CITY COUNCIL HEARS
PROVISIONS OF MILK
ORDINANCE PROPOSED
Measure Does Wot Meet Hearty
Reception at Hands of City
Dads Who Take no Action.

The first draft of the milk ordinance
in the framing of which representa-
tives OF the Women's Club. the county
agent. the dairymen, the city physician
and middle men who sell milk had a
hand was read to the council last
night.
The ordinance provides that the
dairy men must have license from the
city, the fee TO be regulated on a slid
ing scale with So as the minimum
charge for dairy of five cows or less.
For dairies with from six to 10 cows.
the fee is $40. and for every additional
COW above 10, an additional fifty cents
Is to be charged IL the measure is
adopted.
The ordinance would also permit the
city TO revoke licenses OF dairies in
cases where II is shown the law is not
being observed Provision is also
made for inspection of the premises
and equipment used where milk is
produced and bottled. 1t is provided
that the money secured from license
fees shall be placed in special fund
for defraying expenses of administra-
ton incurred in the enforcing of the
ordinance.
Two faults were found with the pro.
posed measure by members of the
council in the informal discussion that
followed its reading. There are no
provisions requiring n specified
amount of butter fat to he contained
in the milk sold in Pendleton. The
other crditicism was that no dairy
men could he reasonably expected to
comply with all the provisions of the
ordinance.
Estimates prepared by City Engineer
Frank r, Hayes for assessments in inn
provement districts Nos. so and 81
were submitted to the council.
