"Finally, the retirement of these reservoir bonds, If Issued, would" not start until 1936 so that the present bond requirement schedule would not toe disturbed. The inter est on this reservoir Investment would be taken care of for the most part by money that heretofore has gone to maintain the old wood en line. According to the present outlook, the proposed bond Issue could be retired tn eight years after 1938. "THE MED FORD WATER COMMISSION." Medford. Oct. 18. Answering recent public attacks upon the new city reservoir pro posal made by former Mayor A. W. Pipes, the City Water Commission today issued the following public statement: "The Water Commission welcomes this opportunity to answer Mr. Pipes' objections, ' for It is only through discussion that all the facte can be brought before the Toting public. The Water Commis sion Is not Indulging In propaganda, as Mr. Pipes Inferred, but on the contrary has been making an earn est effort to explain the situation so that the voters may decide for themselves. "No attempt haa ever been made by the Water Commission to Induce the people to believe that the pro ject would Increase the city's In debtedness by only 30.000.00. The fact 1 that In the statement, pub lished In the October 13th tsaue of the Mall Tribune over the sig nature of the Water Commission the total cost to the city was set fortn as S79.760.OO. Newspaper accounts have from the start stated that the nronosed bond Issue Is for B0,- 000.00. the legal notice of the spec. lal election stated the bond issue is for $80,000.00 and that sum Is also specified on the ballot to be used by the voters.. "Mr. Pipes pointed out that the proposed t80.000.00 Issue Is subject to a tax levy. This Is true of all general obligation, bonds. In which classification practically all city bonda fall, including assessment bonds payable' by direct assessment on property. Water bonds are re tired directly from the water de partment revenue and In this case no departure will be made from that practice. These bonds would be serviced from water Income, with no Increase In the tax levy or water rates. "One of the reasons that the bonds are made general obligations Is that they are a higher type of ecurlty, commanding a greater price and benefitting from a lower Inter est rate. "In another communication Mr. Pipes listed three main objections aa follows: first. Increased reservoir capacity la not noeded at 'this time; second, the proposed cost Is almost twice too great; third, the proposed plan of conatructlon Is unwise and uneconomical'. .......... . . - "Answering the first objection, the Water Commission believes that with ' the Imminent abandonment of the old wooden line the new reservoir is an immediate and pressing need aa a safeguard to the City of Med- ford. The Oregon Insurance Bating Bureau la of the same opinion and states that If no additional storage la provided when the old line la abandoned Insurance rates for all mercantile buildings and their con tent will be raised four per cent. Additional pertinent facts have been and will be published by the Water Commission. "In reply to the second objection: the original estimate referred to by Mr. Pipes was for ioo.000.00. Bev eral rather large Items, omitted from the first plsns, have been Included In the present project because of the 45 per cent grant by the gov. rnment. The contract would be awarded on a competitive baals. Thus the reaevolr would be built at the lowest price the market af- f orda. "It should be pointed out In ans wering Mr. Pipes' third objection that the plans and location of the proposed reservoir were approved by one of the nation's most famous hydraulic engineers, the late D. C. Henney. The proposed reservoir was designed by F. C. Dlllsrd, now a member of the Oregon state board of engineering examiners. A reser voir of Identical plan but of I smaller scale was constructed In Ashland and haa given excellent service. Constructing the reservoir at a higher elevation Is Impractical because of the limited head avail able In the Big Butte Springs pipe line at It reservoir terminal. In BOWLING Tonight will be open-doubles night at the Smoke House bowling alleys, with all bowlers In the city invited. There will be no city league games. Last night the Mcdco five awamped the Al Piche rollers. 3-1. while Sehuss was doing the same thing to the Brill Metal team, by the same score. On Wednesday night the Rogue River Oolfera stepped off the links long enough to enamel the Economy Lumber squad, also by a 3-1 rating, and the Studebaker Champions made good their name by kicking the props out from under the Abbey Motor Co. team, 4-0.

In the annual SONS homecoming classic. And after that game a tradition that has been upheld since the founding of Southern Oregon Nor mal or a record that Albany col lege eyes with distaste, will be broken. For If the SONS lose to Albany tomorrow, it win be the first time In history that their homecoming has been marred by defeat. And Hi Albany Is whacked by the SONS, the national record for consecutive football reverses win be broken. At present, Albany la tn a triple tie with Knox and Hobart, each having dropped 27 straight decisions, and as the latter two's string of set backs have been ended, Albany and Albany alone has a chance of break ing the record for the title of tho "world's worst team." Knowing what would be their fate If one of the "dub" teams of Amer ica licked them, the SONS have undergone a furious and almost In spired practice week. With Coach Eberhart never letting them forgot the hallowed SONS "tradition" and the disgrace that will be theirs in case Albany wins, the entire squad has blasted through tough scrim- HURRY!!
