I PERL Funeral Home SPACIOUS PARKING LOT Tokyo fOPfl The world's largest city is running. out of space, but the Japanese may solve the problem by building a new city. -r , Some of Japan's leading civic and industrial planners are pushing a plan to double the size of Tokyo by building a new, complementary city in Tokyo Bay. . ' . The plan, the brainchild of Kyuro Kano, former : Japan Housing Corporation presi dent, is not as far-fetched as it might seem. And it s beyond the talking stage. A rudi mentary plan already has been submitted to the govern ment and Kano believes It will be adopted as part of the government program before too long, probably with ' the tenure of Premier' Hayato Ikeda. (There is no' way 1 to tell how long Ikeda will be in office, however.) 1 1 Calls for Reclamation ' ' Basically, the plan calls for reclamation of some" 260 squire miles of Tokyo Bay by dredging and filling, prefer ably dredging because that'a cheaper. It would cost about $10.5 billion, Kano estimates. That's about what lt'eosts'the United States to support its Army for one year and onlv one-fourth of what the United States spends annually on all its defense. ' ! The plan could solve ail of the population problems of Tokyo for years to come. But that s not the primary reason ing behind it. The main goal, Kano explained in an inter view, -is to build ;the nation's economy by providing more space for .industrial expansion arid more and better harbor facilities. ' ". Because of Japan's depend ence on raw materials from abroad, Kano'1 explained, Japanese industries have, be come concentrated nearport areas, resulting in tremendous overcrowding. The pressures for expansive land along 'the shores of Tokyo'Bay Have be come ' tremendous, - but the land is extremely limited: The population growth makes It more serious.' ' ' ' '' 1 , Shortage of Site ' '" ' 'Tokyo, In other words, is sandwiched in between- a dire shortage - of 'Industrial and dwelling sites,' and the rapidly worsening congestion result ing from population -growth and inadequate transportation facilities," Kano said,, posing at the same time the question: "Is there any way of solving this oppressive problem?" ' He and other members of the Council for Industry Plan ning think the reclamation of Tokyo Bay is' the only -feasible answer. .-: ' ; The council's preliminary surveys show that- about -two-thirds of bay: area (about 260 square miles) can be reclaim ed economically. " I' Kano estimated th a-t 'it would take 30 years to com plete the project. The coun cil's master plan provides for a five-year planning ' survey before the first dredging be gins 'or the first shovel ' oil earth is turned. After that the city would be finished In' at least 25 years. ' . ' ' One of the biggest 'prob lems, Kano said; would' bit providing adequate water-for private and industrial' use. To provide it the council 'has sub mitted a separate plan for con struction of a huge dam on the Tone River capable of holding 800 million tons of water.-The dam Is a must before the plan for reclaiming Tokyo Bay could be carried out. ' -' ' ' t The way the council plans Forgot Bail Bat; Screams Scare Thief Hamilton, Ont. -.OUT) - Mrs. Alice Arbour, an 84-year-old widow, forgot to take . her baseball bat to bed with her for the first time in four years, But she .found some burglars scare just as easy r with, a scream. - v Mrs. Arbour said she woke up early Sunday morning to find an intruder In her bed room shining a light in her face. She reached for : her trusty bat, but it was'nt there. "So," she said, "I just let out a couple of screams and he ran like a deer." .... Mrs. Arbour was perturbed at her lost chance to use the baseball bat. I never had a chance to use it until today," she said, "then I blew it all." Power Line Jolt Kills Porflander Salem - (VPS - Duane T. Lev clalr, 40, Portland, was ap parently electrocuted Sunday as he was working at a PGE substation near the peniten tiary annex 2 miles southeast of here. . . ; ' LeClair apparently brushed against a 57,000 volt power line as he was working on a 28-foot tower. He fell to the ground and landed head first on a transformer base. Apparent cause of death was listed as electrical shock. It, the work on the dam would start at the same time the survey for the new elty in the bay would begin, s Commercial Facillilea , The Dlan calls for commer cial port facilities capable of handling the largest foresee able ships (100,000 tons or more), elevated or- under ground highways with no level crossings for arterial routes and, wide multi-lane streets for regular traffic. Streets and highways would comprise at least 30 per cent of the reclaimed land, stand ard in most major cities, Kano said. "Unless the Tokyo Bay rec lamation project is under taken, there will arise enor mous difficulties In connec tion with the hoped for growth of the economy and expansion of trade and indus try," Kano said. "The work is absolutely . essential if Japan is to continue to grow." Savings Bond Sales Increase in County Sales of Series E and H sav ings bonds in Jackson county Increased more than $15,000 last month over October, 1959, according to Morris B. Leon ard, Medford, Jackson county chairman. Sales last month totaled $80,309, he said, compared to $64,402 in October, 1959. Sales through Oct. 31 this year totaled $845,612 In Jack son county, compared to $738, 350 for the same period in 1959. STREET MILEAGE There are an estimated 300, 000 miles of streets in the U.S. Actor Guy Madison Seeks Separation Rome -IUPB- American actor Guy Madison, 38, said today he has asked an Italian court for legal separation from his wife, Sheila, 28. The actor, who has been filming "The Slave of Rome" here and in Yugoslavia, said his wife would get custody of their three children under the separation agreement. "There's no more bitterness between us than could be ex pected," Madison said of the breakup of his marriage, "We tried to patch things up here in Rome this past summer but it Just didn't work." ' The separation was asked on grounds of incompatibility. Madison said an American divorce probably would fol low later. The Madison's three chil dren are Brlgette 5, Arin 4, and Dolly 3.
