COMMISSION IS FAVORED Al CI.l'B IXDOKSES THIS VLS OF CITY" tiOVKKNMKXT. No-Seat-Xe-Rlile" Ordinance Pro posed Is Iseclared to ne Imprac tical by F. 1. Foil". The commission form of government was discussed by K. H. Whitfield be fore the Portland Ad. Club at Richards Cafe, yesterday noon. Mr. Whitfield. In his address, said that the Introduc tion of this form of municipal law waa not due to the existence of graft, but to a desire to conduct the affaire of a city upon a business basis. He traced the history of the movement from its Inception In 1S97 at Galveston, where the tidal wave created an unusual con dition, up to the present time, when ISO cities have put the system into ef fective operation. He contended that the principles In volved were productive of Individual responsibility In the administration of j city affairs, and that It further pro duced a dollar a worm oi worn every dollar expended. The speaker concluded with a motion that the Ad. Club appoint a committee to take an active part In the agitation now going on for the Introduction of this system In Portland. The motion carried. George N. Iavls spoke with refer ence to the need of a club building for the Portland Ad. Men. The club de cided that It had no use for a club at the present time That the "no-seat-ncrlde" ordinance to be votxd on at tf e coming city elec tion waa lmprsctlc-1. Impossible of ful fillment and detrimental to the proper distribution of the streetcar passengers was asserted by F. 1. Fuller, vlce-prest-dent of the Portland Hallway. Light at Power Company. Mr. Fuller pointed out that In hauling people up Wash ington street, for Instance, that a full load waa secured In the distance from Second to Park streeta. After Park str-et waa left behind, the work of distribution was begun. Passengers dropped off at Thirteenth street with transfers, and on Sixteenth and along on Washington, until Twenty-third was reached. The distance between Thlr teet.th and Twenty-third. If the ordi nance was enforced, would show a god many vacant seats, and by the time the haul waa completed to the end of Willamette Heights, for the major portion or the oiatanre. probably only one passenger would be carried. Meanwhile passengers in the down town districts would still be waltillg for cars with vacant sests. though an empty car was carried more than half the distance on the upper cud of the run. Mr. Fuller also called attention to tho Impossibility of taking care of the traffic from the Kast Side across tha bridges under such an ordinance.

Is the purpose of the Portland Commercial Club. To this end. a special committee will meet at luncheon at the club next Monday noon at which plans will be made for attending the coming con vention of the Southwest Washington Tuivelopment Association at Chenalls, June 1. 2 and I. One session of the convention wfll be devoted to a discussion of the topic, Trade Relations of Southwest Wash ington With Seattle. Tacoma and Portland.- This wtll be the subject taken up at Monday's luncheon. A chairman will be named to head Portland's dele gation to the Chenalls meeting. Portland Gains Friends. To date, Portland has had far the best of it In Southwest Washington," said George F. Johnson, chairman of the Commercial Club promotion com mittee. "The policy of the Commer cial Club has been to make friends in that territory and it has succeeded, with the result that the whole district Is peopled with Portland boosters. On the other hand a feeling or Hostility and antagonism has developed against the Puget Sound cities. Tacoma has. of late, gotten a better grasp of the situation than Seattle, which has taken the stand of shutting off Southwest Washington from the territory in which It assumes the responsibility of trade metropolis, telling It to go It alone. that Seattle la tired of being abused for neglecting territory at Portland's front door. This Is unfortunate for that terri tory, and It will be a genuine misfor tune for Portland If Southwest Wash ington loses Seattle's good will. We not only want to boost for South western Washington but to have Seat tle and Tacoma boost for It as well. We want to take a broad stand and do what we can to bring about ami cable relations. "To that end. we want a substantial delegation to go from Portland to the Chenalls convention. Our Commer cial Club work for Southwest Washing ton has been extensive. We have ad vertised that section with literature and In news matter, have furnished its organizations Tilth names of In quiries and have co-operated In every way to give It publicity. Big xclegthm Wanted. -This work Is appreciated. It Is responsible for the good feeling; toward our business men that obtains in that section today. We want our citizens to get a belter understanding of the situation for the better we know that country and its people, the better we can serve It. The way to get this knowledge Is by personal contact. For this reason, we want .a big delega tion, made up of our most representa tive men, to attend the Chehalis con vention. This convention, which meets every three months, is unique. The leading men of Southwest Washington are delegates. Prominent bankers of the territory are there, vitally Interested In working out the problems presented. The same Is true of the big sawmill men, and landowners. Nowhere do you meet so many bankers outside of a bankers' convention and nowhere else do yon see so many lumbermen, except at special gatherings of those Interests. Tb,ese men are taking an interest In the settlement of their logged-off lands aird In the other mat ters that will make for the develop ment of this great section. We want to aid In every way to build up the Northwest and particularly this, our Immediate terrltory.- Am.mg those who will attend the special committee luncheon next Mon day are the following: T. D.
