The council had a long dis
cussion in regular session, and
afterwards at a meeting of Ihe
council as a whole, of a proposed
change in the city ordinance
reguluting the hours of barber
shops.
Barber Shop Hours
Before the council was a pro
posal to change the ordinance
for closing of barber shops at B
p. in. instead of 9 p. m. on Sat
urday nights. This is in con
formity with an agreement be
tween master and journeyman
barbers to go into effect June 16.
Councilman K o 1 1 1 n Cantrull
asked if the city had authority
to regulate barber shop hours
by ordinance. There was a long
discussion of this point, Cantrall
finally moving for repeal of the
barber shop hours ordinance. He
withdrew the motion later to
permit reference of Uie legal
questions in the matter to City
Attorney D. E. Van Vector for
formal opinion.
"I haven't anything against the
barbers or the closing hours sug
gested." said Cantrall. "It I
merely a mutter as to whether
we have authority to do it, and
if we haven't. I think the sooner
we quit bluffing and get such
ordinances off the books, the
better. Let s not keep ordinances '
on which our city attorney can-1
not stand legally. '
Van Vae'.or indicated he would .
make a report next Monday
night. I
Councilman Canlrall's motion
for repeal was seconded by Coun
cilman Keller, who agreed to its
withdrawal. Councilman Buss
man averred that if the city or
dinance would dictate to a small
barber shop owner, working his
own shop, as to the hours he
could run his business, he was
against it.
Mayor Houston pointed out the
ordinance had been in effect 15
years
James Swansen, representing
master barbers, said that change
in the ordinance was a part of
the union agreement that settled
a threatened strike. Without the
ordinance, he said, barber shops
would be running at all hours.
Bus Stops
The council in regular session
agreed to a plan permitting the
Greyhound bus company to make
stops at 070 Klamath avenue
and at the Elk hotel for working
baggage and taking on and let
ting olf passengers.
A representative of the com
pany told the city fathers that
the company's sub-lease In the

Mayor Houston was given the
job of working out a plan for
trading properly at Cook and
