Committee appointments made by
Main Trunk Shepherd yesterday after

field; Program committee, Hal Hoss;

Irving T. Rau drew the attention of
the Wires to the fact that the street
signs on the majority .of -the Oregon
City thoroughfares have become so
ageworn that where the remaining few
exist is impossible to read them. Con
siderable approval of the plan to ask
the city to take the matter in hand,
was voiced and Main Trunk Price,
then acting, appointed Rau as a com
mittee of one to handle the matter.
Percy Caufield urged the erection
of a sign, upon the elevator with the
words "Oregon City Free Municipal
- elevator to Residence Section of City,''
so that it would be visible from the
railroad right of way. The matter
was referred to the publicity depart
ment of the commercial club, with the
recommendation that they take care
of the matter without asking the city
for any aid.
Fake Schemes Scored
Spurilous advertising schemes
which are being presented to the
merchants of the city were scored by
Ralph Shephard, pointing to two fake
"railroad" magazines for which adver
tising space was being sold. A. G.
Beattie, secretary of the local business
men's association called attention to
the checking service that organization
provides for all solicitation and urged
greater cooperation to safeguard le
gitimate enterprise. He also described
the workings of that department of
the association.
Th question of community relief
work was broached by Al Price, point
ing to the work of the Elks during the
Thanksgiving season From the idea
of aiding the order in their humana-
tarian activities, plans for a commun
ity chest to take care of all Oregon
City benevolent work, were discussed.
Main. Trunk Shepherd was empowered
to appoint a committee to Investigate
the feasability of the idea and report
next Tuesday.
TAXPAYERS NAMED TO
DRAFT COUNTY BUDGET

Gribble, Canby and H. W. Kanne, of
Ardenwald, were selected by the coun
ty court yesterday as the taxpayers to
sit w,ith that body in the framing of
the 1923 budget. The total county
budget for all purposes amounted to
nearly $1,000,000 last year, and if the
six per cent limitation is invoked, the
amount to be levied for the coming
year will reach seven figures. Work
upon the framing of the city budget
for the coming year is practically com
pleted. It is expected that the final o.
k. of the committee will be placed up
on the plan before the end of the
week. The large part of the detail
work is finished, but decision as to
the road improvements is yet to be
made, and to some degree is contin
gent upon the action at the tax pay
ers meeting next Saturday upon the
proposed 2 mill levy. .,
The increasing of the levy road pur
poses to 3 mills has been talked but
the heavy burden of city taxes is ex
pected to preclude action The pas
sage of only the millage necessary to
provide for Oregon City's portion of
the payment. upon the new Willamette
river bridge is to be asked, unless the
present plan is changed. .

MAN HUNT IS STARTED
Ventura, Cal., Nov. 16. livery of
ficer of the law in Ventura county
was working today upon solution of
the mysetery shooting, late last night,
of Buell Barrows, 21-year-old youth,
while his pretty 17-year-old sweet
heart, Hazel Hilton, looked on. The
shooting occurred near Ventura
Beach, about a mile from town, short
ly after 11 o'clock last night.
Officers who had worked on the
case all night reported this morning
that they had made no progress in ap
prehending the murderer. However,
after questioning the girl, the of
ficers stated their theory of the shoot
ing is that young Barrows was the
victim of mistaken identity and that
he and Miss Hilton had been mistaken
for some other couple.
According to the girl's stcry of the
shooting. Barrows had stopped his ma
chine to investigate what he thought
was motor trouble. Simultaneously,
the girl said, she remarked she heard
someone behind the machine. A shot
followed close on the beels of her re
mark and young Barrows fell dead be
side the automobile. The girl de
clares she did not see the assailant
other than she "thought a man witha
cap, or perhaps it was a shadow, run
away after the shot was heard."
Both Barrows and Miss Hilton are
of prominent Ventura families.
JAPANESE JINGO PRESS
RAPS SUPREME COURT
TOKIO, Nov. 16 The better news
papers of Japan remain surprisingly
calm in their comment on the deci
sion of the United - State supreme
court holding Japanese ineligible for
citizenship in the United States be
cause they are not of the "white race."
The only bitterness exhibited in the
comment is over the implication that
the decision may have been based on
the belief the yellow race is inferior.
Hopes are expressed in many lead
ing editorials that the decision is for
the best and. that radical understand
ing will eventually wipe out the in
ferred implication of inferiority.
The jingo press, however, is typical
ly bitter the Yorodozu berating Chief
Justice Taft as "up holding the Re
publican attitude toward Japan," and
declaring the decision can only serve
to injure diplomatic relations be
tween the two countries.

Heaw Damages
Asked In Suit
Of State Bank
PORTLAND, Nov. 17. Damages to
taling $130,000 were demanded of the
Federal Reserve bank of San Fran
cisco in a suit filed this morning in
the federal court here by the Brook
ings State bank. of Brookings, Curry
county, Oregon.
This suit is an outgrowth of the
nonpar exchange controversy be
tween the two banks, which resulted
last June in a victory for the Brook
ings bank when Judge C. E. Wolver-
ton granted an injunction against the
federal reserve bank restraining it
from sending out notices of dishonor
when the Brookings bank refused to
cash a check at par.
In its suit today, which was filed
by T. T. Bennett of Marshfield, the
Brookings bank alleged that the fed
eral reserve bank maliciously main
tained an agent at Brookings to col
lect checks over the counter at par,
in an effort to destroy its business.
It also alleges that the 42 notices, of
dishonor sent to Brookings bank de
positors, which were introduced in the
other trial, were another attempt to
wreck its business. The main point
of contention, however, hinges on the
alleged libelous act of a woman em
ploye in the Los Angeles branch of
the federal reserve bank, who wrote
"bank closed" on te face of the
check. During the injunction trial
last summer the reserve bank ad mitt
ed this act, but denied it was inten
tional, claiming it to be a clerical err

Gigantic Incomes
Rapped By Governor
PORTLAND, Nov. 17. Laws that
permit individuals to become multo
millionaires and pass, their fortunes
on intact, to increase in size by im
petus alone, will bring starvation to
the common people and later on de
struction, C- M. Pierce of Los Angeles
and a brother of Governor Elect
Walter M. Pierce told an audience in
Library hall last night.

of endowment funds for the mainten
