They are continually or ganizing new clubs, nrranglng public meetings and sending their literature to all corners of the state. State Committee la Ilnay.

The movemett for the extension of the South Mount Tabor carline to East Seventy-first street, on Twenty-ninth avenue, has reached a critical point. E. T. Peterson, chairman of the board of trustees of the South Mount Tabor Improvement Association, reported yesterday that between $11,000 and $12,000 had boen subscribed toward the construction of the extension, ana that the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company figures that it will cost $1S.000 to build the line, leaving about $7000 yet to raise. Mr. Peter non said that people on the Section Line road were Jiot assisting In any way and were, in fact, "knocking" the movement for the carline. They want il built nearer the Sertion Line road and have suggested Twenty-seventh avenue, but Mr. Peterson said that this route was not practical owing to tho greater cost for rights of way over Twenty-ninth avenue. A considerable number of property owners near where the end of the lino will be have not been heard from, said Mr. Peter ron. but are expected to help out. Mr. Peterson said that it would be unfor tunate to fail now In getting the car line In view of tho great need of the extension by tho neighborhood, and he urges that the whole dlBtrirt pull to gether In making up the remainder of the amount required.
