fllE 3IORXTXG OREGONIAN. MONDAY, DECEMBER 25. 1911. 11 L UP FOR VOTE FRIDAY Taxpayers to Meet High to Hear of Board. at Lincoln Report TOTAL ASKED IS $2,717,000 Iteommendattoa Regarding Pro posed Improvement la Vario-aa Sections to Be Entertained at Meeting IT7 to Be Cent. Taxpayer rt Portland will meet at Iks Lincoln H!b School. Friday night at I o'clock to hear tha report of tha School Board and vota upon the lr Int of taxes to supply tha demands of the school butl-ret for the coming- year. Tha bulldlni will be opened at 7:10 P. M. to permit the crowd to hare ample time to assemble before tha opening; of the rasetln;. R. H. Thomas, clerk, says that tha recant csnsus saows that there are ZS. Tlt lea-al school Totera In the city, men and women, and these will hare the rlaht of approrlne; or rejectlnc the rec ommendation of the Board for and ap propriation of I:. 707.000 for tha main tenance of the city's educational system durlna tha comlna- year. The budget as ortslnailjr compiled called for $2,717,000. but In a later revision It was cut down In several Items, to the present total. Tbls calls for a levy of six mills, which the Board duly recommends. Tha only business that the taxpay ers have full power to handle at the comlna; meeting- will be the considera tion of the levy. Recommendations will also be entertained from different sections of the city rea-ardlns proposed school Improvements that they desire to be made within tha next year. These recommendations have, however, no force except ems recommendations and do not bind the Boar.l. School Eai-.lla.cat Oiwws. la the annual report of the Board, the number of pupils reaistered In the city, including the night schools, for the year ending June to. 111. Is named at 10. OS. an Increase of 10 per cent ever that of the year preceding. This Involvee an additional expense to the city schools for the care of 1000 more children than have ever before been en rolled In the schools of the city, and this outlay Is provided for In the new budget. The lata school census shows a total cf 40.111 children of school age In the city, a growth of 1100 In the school population over that of the preceding year. The 110 census in turn showed growth of Itoo over that of 10: It and 10( each showed an Increase ef 1800. "The growth of 3S00 last year was phenomenal." said Mr. Thomas, "and more than doubles the figures of any preceding year. The great flood of Im migration to this section at that time Is probably the chief cause for the re markable growth. Growth In the school census, however, does not necessarily mean s corresponding growth In actual school attendance. Last year the at tendance In the schools Increased I0O0 when the census showed I&00 more children of school age In the district. This year, with a census Ircrease of only 1300. the actual attendance has grown by a total of : 100. Greatest Gala Obj East Sid. Increase In school attendance on the west slds of the river In the last year naa been about 3 per cent, while on the East Side It has ranged from 10 to 11 per cent, the greatest growth being la the southeastern districts. Districts along the river on each side have town a decrease. This Is said to be dus to the shifting of residence centers as commercial and Industrial concerns crowd more and more thickly In the sections Immediately upon the river. Extensive additions have been made to the school grounds of the city In the past year. Sites for new buildings have been purchased at Fulton Park. Greg ory Helghta, Jonesmore and Weston, and additional grounds have been ob tained adjoining school premises at Ar ista, Clinton Kelly. Fernwood. Holla day. Kerns. Al on ta villa.

Many lmsrwvemeata Made. Extensive Improvements In grounds, and school sanitation are noted in the report, and means for fire protection have bcn increased. Fire fighting ap paratus, consisting of standplpes and hose, has been placed In all of the new structures, and In about a score more of the old bulldlnga In the district. The outline of the. financial policy of tha Board for the past year notes that in the Summer months a large part of the money of the district la not needed for Immediate use. Arrangements have been made with some of the banks to allow Interest ot 3 per cent on dally balances, which will mean a return to tne district of approximately 114.000 annually. Provision la made In the budget for e, levy for a sinking fund to meet cer tain bonds which will fall due In 1111. and bonds Issued In 104 to refund bonds previously Issued and maturing at that date. "It has been the policy of the Board for many years," says the report, "to provide for the construction of gram mar schools and additions thereto and necessary grounds tliercfor. by annual tax levy, rather than by Issuing and selling bonds, and . construction of high schools has usually been provided for by tsu'iing and selling bonds of the district- This poiicy the Board has de cided to continue, and hence does not recommend the Issuing of any new bonds at t.'ils time.

Note Location 149 Sixth St, Opposite C. J. MATHIS PROTEST IS URGED ON RATE ADVANCE Portland May Lose Differential oi Freight via Panama Railway,. AID ASKED OF CONGRESS Commercial Interest) of Portland AVill Discuss Subject This Week and Lodge Protest With Oregon Delegation. Portland shipping- Interests havs be come aroused by the report that rates on the Panama Hallway may be ad vanced to the extent that the differ ential now enjoyed by Portland over other Pacific Coast points will be elim inated and shipments from Eastern points to the Coast encouraged over what Is known as the "lake and rail" route. The possibility of such an In crease in freight rates via Panama has been called to the attention of the commercial bodies of this city, which will this week lodge protests against C $20.00 Garments $15.50 $25.00 " $19.50 $30.00 ' , $23.50 $35.00 " $27.50 $40.00 " $31.50 $45.00 " $35.50 $50.00 " $39.50 AND TUXEDO SUITS, 10 the contomplated action with tbe mem bers of the Oregon delegation In Con gress. "About two weeks ago General Man ager Drake, of the Panama Railway, which Is owned and operated across the isthmus by the Government, made the announcement that an advance in rates to. North Pacific Coast points was being considered." said A. C. Callan, of the transportation committee of the Chamber of Commerce, yesterday. "I Immediately made inquiry I.. New York and . Philadelphia direct and learned that the proposed advance was being seriously considered, based on the In creased cost of stevedoring. Tes-Cest Advance Pi-opoaeA. "Under the present tariff the mini mum rate to San Francisco for 100 pounds in carload lots is 40 cents. It Is hoped to Increase this charge to- 50 cents. It Is also proposed to increase the minimum rate to Portland from GO cents to 62tt cents. These rates af fect steel and Iron products. Iron and nails, in carload lots, principally. "My Information Is that the proposed Increase In rates will apply only to San Krancisco and Portland and will not affect Puget Sbund points. This Is due undoubtedly to the fact that the Panama Railway does not compete for the business of Seattle and Tacoma, which Is handled largely by the American-Hawaiian Steamship Company. This would make the discrimination against Portland all the more pro nounced and juatly alarms our commer cial Interests. "It Is easy for a blind man to see that with the transfer that Is made in San FranciHco, .sending freight by schooners or connecting lines from Bal boa through that city. It will be long before the differential of 10 cents be tween San Francisco and Portland, which has always been maintained, will again be re-established. However, the differential on some commodities is only b cents a hundred between the two points now. "In addition to this contemplated ad vance In freight rates to Pacific Coast points, it has been definitely announced by Mr. Drake that the Philadelphia service will be discontinued. This virtually means that all Eastern man ufacturers will be required to base their prices on New York for water shipments. As an Illustration, points around Philadelphia can be reached on a minimum of from 8 to 11 cents on carload lots. Goods to Move Via fw York. "Discontinuing snlpments from that port means that shipments will have to move via 'New York, which will cost as a minimum 16 cents to reach sea board. With the Increased rate of 524 cents to Portland, plus the rate of 16 cents to New York, means a total of tS cents, to which must be added interest and Insurance, amounting to about 2y, cents, making the full rate to this city 71- cents via Panama. "During the greater part of the year North Pacific Coast terminal points en Joy what Is known as 'lake and rail' rates, which, on heavy commodities, means a saving of about 4V cents. The average rate on heavy commodities, all rail, is 80 cents, and when the lake and rail rates are In effect, which is usually from March until November, Iron and steel commodities can be shipped on a rate of 75 Vi centa "It Is plain to be seen that the dif ferential, being so small, the shipper naturally will turn to lake and rail movement, as It would afford a saving of frdm 30 to 45 daya In service. "An effort will be made to interest the local commercial organisations and also similar bodies In the various East ern cities that are affected In sending vigorous protests against the proposed Increase In rates to the members of Congress. It does not seem consistent that the Government, In view of the position It has taken relative to trusts, should bs a party to an arrangement whereby this advance In rates will be possible. "The principal aimcuity in toe Pan ama service has been In the action of the Government Itself. It has Issued learanee PER CENT OFF NOTICE "Mathis" service will prevail during this sale, same as during regular season. OUR CLOTHES MUST FIT Meier & Frank & CO, instructions that all Government freight must be given prefernce out of New York. Consequently, at the pres ent time there is a congestion at New York of between 12,000 and 16,000 tons. How soon this will be relieved depends upon the officials In charge ot this service. "The matter Is of such vital Im portance to Portland that all merchants and large shippers should Immediately telegraph the members of the Oregon delegation at Washington protesting against the proposed advance of rates and at the same time ascertain def initely the necessity for that action. Even if It should be found that the cost of transporting goods across the Isthmus has Increased materially, ship pers should at least have the oppor tunity of protecting themselves by an advance notice of at least 90 days be fore the proposed Increase In rates be comes effective, that they may be en abled to place In transit merchandise for which they have already contracted and the movement o'f which was di rected via Panama."
