TO COLLECT TAXES DUE;
WILL SHUT OFF WATER
ASTORIA. Ore., Aug. fl. (AP) The
city of Astoria, launching a war In
which delinquent taxes are to be the
spoils, today employed the old mili
tary strategy of shutting off water
supplies to win Its cause.
The council pnsscrt an ordinance
permitting the city to shut off the
water supply of anyone who has not
paid the 103S levy. Notice of 10 days
must be given.
City Manager James Oonvllle said
the move was msde after an agree
ment had been readied with the
owners of the defaulted city bonds
and after the tax levy was cut In
half, only Hi per cent of the 1035 tax
has been pnld, he said, despite the
decreased levy, and the funds for fire
and police protection were dwindling.
The new ordinance declared that
"many owners of renl property are
enjoying use of such renl property
snd retain revenues therefrom with
out contributing to the expense of
maintaining such city governinont by
the payment of current taxes."

Position of the national parte ad- :
ministration in regard to the alleged i
barring of 600 school teachers rep re- ;
sentin,? Southwestern Teachers' col- i
lee from Crater Lake park was net ;
forth yesterday by David H. Can field
superintendent of the park.
According to Mr. Can field, it has
been the policy of the national park
officials to bar from the parks all
means of transportation operated for
private profit and for this reason
franchises have been granted In each
park for transportation from rail
heads to the park area.
"There Is no Southwestern Teach
ers' college except In the buses in
which it travels." Mr. Canfleld said.
"Passengers were not necessarily
teachers, but were recruited wherever
they could be solicited. Two-thirds
of the group did not vlalt the lake."
Promoters Given Bin me.
Promoters of the tour were familiar
with the park regulation on trans
portation, Mr. Canfleld said, and their
buses and equipment were barred
after all evidence had been submit
ted to the director of parks. No at
tempt was made to keep individual
members of the tour out of the park
area and all would have reached the
lake If the promotera had made prop
er arrangements with existing trans
portation facilities. Because mem
bers of the group were Innocent vic
tims, they were not charged.
Full right for commercial trans
portation have been granted under
the franchises and are under close
government supervision, Canfleld said.
To prevent commercialization of na
tional park areas, the regulation bar
ring transportation enterprises for
private profit has been enforced.

Southern Rufkien province today was
struck by a second typhoon which
ripped Inland from the eta, devas
tating a huge area.
Coming close behind yesterday's
hurricane, the new storm caused of
flclala to fear a terrific loss of life.
The typhoon was regarded as the
worst In a quarter of a century.
The brunt of today's storm appear
ed to hit the coast flo miles south of
here, smashing inland over the heav
ily populated area.
All communications were destroyed,
thereby shrouding the details of the ;
death and destruction believed to 1
have occurred. '
The heavy winds on the fringe of
the typhoon struck Amoy and wreck- j
ed fishing fleets close by.
Fragmentary dispatches from Chu-
anchow stated yesterday's disaster i
there was the worst In the history of
that area, eclipsing the great storm
of 1005 when typhontc winds and
rains simitar to that of yesterday laid
the whole area waste.
Valleys Flooded '
Yesterday's storm flooded the val- :
leys of the east and west rivers con
verging at Chuanchow. The depth of
waters reached unprecedented levels
and the reports which came through
said numerous villages were sub- i
merged.
Hslwel, a small market town north- 1
west of Chuanchow, was reported un- :

Heavy loss of life was reported
there when hundreds of persons were .
