City Budget
(Continued from Pa 1)
This is serious. An emergency
fund is imperative. County zon
ing is a new item,' and if no
money is available for prelim
inary surveys to match county
and school district money it may
mean defeat of county zoning
when the people vote on it next
year. As for wage and salary
Increases, they are going to be
a i - J J4. i n.n.lJ

j a 10 per cent increase all round
J would cost $81,000 for the year.
. "This doesn't mean," the city
manager said, "that I don't think
there should be increases. I
i think there should be. But to
j balance the budget at the start
I It was necessary to leave them
j as they were."
George Thomason, labor mem
ber of the committee, wanted to
know why the city manager
hadn t applied the excess per'
mitted by the 6 per cent limita-
; tion to wage increases, instead
j of absorbing it in something
j else.
ft Mayor Al Loucks answered by
"telling Thomason that was the
council's responsibility.
This touched things off. Mayor
Loucks said he had been dis
turbed when someone referred
to the budget committee as a
"rubber stamp."
"I don't want you to be rub
ber stamps," he said, "And It
any of you citizen members see
anything going on that you think
Is rotten I want you to say so
In these meetings."
That aroused Ed Randle, who
recalled that he was a member
of the sub-committee on salaries
last year.
"And after the committee was
dismissed," he said, "the council
revamped our whole schedule,
No wonder they call us rubber
stamps.
"I have no good answer for
that one, Ed," answered the
mayor, "except to refer you to
the pressure groups that we nave
to meet."
But Alderman Dan Fry de
clared that the budget commit
tee itself authorized the council
to revamp the salary schedule.
"You must have been author
ized in some back room then,"
retorted Randle. "I don't re
member it."
"Mr. Randle is right," averred
Alderman David O'llara. "There
hasn't been a time in the lat
six or seven years that the coun
cil hasn't upset the budget committee."
O'Hara questioned City Man
ager Franzcn about his 10-year
development program. The
answer indicated it had been
badly disrupted when the peo
ple last year voted down a num
ber of financial measures, with
the result that the program could
not be carried out as planned.
Mayor Loucks said this would
be one of the purposes for a
special election this spring to
get back on some of the noces-
sary projects.
If a special election Is called
. which seems certain, it will have
to be in May or early June so
any moneys voted can get into
' the budget.
There was talk of introducing
' the special election ordinance
, bill at the March 23 meeting, but
some doubt whether it could be
. , prepared by that time. It must
be advertised ZO days before
the election is held.
When a threat was heard to
drop the city's first aid service,
costing about $39,000 a year,
Committeeman Thomason pro
tested. He favors making it i
: department by itself, not con
nected with the fire department
; and asked City Manager Fran
: ten to bring In an estimate of
; what the set-up would cost.
Claims GOP Mandate
On Alaska Statehood
Washington (P) Delegate
Bartlett (D; Alaska) said Tues
day he believes Senate Rcpubli
: cans have a mandate to work for
statehood for Alaska.
Noting .that the party's 1952
. platform calls for Alaskan itate
" food under terms of an "equit
able" bill, the delegate declared:
"Therefore, the Republican
platform is a mandate in itself
to the majority party to write
, bill which It considers proper
i so that Alaska statehood will no
: longer be delayed."
Lebanon Radio fo
Start Night Programs
Lebanon Final approval of
night operation of KGAL, Leba
non radio station, has been re
ceived, Gordon Allen, president
of the Linn Broadcasting corpor
ation, stated Monday.
Cost of the added facilities will
amount to about $15,000. Anoth
er tower will be constructed 150
feet east of the present tower to
give directional pattern, thus
protecting a Spokane station
from interference during night
hours.

atrip through California and

programming problems' and stat
ed that Eugene-Springfield chan
nel 20 TV should be in operation

The house elections committee
Monday torpedoed a proposal to
require counties to issue pocket
registration cards, but ran into
trouble when it tried to act on a
bill authorizing voting machines,
The voting machine bill, in
troduced by Rep. Earl Hill,
Cuahman, would make their use
permissive.
However, a number of other
provisions ran afoul existing
election laws and the commit
tee found itself virtually rewrit
ing the proposal. Hill and Rep.
Alfred Corbett, Portland, were
named as a subcommittee to re
vise several sections and final
committee actions appeared
stalled indefinitely.
The committee also emasulat-
ed a bill by Rep. Monroe Sweet-
land, Milwaukie, which would
permit re-registration by mail.
rne bill will be reprinted with
half a dozen amendments for re
consideration at the committee's
next meeting,

Derailment of
Train Thwarted
Lebanon Officials of the
SP&S railroad report what may
have been a deliberate attempt to
derail the early morning train
from Sweet Home' at a point
about lour miles southeast of Le
banon.
A metal cylinder over a foot
long was found wedged between
a mainline rail and a guard rail
by Luther Bennett, bus driver
for the Lebanon high school.
Bennett said his headlights
picked out the cylinder as he
crossed the tricks on his first
run to pick up students. It was
located near a frog a short dis
tance from the road crossing.
Officials of the line said the
object might not have derailed
the train which passed a short
time later. They said the train
could hive tossed the cylinder
off. the tracks or driven it into
the ground.
They stated, however, it ap
peared to have been placed there
deliberately or perhaps accldent-
ly left by children walking along
the right of way.
Influenza Situation
No Cause for Alarm
Although 218 cases of in
fluenza were reported during
the week ending March 7, Dr.
W. J. Stone, county health of
ficer does not believe this con
stitutes an upward trend in the
disease.
Rather, he added, physicians
are becoming a bit more con
scious regarding the importance
of reporting to the health office.
It is believed a portion of the
218 cases reported are holdovers
from the preceding week. Of
the total, 171 were checked in
from state Institutions, the ma
jority being at Falrview Home.
Thirteen were reported from
Salem.
Other Instance of communi
cable and reportable disease
during the period included: 7
chickenpox; 4 German measles;
3 each of mumps and measles; 2
lobar pneumonia; 2 syphilis; and
1 each of infectious hepatitis;
broncho pneumonia; poliomye
litis, ringworm, and scarlet
fever.
