SALEM MAY PURCHASE
PAVING PLANT 70 BE
OPERATED BY THE CITY
Street Committee and Mayor
Will Investigate and Re-
port to Council

At a special meeting of the city coun-
| ell last night it. was decided that the
street committee and Mayor White
should go TO Portland and investigate
| the municipal paving plant in that city
/ and that the committee should also visit
other nearby cities to gain information
relative to paving plants. with a view
of purchasing one for Salem The com
mittee will make its report to the cOun-
ell and this body will either purchase
plant or refer it to the people. The
city will pay the expenses of the com
mittee while out of town making in
vestigatiOns. The success of the county
in laying hard surface pavement last
summer aroused the citizens of Salem
and caused them to become interested
in a municipal plant. Instead of pay
ing from 81 to - per square yard for
paving the people consider that the city
can lay the same pavement or almost
the same for about - cents per square
yard on the base already in place on the
streets.
Mayor White vetoed the garbage col
lection license bill wh1cn was passed at
the last meeting Of the city council.
This measure provided that no garbage
could be hauled unless a license of $50
per year was paid and since this would
give the one who paid the license

bill was vetoed and a substitute offer
