
will run for re-election.
In Ward 6 Alderman Tom
Armstrong doubtless will run
again unless he chooses to run
for another office, which is pos
sible.-
Ward 8 is the new ward across
the river, and now filled by Mus
grave, who is running for mayor.
Al Copenhaver, former West Sa
lem alderman before the mer
ger, is expected to file his can
didacy. Musgrave approves him.
He was an ardent supporter of
the merger, and had a valuable
municipal exprience as West Sa
lem water commissioner. He
lives on Kingwood Heights.
The last day for filing com
pleted petitions as candidates
for city offices is April 3.
On the May ballot will be a
measure to finance a city-wide
drainage program. The program
is in process of formation. Some
other measures may also be on
the ballot.
Search Plane
(Continued from Page 1)
Names of those aboard, which
included Canadians and Ameri
cans, were withheld by search
officiels.
The air force immediately
launched plans for bringing the
men out. It was not certain im
mediately whether it would be
feasible to use one of the three
helicopters which have been
standing by. Officials said it
might be necessary to send in
army weasels, specially equip
ped with caterpillar areads.
No Word of C-54
Meanwhile there was no word
back from other planes which
continued the giant search for
the C-54, now in its 13th day.
Over the general search areas
the weather was clear north of
Snag, but patchy snow and
clouds obscured most moun
tain peaks. More favorable
weather for searching was fore
cast for the next two days.

Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon,
$250, 000 Left School
For Little Deaf Kiddies
Portland, Feb. 8 VP) Bequest of a quarter of a million dollars
to the little known Maxon Oral school of Portland, revealed yes
terday, was seen today as assuring its future.
The school, only two and a half years old, is for totally deal
little children.
The bequest was contained in
the will of Max D. Tucker, weal-
thy lumberman who died here
Feb. 2. It was Tucker's finan
cial help that started the school
and kept it open.
The school was started when
the parents of five children,
either born deaf or who lost
their hearing in Infancy, sought
some means by which individual
training could be given the chil
dren so they could learn to talk
and with their eyes to know
what others said.
Paul L. Boley, Portland at
torney whose daughter was deaf
ened by spinal meningitis, was
a leading figure in the start and
is president of the school.
He said today that the Tuck
er bequest set aside $200,000 as
permanent endowment and
$50,000 for construction of
building. The school now is in
a leased home in southeast Port
land near Laurclhurst park.
The school, named for Mrs.
Alice M. Maxon, head of the
Portland public school for the
deaf, costs some $15,000 a year
to maintain, Boley said. The
Tucker endowment will meet
probably a little more than half
that sum and the rest will be
made up by other contributions
and the regular tuition of $50
a month.
The school's charter limits en
rollment to five children per
teacher. There now are two
teachers and eight pupils.
Boley said enrollment was
held down by tuition cost, and
the fact that it Is a day school.
