$5000 in interest to our taxpayers
Twenty-five thousand dollars of
auxiliary water bonds will be call
able this summer and we plan to
take up these bonds at the earliest
opportunity consistent with a
sound fiscal policy. The assessed
valuation of the city has been set
at approximately two and one-
half million dollars for 1939 and
the levy for the year will be lower
than it has been for the past 15
years.

I have always considered our
police department outstanding and
I was particularly gratified to
learn recently that an investigator
of one of the state law enforce
ment agencies, after an investiga
tion of several days, had volun
teered the statement that Ashland
is one of the cleanest cities in
Oregon. The report of the chief of
police which is submitted contem
poraneously with my report shows
that this department has contin
ued its efficient record of law en
forcement. I want to say that our
police department has always, and
will continue, to strictly enforce
al) violations of law, and we will
not countenance the violation of
any law of which we have knowl
edge.
The hospital was leased to Mr.
and Mrs. Karl Nims during the
past year and I believe that their
management of it has been very
satisfactory.
The library and park boards, aa
indicated by their reports, have
carefully operated their respective
branches of the city government.
The cemeteries have been prop
erly maintained during the past
year and an arrangement was
made with the owners of the Har
gadine cemetery under which the
city assists in its maintenance.
The Lithia springs committee
has indicated that it will be in a
position to offer some concrete
recommendations to the council in
the near future in order that we
may utilize this valuable asset to
our community.
I appreciate the very kind con
sideration and cooperation which
I have received from the members
of the council, the cit/ officials
'noth elective and appointive the
city employes and the citizens of
our community during the past
year. A spirit of harmony has
prevailed which has been of great
help to me in performing the ad
ministrative duties of my office,
and I wish to thank all those who
have helped to make the past year
as successful as I think it has
been. It is my desire and I know
it is the desire of everyone con
nected with the administration of
government in this city to cooper
ate with those who have business
with the city and we shall wel-

city at any time.
