Power Plant Needs
$lO,0O0Inprovements

100000 power plant and crush
ing 1t like a toy house.
Other improvements contem-
plated by the council, which were
informally discussed today, are a
series of brick or hollow-tile bun
galows at LaGrande, to house OPP
orators and workmen.
The power plant Is a lis
grace at present." said Commits
sioner Atkins. I'VE have a beau
tiful plant with grass and flow
ers around the reservoir, but
right in the middle of the fore
ground is a group of tar-paper
shanties where the electricians
and operators reside. Thousands
Of tourists pass the plant every
year 1t ought to be a garden
spot in the heart Of the wilder
ness"
The council will order at least
$4,000 spent on improvements
according to plans today.
Aside from the $500 needed to
cover repair work, several thou
sands probably will be required
to tear away dangerous hills
above the plant to prevent a re-
currence of the slides.

city council to box the books and
store them until some plan of a
permanent structure is decided
on.
Librarian Kaiser will draw a
comparative plan for a system OF
