construction. Erickson, in turn,
agrees to move within the next
few days in return for a payment
from the former owners of the
property, Mr. and Mrs. Hjalmar
Anderson of Turner. Erickson's
attorney called it a "fair consid
eration" for the release of an
option for a five-year lease on the
properly which Erickson stated
be had with ihe Andersons.
Tbe Andersons sold the prop
erty to tbe state last June while
Erickson was still a tenant. Erick
son has been renting from the
state on a monthly basis but re
cently announced he would take
up an option on the lease.
The state has been anxious to
let the contract for the building
to take advantage of the $359,799
low bid of A. V. Peterson and
Company of Portland, which is
more than $20,000 less than the
second low bid. Peterson' report
cdly made the low bid to save a
costly move of equipment which
was used here on the recently'
completed new wing of Salem
Memorial hospital.
Erickson's attorney, Pcery Bur-
en, said Erickson would probably
be able to move to a new location
in the next few days.
Presumably the state will ac
cept the Peterson bid and con
struction will start soon afterwards.

Minister Gels Three
Years, Rape Charge
There may he a few Impon
derables in the up-coming Salem
schools district budget, but there
is no uncertainty regarding the
cost of operations durinc the
19M5S fiscal year. It will be
higher than lor the current term.
This was indicated during a
preview of the situation Wed
nesday afternoon when the
school board, the citizens com
mittee and a few interested in
dividuals sat down together to
hear Sunt. Walter Snvder out
line what lies ahead.
Population growth constitutes
the largest single problem, com
mented Ihe superintendent. This
growth will necessitate the con
struction or two clemonlarv
schools each year for the next
three years. Then (or (he Ifl.Vi
f9 period, one or two additional
grade schools will h. needed
each year.
This adds up lo 12 to 14 new
classrooms each year for the
immediate three-year period.
Which means additional teachers
and increased cost of operation
Operation of two high schools
will arid to the financial burden,
said Snyder but he sees the
possibility of a leveling off of
the upward spiral of registration
on the elementary level, along
about 1960. However, predicting
the birth rate and the arrival of
new families to the community
is akin to crystal ball gazing, ad
mits the superintendent.
As has been the case for a
number of years, the voters will
be asked to pass judgment on a
budget that is considerably be
yond the six per cent limitation.
