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 city recorder is now in corrc
spondence wilb a bonding liousi
which proposes to refund till Mcd-
lord paving bonds at " per cent,
compared to the C per cent now being
paid. II is I bought more liberal
lenns can be made lo delimiuenls be
cause of Ibis change.

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.
The real purpose of the i'aimnza
government was twofold, they said,
beinir both to mie internal revenue
and foster development of Mexican
industries. The Mexican representa
tives stated further that the scheme
adopted was designed to put into op
eration projKuties now lying- dormant
and also to make the burden of tax
ation fall heavier upon the larger op
erations. Today the commissioners devoted
their attention to a study of the ef
fect oii Anieriean-uwiied properties in
