AVIATOR DROPS TO EARTH Al'GTJSTT'S POST FALLS 60 FEET, BUT IS ONXT BRUISED. WASHINGTON. Dec 1 (Special.) A resolution to Impeach Secretary of the Interior Bellinger may ba introduced in the House early -next week by the Dem ocrats. A well-denned rumor Is cur rent that Representative Heflln. of Ala bama, may Introduce it Heflln Is close personal friend of Representative James, of Kentucky, who Is a member of tha Balllnger-Plnchot investigating committee. While the demands for Impeachment, if made, will be based largely on tha evi dence Introduced and the findings made by the minority of this Investigating committee. It will not accord with cus tom for a member of tha committee Itself to introduce such a resolution in ad vance of the receipt of the full report of tha committee by Congress. Final Decision Not Made. It is not understood here'that the Dem ocrats have determined finally upon the move. Tha minority members of the committee are expected to meet tomor row, and If any action is taken along this or any other Una In the near future it will probably ba decided at this meeting Rumors to the effect that an impeach ment step is contemplated have reached tha ears of Senator Nelson, chairman of tha investigating committee, and some of his colleagues on ths Republican side. Some of the Democratic leaders now here regard the Impeachment resolution Idea as one calculated to throw a bomb into the Republican camp at the outset of the session. They count upon the sup port of friends of Glfford Plnchot on the Republican side of both the House and Senate to help them stir up trouble on this Issue. Insurgent Ilelp Expected. Representative Madison, of Kansas, Republican insurgent, who Is also a member of the BaDtnger-Plnchot Inves tigating committee, is understood to have found against Secretary Balllnger, as have all the Democrats on the commit tee, but Mr. Madison's objections are on slightly different grounds. Neverthe less the Democrats count on htm to bring to the support of their resolution much of the Insurgent strength In the House, as well as some of the regulars who are opposed to Mr. Balllnger. The Democrats, however, are not work ing in conjunction with. Mr. Madison and his friends, but merely count them as added strength In the event the contro versy Is renewed by the Introduction of an Impeachment resolution. EXCHANGE NOT FAVORED PUSH CLUB VOTES AGAINST STREET VACATIONS, ' Committee to Assist In Securing Rlghts-of-Way for Broadway Bridge From O. R. & N. By motion adopted last night, the North East Side Improvement Asso ciation went on record against ths East Portland street vacations, and requested the right of way committee to assist the Mayor in securing rights of way for the Broadway bridge with out reference to street vacations. It was held that the O. R. A N. Co. still needs concessions for the Railroad bridge and must have them, and the future negotiations will be an ex change of concessions actually quired for the Railroad and Broadway bridges. C. H. Thompson, chairman of the right of way committee, was in structed to take tha matter up with the Mayor at ones. W. C. North opposed this action. Hs contended that as the contract for the erection of the substructure of the Broadway bridge would soon be let It was the duty of tha city officials to take steps for securing the rights of way for the approaches to the bridge. and that these could be obtained before the bridge would be completed in the river. "Let us lot mix with the vacation of streets in East Portland," declared Mr. North, "but leave that matter to the people of East Portland. Let us drop all questions south of Sullivan's Gulch of whatever nature, and let this club take the stand that it is the duty of our officials to get the rights of way for the Broadway bridge without outside considerations." It was decided that negotiations for rights of way should go on In order to expedite proceedings to secure them, and if these fail then condemnation proceedings will be favored. Councilman Menefee announced that the city will erect in Upper Alblna, on the city's property on the south side of Russell street, a water collector's building that will cost between $20.- 000 and 2d,000 the coming year. This building will be the headquarters for the water plant north of Sullivan's Gulch, .and will be located between Williams and Rodney avenues.

Bearing .ten Red Cross stamps and marked "special delivery." a let ter was mailed In the local postoffice today. Evidently the sender believed the ten stamps were Government stamps and would carry the letter in haste to whom it was addressed. A well-known business man also mads a similar mistake, placing sev eral Red Cross stamps on a package containing a photograph and mailing It. Postmaster Crowley suggests that tha rled Cross stamps be placed on the back of letters. Instead of tha face so as not to confuse the postoffice em ployes. However, in nearly every case, the sender places the stamps on the front of tba letter where they can be seen, and where they add to the at tractiveness of tha package.
