until the extension service, also was in 9:30 p.m. troduced, though she did not speak. The Proposal of Guy C. Myers Guy C. Myers, who came to Coos Bay for his initial visit Wednesday, secured national attention last year in connection with proposed financing of PUD districts in Nebraska.

That state, under the leadership of Senator George Norris, was on its way to acquire some $60,000,000 worth of light and power plants, payment being made with district bonds, secured solely by the property and the earnings of the various utilities. Myers had arranged to peddle the bonds at a high discount rate when the project became involved in court proceedings and at last reports, the deal is effectively blocked. Meanwhile Myers has been working in the state of Washington where PUD districts are flourishing. Last week he is reported to have closed deals in two southwestern Washington counties which are going into the electrical utility business, Myers acting as fiscal agent for the districts for a generous sum and also getting a percentage on the bond sales. So when he comes to Coos county, it must be known at the outset that he is interested in the promotion, the financing profit not in a long range profit growing out of successful operation of a water utility.

His proposal to Coos Bay is murky. He wants to organize a private company name unknown, capitalization unknown, backing unknown to purchase the local water system. He admits he is not now operating water plants. All he ostensibly asks from the communities is moral backingplus assurance of a franchise and of "cooperation" in operating the company. Myers "thinks" that he can pay out the cost of the purchase in 20 years at which time he "thinks" the cities could Lake over for little outlay.

These are highly speculative estimates; until the purchase price of the company were known, the bond interest rate determined, and the outlay needed over 20 years for new capital improvements were determined, no one could state what the fair price of the water system would be 20 years from now. The Times has for some time seen merit in public ownership of the water system on Coos Bay. Water, of all services furnished the public, is affected with a public interest. Operation of a water system is a function a city can well undertake; there is no great production problem, no difficult sales problem. The prime necessity is to acquire the property a city takes over at an equitable price, to finance it at low rates and to use good judgment in maintenance and extension of operation.

If the Coos Bay area, which by popular vote has rejected municipal ownership, should be willing to change its mind, ownership would need to be direct, with the two cities using their credit to secure the lowest possible rate on the bonds issued to acquire the plant. And if the cities are to have anything to do with operations they must have both the responsibiliy and the power. The proposal of Mr. Myers to have mayors or councilmen sit on the board of a private company, charged with the responsibility of operating the plant but granted none of the power to make final decisions is unworkable. If the cities here want to own and operate their water system let them do it.

If the privately owned system is, to continue, let it be in the hands of an expert, experienced and well-financed water company able and willing to meet the communities' needs as they develop and looking to profit from operation, not from issuance of securities. i "bully" shoes but no mention of maUe nnimaUy Twenty-five students can be ac In Milo Reed and Dr. R.

Spring Opening The primroses and the daffodils have been out for several weeks now so it's not strange that today the merchants of Marshfield announce their annual spring opening.

The season is early this year because Easter is to be observed March 24, a date Mr. Roosevelt has not been able to revise. For weeks businessmen of the community have been preparing for the new season. The work began last fall when buyers of the stores began selecting goods which fashion authorities knew would be in style this season. Then came shipments, arriving before the goods for the winter season were cleared away.

There followed unpacking, checking, marking, displaying of the new goods and now the entire community joins in announcing to its trade territory that spring in the stores as well as in nature-is at hand. It was only a few years ago that the metropolitan cities claimed a monopoly on the newest merchandise for spring and fall seasons. Now rapid transportation, fast delivery by mail and express and universal dissemination of news about the styles, has brought to each community a wealth of goods at prices and in styles that correspond to the best offered in large centers. Milady who wants new shoes and what lady does not at Easter time? will find the exact duplicates (usually at lower prices) in her home stores that she obtains in the cities. And a Hollywood men's shop cannot excel in styles those offered to men locally, for Coos Bay men's buyers go to Hollywood in winter to select the spring offerings for the home community.

Yes, spring is here, and it will not be long before the rainy season and the (lark clothes and all that talk about a long winter are forgotten. For women and men are chameleons who reflect in attitude the garb they wear. Marshfield is ready for spring and the merchandising cooperation of this annual chamber of commerce event is toilav carrying the message, through The Times, to readers in southwestern Oregon.
