CITY PLANS TO END POLLUTION IN WHITE RIVER Propose to Use Washington Interceptor to Save McClure Beach. A. H Moore, city engineer today annotmred plan}, tor prevention of sewage pollution of White river to permit ir< of the MeClure bathing beach this summer. Sewage from the Broad Ripple area winch flows into White river above the beach will be pumped into the Washington boulevard interceptor and the overflow chlorinated, Moore said. The auxiliary pumping system at Fifty-sixth and Meridian streets eliminated the pollution sufficiently to permit opening of the beach last summer. Use of the pumping apparatus is only a temporary measure, Moore declared. Project Delayed Construction of the Fall Creek interceptor was designed to relieve the condition but the sanitary board had to readvertise for bids when the contractors price ran above the engineer's c-.time e. ine ooard has ordered the bond issue increased from $30,000 to S4O 000 for the interceptor from Talbott to Ruckle streets. City Engineer Moore expects to finally approve a plan for the Broad Ripple and Riverside area mam sewer system within a few days. The sanitary board engineers have been studying the north side sewage problem for two years with the view of providing additional facilities. It is understood that the city engineer plans to rnodiiy the plan of Charles H. Hurd, consulting engineer. who has been working on plans for the Broad Ripple project. Slack Inspects B ,J. T. Jeup, sanitary commissioner, has also made a thorough study of the situation. Mayor L. Ert Slack rec ently viewed the proposed route with Hurd. A conference to finally apprve the plan i expected to be held within a few days. No engineering estimate of the cost has been worked out, but it is likely that it will be about $400,000.

LUMBER GAINS AS PRICES AND DEMAND RISE Industry Faces Optimistic Outlook: Northwest Is Prosperous. Bn l nilfd Frrss PORTLAND. Ore., May 3.—The Pacific northwest, through its tim- ! ber. is more prosperous by approxi- | mately $5,000,000 than it was a year ago, and if lumbermen will be reasonable in production, a similar increase probably will be noted in the next year, it was declared here by C. S. Keith, president of the Ore-gon-American Lumber Company and one of the largest timber operators in the United States. The timber magnate's statement is the most optimistic given out here for at least six years. It was in 1923 that timber stocks in this vicinity started to pile up, and it took five years, or until last April, for holders to start liquidation. There are a number of causes for the greatly improved tone in the lumber trade, Keith explained. Foremost is that the supplies of the retailers have become exhausted, due to liquidation of the last year, so that the general consumer is virtually dependent on production for his needs. Another is that the southern pine supply is near the exhaustion point. The effect of this liquidation has been to increase the value of timber $4.50 a thousand feet since last April. This increase has been

gradual, with numerous small advances, and has increased the value of timber from $45,000,000 to $50,000,000 sir.ee that tune. The price has advanced $1.50 a thousand feet since Jan. 1, Keith said, sending values of $15,000,000 during the three-month period. And it is still climbing, he asserted. “The situation experienced the last five or six years has been identical to the one in 1927.” Keith said. “There were enormous supplies of timber on hand that it took five years to liquidate. In 1898 the supply had been liquidated and good prices were received for nine years, until 1907, when the money panic occurred. “The present lumber panic started in 1923 and did not start to abate until about a year ago. How long we will realize good business depends almost entirely on how •the lumbermen handle production. “The price of timber last April was the lowest ever experienced. It started to climb then and at the end of the year was $3 a thousand higher than it had been in April. Since that time it has advanced $1.50 a thousand.

Since then the congrgation has held its meetings in the assembly hall of the school. A program will precede the laying of the corner stone.
