Council And On Reduced A one-hour discussion on the fee to be charged circuses final ly simmered down to agreement an a Hat $125 charge for each performance or $250 per day on agreement today between the city council and the county court. At last night's council session, an appeal to reduce the $1500 carnival fee was made by Waldo T. Tupper of the Clyde Beatty , circus who advised the council that this fee was "the highest current license in the United States." Tupper explained that he was "on the spot" as far as routing the circus from Reno north was concerned and he would have to meet demands of the city. Final ly the city fathers agreed to charge $125 per performance or S250 per day on a two-performance schedule. The Clyde Beatty circus Is slated to play here for one day on June 12. The circus will seat 2923 persons and carries 15 cars with the outfit's fire apparatus coming overland. Highest by Comparison Tupper said he "couldn't be lieve his eyes" when he saw the $1500 fee as set forth by ordi nance. Medford charges $75 per performance for circuses or $150 per day, he said, and the city of Portland charges $7.50 per car. Tupper told the council that statistics show it "takes four adults to take a child to the cir cus" and he felt that no child's life was complete without the experience of a circus. Finally the council agTeed to take the matter up with the county court in view of the fact that the fee will go to the coun ty which sets the amount ac cording to state law to coincide with that charged by the nearest municipality. The council and Hector De Baets went into a lengthy hud dle on an exchange of property between the city and DeBaets whose home property is located on a section adjoining Recrea tion park. Recently Councilman Paul O. Landry and Harvey Mar tin took the matter in hand and found a city owned lot on Apple gate which they have offered to DeBaets with the agreement that the city would move DeBaets home, build a concrete founda tion, and give a deed to a 50-foot lot in exchange for DeBaets' 25 foot lot. The new property is on a paved street. City Offer Refused After lengthy discussion De Baets advised the council he didn't like the idea and inas much as there is a two-foot drop in the property from the side walk and the city does not feel that it can make a fill, the offer was rejected. On motion of - Councilman Rollin Cantrall, De Baets is to notify the clerk's of fice when he decides on the mat ter.

What the situation looks like Is I new division of Euroiie into 'competing spheres of influence, with a dividing line about where the armies stopped fighting on V-E Day, and with Russia on one side of it and the United States and Britain (und maybo France) on the other side. Such an alignment would be packed with possibilities of trouble. THERE is always the chance that Russia is reaching for everything that Is loose In the world and proposes to take all she can get away with, but no more. Secretary Byrnes' "ulti matum" (expressed more pacif ically as a 'choice" that Ruosla can make) is probably an effort to find out what is what.
