Commission
Votes For Change
In Meter Fine

The oft-proposed change in
fines for those convicted of de-
struction of parking meters, fl
nally passed the first reading
last night, by 3 to 2 vote. The
present ordinance provides a
mandatory fine of $3.50. This has
long been a bone of contention,
and has been accompanied by re-
quests from high ranking naval
officers that it be abolished
Those opposing any change in
the ordinance were Mayor w. W.
Demeritt and Commissioner Hun
ter Harden.
The amendment allows the
Municipal Judge to fine a con-
victed violator from $25 to $3.50.
Mayor Demeritt, referring to
the twelve smashed meters in the
past week,aSfoId4 his colleagues:
"You have voted to give them a
premium, when they are now
tearing up your parking meters
throughout the city"

An interchange OF letters be-
tween City Manager Ellingson
and Robert Dopp, director of pub
lie service, about the destruction
of old records, tires and worn
out equipment was read last
night at a meeting of the City
Commission. In this controversial
matter, the letters had a sharp
tone but were polite on the sur
face.
The City Manager admitted
that thee material destroyed by
Dopp was worthless, but repri-
manded Dopp for not consulting
the manager before the destruc-
ton.
In Dopp's answer to Ellingson's
charges of Sept. -, he declared
that the equipment was obsolete,
and that in the spirit of a clean
up, now going on in the yard adj
jacent to the City Hall, he had
ordered the equipment ana rec
ords destroyed. Dopp produced a
letter from Horace Averette, city
mechanic, supporting his state
ments.
Ellingson said that the proper
procedure was for the City Com
missioners to view the obsolete
equipment and then inform him
what was to be discarded or re-
tanned.
The commissioners approved,
by Al vote, Ellingson's view,
with Mayor w. w. Demeritt in
strong protest. The mayor said,
that is your job City Manager,
not ours. I'll never make any
such inspections as you recon-
mend"

Here in this one picture are quite few of the

The farmer is here in big way. He and our

income.
Some of the $4,000 General Mills men and
women who make and sell our products are also

share, 1920 of our sales income-S37, 100000
(ncluding pension benefits). This was an
increase of $500, 900 over the year before.

Ducks Gone, Bag
 Limit Down

PORTLAND, Ore. R)- Sharp curtailment in season and bag linn its on migratory waterfowl hunt ing are expected this year because of dwindling duck population, s D rtsmen's representative of Oregon, Washington, Idaho and N0ntana were told here Friday.
 Dr. Clarence Cottam, assistant chief Of the U. s. Fish and Wild Life Service, said the program had not yet been decided on but that he reductions were in prospect.
 The waterfowl situation is seri- ouS bat not hopeless, he said, in outlining the reduction in number of birds from 125,OOO,O0O in 1944 to about 54,0O0,00O this year.
 He said an open season of 30 days or less might be ordered, with daily kill limit on ducks of five and a corresponding reduc- ton in possession at one time. Last year the bag and possession limit was two.
 Gone forever are the good old days of long seasons and big bag limits," he said.
