Arthur Berg, Councilman Ray Jeub and City Engineer J. Loy Stacer will leave the fore part of next week for Portland to confer with the regional director of the Reconstruc tion Finance Corporation in regard to Coquille’s application for a loan of <30,000 which will be used in replac ing the wooden and steel pipe in the local water system, if the application i/ approved. ' A statement of the city’s financial condition, especially as regards the water system, has been prepared by City Treasurer Bickels for submission to the R. F. C. director. Briefly this report shows receipts of »21,000 since Jan. 1, 1932—seven teen months, and a balance of more than »8,000 to the credit of the water fund. The estimated value of. the pbnt is *250,000. On the debit side of the water fund account there are outstanding *113,- 500 in bonds, none of which are due before 1945, and *3,800 in warrants. Not included in Mr. Sickels' pre pared statement, but simply as an in dication of the city's total indebted- ness, it can be added that there are approximaely *58,000 of outstanding l>onds and warrants of the general fund, making a total of *175,000 of outstanding indebtedness. Beside thst there sre improvement bonds, street and sewer, totalling *96,000, but as these are payable by the prop erty owners the city should never have to pay a cent on those bonds, al though they are a city obligation. The water fund always hps shown a profit, above coat of operation, and Ooad retirement and interest. and it should not be difficult to prove to the R. F. C. officials that thia would be a self-liquidating loan, and that the funds are necessary for the preserva tion of the Coquilb water oystem. The city officials will also present the plan suggested by the Lions Club that *6900 be loaned the ci* for the fitting up and main t wmn e s of • s wi m ming pool at the east end of First street. The plan outlined by the eluh shows that thia would also be a self liquidating project. Dry Convention Candidates The meeting ef Coos county forces, in (Pioneer Hall here last day afternoon, resulted in the or- gani^ation of the Coos County Dr# League, of which Dr. T. M. White, of North Bend, ia president; Rev. E. G. Ranton, Myrtle Point, vice president; Rev. T. R. Jackman, Coquille, secre tary-treasurer. There were upwards of one hundred persons in attendance, who endorsed m dry candidates to the prohibition repeal convention, to be held in Aug ust, the following: W. Taylor Dement, of Myrtle Point; Lyman Carrier, of Coquilb; and Mrs. Wm. Vaughn, of North Bend. An active campaign until the elec tion July 21, when delegates to the -tate convention are to be chosen, will be conducted by the new league/ It will require a lot of work to change the wet majority of 2214 in Coos county at last fall’s election. In Coquilb the repeal of the state's dry law egrried by only three or four votes. Galloway Here Next Friday At a meeting of the Coos County Tax Equalisation league officers held at the city hall, Coquille, Wednesday evening the meeting went on record to combine forces with the committee of eight and use all their ' energies towards pushing the campaign for the passage of the Sales Tax measure to be voted on next month. L. A. Lilje- qvist, vice president of the tax league, was invited by the Coquille and Fair view Granges to speak on this issue. The school situation was discussed and the Sales Tax was the only pos sible remedy offered to the taxpayer to aid our schools in this present crisis. Chas. V. Galloway, chairman of the''' State Tax Commission, will speak in Coquille on Friday, June 16, at the court house at 8 p. m.

Clovers and Wood give their personal endorsement to a picture, as they did to “King of the Jungles”' the first of the week, it in worth seeing.
