BURIED MINERS
SAFE IF IN LOWER
LEVEL OF WORKS

jackson, Cal, Sept. Contrary
to first reports, diamond drilling
in the Kennedy mine in an effort to
tap the lower levels Of the Argo-
naut with a three inch hole for the
purpose Of forcing air, water and
food to the imprisoned miners, has
not yet been started. Representa-
tives of q diamond drilling com
pany of San Francisco who arrived
here last night, after going over
maps of the underground workings,
decided that there was no feasible
point of attack open as yet.
Among those conversant with con-
ditions in the underground work
ings Of the Argonaut and Kennedy
mines, great hope is gained from
the bulletin posted this morning
which says crews working in the
Kennedy have found a seepage of
pure cool air coming through from
the lower levels of the Argonaut,
indicating that the poison gases
from the fire in the main shaft of
the Argonaut at the 5000 foot level
failed to descend to the 4500, 1900
and 4s00 levels, where most Of the
Al entombed men were working at
the time that the fire broke out.
1t the men remained in the lower
levels, they are probably still safe,
providing they have been able to-
survive hunger.
The fact that water is also dripp-
ing through also indicates that the
men have water to slack their
thirst. 1t would be possible for
the men to survive without food,
providing their moral is good,
miners state.

Ordinance Levies
License Of 5000 On
Bakery w agons

The attempt of the dairy inter
ests of Salem to build up wall
of protection around their bust
ness and smother out competition
by means OF the proposed city or
dinance which was withdrawn
last night following attacks upon
it, calls to public attention SINH
lar ordinance, designed to relieve
the bakeries of Salem of outside
competition, that was actually
passed by the council and signed
by the mayor last month.
The ordinance, which levies a
license fee of 5000 per year on
every motor vehicle used in deliv-
ering bread manufactured outside
of Marion county, was passed by
the council August and was
made operative by the signature
Of Mayor Halvorsen on August g..
Were 1t not for the fact that

discriminatory legislation and
known to be unconstitutional, it
would be an effective barrier
against competition of outside
concerns for the Salem bakers.
Because of its unconstitutional ma
ture no attempt has been made to
enforce the ordinance, pat It
stands on the city's books along
with a host of other useless legis-
lation.
Attempts made this morning to
determine the authorship of the
ordinance were unavailing. I'm
like most ordinances passed by
the council and filed with the
city recorder this one does not
bear the name of the councilman
who introduced it. and members
of the ordinance committee did
not remember who first presented
the bill, but 1t was championed
before the council by Alderman
Patton.
