    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. Two
cent meters, signified by two

the padres, who had no me

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.

which has passages reaching 240

the 13 years of its existence and
built up a reserve of $217,095.
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.

nor Earl Snell urged Oregonlans
today to contribute to the March
of Dimes campaign, asserting
the fight against Infantile para
lysis will not be won until every
trace of It has been wiped from
the country.
He said in a statement:
"The day when poliomyelitis
will be vanquished can be
brought closer by our contribu
tions to the fight which is being
waged against this menace.
"Lives broken by Infantile
paralysis are among our great
est tragedies. The help we give
now will connlribute much to
the rehabilitation of thousands
who suffer from pnralysk: and
the research made possible by
these funds will help in finding
the cause and cure. I should
like to urge that all Oregonlans
cooperate fully In this fine hu
manitarian cause."
