Portland's heaviest rainfall in a 24-hour period since November 6, 1903, waa recorded at 8 o'clock yesterday morning, when the gauge showed 3.06 Inches. Continuous showers through out the day were responsible for elides along many of the heaviest traveled roads in the county and. should the downpour continue, many et these may be made impassable. No hope for a cessa Tour today was held forecaster "Wells, who mentioned, however, a slight possibility that the rain would turn to snow, as is the case in Tacoma. Special hourly river readings were taken yesterday from points along the upper Willamette in order to give warning of flood danger. Water was found highest at Salem and Jefferson, the latter on the Santiam, both points registering 13.4 feet. At Portland it it was 9.4, but Mr. Wells says it will continue to rise today until it reaches about 12 feet, remaining nearly sta tionary at that point until Wednesday and falling thereafter. While the Wil lamette is coming up rapidly, it is not expected to cause any damage. Fonr Inches Kail.

Sunday to the same hour yesterday of 2.01 inches. There is now a deficiency in the nor mal figures from September to date tit only 3.37 inches. While showers are not particularly reeded here, they are, according . to Mr. Wells, no doubt causing joy in other parts of the northwest. Walla Walla reported 1.06 inches of rainfall which will be of great benefit to wheat fields. Practically every sta tion in the state reported some rain. While the 3.06-inches fall in Port land is unusually heavy, it is by no means a record breaker.

A party consisting of John M. Scott, general passenger agent; H. A. Hin shaw, general freight agent, and A.

While plans for the party while in Portland have not been announced. it is expected that the railroad ex ecutive will spend several days here. President C. R.

Continuance of the present demoralized conditions in the dis tribution of cars to the Pacific north west will continue after the railroads j are returned to their private ownere if eastern carriers succeed in put ting through their plans for a car service commission and "fail to have northwest representation on that body, J. H. Bloedel, Seattle lumber man, said today upon his return from an eastern trip. The rumored plans for this commission, Mr. Bloedel said, call for its formation along lines similar to the car service section of the United States railroad adminis tration. It would handle the dis tribution of freight cars by agree ment. This agreement, unless the northwest is directly represented in the proposed commission, doubtless would not relieve the present seri ous car shortage that Is threatening to disrupt the vast lumber industry of this section. Railroad Men Seen. Mr. Bloedel, while in the east, was asked to represent the West Coast Lumbermen's association in the car shortage situation. At Chicago, with Major E. G. Griggs, of Tacoma, he saw R. H. Aishton. regional director of the railroad administration for the western division. In Washington, D. C, by arrangement through Senator Poindexter, he held a conference with W. S. Kendall, chairman of the car service section of the railroad administration. Summed up by Mr. Bloedel, the car shortage is due to two things: Pres sure by the southern democracy to get cars whether any other district dos, and ignorance of the car serv ice section of the needs of the north est. This ignorance, he said. is due to lack of representation of the orthwest on the committee of sec- ion which has direct chaage of dis tribution. So long as the government opera- on of roads continues, conditions can be no better. Air. Bloedel be- ieves. Railroad administration af fairs are in chaotic state. Even the plan put forward by Mr, Bloedel and Mr. Merrill to relieve the orthwest situation met no ready re sponse by Mr. .Kendall. Retailers Back Move. This plan was the old expedient dopted by the veteran railroad man ames J. Hill, It was to bill empties train lots direct through to the Pacific coast. Their arrival then would be certain. Two thousand retail lumber deal- rs attending the Northwest Retail Lumber Dealers' association conven- ion in Minneapolis, visited by Mr. Bloedel on his return trip, stand be hind the Pacific northwest manu facturers in their complaint and stand just as powerless. The whole cry of their convention, he said, was, W e want lumber and we cannot get it." We recognize, said Mr. Bloedel, speaking for the lumbermen before Mr. Kendall, "that there is a gen eral car shortage in the United States. This is due to many reasons. We have no complaint against not receiving all the cars that we used to receive, but we do complain against the unfair discrimination in he present method of distribution. For the last three months of 1919 we received but 30 per cent of our needed supply of cars, or 2000 cars less than we received for the same three months of the year previous. And this in spite of an increased lumber production. "But the south and the north are not so affected. They have received as much as 75 per cent of their needed car supply. There is the injustice. It is of that discrimination we com plain. CLUB ROOMS DISCUSSED I Community- Service Conference of Y. SI. C. A. Is Held.

Keep your - kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which removes the body's urinous waste and stimulates them to their normal activity. The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. In 24 hours they strain from it 500 grains of acid and waste, eo we can readily understand the vital importance of keeping the kidneys active. Drink lots of water you can't drink too much; also get from any pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salte; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morn ing for a few days and your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in jure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone Bhould take now and then to keep their kidneys clean and active.

Tastes Denied by Old Classmate, Who Tells of Visit in England. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Jan. 26. (Special.) Dr. Henry D. Sheldon, dean of the school of educa tion here, who was a friend and col lege mate of Herbert Hoover at Stan ford in the middle '90s, rises to the defense of Mr. Hoover from Senator Reed's charge that he is pro-British in tastes and sympathies. When I was over in London in May, 1912, during my tour of inspec tion of the English .schools, I took luncheon with Hoover. He had then been over there about ten years, and I had some idea that he might be getting rather English in his waVs and thoughts. So I got him to give me his impressions of England and the English. I found him instead rather critical of English society and politics. This is a bad place to bring up children,' he said. "In this undemocratic atmosphere there isn't enough chance for individuality; it's better for the youngsters to give and take more knocks.' " Lloyd George, he said, was about the only man in public life who had the welfare of the common people at heart and who meant business. Lloyd George at that time was chancellor of the exchequer, engaged in his big fight with the Lords over the budget system. Mr. Hoover, Dr. Sheldon said today, was just as plain and simple and democratic in his ways although he was then very wealthy owing to his connections as mining engineer with wealthy British concerns. He later lost most of this money. Dr. Sheldon recalls many instances indicating Hoover's democracy, effi ciency and popularity at Stanford. JEFFERSON REVIEW SOLD G. W.

The easiest to use and quickest drying Fhampoo that we can recommend to our readers is one that brings oat all the natural beauty of the hair and may be enjoyed at very little expense, by dissolving a teaspoonful of can throx which can be obtained from any druggist, in a cup ot hot water. This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid, enough eo tt ia easy to apply It to all the hair Instead of just to the to) of the head. This, when rubbed into the 6calp and onto every stratul of hair, chemically dissolves all impuri ties. It Is very soothing and cooling in its action, as well as beneficial to both ecalp and hair. After rinsins out the lather so created, you will find the scalp is fresh, clean and free from dandruff, while the hair drica quickly and evenly, developing: a bright luster and a soft fluffines that makes it seem very heavy.
