East Side Site For Sewerage
Plant Backed By Engineers
By MAX WAICIIOI'E
The plans lor the expansion nd
Improvement of the Klamaih Falls
sewerage system were approved,
and an 800,000 bond issue asked,
by the city council last week.
The council asked the bond Is
tue alter many years ol study
and the plans lor the seweraiie
y.-stem improvement are based on
two reports compiled by John W.
Cunningham and Associates. Port
land rniiincering consulting firm.
The Cunningham company has
acted as consulting engineers on
tewerage, and other city projects,
lor many municipalities In the
Northwest.
The plans for the two trunk sew
erage lines have been discussed In
past articles appearing In the Her
ald and News last week. One trunk
would run from a point near Paint
er and Del Moro streets In Hot
Springs Addition to near Owens
nnd Shasta Way at the south city
limits. Tills line would relieve the
strain on the lines of all that por
tion of the city lying east of the
Southern Pacllic railroad lines and
marshaling yard. The other trunk
would connect with this one at the
stuth city limits and run to the
site of Hie proposed new treatment
plant along the SP tracks to where
Hilyard Avenue would cross the
track if extended.
ItKCO.M.MK.NDATIO.V
The Cunningham report analyzes
the reasons behind picking this lo
cation for the new treatment plant.
Jt recommended placing the new
plant on the east side of Klamath
River with a siphon line running
under the river from the present
treatment plant which Is located
on the west side of the river near
the Great Northern railroad bridge.
The present treatment plant would
then act as a pumping station to
pump the sewerage from the lines
serving the west side of town.
Although the Hilyard A"enue site
Is on marshy land, the engineer
ing firm feels that pilings or foun
dations sufficient to hold the plant
can be built without exorbitant
cost. The cost' of pilings, or foun
dations such as rock or gravel,
has been Included In the cost of
the plant.
The city now owns the land on
which the present treatment plant
la located but the plant
is obsolete and Inadequate by mod
ern standards, m has been stated
before. The Oregon Slate Sanitary
Authority has warned the city that
under present conditions some sol
ids and foam are being dumped
Into the river. It has ordered that
this be stopped as soon as prac
ticable. AtWIKKMKNT
All engineering authorities agree
that It would be Just as costly to
modernize the old plant as to
build a new one. Also, the old
plant, when modernized, would still
not be as good as a new one. With
this in mind, the east side site was
recommended by the Cunningham
linn.
71io engineering consultants state
If the Hilyard Avenue site proves
too marshy (lie plant site could
be moved to drier ground on the
east side still along the railiond
tracks. The city has yet to pur
chase any land for a site. That
would be done If the city's voters
approve the bond Issue in the May
18 primary.
The proposed new plant would
be built large enough to handle a
population of 30,000. On January
1, 1050 a state census estimate
slated that 18.000 persons resided
inside the city limits. City offi
cials Ircl that within 10 years the
population of the city Inside the
cily limits would reach 30.000. It
has been pointed out that a plant
capable of handling 30.000 popula
tion would cost relatively little
more than one tor only 20.000. The
basic units needed remain Jhe
same, the engineers state.
DOORS OPEN 6rSO P.M.
The new plant would be con
structed so that II the population
to be served ever exceeded 30.000
increments could be added to han
dle this greater 'population. Most
modern sewerage treatment plants
ire built with this long-range view
in mind.
With a modern and properly op
erated sewerage treatment plant
the odors would be practically
negligible, the engineers said. With
a -distance of a mile and a half
from the nearest business and resi
dential district, it can be predicted
with assurance that there will nev
er be any serious odor problem
from east side site. The west side
plant is somewhat clostr to mo
tels and residences.
The 1800,000 bond issus would be
repayed over a 20 year period. Un
official figures show Uist this would
mean a tax levy of 4.44 mills for
the first year. This would de
crease slightly each year as the
principal was repaid. The first
year this would mean a payment
of 18.03 on a property valued at
lio.ooo.
It has been stated by civic lead
ers and city officials that the Im
proved sewerage system and new
treatment plant are needed if Uie
cuy Is to experience any real
growth in the next decade.

Park Plan
Meet Held
PORTLAND Ifl Members of a
governor's Investigating committee
Indicated Saturday they are think
ing of a compromise settlement for
the dispute on whether to take
state parks away from the High
way commission.
They questioned a number of
witnesses In a hearing here on
their feeling about creation of a
state parks advisory committee
under the Highway Commission.
Proponents of a plan to create
a separate parks commission were
skeptical. Some said it might - be
worth trying, but others thought an
advisory group would not be
enough.
Parks now are administered hv
the Highway Commission. Critics
said the commission does not have
the time nor the Inclination to give
proper attention to parks. Thev
advocated an Independent narks
commission.

Charles E. Newton, executor of
Miss Cecelia Schroeder's estate,
told Sunday night about stumbling
Into a hidden room while making
an Inventory of the house's furnish
ings. The room was cluttered with
boxes and other Items. Newton
picked up one box and the top flew
open.
Inside was 14.460 In present-day
$100. (50, S20 and 5 bills, gold
watches and chains, $300 In old
gold coins. $100 In gold certifi
cates, a handful of old silver
looking 2-cent and 3-cent U.S. corns
of the Civil War period, and a
few old nickels and Indian-head
pennies.
The value of the old coins or of
other antiques In the Schroedy
home has not been determined.
They will be added to Cecelia
Schroeder's estate, most of which
will be used to support Protestant
and Catholic orphanages.
Other boxes disclosed frilly, and
romantic valentines addressed to
the sisters in 1906 old magazines,
the hide of a pet cow they kept
on their 6't acres of land, and
numerous other Items the sisters
had collected.
The house lacked running water
or a oainroom.
Newton found the secret room
as he was completing an inventory
of items In a bedroom. He pushed
aside a dresser to see if anything
had fallen to the floor behind it
and discovered a curtain and a
glass door, leading to the room
of treasures.
