At the first meeting of the Home Training Circle, No. 12. held yesterday 'afternoon in the Thompson school. Multnomah Addition, Mrs. W. J. Hawkins gave a talk on "Systematic Child Study."

Harbormaster to Investigate Report That River I Contaminated by Schwarzchild & Sulzberger Co. That the slaughter-house of the Schwarzchild & Sulzberger Company, the Independent packers, operating In what is known as the old Zimmerman plant on the Macadam road, are permitting large quantities of blood to flow into the W il lamette River and contaminate the water. has been reported to Harbormaster Speier, who Is engaged in an Investiga tion of the report. The matter Is par ticularly pertinent at this time, because of the fact that the company will be obliged to apply for a pemrlt at the hands of the City Council to continue in business after November 1. The old permit terminates with this month, and there is prospect of a big fight in the Council over its renewal. Councilman Cottel. who has from the outset opposed the, operation of the "S & 8." people within the city limits, de Clares that the river is now being con taminated and made a nuisance, at least In the vicinity of the plant. He believes that no packing company should have the privilege of slaughtering in the city lim its, and will undoubtedly make a deter mined effort to head off any application for a new permit. "The company is now operating In ab solute violation of law, and should be stopped," said Dr. Cottcl. "It i3 not right to permit slaughtering In the city limits, as It is sure to create a nuisance in any community. When the matter was before the Council on the appearance in the city of the new company. Coun cilman Beldlng declared that the estab lishment 'Is conducted in a manner to cause no resentment or annoyance'; but that certainly Is not the case now." Mr. Beldlng strongly favors the pres ence of the plant In the location on the Macadam road, and did all he could to secure it for his ward at the time appli cation was made for a permit in the first instance.

Confronted by an adverse California decision covering the same points, it Is regarded as likely that the Oregon Rail road Commission will have hard sledding to penalize the Wells-Fargo Express Company for discriminative raites, a pun- shment that was promised Just before the last election. It Is regarded as im practicable to readjust intrastate rates without conflicting with Interstate tariffs, a matter over which the state commission has no control and which must be left to the Interstate Commerce Commission alone.
