The site, the report says, Is admirably suited for picnic and recreational use and Is needed to provide such facllltU? for local people and visitors. The county budget committee last spring set up a $10,000 fund for purchase of lands for recreational use. The Conservation council recommending that this year $30,000 be budgeted, and titled the. Douglas County Public Parks fund. The committee recommends that with the $30,000 the county employ, full or part time a person to head the county public parks department, who shall be instructed to perform the duties connected with acquisition, improvement, maintenance and supervision of recreational lands.

Barnhart urged prospective members to report at the next rehearsal, Monday at 7:30 p.m., in the junior high school music-room. He said It is necessary to bring the membership up to its newly-established strength so the music committee will know how much music to order. Preliminary plans, announced last Monday by Director Charles A. Ricketts, Include several out-of-town concerts early in the spring, climaxed by the home concert in Roseburg.

Cost is recommended shared by the road and acquisition funds. senators and representatives. That would not be changed by the Lodge amendment. If no candidate got 40 per cent of th i states' electoral votes, then under the Lucas provision, the 531 members of the Senate and House, voting as Individuals, would elect the president from the two highest candidates by a majority vote.

As originally introduced, the Lodge amendment would have eliminated any possibility of a presidential election being left up to Congress. The Constitution now provides that if any presidential candidate falls to get a majority currently 266 of the 531 electoral votes the House with each state getting one vote shall name a president. The Senate would elect a vice president In the same manner. Senator Taft (R Ohio), Senate GOP policy leader, opposed the proposed change. He told the Senate prior to the balloting that the proposed amendment would give "a tremendously disproportionate weight" to one-party states in presidential elections.

St. to remain, and possibly one or two others. To Minimize Confusion All other streets would be renamed and the present names not reused. This would be necessary, the committee feels, In or-der that the confusion during the readjustment period be held to a minimum, and that after the new names have become generally accepted and familiar, mall for those occasional obsolete ad-dresses would not be delivered to the wrong addressee. An examination of the map of Roseburg and the topography of the vicinity will reveal why a direct numerical or alphabetical system of street designations Is impractical, according to the committee.

This condition is further complicated by the lack of order or system of the present streets. The system outlined would permit two streets having similar relation to the bane of names but not the same street to be designated by name of similar characteristic; thus: an avenue on the west side would be called N.W. John Avenue and one in the east part of the town In a similar relation to Cass but me committee is conducting further investigation into the ac group has sung outside the city since the singers organized a year ago.
