The point came up when he cited from a tabulation of Oregon From the towns similar in size to Vernonia the rates charged by them for water esrvice. Contrary to opin ions that have been expressed by many water cutomers, the local rate of charge is low. He emphasized the rata here should be raised. That is a point to which budget committeemen should give serious consideration when they meet to draw the 1953-54 city cost sheet.

Ross, city engineer, in laying the tentative sewer system plan before the city council Mon. day made one statement that should be in the nature of a pleasant surprise to people on Corey hill where most of the system will be installed, if ap- proved. The surprise statement came when he told councilmen the suggested amount to charge for the connection of a house to the sewer main. General opinion previous to Monday had been that the connection charge would be approximately $300. Ross proposed tentatively that the con nections b? made for an amount of $50 each. That is consider ably less than $300 and no doubt will prove quite a factor to home owners in deciding whether they will back the proposition when it is placed before them at an elec tion. Another point of interest to water department customers was also pointed out by the engineer. Foot Injury Require* U»e of Crutches IN THURSDAY BACK THURSDAY Oregon Laundry ’ V S.
