ATTENTION TO CITY
Street PAVING AND
COST SAVING URGED

The city council and the county
court are asked. in a resolution pass
ed at a meeting Of the North Salem
improvement association in the High
land school Friday night. to "give
more careful attention to the posi-
bilities of remedying" street condi-
tions in North Salem, and other parts
Of the city. with a view of paving
them. thereby saving the city unnee-
essary expense, and also relieving mo-
torists of much running costs. The
resolution as passed Friday night
reads:
Whereas the estimates of the city
street commissioner indicates that
the city of Salem is expending over
$500 per mile per year in a vain ef-
fort to keep in proper repair the
maeadamized parts of the main heavy
traffic arteries such as the Pacific
highway within the city limits and
the unpaved parts of Front street.
Capitol street and Highland avenue,
and
Whereas the heavy and increasing
traffic on these main arteries, due to
the paving of state and county high
ways to the north, destroys the ma
cadam surface as fast as it can be re-
paired, and this high cost of maInte-
nance is wasted so far as permanent
and satisfactory results are concern
ed, and
Whereas the 200 to 800 machines
a day using these rough macadam
traffic links in effect pay a toll of
at least one cent per mile for IN
creased depreciation wear and tear,
lost time, gas and tire expense, when
ftraveling on poor macadam as COM
pared with the same costs, when
driving on smooth pavement. and
for the low estimate of only 200 ma
chimes a day, the extra cost of ma
cadam to the driving public amounts
to over $500. per year per mile, and
Whereas, seither the $500 per mile
furnished by Salem tax payers, oil
the $7O0 and more per year added
expense to the driving public, will
pay interest at percent and in due
time retire the principal of one third
of the issue of bonds necessary tC
: pave these streets allowing s25,00t
per mile for that purpose, and
Whereas, the session laws Of 1919
foreseeing such contingencies, in chal
ters 70 and $40, give ample authority
both to the city council and the coun
ty court to cooperate with the own
ers of adjacent property to secure thu

Be it further resolved, that the
heavy tax payers. and all civic organ
izations, interested in the sound eco
nomic and creditable development OF
the city. be asked TO investigate the
possibility Of preventing the abso-
lutte waste of city street funds on
temporary betterments, where per-

same cost by a more flexible policy
of cooperation with owners of ad-

Police Seeking
Two Sean1en i'm
Rueckert Case
German Alien Who Left Ho.
boken Hurriedly Follow
ing the Murder and Man
Who Bought Gun Suspects

An entirely new turn was given yes
torday TO the investigation Of the mur-
der oe Fredei ick L. Ruockert, shot in
his home in Hoboken early Sunday
morning, apparently by burglar. The
Hoboken police are seeking a former
German seaman who left town hur-
rledly on the morning of the murder.
According to the police, the man ap-
pcared at his home at about 8 O'Clock
on Sunday morning in highly excited
state, announced to his wife that he
had been called to Ohio and Kissing
her. hurriedly departed and has not
been heard from since
The police believe the seaman knew
of the presence in Kueckert's home of
money and jewelry.
$1,000 Reward Offered
The police have learned that the Ger
man was seen lettering in front Of
Rueckert's home, at 1927 Washington
Street, last Friday morning.
Meantime. the police are continuing
their search for man who purchased d
the revolver with which Rueckert was
slain, He also was recognized as being
former German seaman. He was seen
purchasing the gun in a pawnshop, and
the police have good description of
him.
A reward of $4,000 was offered yes
terday for the apprehension of the
slayer by the White Metal Company,
of Hoboken, Of which the murdered
man was an official.
The police also arc seeking two
Syrlans who formerly were employed
in the White Metal Companys plant.
In January Miss Anna Fink, an en-
pIoyee of the company, was reported
missing. Lieutenant Donoghue, of the
Bureau of Missing Persons, Hoboken,
found her in New York with two Sy-
rians, also employed by the company.
During the investigation of the case
the Fink girl is declared to hava told
Lieutenant Donoghue that the Syrians
obtained positions with the company
IN order to procure secret formula for
the manufacture of the metal.
Possessed Other Formclas
The police also have uncovered the
fact that Rueckert brought further Sc
cret formulas to this country when he
returned from Europe early in the wear.
