No definite action was taken by the committee representing the various wo men's clubs in Portland toward building an auditorium in the city at a meeting held yesterday afternoon. After outlin ing conditions as they appeared, the committee asked to be allowed' further time for investigation before submitting a report to a mass meeting of the wo men's clubs to be held soon. This re quest was allowed. Thata great structure costing approxi mately $300,000 and covering an entire block will surely toe built was the state ment made last night by Mrs. H. A. Heppner. chairman of the committee and president of the Monday Club. Mrs. Heppner said: "There is no doubt but that our end can be accomplished if we keep up. our united effort, and I believe the women are all enthusiastic enough to carry the plan through. But even should this not be accomplished by the women's clubs, the Monday Club has definitely decided to have an auditorium and if the women do not act as a unit the single organiza tion will follow another plan to have the building built. "We want an entire block, close to the center of the .city. The members of the committee have been assiduously looking for such a location and have found sev eral prospective sites. It appears very hard to find an entire block close in on the West Side, such as we would want, and -that la one of the reasons we have asked for additional time. But the de mand of the city is for an auditorium covering an entire block and we will keep at it until we get it. There are several smaller auditoriums already. in fact, plenty of such buildings, but the real need of the city is something wnich will be larger and better. "For this purpose we shall need not less than $300,000 for the building alone, regardless of the site. We propose now to issue stock among the clubwomen to handle the purchase of the site and to issue bonds for the erection of the build ing. We have many assurances of sup port and all the clubs, as clubs, seem enthusiastic and I believe will Indorse the plan. The Jewish Women's Society cannot go into the plan as a club owing to the fact that they have already con tracted to build a Neighborhood House in South Portland, but they have assured ua of their unqualified support and have agreed to purchase stock and to interest as much capital as possible in the plan." BEACH PROPERTY. We have for sale one of the finest platting propositions on the Coast, con sisting o; twenty acres at Elk Creek. The beach is wide and one of the finest in the country; scenery is unsurpassed; woods on the property are like a beau tiful park; railroad will be built at the rear of property.
