FILLING STATION WAR RESUMED AT COUNCILMEETING Two Ordinances to Allow Construction Are Intro- \ duced. Heavy cannonading on the filling station front was resumed again Monday night at' city council meeting with Introduction of ordinances designed to allow construction of filling stations at Delaware St. and the south side of Fall Creek and at Forty-Sixth St. and College Ave. The ordinances, "Sponsored by the city plan commission were introduced by majority faction Councilman Walter R. Dorsett. The last attempt of plan body members to provide filling station sites for oil companies was a proposal to rezone Fifty-Seventh St from Washington Blvd. to Central Ave. for business places. Reverses Self After three attempts to Induce council to authorize this measure, the plan body was forced to reverse itself at a special meeting Friday when enraged citizens presented a petition with nearly unanimous protest from property owners of that vicinity. Owners of the ground at the south approach of the Delaware St. bridge have tried for many months to obtain authorization for filling stations there. They also have refsawcd to allow the board of works to proceed with completion of approaches because the city has been unable to compensate them for'the ground, due to failure of property owners to pay assessments. Rauh to Battle The ordinances were referred to the city welfare committee, of which Councilman Otis E. Bartholomew, also of the majority faction Is chairman. That there will be no oil on the water for the ordinances was indicated by Councilman Edward B. Raub, who said he would '“oppose everything the plan commission is for on general principles, unless they prove they are right.” STATE MAY AID ROSS Gllliom to Be Asked to Defend Head of City Sanitary Board.

Bv Times PoecUil < OTTAWA, Ont., Aug. 17. —Race of harvest hands for the prairie provinces of Wesifern Canada is on, with prospects of a bumper crop in the Dominion despite the effect oC adverse conditions in some districts. Crop experts of the Canadian Pacific railway predict a wheat yield better than the five year average of 371,788,100 bushels. Railroads In Canada expect to move 55,000 In special trains to points in the West. Saskatchewan has sent out a call for 35.000 men, Manitoba will need about 8,000 and Alberta 12,000. Many of the harvesters will come from the eastern provinces of Canada, while thousands will arrive from the United States. First wheat harvest was reported In the Taber district of Alberta. Practically >lll the first crop of alfalfa has been cut throughout western Canada, while second cutting is under way in many areas. Danger from wheat rust is lessended this year, experts say, because of the shortness of straw on the grain. Oats, rye and barley are reported in excellent condition. Arrangements are being made by western farmers to keep many of the harvesters on throughout the winter because of the scarcity of farm help due to increasing employment, in the manufacturing industry.
