mis situation is not singular to
ludinam rails, says Bean, Port
land city commissioner and presi
dent of the League of Oregon
Cities. Mushrooming suburban
growth in the pst few years has
brought It in varying degrees to
'the Eugene-Springfield area, Pen
dleton, Roscburg, Salem, Portland
and many other communities as
. well.
To solve this and a dozen other
serious problems the committee,
after a year of study, has pre
pared tentative recommendations
to give existing governmental
agencies authority to cope with
the situation.
These will be considered at a
meeting in Sjlcm Oct. 15 and 16
and, if given final approval, will
serve as a basis for bills to be
sub .lilted to the Oregon Legisla
ture next year. Thus, according to
Bean, Oregon will become the
first stale in the nation to seek
a solution to its so-called fringe
problems on a statewide scale.
New Pprtland
Street Okayed
PORTLAND (jf) Joint state
county construction of an exten
sion of 82nd Avenue was approved
by Multnomah County commis
sioners Tuesday.
The state, using part of a fed
eral highway allotment, would put
up about $1,200,000. The county's
share would be some $200,000.
The proposed extension would
stretch north to the Columbia
niver and provide a new entrance
from the east to Portland Inter
national Airport.
missions mandatory after Donula-
tions in unincorporated areas
reach a certain level.
Another provides for "condition
al annexation" which would au
thorize adjacent cities to provide
certain sen-ices to suburban areas
at less than the total city tax rate.
For example. Bean says, an area
might be supplied with sewage fa
cilities only and be taxed accord
ingly. Two proposed constitutional
amendments would give counties
the right to issue bonds for neces
sary services' and to provide for
county home rule.
At present, counties may issue
bonds only for roads, bridges and
in the event of civil insurrection.
Under the home rule provision
counties could adopt charters with
authority to provide such services
as sewage and water and make
other improvements.
The committee also is exDected
to recommend legislation to make
possible by a vote of the people
creation of a metropolitan area
government to perform functions
which city and county units indi
vidual! cannot supply adequate
ly. This provision, Bean says, has
been discussed in terms of appli
cation to the Portland metropoli
tan area to solve such problems
as planning, transit regulation,
sanitation and water supplies over
a three-county area.
The committee, starting work
last October, held 1 public hear
ings around the state to gather
information. Special studies were
made of these eight areas: Salem,
Eugene, Roseburg, Medford, Kla
math Falls, Prineville, Central
Lincoln County and. Portland.
The biggest suburban head
aches, the committee found, con
cern sewage disposal, surface
drainage and street "construction
and maintenance.
Only slightly less painful are
the lack of adequate water sup
plies, transit service, zoning and
building regulations and parks
and recreation facilities. In addi
tion there are the problems of air
pollution control, garbage dispos
al a?d substandard housing.
Kenneth C. Tollenaar, the com
mittee's executive secretary, says
studies indicate that fire and po
lice protection for suburban areas
are generally adequate, with a
few exceptions.
"The thread running through all
of the sen-ice and control prob
lems of suburban areas is that of
local government organization
and finance," Tollenaar, on leave
from the Portland office of the
Bureau of Municipal Research,
points out.-
"Overlapping special districts
and the refusal to annex to an
adjacent City were the most ser
ious obstacles mentioned at hear
ings," the executive ' secretary
says.
The committee found that in the
absence of either annexation or
county administration of services,
special districts have been organ
ized in great number, each with
a separate area, responsibility
and tax base.
The solution, the committee in
dicates in its tentative recom
mendations, is to permit counties
to piny a larger role in satisfying
the needs of suburban and scat
tered unincorporated urban areas.
Aiding the interim group were
the Bureau of Municipal Research
of the University of Oregon, the
Institute of State Affairs of Wil
lamette University, Salem, and
advisory committees from the
Assn. of Oregon Counties, the
League of Oregon Cities, the Pro
fessional Engineers of Oregon and
the Oregon Health Officers Assn.
Liquor Funds
To Be Divvied
PORTLAND tn Distribution
of funds from state liquor sales
and license .fees will total $3,623,
693 for the quarter ended Sept. 30,
the Oregon Liquor Control Com
mission announced Tuesday.
Under the regular allocation
formula the state general fund
will get $3,162,500 of this. Counties
and cities will split $470,193.
The distribution will bring state
liquor profits up to 65 per cent of
the $23,860,450 set by the Legisla
ture as anticipated revenue for
the biennium. This is slightly
ahead of tiat expectation since
the biennium Is 62H per cent
completed. '

Young Mother
Pitifully Fails
In Theft Try
CLEVELAND t A young
mother failed in a pitiful attempt
at a bank robbery yesterday, and
police were puzzled at her motive.
They arrested Mrs. Maybelle
Millard, 25. mother ot four chil
dren, and wife of a 30-yer-old vet
eran who lost both legs in France
during World War II. ,
She is accused of trying 'to rob
a shopping center branch of the
Cleveland Trust Co. with a note
demanding money. She carried no
gun, and left without .loot when
the woman teller rang the alarm.
Police saw her drive away in
a 1955 station wagon and took the
license number. She was arrested
when she drove up to her com
fortable, ranch-style home in su
burban Highland Heights about
three hours later.
Her husband, Richard, 30,
draws a disability pension and is
employed as a finisher by an op
tical firm. He said his wife had
been under doctor's care for a
year.
The bank teller, 30-year-old Mrs.
Florence M. Rees, said the wom
an shoved three rolls of pennies
at her and a piece of children's
drawing paper on which was
crudely lettered:
"Don't say anything. Give me
your money. I have a buddy at
the door with a gun on you."
Mrs. Rees opened a drawer,
pressed the alarm button and
gave the woman a dollar bill and
two quarters in exchange for the
pennies. The woman picked up
$1.25 and left.
Mrs. Millard was taken to coun
ty jail. FBI District Chief H. O.
Hawkins said attempted bank
robbery charges would bo filed.
. Poultry meat consumption in the.
U. S. increased from 17 pound!
in 1940 to 29 pounds in 1956. '

est acreage in the nation. The
county was third in production
with 10,983,099 quarts.

production with 9,126,723 quarts
and third in acreage with 3,326
acres.
The leading production area,
with 22,697,694 quarts, was Santa
Clara County, Calif.
Fluoridation Drinking
Fountain Plan Vetoed
PORTLAND UH Proponents of
fluoridated drinking water want
ed to set up three portable foun
tains in downtown Portland to en
able passersby to sample water
treated with the chemical.
The City Council rejected the
proposal and Mayor Fred Peter
son said it probably would violate
city law. A fluoridation proposal
wiil be on the November city ballot.
