THE MORXIXG OREGONIAX, WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 17, 1913. 3 THAW WILL APPEAL TO HIGHEST COURT sive Proceedings Through Federal Tribunals. NOTEWORTHY DELAY WON Commercial Club I think that the law ought to be carried out as It stands, and the building- built exclu Isively for postoffice purposes. If the Government wants to house its other departments here in an office build ing, let it pass subsequent legislation I and make an appropriation for that purpose. What we want in Portland now Is a postoffice and we want it as quickly as possible. Now that we have obtained the appropriation and pur I FhiwH th a!tt. it is little short of Cmmrlxti'nn I oirl fnr Qiirroc. folly now to change the plans. I don't I uuiiuauuii uoiu iui wuwvwo- th, . Senator Lane wouid be justified In introducing any resolution that might delay the building of the post office. Adolph Wolfe, of Lipman, Wolfe & Co. My opinion is that if we could have a one or two-story building with out tny further delay, but with foun dations such that more stories could be added later, that would be the best solution. I am not in favor of any delay that might place our postoffice in jeopardy altogether or that would put it off very long. . It would be bet ter to delay a. time, however, and get building of the proper sort. Looking at it as a business proposition, I would not want to see a permanent two-story postoffice building put upon so valua ble a site. It would seem like false economy. We should nave a more imposing and larger building, such as business corporation would duim, suitable for years to come. William F. Woodward, of oodard. LITTLETON". N. H.. Sept.

Mills, president First National Bank Senator Lane's plan for a large office building seems to me a good one. I should think that unless It would en tail a very long wait we ought to try to have Congress authorize sucn structure.

While we no doubt need a new postoffice building as soon as possible, it is a great deal more es sential that we put up a building that will do for years to come than that we rush It through and take an inferior structure. I believe we should have a postoftcce that will be large enough for, twice our present population. If there is prospect of getting such a building by waiting a while, the delay is amply Justified. W. P. Olds, of Olds. Wortman & King The new postoffice ought to be a large office building. The Gov ernment is now engaging lots of rooms around the city for different depart ments and paying rent for them, and it would be to advantage to consolidate them in one building and save that rent money. Any reasonable delay would be amply compensated by get ting a building of this sort. Further, such a structure would do more to give j a (tooa impression of the city to visi tors than any building of the preont Federal style of architecture, no mat ter how ornate It might be.

The Authentic Modes of Parisian Modistes Are Presented in This $10 and $15 Millinery Until yesterday morning, when we presented all the newest modes for Fall, women did not have a comprehensive idea of what beautiful hats could be had for $ 1 0 and $ 1 5. This display of hats is representative of all the famous millinery dictators, as there are not one, but a number of artists who created these new styles. This is a season of profusion, as well as beauty. The styles are numerous because they have been inspired by the several periods whose costumes glorify French history. Close, tight-fitting hats, with smart little feathers, and charming little bon nets worn during the Directoire period have been made even more beautiful. The styles of the Empire and other periods are reflected in these beautiful hats both in those that came from Paris and those that are the handiwork of our skilled milliners. Hats for every occasion tailored and dress styles of soft, pliable ma terials in colors, but black predominating. Second Floor.

Policeman's Mount Takes Honors From Canine Which Tries to Call for Aid. NEW YORK. Sept. 16. While swim ming off the Parkway Bath at Brigh ton Beach late yesterday afternoon, John Condrica, a young Greek waiter employed at the Shelburne Hotel, Coney Island, was taken with a cramp. He yelled for help. No one was close to him. The near est was AJrs. Carl Heberland. owner of Don, known in vaudeville as "the. speaking dog." Mrs. Heberland' and Don started toward Condrica. Half a dozen press agents (whose stories Mrs. Heberland, being a lady, wouldn't deny) assert that Don tried to keep the waiter afloat. Some of them were positive that the dog spoke tne word "Help. But another animal gets all the hon ors, although Don really was some where In the offing. Someone ashore blew a police whistle. Two blocks away Mounted Patrolman Edward Cody was sitting astride his big bay horse Ruler. He galloped to the beach in front of the baths and the crowd pointed out the struggling Greek 100 yards offshore. Cody cannot swim, and he did not know whether Ruler could. But he took a chance and rushed the big bay into the surf. Ruler obeyed. That had long been his business going where Cody told him. So out he swam until he reached Condrica. whereupon Cody, leaning over, held the Greek's head out of water. Benjamin Hilton, Albert Skene and. Ralph Beahling, lifeguards, swam out. relieved Cody and Ruler of their bur den and took Condrica ashore. A crowd cheered the policeman and his horse when they returned to the beach, and a score of persons said they would write to Mayor Gaynor and Commis sioner Waldo and tell all' about the rescue. Condrica was rushed to the Coney Island hosDital and pumped out. and Mrs. Heberland handed forth pictures of herself and her dog. Altogether' It was a happy occasion. PRINTING PAY OPPOSED MRS.

Plimp ton, Secretary of Board, Not Taken Up by Board. SALEM, Or.. Sept. 16 (Special.) Despite a protest by State Printer Har ris, the State Printing Board Monday decided to pay Mrs. W. S. Duniway, widow of the late State Printer, for work done on old contracts at the same rate that Mr. Duniway was paid. Mr. Harris insisted that she should be paid under the present rate, which he said would save the state money. Treasurer Kay and Secretary of State Olcott said that after Mr. Duniway's death the agent of Mrs. Duniway had been asked to finish the work on hand and there fore a contract had been entered into. Mr. Harris did not show what the new rate was. As a result of the decision Mrs. Duniway will receive about S3000 for work which has been finished since her husband's death. Attention was called to letters writ ten to the Individual members of the board by a committee representing Multnomah Typographical Union No. BS protesting against the retention of W. M. Plimpton as secretary of the board on the ground that he is not a type setter of five years' consecutive experi ence. The board took no action because no letter was directed to it. The law provides that the secretary must be a "practical printer of five years' experi ence." Mr. Plimpton contends he is a "practical printer." A request was made by the State Printer that about $1200 of type, ma chines, etc., be purchased, but no action was taken.
