THE MORNING OREGONIAX, SATURDAY, AUGUST 7, 1909. 16 BILLBOARDS ARE CALLED NUISANCE Citizens Indorse Mayor's Stand That Posters " Should Be. Regulated. PAY LITTLE FOR FRANCHISE City Grts Only $300 Annual License on Business Amounting to Tens of Thousands of Dollars. What the People Say. Mayor Simon struck a not In public sentiment that ran true when he made the statement Thursday, in the course of a trip of Inspection about the city, that the unsightly billboards around Portland should be more closely regu lated and restricted. Portlanders in jreneral and those in terested in work along the lines of per manent improvement and betterment of the city in particular expressed themselves yesterday as highly pleased at the Mayor's attitude In recognizing: an evil, previous attempts at regulat ing which have been blocked princi pally because of lack of official Inter est or co-operation. Following the Mayor's statement, a number of well known and representative citizens were asked by The Oregonian to give their fair a"nd unprejudiced views of the mat- j ter. expressions or approvai at Mr. i mon's stand were unanimous, and those Interviewed, In almost every Instance, took pains to add that they would sup port heartily any move he might make toward regulating the billboards. Inquiry at the City Auditor's office yesterday disclosed the fact that Fos ter & Kleiser, who control the bllJ rostlng business in Portland, pay a yearly license of only $400 for a priv Jlege which practically amounts to an exclusive franchise. A subsidiary con cern of this company, the Oregon Dis trlbuting and Advertising Company, pays a further license of $100, bring ing the total sum this company hand ling tens of thousands of dollars of bill posting annually pays to the city to $500. Considering, among other things, the fact that any concern In competi tion with Foster & Kleiser could hope only for a small share of local busi ness, inasmuch as the former company belongs to a National organization which controls the business in every large city, the license is held to be not enough. Major Asks Public Expressions. Mayor Simon yesterday said that he wished to know what public sentiment Is In regard to regulating the billboards be fore taking any definite step. "I would be very glad to have the mat ter agitated." said the Mayor. "I will be pleased to hear and receive any sugges tiona citizens may have to make. I would like to hear especially from people with artistic and esthetic ideas for the beauti fying of the city as to how they feel about regulating unsightly billboards. "I have not thought out yet a plan for such a regulation, but these suggestions from the people themselves would be of assistance to me. It Is my desire to play fair with everybody. I don't wish to run any concern out of business, or to treat it in any way unfairly, but evidently some regulation Is needed. In my judgment, also, a license of $400 a year Is decidedly too low. That Is another phase or the problem that should come in for regula tion. Especially significant as Indicating how truly Mr. Simon Is succeeding in finding the real wishes of the people In matters of public interest and of the interest that has been aroused by his proposal to regulate the billboards is the fact that even his political oppo nents at the recent election are lining up on his side and expressing their ap proval of his attitude. Though he worked against Mr. Simon to the best of his ability at the election. Thomas McCusker. ex-president of the Civic Improvement League, said: "I wish to compliment the Mayor on the position he has taken. I think all good citizens should back him up. Per sonally I am opposed to any billboards at all. but as they have been permit ted to exist. I think they should be reg ulated so as not to exceed six feet in height, and all 'two-story hoards should be prohibited. And near street car or railway crossings they should not be so high that people In vehicles cannot look over them to see if trains are coming. "There should be a restricted district for billboards. I would rather see them in the business portion of the city than the residence port ion. because we hare here the most beautiful city In the Vnlted States some say In the world and we cannot tolerate what tends to detrov Its natural beauty. Good rents are paid for the billboards in some places, but if the Assessor" should place these rents In the valuation of the property, it would soon stop the billboards. I believe that the be.st way to regulate the problem would be to keep them to not over 6 feet high, and to tax them according to the square feet of space In the boards. If we must stand for this nuisance, the city should be paid for It." Gruber Condemns Nuisance. "I will condemn the billboards In the strongest of language." said S. H. Gru ber. chairman of the municipal committee of the Chamber of Commerce. "They certainly should not be allowed In the business or residence section, but should have to go way out In the subxirbs or country If they must be tolerated. I aree with the Mayor that the nuisance should be regulated. I should like to see thorn abolished altogether, myself. This, I think could be done by levying an oc cupation tax. I see no necessity for the billboards whatever. They are an eye sore ajid destroy the beauty of the city. "The billboard men should at least be compelled to clean up waste paper after they have pasted up new bills. For in stance, on Twenty-first street, between Irving and Johnson, there is a billboard at least loft feet long and 10 feet hfgh. The sidewaJk in front of it Is usually Ut tered up with a mess of papers torn down and left there by the posters. It Is out rageous the way the billboards are tol erated at present. Some of the signs are absolutely disgusting: not immoral, per haps, but clse to it." Women Would Eliminate Them. "I should say I do think the billboards should be regulated."' said Mrs. G. M. Glines. president of the Portland Wo man's club. All the women. I think, are In favor of eliminating them. They are a bar on the landscape and they mar the beAutr of our city. For years I have thought they ought to be forbidden al together or at least in the main sec tion." "The billboards are an eyesore, a nuisance, and a disgrace to the city." said W J. Burns, of the grain stand ard committee of the Chamber of Com merce. "They should not be tolerated. Public sentiment is the best way to : regulate the nuisance. People should make up their minds not to patronize those who advertise on the billboards. They could be boycotted out of exist-' ence." "I think decidedly that the billboards should be regulated and restricted," said F. E. Beach, of the civic improve ment committee of the Chamber of Commerce. '"There should be a reduc tion in their size and glaringness that's the only word I can think of just now to express it. If I had my own -n-n v nhmtt it T should like to 8G i them nrnhihitpH nltnsrether. Bv means of high license or ordinance they should at loast be absolutely prohibited In the residence section. Down town and in the extreme suburbs they are not so objectionable, though they give such an unpleasant effect that I should like to have them abolished entirely." "Question of Beauty Richardson. "The ambition of Portland, the Rose City, is to be looked upon as the most beautiful city in the country." sid Sec retary Tom Richardson, of the Commer cial Club. "By travelers it is given that high position, and many recognize it as the most beautiful city in America. Port land's beauty is built upon the same prin ciple as underlies the beauty of the rose, the perfection of the flower world, and It Is on such lines that her building and development ehould be carried on. Now the question is whether such things as unsightly billboards help or hinder such an aim? Whether they add to the nat ural beauty of the city, or detract from it? Does the traveler think some other city more beautiful for Its billboards? The whole problem might be looked at and met from an artistic point of view." "With Mrs. M. E. ShafTord, I instituted the first campaign against the billboards back in 11." eaid George M. Hyland, or ganizer and former president of the civic improvement league. "We succeeded then In driving the billboards back from the center of town, and we tried to put them out of business altogether by, means of a he a vy occ upation tax. However we ran out of money and ran into legal obstacles and had to drop the work. I believe that an occupation tax could be gotten through now, regulating and tax ing billboards by the square foot, their amount of surface, or the revenue derived from them. It could be put so high, that the boards couldn't exist. Such an occupation tax has been held legal. "These billboards are an eyesore and their moral tendencies are not of the best. I thought so when I first took up the work against them, and I haven't noticed any great Improvement." "My views about billboards differ from those of most people," said Frank B. Gibson, ex-president of the Civic Improvement League. "I believe they are a necessity, in this advertising age, and that they serve to hide many un sightly spots and rubbish heaps that otherwise would be exposed to public view, much to the detriment of the city. However, I think they should be regulated. There should be certain re strictions as to their height, and they should be under police surveillance. Thus any signs that were objectionable or could easily be made so, could be prohibited." BIG REGATTA IS HELD OARSMEN FROM 15 CITIES IN RACES AT DETROIT.

MAY UNION Exporters Receive No Answer From Grainhandlers. CONTRACTS NOT SIGNED Open Shop May Result and Wage Set at 30 Cents an Hour Unless Union Makes Move Answer of Dock Men Now Overdue. Members of Grain Handler Union, Local No. 4. failed to sign up for the coming season with exporters yesterday on a basis of 35 cents an hour, as was paid during: last year. The contract be tween the exporters and the union ex pired in April, and since that time there has been no wheat to handle and the matter was allowed to lapse. Two weeks ago the exporters took the matter up with the union and it was agreed that an answer would be filed by the union yes terday. It was not. Unless the matter Is settled within a few. days, it Is probable the exporters will declare for open shop and the wage scale set at 30 cents an hour. Members of the local union are now receiving 35 cents an hour under the old contract and exporters are willing to sign for the sea son of 1909-10 at the same rate. Union leaders are evidently, sparring for time STEAMER INTELLIGENCE. Due to Arrive. Nam. From. Date.

Practically all vessels headed for this port have a Puget Sound option and can be sent there in case of necessity. In all Puget Sound ports the open shop prevails and the wage scale is 30 cents. The union is not recognized. Portland shippers recognize a union and the wage scale Is five cents higher than on the Sound. The trouble with the grain hand lers Is ysn annual affair, but unless an agreement is reached soon, the exporters will make a decided stand. In case of trouble with the grain hand lers, the contract between the stevedores and longshoremen will become void and it will be up to the stevedoring firms to declare open shop with the exporters. Longshoremen in Portland are now re ceiving 55 cents an hour straight time and 82H cents an hour overtime. Open shop would reduce the scale to 50 cents straight time and 75 cents overtime. WIXTER SCHEDULE ANXOUXCED Steamship Kansas City Will Make First Trip October 1. With the Balling of the steamship Kan sas City from Portland, Friday afternoon.

Kolderup said today that he Is in full sympathy with the enterprise of Captain J. Mikkolborjs, now at Cordova, Alaska, to colonize Alaska with Norwegians. Consul Kol derup said: . "The idea Is to prepare the way for regular communication and , transpor tation for both passengers and freight from Norway to Alaska. At present there is a railroad built by the Rus sian Government across the country to Vladivostock, but there are no regular steamships running across Bering sea. "The climate of Alaska will permit of farming in most of the valleys, and the mineral resources of the terri tory are very great. Most of the great fortunes made in the gold regions of the North have been taken out by Scandinavians, who endure the clim ate . well. The project of colonizing Alaska with Scandinavians has been under consideration for years." Albany Arranges Match. . ALBANY, Or., Aug. 6. (Special.)

To attain the highest possible degree of proficiency In all departments of medical science would require half a dozen lifetimes of study and as many more of practical experience. The regular prac titioner is proficient in a large number of the commonest and moat easily conquered diseases. The specialist must first become proficient for general practice, and most then go on to pro ficiency in a few of those conditions and dis eases more difficult ta understand and more difficult to cure. Pay Me When I WEAKNESS Functional weakness In men Is In reality a comparatively simple ailment, and Is but a symptom of local disorder, a vtate of chronic Inflammation of the prostate Kland.
