Row Looms On Parking Meter Use The initial skirmish In a pos ilble parking meter fight wai to be taken before the city council at 2 o'clock thii after noon by representatives of sev eral trucking companies and local merchants. Mayor Ed Ostendorf called a special meeting of the council to hear the arguments. Charles F. Bane, manager of the Bend Portland Freight company, said his complaint was that loading zones are needed in several spots on the main downtown streets, but are not provided. Donald Sloan of the Sloan company said that the council had evidently overlooked the .fact that it was Just as neces sary for retailers to receive their goods as it was for them to sell. Both men cited instances In which their drivers were nearly arrested when they were forced to double park in order to de liver merchandise. A discussion of the meters is also expected to take up a large part of the council's regu lar meeting time tonight, since both truckers and merchants have expressed strong opinions against having the devices in front of business houses. Some 500 citizens, mouse trapped by the parking meters during the first day of opera tion Saturday, beat a path to the police station booking desk to tell sad stories to the desk sergeant and ante up 50-cent penalty fees. Most of them came across with the best grace possible, but a few grumbled that they should have been given Just a warning ticket for the first of fense. Police Chief Orville Hamilton demurred with a statement that all the advance newspaper and radio publicity was ample warning for everybody. . One woman this morning told of putting her nickel into the meter back of her parked car. But that explanation mere ly elicited a chuckle at the - booking desk and a demonstra tion ot the proper technique on a dummy meter at the desk. She paid 50 cents. Another complaint which was roundly disregarded was from a government employe, driver of a car furnished by the government, who said that although his Uncle Sam sup plied him a car and travel pay, he didn't furnish nickels and pennies to put into parking meters. The 12-minute and 24-minute, one and two cent meters were giving many people a bad time. People were putting in a nickel and getting clipped on their time. There are one-ceipt meters, good for 12 minutes parking in front of the liquor store, Medical-Dental building and bus depot. They're denoted by one black band across the top.

Power Company Men Rescue Cat From Power Pole Three men of the California Oregon Power company service crew answered an emergency call at 8:15 Monday morning rom Henley, and rescued a little white cat perched on the power lines. The cat, apparently frightened by dogs, had climbed the pole some time Saturday night, dug its claws into the high line arm, 45 feet above the ground, and sat there howling over the week end among 66,000 volts of elec tricity. A Henley resident, disturbed by the stricken yowls through out two nights and a day, finally called the power company. Vernon Keesee, Phil Quisen berry and Bill Carter went out on the call. Carter climbed the pole and after soothing the frightened animal was able to remove it from the high line arm.

In the 13 years history of KPCA dividends over $48,600 have been paid out by the asso ciation to stockholders and . on the original government loan, Farmers and stockmen in Klam ath. Lake counties in Oregon and the northern portion of Mo doc and Siskiyou in (.aiuoruia have received loans amounting to $27,879,000. Of the S2S0.000 loaned by the government 13 years ago, all but $25,000 is now paid off. An average of 25 farm loans a week are made by the asso ciation, A. B. Robertson of the Pro duction Credit corporation, Spo kane, giving a brief history oi the association, remembered the first meeting, held just 13 years ago in the basement ot tne cuy library with 23 present. From this nucleus the association nas erown to its present member ship of 417 stockholders. When the capital stock reaches $200,000 and the re serve stock $250,000, Robertson pointed out that the association can. operate on its own power. He believes that government capital can be retired in the next three years. This is the full aim of the directors, he explained. . Prices are undoubtedly going down and splurging on extra land can bring a "devil of a licking,-" Robertson said. Econ omists predict a decline of about 15 per cent in farm incomes for 1947 with the rising costs on machinery and labor. On such a basis farmers were advised against heavy debt and long term commitments. Some interesting comparisons brought out by Robertson showed that in 1919, 310 sacks of spuds would pay off a $1,000 debt. In 1932 it would take 1587 sacks to do it and in 1946, 488 sacks would pay off the same debt. William A.
