Jones, one of the May or's portable audience during his re cent campaign, was appointed to the position of Deputy Sealerrf Weights nnd Measures, at a salary of $125 a month. The vacancy was created by the resignation of Fred Buchtel, w ho recently accepted the position of State Sealer of Weights and Measures. E. D. Jones, who Is no relation to B. V. Jones, was given the main position in the weights and measures depart ment. Mr. Jones has been In the work about five years.

Un til his appointment yesterday he was out of a Job. It Is believed the Mayor is rapldly lnytnaj plans for the protection of other friends. It la considered certain that one of his campaign promoters Is wait ing lor appointment to a place on the Dock Commission, which position will .be vacant If the Mayor la able to oust Dan Kellaher.

Friday evening and returned to Portland early yesterday. The balloon was driving toward the Cascades and had passed considerably further East than the place where the landing was made when the pilot, E. Unger. decided that It would be inad visable to attempt crossing the moun tains with the low supply of gas he had. Ballast was thrown out and the balloon rose until it struck a counter current and was swept back toward the west. An automobile was sum moned by telephone from La Center to bring them in. "The trip was not so exciting as we had expected," said H. V. Kadderly, who was one of the passengers in the bal loon. "The only thing that "got me' on the trip was the intense cold which we encountered in the high altitudes near the mountains. It was worse than any cold weather T ever experienced." Mr. Unger, the pilot, declared after the return to Portland that he would rather risk himself in a balloon any day than In the automobile that brougTit them back. Tom McLean, Mr. Unger's assistant, and J. O. Kammerer were the other two members of the party. BEACH TO BE ADVERTISED Xortli Bank Road Issnes Xew Folder Describing Oregon Coast.
