Four-Act Sociological Problem Has
Many Heart Lessons.
"The Traffic" was produced for the
first time in Portland Wednesday night
at the Lyric. It is a sociological play in
four acts by Rachel Marshall and Oli

a successful run in Chicago and the
Eastern states. It deals with white sla-

SCENE FROM "THE TRAFFIC."
hard In an effort to convince members
that the ordinance is unfair, discrimi
natory and will cause only trouble and
Increased meat prices. The Council took
the ordinance under advisement until
it Is brouKht before the body for final
passage or rejection.
The small concerns, represented by
Dan Malarkey and John F. Logan, at
torneys, based their objections on the
provisions ot the ordinance that gives
Inspectors the right to condemn meat
without giving the dealer a right of
appeal, and provisions which exempt
from inspection the plants which are
under Federal inspection. They object
ed also to the omission in the measure
of adequate provision for the inspec
tion of farm-killed products or provis
ions to require proper handling of car
casses shipped into the city by freight
or express.
Inspection of All Meat Required.
The ordinance, as it stands, requires
that all meat sold in the city shall be
inspected. Slaughtering-houses within
a mile of the city must be kept In ab
solutely sanitary condition and ante
mortem and post-mortem examinations
shall be ninde of all cattle, sheep or
bogs sent in for slaughter. In case
Inspectors are not available the man
who slaughters is permitted to stamp
the meat with his own trade mark,
which will serve as a guarantee that
the meat is good. If it is found unfit
at any later time It may be condemned.
"We object." said Dan J. Malarkey,"
"to the provision which gives the in
spector the right to condemn our
property without due process ot law.
This ordinance makes the inspector the
judge. and jury in .all cases. He has
the right to say what of our property
we shall sell and what we shall not.
He may or may not be actuated by
proper motives and may or may not be
capable of judging properly. Yet we
have to take his word. It Is delegat
ing to the inspector a mighty author
ity." Mr. Malarkey declared that those
who drafted the ordinance have con
sidered it satisfactory to allow the
slaughter-house people to stamp their
meat in case regular inspectors are
not available. "Why not allow all meat
to be Inspected In this way?" he sug
gested. "Let the inspectors come to
our places occasionally when they are
not expected and check up on condi
tions. If it is safe to let any meat go
out with the trademark of the butcher
on it. why does not the same apply to
all meat?"
Outside Shipments t Regulated.
C. G. Adams., a slaughter-house pro
prietor, declared the ordinance is un
fair because it does not regulate prop
erly the meat shipped into the city.
"You require us to live up to absolute
conditions." he said, "yet you allow
outsiders to ship here regardless of
conditions at the slaughtering places.
The carcasses are- brought here in
dusty express cars, are allowed to
stand in the sun available to flies and
are dragged about platforms and commission-houses
through dust and dirt.
You brand this as good meat.
"This ordinance gives the outsider
an advantage over us which will put
'many small concerns out of business.
It will coat us more to produce meat
than it does the outstder and for that
reason we cannot compete."
The Council spent more than two
and a half hours listening to the ar
guments pro and con and then ad
journed until this morning. The meat
ordinance probably will not come up
today, but is expected to be ready for
final vote within a week or 10 days.
STUDENTS GIVE OLD PLAY
'Tbe Babes In the AVood" Preswnted
at. Washington High Tonight.
"The Babes in the Woods" will be
presented tonight and tomorrow night
at Washington High Scliool by the
glee club of the school. The tuneful
comedy will be directed by W. H. Boy
er. who was in charge of the produc
tion when it was given In Portland
aooui 'u years ago by a number or
young men. of the Multnomah Club. I
very and presents the pitfalls and the
temptations which are placed before
the poor women wage slaves, striving
tor a lew pennies daily to keep soul
ana ooay together.
The play is pathetic because it de
picts conditions as they have existed
for generations and exist today in the
overcrowded districts -of the world's
cities, where millions who live in pov
erty from the cradle to the grave eke
out a miserable1 existence.
Ruth Vernon Is the leading woman.
She is young, talented and preposses
sing. Ktheiyndal McCullen as Mrs.
Molly McGuire, who furnishes the au
dience with comedy; Grant Raymond
isye, as Vic Conners, and Edward Gor
don, as Tony, are cadets; Frank Kelly,
as Dr. Bemls; James Bowles, as Xinno
bacco, and Edesse Fowler as Lulu,
gave a good account of themselves.
The play is booked for an indefinite
engagement at the Lyric Theater.
There will be a matinee Saturday and
Sunday.
