City Showing
Steady Growth
Indicating the . gradual
growth of Salem in population
are figures from the Water
department.
From Mar oh, 1952, to
March, 1953, the numbet of
users in Salem increased from
11,894 to 12,269, a gain of 3.5
per cent, reports Manager
John L. Geren.
Water usage during the win
ter months averages about
one-fourth of that used dur
ing the peak month of the
year, says Geren. During
March 15,637,580 cubic feet
of water was billed for a total
revenue of $28,897.34.
This is an average bill for
all users of $2.36 a month. The
average residential user paid
$1.67 a month.
Korean War
(Continued from Page 1)
Decker said the directive
first came to the army from
Gen. George C. Marshall, sec
retary of defense in 1950, and
a similar directive had been
handed down during the time
that Robert A. Lovett was sec
retary of defense.
Decker said he didn't know
how "far back" the responsi
bility for the directive went,
but that it possibly went as
far as President Truman.
He said the directive to as
sume the war would end on
each June 30, in preparing the
military budge:, was cancel
led when the new secretary of
defense, Charles E. Wilson,
took office.
Earlier, Decker repeated
what other witnesses have
told the subcommittee, that in
the fall of 1951 it was believed
there would be a quick end to
the war.

A major premise of the re

available and in addition It
