Land Use
In Oregon
Outlined by Bureau
Eugene-Information on the
land use pattern in 33 Ore
gon cities is outlined in a
recent publication of the Uni
versity of Oregon bureau of
municipal research and serv
ice.
Survey's indicate that an
average of 35.4 per cent of
the developed land in the 33
cities is devoted to residential
use; 4.1 per cent is in com
mercial use;11.4 per. cent in
industrial use; 18.8 per cent
to public and semi-public use;
and 30.3 per cent to street
right-ofcway.
The study indicates consid
erable variation in the land
use of different cities. Areas
in use for industrial purposes,
at the time the bureau con
ducted the survey, ranged
from 0.7 per cent to 35.4 per
acres of residential land per
different cities. Commercial
land uses ranged from 0.2 per
cent to 12.4 per cent.
The survey also showed an
average of .4 acres of de
veloped land for every 100
persons in the 33 cities. This
included an average oi .a
acres of residendial land per
100 person, 4.2 acres of street
rightof-way, 2.6 acres of pub
lic and semi-public land, 1.6
acres of industrial land, and
0.57 acres of commercial land.
Detailed Information.
The study, which includes
detailed information on the
33 cities, covered city sizes
from Columbia City to Eu
gene. The information for 31
of the cities was gathered by
the bureau in connection with
studies carried out during the
three and a half year federal
program of urban planning as
sistance. Private planning con
sultants provided the infor
mation on two cities.
The information has been
compiled and anlayzed to pro
vide background information
for city planning commissions
and city councils in establish
ing and modifying zoning re
strictions. However, the re
port points out that the com
pilation should not be regard
ed as "providing a standard
that can safely be followed
in making decisions with ref
erence to zoning. The tabula
tions reveal wide differences
in land use in different cities.
These differences reflect such
factors as the economic base
of the city, the period and
rate of growth, location in
relation to other urban cen
ters, and the extent and na
ture of fringe development."
The study shows a close re
lationship between population

Patterns
Cities
ed to residential and com
mercial use and street right
of way. However, there is less
relationship between popula
tion and industrial land use,
partly because some indus
tries tend to locate just out
side of cities.
The land use information
relates entirely to land within
city boundaries. There is also
little correlation between pop
ulation and the amount of
land In public use, partly be
cause political and geograph
ical considerations vary from
city to city.

Minimum Wage
Bill Slated for
Senate Debate
Washington -WPD- The Sen
ate planned to open debate
today on President Kennedy's
$1.25-an-hour minimum wage
bill.
Kennedy's Senate chiefs
faced a battle against conserv
atives who want to trim the
increase in the present $l-an-hour
federal wage floor and
limit the number of new work
ers brought under the law's
coverage.
Sen. Pat McNamara CD-
Mich)., sponsor of the Ken
nedy-backed minimum wage
bill, predicted it would pass
Congress. The measure would
provide gradual hikes to $1.25
for 23.9 million workers al
ready covered and extend pro
tection to 4.1 million addition
al mostly in retail and service
establishments.
But conservatives, whose
House brethren succeeded in
passing a sharply curtailed
version of the President's re
quest, have warned they
would try to cut down the
Senate measure.
Other congressional news:
Housing: The AFL-CIO call
ed for large boosts In the long-
range housing program rec
ommended by Kennedy. The
labor organization forecast
tragic consequences if the na
tion failed to build many
more homes than ever before.
It said urban renewal grants
should be increased from
Kennedy's proposed $2.5 bil
lion in four years to $6.25
billion in 10 years.
Prices: Chairman Estes Ke-
fauver of the Senate antitrust
subcommittee opened hear
ings into the nation's largest
price -fixing conspiracy. The
Tennessee Democrat said wit
nesses from eight electrical
equipment firms would, be
asked whether higher-ups con
doned price rigging.
Delinquency: The Senate
Wednesday passed and
sent to the House a bill auth
orizing a four-year; $20 mil
lion battle against Juvenile
delinquency. The measure
would authorize $2.5 million a
year to develop crime control
techniques and another $2.5
million annually to help states
and communities train per
sonnel to work with Juvenile
lawbreakers.
