This condition brought about by the higher wages paid, and demand for men, in the National Defense work. This Department lost one man, and four others were lined up to quit and oo 'to work at higher wages elsewhere if an 'adjustment was not made in these wages. Yours Very truly, T. G. McCrory ,. Water Superintendent CITY OF ANACORTES Uashingto n `later Department Honorable Mayor and City Council Gentlemen: Anacortes, `Nash., July 21,1942 In the Street Department three men had an opportunity to quit and take outside work at a higher wage, which they were contemplating doing, if their mage had not been adjusted.

McCro.ry City Engineer CITY OF AlWORTES Washington Fire Department Honorable Mayor and City Council Gentlemen: Anacortes, `:lash. , July 21,1942 During the past six months, two firemen have left the service on account of lova salary. Had these swages continued, four additional men would have turned in ,their resignations. Respectfully yours, L. E. Snider Fire Chief 11 1 1 1 1 CITY OF ANA"ORTES' 'Washington Denartment Anacortes, Wash., July 21,1942 Honorable Mayor, and City Council, Gentlemen: I respectively wish to call your attention to a critical condition •%,hich exists in the police department at this time, and one %,1hich it was impossible for any one to have foreseen, and which has been brought about mainly by the war.in -fhich we have not become actively involved. Three officers have left the department in the last six months to accept positions paying a much higher salary, and offering shorter hours. One of these officers was a man who has had more than eight years ex- perience as a law enforcement officer in this city and was a grave loss to the department. At least three other officers have received offers of positions paying a much higher salary than they are nor-; receiving and will no doubt resign .in the near future unless something can be done to relieve this situation. I I believe you all realize that during the past year at least the cost of living has increased to a very great extent and at the present wage scale it is almost imoossible to make ends meet. I wish also to say that at no time have any of these men been dis- satisfied with their jobs but that they can not continue at the present rate of pay. j I urgently request that you give this your earnest consideration as it is impossible for the department to function efficiently unless we can hold the men long enough to train them properly and for them to gain the necessary experience. Respectively yours, H. H. Iiinshaw Chief of Police 1 Havin-; covered the business of the evening a rmotion was made by Brady and seconded by Okerlund ,.hat the meeting of the city council adjourn.

To the City of Anacortes, and to the City Council of the City of Anacortes, Anacortes, �lashington. On August 8, 1930, your City entered into a written contract with the Puget Sound Pulp & T�)mber Co. which said Contract has been modified from time to time, the last modification thereof having been made on Nov. 7, 1936. On Nov. 15, 1940 the Puget Sound Pulp & Timber Co. assigned its interest in the before -mentioned Contract as amended and supplemented, to the Anacortes Pulp Co. and on Dec- ember 17, 1940, the Council of your city passed Ordinance No.920 approving the s4id assignment; and on Dec. 18, 1940, the undersigned Anacortes Pulp Co. pursuant to the terms of the assignment of said contract and said ordinance No.920, made its agreement to perform all of the obligations arising out of -said water contract and the modi- fications and supplements thereto. Since the assignment of said contract to the undersigned, the United States of America has become involved in a world wide war and as a result thereof many regulations have been passed and orders issued which have worked a hardship on individuals and corporations with- out their consent and without any choice on their part. As a result of the issuance of Order No. Td -251 of the ;'Jar Production Board, the Anacortes Pulp Co. has been compelled -to close its plant and cease the operation thereof for the reason that, under said order, it is impos- sible to obtain logs for manufacture intp pulp. It is not known how long this order will remain in effect, Or how soon the undersigned will be able to obtain logs and again resume operations. The Anacortes Pulp Co. is ready and willing and desires to operate ijrs plant just as soon as restrictions to a normal operation are removed, and until that time it seems but right and equitable that the minimum monthly charge for water under the before -mentioned Con- tract and modifications thereof, be reduced at least 50% and that such reduction take effect as of Nov. 1, 1942.. we are reluctant to Dake this application but at the time the Contract was made noone anticipated that this thiscountry would be governed and controlled by Saar conditi.ons. Hoping that you will gike this your early and serious consider- ation we beg to remain, Yours very truly, ANACORTES PULP CO. By John ZcKirdy,, JR.

The following communication from the members of the Anacortes Civilian Defense Council was presented and read to the City Council: "To the Honorable Llayor and City Council: Anacortes, ,Tashin-ton. Gentlemen: At the time of the appointment of the members of the Anacortes Civilian Defense Council by the "Layor, it was the understanding of the six members, then comprising the Colncil,that they hereto act only in the capacity -of colsulting or advisory board to the heads of the several units or departments of the Anacortes Emergency Civilian Defense,' that the functions and activities of the Council would ceptor around the planning and execution of matters connected with actual civilian defense only, such as air raids and similar emergencies projected through enemy action. Since -the appointment of the members of this C.D. Council, two members have resigned, one of these being its chairman, and the duties and responsibilities of the Council have fallen upon the remaining four rpernbers, one of these being chosen to act as temporary chairman.. At this time ire, the members of this Defense Council, wish to call your attention to the fact that the assigned duties and responsi- bilities have become as numerous and complex, the program delegated to us by the 'Jashington State Defense Office, and indeed, the entire OCD setup, so exacting and extensive, that we are unable to cope with them. 'le are all regularly employed or occupied with our own work in order to make a living, and none of us have the necessary time to devote to handle these projects in the manner or along the lines laid down for. their management. In order to anywhere nearly comply with the requirements of the national OCD pro;rarn, the services of a full-time Co-ordinator, with the necessary secretarial assistance, are Pecessary. This fact is plainly indicated after a survey of the multiple functions of the program, and is recognized and urged by the national and state heads of the OCD. This, as we see it, can only be arranged on a salary basis, to insure success, Therefore, tiie members of the Defense Council, recognizing the usbolute responsibility of the city of Anacortes, as regards its civilian defense program, recommend the appointment of a Coordinator of Civilian Defense at the suggested salary of $p100.00 per month, and a I Secretary at the suggested salary of $125 per month, in order to ade- quately carry on the OCD program in this city. Ue recommend that these salaries be flexible, thus permitting adjustment if necessary, and that they be considered in effect as of Jan. lst, 1943. %e should appreciate your immediate attentidn and consideration of this matter, that we may plan accordingly. Respectfully yours, Fred F. E116son, Tem•p.Chairman '6'1m. Affleck Philip A.

'P looking to the sale of timber standing upon certain real property owned by the City. Since that time I talked with your .later Superintendent and was told that he had been trying to get a cruise of the timber from the State Land Commissioner's office but had not received the same.

The Anacortes Veneer, Inc. is willing to enter into negotiations for the purchase of the timber standing upon the hereinafter described property and to log the same either on select logging basis or on outright purchase of all merchantable timber. If the City feel that it cannot sell the timber in question without ad- vertising and selling at public auction, it is respectfully re- quested that the City advertise such timber as it.is willing to sell with as little delay as possible. The property above referred to and from 7h.ich the Anacortes Veneer, Inc. desires to purchase the merchantable timber is des- cribed as follows: The South one-half of the Northwest Quarter; All of the Southwest Quarter; The Northeast Quarter of the Southeast.

L.K. Snider, chief of the fire department, spoke to the city council at some length about the sawdust pile at the Fidalgo Bay Lumber Co. located at 29th and S. Ave. The fire chief stated that he suggested the building of a dutch oven, or burner, to burn up the sawdust. The fire chief stated further t that A nothing was done to remove the fire hazard caused by the presence of the sawdust pile by December 1,,1942m that the mill would have to clo(,e down. The fire chief stated further that nothing had been done at the ,present°,time. due largely to the lact of necessary priorities to obtain materials. 1.1r. Howard Stewart, an official of the Fidalgo Bay Lumber Co. spoke to the oity council about disposing; of the sawdust pile, and assured the city council t, hat, �hls-.company_woald do -all.tin their power to build a dutch overs to burn the sawdust as soon as the necessary material could be purchased. h1r. Stewart did not give any definite date when the dutch oven would be completed, or when the sawdust pile would be removed. The following report was presented and read to the city council: "'To the Hayor and Common Council: Your Comkittee to whom was referred the matter of a communicati6n from the Anacortes Pulp Co. dated November 17, 1942, requested a reduction in X16 minimum grater rat@ ;during a shut -down resulting from an order of the Czar Production Board (Order No. I.I-251) beg leave to report as follows: Under the terms of a contract dated August 8, 1930, with the Puget Sound Pulpy Tfumber Co. as subsequently modified, the minimum water rate to be paid by the said company under any contingency whatever w was $1,000 per month. That on or about December 17, 1940, the said contract was assigned by the said Tuget Sound Pulp x Timber Co. to the Anacortes Pulp. Under th6 terms of the said assignment as duly approved by the City of Anacortes, ,the Anacortes Pulp Co. agreed in writing to perform I- I 1 December 1, 1942. all of the obligations arising out of said contract. That the above mentioned contract as modified is a twenty uear contract and the minimin rate to the pulp mill which is no event is less that ?1,000.00 was the established minimum rate at the time of the passage of Ordinance 895 providing for and authorizing the issuance of ?518,000 of refunding bonds. The said ordinance 895 constitutes a contract between the City of Anacortes and the pur- chasers of the said refunding bonds. One of the provisions of the said contract set up in Section 5 of the sqid ordinance reads as follows: "It is hereby especially covenanted and agreed that the cant em])lated replacements t,) the system having an esti- mated Cost of approximately $40,000 will be made promptly and that the presently prevailing rates for water service will not be reduced prior to November lst, 1948, unless the further replacement work is cojupleted as recommended by the engineers and having an estimated cost of approxi- mately '130,000, inclusive of said item of 4"40,000.00." The replace-Inent ti'rorlt as recommended by the engineers to an estimated cost of ,P130,000 has not been completed. It can therefore be seen that if the City should reduce the minimum prevailing rate to the Anacortes Pulp Co., it would violate the provisions of its contract with the Holders of the refunding bonds. vle-, therefore, recommend that the request of the Anacortes Pulp Co. be refused.
