2-SALINAS CALIFORNIAN Friday, Sept. 23, 1966 BOND PROGRESS REPORT (Continued From Page 1) age will be an estimated 000 from both the 1963 and 1965 bonds, Road trunk sewer reinforcement: Joens hopes to see this bid early next year, at substantially reduced city cost through an anticipated federal grant. -Sewage Treatent Plant: Bids will be opened today on revision and expansion of Industrial waste ponds--the last of some $2.5 million in total treatment plant improvements. This, adds Dunne, may run some $100,000 over initial estimates, but is a substantially larger job than contemplated in 1963, Development plans were accelerated to meet needs of the projected Green Giant plant and less publicized expansion of existing Salinas food processing plants. Some Deferments Temporarily deferred is the $183,960 initially earmarked for construction of the Rosarita Drive outfall, Pacheco Street storm drain and Bernal Ditch enclosure.

These, explains Dunne, are priority projects," which will probably await determination of what, if any, funds remain available. Above ground, motorists and pedestrians are currently seeing the start of construction of Alisal Street, widening, the largest of six street improvements projects in the 1963 bond program. Resurfacing of Lincoln Avenue has been completed, along with installation of traffic signal at John and Pajaro Streets. A second signal at Salinas and Alisal will be installed as part of the current Alisal Street widening. Reconstruction of Clark Street will probably be done late next year, in coordination with Monterey County road work in the area.

Last on the list, says Joens, should be reconstruction of Market Street from the Southern Pacific Railroad crossing to Monterey Street. Earmarked for $24,000, this is now slated for 1968 or 1969, to be tied in with state highway improvements on North Main and Market and with overall plans for the downtown area. Final item in the 1963 bond passage was $63,350 for fire protection needs. The biggest chunk, $57,350, has been spent on training facilities at the Abbott Street station. Purchase of a northeast Salinas fire station site has been deferred until further development of the area makes it clear where new station should go.

Two items in the 1963 bond proposal were rejected by Salinas voters: widening of Salinas Street and funds for acquisition of future park sites. Sound or Lucky Looking back with the wisdom of hindsight, Dunne volunteers that voter judgment was probably sound-or lucky. With subsequent enactment of the federal open space program, local taxpayers can now use matching funds to get twice as much for their money. The city is taking advantage of this on a pay as you go basis, says Dunne. While it could hardly have been foreseen at the time, the narrow defeat may have been all for the best.

Salinas Street's future is now under study as part of the entire downtown traffic problem, with indications that the final solution may be better than the one defeated by voters in 1963. The three-part 1965 bond issue provided $1.7 million for storm and sanitary sewer work, 000 for widening of Sanborn Road overpass, and $88,000 for fire hydrant installations in the annexed Alisal area. The hydrant installations are about one-third completed. Work on Sanborn Road overpass, as indicated earlier, is expected to start this March. The Alisal-Bardin Road storm sewer representing about 75 per cent of the projected East Salinas storm drain improvements-is now being advertised for bid.

The remaining 25 per cent is reserved for city participation in neighborhood ment districts, as these are formed. Sewer Trunk Project Completing the picture is a projected sanitary sewer trunk line extending some two miles from Lake and California to Garner and Pacific Streets, which is now in the final design stage. This, too, is expected to get federal aid, with starting Salinas Valley Concrete Pipe Co. 35 Spring St. Phone 424-8024 Septic Tanks Concrete Pipe Trenching Machines Teamsters Voted in At Meyer's KING CITY Workers in the Meyer Tomatoes packing shed in King city voted yesterday for the Teamsters union as their collective bargaining representative.

Rites Set For DeMello In Seaside Funeral services for wellknown peninsula civic leader, Sam DeMello, 58, of Toro Park, will be conducted at 10 a.m. tomorrow at Cooke's Seaside Mortuary Chapel. Interment will be in Mission Memorial Park in Seaside. The Rev. Malcolm H.

Miner of St. Matthias' Episcopal Church, will officiate. DeMello died in a local hos. pital Wednesday night of a heart attack. De Mello had lived at Toro Park for about a year.

Prior to that he had lived in Seaside, where he operated the Dee Florist and Gift Shop. He was well known on the peninsula politically, having served as one of Del Rey Oaks' first councilmen and as mayor of the city from 1956 to 1958. He was active in the move towards incorporation of the city and also in the incorporation of Seaside in 1954. Known throughout the county for his fiery temperament. De Mello spearheaded the drive which resulted in adoption of a county building code in 1953.

He was a charter member and past president of the Seaside Chamber of Commerce and the Seaside Rotary Club and only last month resigned as chairman of the Monterey Refuse and Disposal District Board of Directors, He is survived by his widow, Barbara, and a daughter, Susan Jeanette, both of the family home; a step-son, George Clemens of Cupertino; and a brother, Arthur De Mello of Pacific Grove. Navy to Get More Planes WASHINGTON (UPI) -Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara has ordered a $700 million increase in combat aircraft production for the Viet Nam War, much of which will Navy. McNamara said Thursday beginning next July 1, 12- month production will be increased by about 280 fighter and attack planes. Tactical aircraft are now produced at a rate of from 800 to 1,000 a year.

The Navy, whose operations are entirely over North Viet Nam, will get a "majority" of the new craft, McNamara said. Navy air losses have been somewhat higher than expected. Obituaries schedule awaiting word from Washington, D.C, Where do we go from here? Anticipating the needs of a growing city is a continuing process, says Dunne, Construetion of a civic auditorium is the next but "certainly not the last" of the possible bond projects already under consideration. If the city council does go for an auditorium bond, indicates Dunne, it can do so on a sound financial basis. When the 1963 bond program was presented three years ago, the city manager points out, Salinas had an unobligated bonding capacity of $8.9 million.

At the end of this fiscal year the city's remaining bonding pacity will be scarcely $2 mil. lion less, despite intervening passage of $5.1 in additional bonds and without any increase in the property tax rate. Some of this, of course, is explained by retirement of the 1929 sewer and 1935 underpass bonds, plus retirement of the 1948 swimming pool bond this year. Equally important is the growth in assessed valuation, which boosted the city's total bonding capacity from $10.6 million in 1962 to $15.4 million today. City's Tax Reserve But the final factor, says Dunne, is the city's philosophy of reserving at least 50 per cent of its sales tax revenues for bonding and other capital improvement projects, rather than relying upon increased 1 property taxes.

So far, the philosophy seems to have proved a sound one, as evidenced by the $5.1 million in already realized or soon to be accomplished improvements, with the possibility of more to come. Work Set On Sewer Projects Work should start within four months on two major sewer projects approved by Salinas voters as part of the city's 1963 and 1965 bond issues. The go-ahead is an announce. ment today from the governor's office that the Department of Housing and Urban Development has aprpoved a pending city application for a $533,600 water and sewer facilities grant. Application was made last June and 1 work on the projects deferred awaiting the roughly 50 per cent federal financing.

Involved are the Natividad Road sewer trunk line and a second trunk line through the Carr Lake-Madera Ranch area to a new pumping station at Lake and California. The system will tie into the recently completed N. Salinas line and is expected to solve a problem of sewage overflow at Garner and Pacific, in northeast Alisal. The Natividad Road line will start at Bridge and Lake Street, through Carr Lake to Natividad and along there to Alvin City share of the total 238 project-all from bond funds -will be $683,638. Public Works Director Arnold Joens said the projects can go to bid as soon as some additional easements have been acquired and agreements signed with the federal goverment.

Completion is expected to take a year. The original Louvre in Paris originally was a fortress, and later served as a palace Bruce Ferrante Manuel Y.

Yom Kippur Starts Today SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) Philippine President Ferdinand E. Marcos planned a relaxing day of golf, sightseeing and talks with local businessmen today. It will be a welcome break for the slim war hero, who looked tired from his gruelling pace when he and his attractive wife arrived in the Bay Area Thursday afternoon from Washington and New York. He addressed a civic banquet Thursday night and told the 500 guests that President Johnson is a "great president" for his stand in resisting Red China's "war by proxy" in South Viet Nam, which Marcos said had become the "testing ground for China's policy of permanent revolution." He warned that China and Russia would reconcile their differences and isolate the United States should the U.S. abandon her role as the protector of the small countries of Asia against China.

He suggested this in turn might lead to nuclear war. By United Press International Yom Kippur, the most sacred and solemn of Jewish holy days, begins at sundown today. Jews throughout the world will observe it with 24 hours of fasting, prayer and worship. Yom Kippur is known as "the day of atonement." 1 It marks the end of the 10 high holy days during which a religious Jew is expected to take an annual spiritual inventory of his behavior, his relations with other men and his relationship with God. The liturgy for the opening service, which will be held In synagogues tonight, is called Nidre." It is a prayer for forgiveness, written about 13 centuries ago.

It is set to a haunting melody. Many devout Jews go without food or drink for the 24 hours of Yom Kippur. Some remain at prayer in the synagogue for the entire period.
