KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON inn 9. 1041 OLD PROBLEMS AIRED BY CITY DADS AT MEET rlH father brousht a num ber of old problems out for air Ins at the council meeting Mon day night, were able to take care of a few and others tney laid over until the next council meeting with orders for further consideration. One thing the council ap proved and that was the par ticipation of the city family in the Fourth of July celebration. Mayor John H. Houston asked that the city employes be rep resented in the parade, either in a marching unit or a float. Councilman Harvey Martin said he planned to attend the celebration but wasn't too in terested in marching. Council man A. H. Bussman said he "wasn't too old to walk the 'length of Main street," and the council went on record for rep resentation in the big Fourth parade which will be handled by the Junior 'chamber of com merce. Much Interest was shown in regard to the city charter and Councilman Walter Wiesendan ger, chairman of the judiciary repe vA Caa m.ii.yi' ous charters from points k throughout the United States which the council will study. The matter of a new, up-to-date : charter will be presented on the fall ballot to Klamath Falls . voters. A citizens' committee ' will work with the council in revision of the old charter, Houston stated. The council argued for a half hour on the city's responsibili ty to property owners when city ewers cause damages which are definitely the result of the ' city's lines. It was finally de cided to pay F. W. Abbey, 939 Lincoln street, for damages caused by the city sewer to his ; property. The food handlers' problem was brought before the council i and this matter was laid over until next week. . B. Kail, ' chairman of the city board of health, advised the council that the board recommended the ex ' amlnation. Mayor Houston said Interested persons were in favor of the examination, the point of controversy was payment of the fee. "The decision now rests with the council whether they will pass the ordinance and attempt to enforce the law," Houston toted.- Hall told the council that Salem and Portland were the only cities in the state in w M c h the "law was really working." The' council approved the sale of two lots in Canal addition, Klamath avenue between Elev enth and Twelfth streets, to the Central Labor council, for the consideration of $1200. Accord ing to G. C. Tatman, secretary of the culinary alliance, the council plans to erect a labor temple there "after the war." Property owners in the city whose land lies next to city owned property, will have an opportunity to buy up some of 125 CEHTURV DISTILLING CO.. PEORIA.

We of America know what we are fighting for. And we LOVE what we know and aim to KEEP it, for ourselves and for our children. Hence the efficiency we are beginning to develop in war, WHAT we are beginning to ac complish is being done by Americans, working under the American system, in the demo cratic way. Hitler SNEERED at the demo cratic way said it wasn't ef ficient end so couldn't stand against efficient AUTOCRACY. War is a great teacher. It is beginning to teach the Hitlers that the democratic way of life, when it is GENUINE, as ours in America has been and is, can be TERRIBLY efficient '41 The proposed city budget for 1942-43, to be submitted for final approval to the city council next Monday night, is well below last year's budget, according to Ruth Olds Bathiany, city treasurer. Members of the budget com mittee, of which Mitchell Til lotion is chairman, have worked with city officials and council members to keep the budget as low as possible.. The budget, as it now stands, is $12,000 under that of last year and with a few changes which may be made dur ing the coming week, should re main near that figure, it was learned. Committee members have not taken advantage of the six per cent limitation and have used little of this amount. Due to war conditions, some changes over that of other years are noted in the budget and those interested said they hoped to increase the emergency fund as well as the police and fire department funds. Other Hems on the budget have been cut in order to increase the emergency, police aad fire funds, Mrs. Bath iany stated. The budget will be published immediately after adoption by the council.

Even If the scrap collection comes up to the largest estimates, he explained that there still would be a short age of rubber. Mr. Koosevolt Issued a little piece of advice to the people from the president of the United States: "If you have four tires on your csr make them last as long as you can. There are two ways to do this, by cutting mileage not essential mileage required In going to and from work at loast in half, and cutting down on speed." If these things are dona, ho said It was hoped that this ad vice would not have to be im plemented In soma way. The chief executive dlsassocl ated the rubber and gasoline problems, remarking that tho former was a nationwide matter and the latter was a problem principally on the eastern sea' board. WASHINGTON, June 9 (AP) A senate commiitee considering a bill to permit the allocation nf 3900 tons of crude rubber and 89,000 tons of reclaimed rubber each year for recapping and re trending of tires, was told today that this would permit operation of "at least 20,000,000 passenger cars." "I believe It has been defi nitely established," Senator El lender (D-La.) informed the sen ate banking committee, "that in order for this country to carry on Its war production program and maintain a sound civilian economy, we must have at least that number of passenger cars In operation." Normally, there are about 30, 000,000 passenger cars In opera tion. Ellender, chairman of a sen ate small business subcommittee on tires, and introducer of the measure, explained the rubber allocations would permit recap ping or retreading of 30,000,000 automobile tires "without In any way affecting adversely our war program." An average requirement of from one and a half to two and a half ounces of crude rubber would be ncded for each tire, he said, as an adhesive to bind the reclaimed rubber to the tire carcass. The total annual amount, he added, would repre sent "but a fraction of one per cent" of crude rubber stocks, which he estimated at 790,000 long tons.
