THT3 MORNING OREGOXIAN. WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 3, 191Q. 12 NEW TOP AY. CITIZENS STQBM BOARD'S MEETING Residents of Southeast Port land Make Known Need for Better Water. RELIEF NOT YET IN SIGHT Official Give Assurance of Doing All In Power People Are Ad rised That ImproremenU Would Be Charged to TTsrr. With "taxation -without re-presentation" as their slogan, forty residents represent ing; the seTeral sections of Southeast Portland met with tha City Water Board in the council chambers yesterday after noon to dlscuaa the water situation and to make known their wants for a better system for the entire district. Several speeches were made in which many dif ferent views aa to the present water sup ply and tha methods employed by pri vate water concerns were expressed, but 11 agreed In the one view that the water aupply was Inadequate and that a new system must be Installed "even If they had to pay for It." It was with difficulty that the residents present were made to see that the Water Board was unable to meet their demands and that the only way relief could he given was to follow the provision of the charter as amended In WW. by which public Improvements of this sort shall be made by charging; the cost direct to the property owners. Some of the speak ers held that Inasmuch that they had been paying taxes Into the general fund, they should be entitled to recognition in the need of a new water system and that no discrimination should be shown in the matter. Mayor Simon explained the limits of the powers of the board and said that he personally believed that the amendment to tha charter should be re pealed and that Improvements of the kind discussed should be paid for by bond issues. Board W illing to Help. The Mavor assured the delegation that the Board had been considering the situ ation In the Mount Scott and allied dis tricts for some time and was willing to assist the residents aa far as possible, but that the property owners roust do their part before steps for immediate re lief can be taken. T. B. Wilcox, a member of the Water Board, said that the Board realised the importance of Southeast Portland and that the residents were entlUed to any thing they wanted In the way of public Improvements provided they were willing to pay for the Improvements. There seems to be a mistaken Idea on the part of many of your people that we have money In the bank to install a water system." said be. "Aa a matter of fact, the Board under the amended char ter cannot give you relief unless funds are especially created for such a purpose, and it remains for you. yourselves, to de cide that you want a new water system, and having so determined, let us know that you are willing to pay for it." Mr. Wilcox suggested that the people of the Seventh Ward appoint a commit tee of Ave persons to officially represent them at a special conference with the Board, at which time the matter would be gone over In detail and a programme decided upon for meeting the exigencies of the situation.

Long of Membership Feared. "The promiscuous circulation of un true statements regarding- the manage ment and condition of our affairs Is calculated to cost the order great loss of membership, and your committee Is of the opinion that the time has come when the order should enact leg islation which will effectually and for all time prohibit their circulation. Our head of floors, whoever they may be, are the chosen representatives of the entire membership, selected In a man nr provided by the laws of the order which they, the members, also pre pare and adopt for the government of all. and when the membership of this order has placed its seal of selection and approval on any man or measure, it becomes the bounden duty of every neighbor to obey In spirit, as well as In letter, tho expressed will of the ma jority. To refuse, or neglect to do so. and In public or private print to misrepresent and unjustly criticise the acts of those placed In authority by the governing body representing the entire membership Is Injurious to our society, and any member so offending should be promptly expelled. "Competition from without is alto gether proper and must be expected; tout unjust criticism, misrepresentation and opposition from within our own ranks Is a thousand times more de structive than any combination of le gitimate rivals for business that could possibly be effected. Competition from without we cannot control, but per sistent opposition from within can and should be taken care of by proper legal enactment. "Membership in our society is purely voluntary; there is nothing compulsory about It except the requirement to obey the laws, rules and usages of the order, and we Indorse the suggestion of the head consul that when a mem ber reaches the point where he cannot, or will not, adhere to his obligation, he should withdraw from menrbershlp." Report Is Adopted. There was little discussion of the report and this particular part of it, and it was adopted without a dissent ing vote.- An understanding went with the adoption of the recommendation that all offenses that .prompted the enactment of the vigorous legislation should be forgotten, the past wiped out and the order procede on the new basis. But it was also the understand ing that future offenses complained of shall be treated promptly through the trial boards, as provided in the new code of trial procedure and discipline. Lawyers In the convention continued argument all day yesterday, on the new trial procedure, while the convention re solved itself into committee of the whole to consider the report of the committee on legislation. It required a night ses sion last night to finish the discussion and get back into the convention to adopt the new measures. The convention yesterday placed itself on record aa favoring San Francisco as the city in which to hold the world's fair In oommemolatlon of tee completion ol the Panama Canal in 1915. by the adop tion of the following resolution presented by Thomas J.
