Lofland of 225 South Oakdale avenue, whose home ad adjoins property on which the Coates Construction company proposes to build a large apart ment house, told the Mail Tri bune today there has been no compromise between the prop erty owners he represents in the neighborhood and the company, concerning the setback question. A story published yesterday concerning the city planning commission's favorable action on the Coates' building permit plea indicated a compromise had been reached. The company's plans for the $350,000 structure call for build ing within seven feet of the side walk. The neighboring property owners, according to L,oiiana, feel that the comDanv should be forced to adhere to the average setback for the vicinity, which would be not closer than 20 feet of the walk. Hoisting machinery used in the Butte, Mont., copper mines is i capable of lifting 15 tons of ore from a depth of 5000 feet in less than two minutes.

'A. 59 Attend League Of Cities Meet Here Last Night Fifty-nine representatives of southern Oregon cities and towns, and the League of Ore gon Cities, met at the Medford hotel last night for a regional meeting of the league. Hollis Smith, mayor of Dallas, Ore., presided. Two league consultants, Deen Seeger and Arnold Westling, were also present. Responsibilities Stressed Smith, who is president of the league, spoke briefly on some problems of municipal govern ment, and stressed the impor tance of citizens taking seriously their responsibilities in insur ing good government for cities. Too many times, he said, resi dents expect the impossible from their city officials simply be cause they do not understand the problems involved. An informal question and an swer period took up most of the four-hour meeting, as city offi cials exchanged experiences in regard to mutual problems. Dis cussion of budgetary matters was most prominent in the dis cussions. Fastest Growing Many of them arise, it was Dointed out, because Oregon is the fastest-growing state in the nation, and under the constitu tion budgets can be increased only six per cent in any one year without a special election. This has hampered many cities in providing necessary services and expanding their functions to take care of increases in cities' copulation. Many towns have adopted business tajces. similar to Medford's, to help solve their money worries. In Oregon alone, 25 cities have some tax of this type.
