Unless the Oregon Casualty Com pany,- which lurnisneo. me County Clerk Fields, In whlcli mere was recently discovered a provision that the bonding company would not be responsible for loss susiainea through the failure of any banking in stitution, stipulates that it will not use this as a defense In an action to be brought by the County Court to re v.r tha Fields shortage, it will get no more county business, and neither will the bonds lurnlshed by the com pany in probate matters be approved. according to Judge Cleeton, who is Probate as well as county juoge. These threats are contained in a let ter which Judce Cleeton mailed to the naatorHav Thu communlca- tion states tnat me uoumy ium . about to bring suit against both Mr. Fields and the bonaing company w - cover the money, some io,uuu, iuai through the closing of the American Bank & Trust Company. Thla provision was In fine print and was slipped over on me." said Judge Cleeton. "in my view a uonuin& company should guarantee that the man for whom surety is furnished per form his trust and it was up to the surety company in the present case to make arrangements with Mr. Fields concerning the safeguarding of money coming into his possession in his of ficial capacity. Anyway, It seems to me that the courts should hold that such a provision Is against public polr icy." . t OREGON PAINTINGS SHOWN John Trullinger Displays His Works at Commercial Clnb. John Trullinger, an Oregon man, born at Forest Grove, who returned a year ago from nine years in the studios of Europe, has Installed in the par lors of the Commercial Club an exhibit of his paintings, among which is the striking "Lady With the , Parasol," which was given a place in the salon in Paris In 1909. Several other por traits are Included in the exhibit, but the majority of the pictures are bits of Oregon scenery. Mr. Trullinger has painted a portrait of Judge C. H. Carey. All of the landscapes displayed at the Commercial Club are scenes painted in the vicinity of Portland. - "There is no need for a painter to leave Oregon." says Mr. Trullinger. "for In this state a landscape painter can find all that the heart can wish In the way of subjects." He Is planning a trip through Cen tral Oregon next Summer, where he will study the life of the cattle ranges and reproduce on his canvases some of the cattle scenes, which are In a few years likely to become a thing of the past. He also contemplates visits to some of the most attractive beaches of Oregon in the near future.

Miss Helen Cheever has been clerk 'en the postoffice at Sioux City. Iowa, for 34,4 Maximum Eight-Hour Day for Wom en Recommended Document to Be Sent to Cify Council. Formal presentation of Its fourth and last report on vice conditions in Portland was made by the Municipal Vice r-ommission yesterday, when chief features of the report were pub llshed n .The Oregonian last wees. The report is to the effect that n city should tolerate a restricted dis trict for vice, because it says it is im possible to confine the social evil In any prescribed district. Wherevei tried, says the report, this plan has proved a failure. The members of the commission re port that their Investigations justify the statement that, so long as there Is profit in vice, just so long will there be white slavery. They believe that it is the commercial aspect that is one of the worst features of the system. Grills, chauffeurs, roadhouses, loiter ing on the - streets, suggestive post cards, lack of proper instruction and extravagant dress are cited as some of the things that tend to demoralize the young. , , It is the belief of the Commission that the ultimate end of those who seek reform along moral lines should be the proper training and culture of the child. In this manner, they be lieve, can the social evil best be erad icated. As to the economic side, the Com mission reports that Its data show that it is impossible for a girl to live in Portland and properly support herself on less than $10 a week. Her health, comfort and subsequent happiness de pend upon her receiving this amount at least, in order not to be dragged into degradation. - It Is further reported by the Com mission that there should be a max imum eight-hour, day for women and that they should be provided with Some of the features which cause women to be drawn into the social evil are reported to be low wages, fatiguing work, desire for finery and vicious environment. The report will be sent to the City Council. Its recommendations are made to the Mayor and Council. They probably will be referred to the com mittee on health and police. The Com mission combined three previous re ports wlta the fourth. AMERICAN ROADS INDICTED Frank Robertson Points to .Excellent European Highways. "An automobile trip through Europe forces an Indictment against American roads," says Frank Robertson, bond buyer, who, with Mrs. Robertson, has Just returned from a two years' tour of the principal points of Interest in the United States and several foreign countries. . "Even Switzerland, cut up as It is with rugged mountains, has better roads than the average American state," says Mr. Robertson. In fact every country in Europe has the United States bested when it comes to roads. Germany and France are particularly well equipped, while England is not far behind. It Is possible to travel for days and to cover thousands of miles of territory without Inconvenience, he says. air. ana oirs. "f1' lnJ . . King's durbar at Delhi, in.
