tion to three of the problems
now facing Uie city.
The first and most important
of the measures calls for a mill
and one-quarter continuing levy
to establish a retirement fund
for benefits to city police, fire
men and street employes.
That levy would raise ap
proximately $11,472 a year on
the city's present assessed valu
ation. Those employes are not
covered by social security.
The second measure before
the people calls for a quarter
mill levy for one year to set
up a park pavement fund, so
the city can defray its part of
the costs of paving portions of
streets adjacent to city-owned
parks.
Another paving project is the
basis for the third measure.
This calls for a half-mill levy
for one year to create a fund
to allow the city to go along
with private property owners in
small paving projects on streets
where there are city-owned
lots.
The cost of the improvement
of streets in front of municipally-owned
land would be added
to sale price of the lots, recov
ered on sale of the property
and put back into the revolv
ing fund.
Franey stressed that it is the
duty of every voter to acquaint
himself of the provisions and
need for the various measures,
then decide for himself whether
to vote for passage or rejection.
British Loan
Delay Looms
WASHINGTON. May 2 (JP)
The administration came reluct
antly to the conclusion today that
it probably cannot force a senate
showdown this week on the
$3,750,000,000 British loan.
Moreover it faced the possibil
ity of a long delay while the
senate considers draft and OPA
extension legislation if it fails
to wangle a decision early next
week.
Democratic Leader Barkley
(Ky.) didn't want to talk about
it. But Senator Wherry of
Nebraska, the republican whip,
told a reporter it is his opinion
that "if we don't vote by Mon
day or Tuesday, it will be a long
time before we do."
An administration lieutenant
who asked not to be named said
there appeared little chance of
a decision on any of several post
poned amendments this week,
even if Barkley holds the senate
in an unusual Saturday session.
Stassen Declines
Bid To Talk Here
An invitation' issued to for
mer Governor Harold Stassen
of Minnesota, to attend a re
publican rally here this spring,
was declined by the weU known
mid-westerner who advised re
publicans today that he would
not be on the west coast until
later in the year when he hoped
he would be able to accept the
bid.
Wyatt Padgett, Ipublicity
chairman for the republican
central committee, said today
that Stassen advised him of his
plans to be in this section later.
Padgett said the date of the re
publican rally would be an
nounced in the future.

OPA Blushes
At Price-Ups
WASHINGTON. May 2 UP)
OPA. embarrassed and surprised
at industry reports that prices
for men's suits are rising, set
out today to learn whether It's
true.
The agency launched an In
vestigation of prices after remov
ing a restriction which clothing
producers claim was blocking
delivery to retail stores of from
75 to 80 per cent of suits being
made.
"We are astounded, OPA said
in a statement last night, "by
trade reports that the new pric
ing order is causing increases
of from 5 to 25 per cent in
prices of men's suits."
This was a reference to a
price adjustment made in March.
At that time OPA said there
would be no general increase
in men's suit prices. The agency
expected higher prices for some
manufacturers, but It said these
would be offset by reductions
for others.
Thus far there have been few
if any reductions, but plenty
of increases, nrcnrriinir tn OPA'a
industry reports.

Turkey Output
Decline Seen
j SALEM, May 2 (?'( Oregon's
turkey production this year, In
I lin- with Hint nt ntht.r rtMt
states, will be down 40 per cent,
largely because of the feed short
age, Noel llennlon. extension
poultryman at Oregon State col
lege, said today.
The average reduction nation
ally will be 25 per cent. The
government had suggested that
the federal reduction be 15 per
cent and the stato reduction 17
per cent.
What the drastic reduction
means for Oregon turkey grow-'
ers was explained when Den-1
nlon said:
"It will be difficult to regain
lost markets and maintain high
quality of Oregon breeding
flocks with this much reduction. "
Bennlon said the poultry feed
shortage is more acute In Oregon
than other areas.
