IN WASHINGTON 50-50 PAVEMENT COME UP TONIGHT Senate and McBride Nominated for Governor Ex-Mayor Miller of Seattle Named for Congress Su preme Court Justices Successful. The workings of the :o-called S-.'0 ulan for the solution of Medtord'i Poirdexter Defeats Humphreys for'pavins problems r.nd niih win be paitned'ufion tonight b..- the city cour. ell In special session, 'as explained last nlsht by T. W. Miles, ilr. Miles was a member of the council corn millee which about a year ago first put the plan forward Under this plan ihe property own er will be required to pay for half of the paving before bi property and ihe city as a whole i II bear hi!', and also the cost of lnter-seetions. In event the paving has been pall In full, or In any amount over one nil?, that amount will re refunded In cer tificates that will le liken up by the city recorder. Them i rliflcates nny also be used for the payment of p9 i! jt liens on o'hir roperty helon to the same bclder. When Ihe required half has been paid the city recorder will iBsue a cerlflcale of release wl.iih removes the specific lien from the property !iit which does not, noweve, releate it from being a parcel of proper!, stundlng behind the improvement bonds of the city as a whole. In this its status will he exactly the same as a piece of unpaved property. A resolution is also before t lie council for the adoption of the Port' land plan of collecting paving assess ments. Tills plan has heen passed upon as legal by the supreme court whereas the present collecting meth oil has not any proof of its legality It will ho necessary to reassess all property in Ihe city on which half or more than half of the- paving'rosts have not been made. This Is not ex pected to be either a very expensive or difficult task as it is thought that the majority of the property owners either have paid up to the half mark now or to save themselves the trouble of paying later and to clear off the specific Hen on their property will pay up when the 50-aO plan Is assured of being put In operation. If the resolutions are passed upon favorably tonight a special election will lie called upon the charter amend inenls which will give the council power to pass ordinances putting the plans into effect. It is generally understood by tb members of the council thnt under the resolution propei-tv owners who are as yet Hclmiptcnt will be given an extension iif from five to ten vears in which lo pay up. This mailer w be brought up tonight unit if neces sary an ninenilmenl will be introduced staling specifically (be terms of tin exlension.

The Mexiean members of ibe joint in Urmauonal fomrnKsion assured their American conferees today thftt reeent dere hy General f'arranzn fixing the taxation on mini up properties in Mexico were not intended to be con fiscatory in uny sense.
