"SOn'' Is Stranger
to Jack White at Foot
Ball Game In Mud

Officer Jack White saw his first
football game Thanksgiving day when
Salem hign school and Columbia uni
versity played on Willamette field and
Mr.. Whites presence at this particular
game was largely due to the fact that
George White, Mr.. Whites II year old
son, was stationed at right guard for
the Salem high. The quagmire that
was soon worked up in the middle Of
the field was evluent from the side
lines an after the first quarter every
man on both teams was smeared from
head to foot with Willamette mud
which coated friend and foe alike.
Mr.. White, ST., was plowing up and
down the side lines when a friend re-
marked that he did not know the Off
Ger was football fan. Jack answered
that he was not but as he had son
out there ne liked to look over the
company he was in.
"Is that so, Jack, which one is he "
81 don't know him." the officer
answered truthfully.
After the game Mr.. White gave it
as his opinion that it was an unfair
game as everyone appeared to want to
jump on one man and that it did not
matter much which one it was but they
all jumped on him just the same when
ever he tried to do anything and that
he thought that it was mighty discour-
aging for man to try to run when
someone sneaked in from behind and
grabbed him by the feet.

City Attorney Trindle
Explains Proposed New
Amendment to Charter

Some objection has been made to the
amendments upon the ground that they
will work in the interest of the wealthy
and against the poor people of the city.
This is mistaken idea, for the present
city charter could be used as an oppres
sive measure against people unable to
pay their assessments just as readily
as the amendment proposed, and in the
end so far as oppression is concerned
much more effectively. Under the pres
ent city charter the city council can
collect penalty of 25 per cent and
annual interest of Is per cent in the
event foreclosure is instituted, where
as under the proposed amendments the
penalty is reduced to 10 per cent and
then only when foreclosure suit is
instituted in the circuit court, and the
annual interest which certificates will
draw under the new amendments is IL
per cent in place of Is per cent as at
present.
1t is not the purpose of the council
nor has the council ever practised OPP
pressing any poor person who was not
in position to promptly pay his assess
ment as the same falls due. Where
payments are made just as rapidly as
the property owner is in position to do,
the city has been and we believe wi
continue to carry such part of the
assessment over due as is absolutely
necessary to accommodate the property
owner. But the council does feel that
people who are in position to pay as
sessments should pay them and not re-
quire the city to bear the extensive
burden which it is carrying at the pres
ent time.
The records at the city hall will dis
close that by far the greater part of
over due assessments are owing by
people of means who by making q lit
tie sacrifice or a little extra effort
could pay them if they so desired. They
are, however, allowing them to run over
due in such shape that it is costing
the tax payers of the city of Salem
several hundred dollars per annum
which could be saved if these assess
ments were collected. Many of the
persons owing such assessments are
uWuIt VI llb MtuhhNbN III tuO WY ShpA
ter and knowing it propose to let the
matter rest as it is, us they feel that
the chances are strong that the city
will make no effort to foreclose the
liens.
The situation as it stands may be
summed up in this statement. That
the property owners who pay theiI
taxes and assessments promptly are
now carrying an extra load of approx
-mately $4,000 per annum which prop
erly belongs to the people who are con
tinuously allowing their assessments tc
run over due. To pass the proposed
amendments simply gives to the city
council power and machinery will
which to enforce, where necessary, thu
payment of assessments so as that thu
expense of carrying the indebtedness
incident to the Improvement of street
will fall where it belongs. All person
who pay their assessments should vot
for the amendment, for it simply mean
that in the end considerable saving il
taxes to themselves will result.
