Chamber of Commerce Straw
Ballot Not Official, but
Opinion of Members.
VOTE STANDS 470 TO 111
685 of 800 Members Express Views
on Statewide Prohibition Many
Large Cities Take Similar
Action Officially.
More than four to one against was
the vote of business men of Portland
expressed In the straw ballot of the
members of the Portland Chamber of
Commerce, which was canvassed yes
terday morning by the board of trus
tees of that body.
A total of 685 votes was cast, out of
a. membership of 860. Four ballots
were blank. 111 were in favor of state
wide prohibition and 470 against state
wide prohibition. The vote was. held
at the request of members of the
Chamber themselves, who desired to
ascertain the attitude of the repre
sentative business men of the city as
a whole on the subject.
It plalntly was announced yester
day that this vote does not represent
any official position taken by the
Chamber as a body, but Is simply a
canvass of the lndlviauai opinions ui
the business men who make up the
organization.
Many Cities) D Likewise.
The Portland Chamber of Commerce
is only one of half a dozen or more
prominent chamDers in me milieu
States in which straw ballots recently
have been taken on the prohibition
question, although the results in other
cities have been announced as the of
ficial attitude and definite resolutions
of protest against prohibition have
been adopted.
The movement In Portland was
started Immediately following the ac
tion of the San Francisco Chamber of
Commerce. The referendum vote in
the San Francisco body was 1187 to 41
against prohibition and the chamber
issued and published resolutions broad
cast, strongly urging the defeat of the
proposed California prohibition amend
ment In the November elections.
California Millions at Stake.
Similar resolutions, worded even
more definitely and strongly, were
adopted and sent out by the Los An
geles Chamber of Commerce. In these
resolutions It was maintained that the
enactment of the California prohibi
tion amendment would amount to the
confiscation of an industry in which
several hundred millions of dollars are
Invested.
It points out that the state for years
has systematically and directly en
couraged the people to plant grapes
and make wine and to develop the
viticulture Industry to the fullest pos
sible extent, and that now there are
60,000 people and 340,000 acres of land
Involved In the Industry, which repre
sented an income in the state last year
of $26,175,000. Other commercial bodies
In California contemplate similar ac
tion, urging the defeat of the prohibi
tion amendment in that state.
Prior to the action of the Portland
Chamber of Commerce members, the
Milwaukee Chamber of Commerce
adopted resolutions urging the defeat
of the proposed Federal prohibition
bill. A similar resolution was adopted
officially by the Chamber of Commerce,
of St. Paul, Minn.
Many protests were sent the Port
land chamber when it was found that
the straw ballot was to be taken, urg
ing that the plan be abandoned. For
that reason It was decided better to
make the action represent the indi
vidual opinion of the members instead
of the official attitude of the organization.

tress, Mrs. Ella K. Dearborn-Herald,

important welfare movement for the
New York "newsies," accompanied the

PUPILS FINDING PLACES
MRS. CLI2VTOJT HAS PROVIDED EM
PLOYMENT FOR ABOUT 80.
Girls Want Places In Offices and Are
Slow to Accept Care of Chil
dren or Invalids,
Since the innovation of the employ
ment department for school attendants
during vacation a week ago by Mrs.
E. J. Clinton, of the School Superin
tendent's office, hundreds of boys and
girls have filed applications for posi
tions. About 60 have been placed in
positions.
"We have an unusually large demand
for girls to act as governesses for chil
dren or to care for old and infirm peo
ple," said Mrs. Clinton yesterday, "but
many of the girls who have filed for
positions do not like that kind of work.
The majority of them want positions
in offices. Several high school girls
have asked for employment as typists
and stenographers.
"Most of them will work for small
salaries vto "gain experience. Some have
completed two or three-year courses in
the commercial department. There Is
little demand for girls to do domestic
work, which Is surprising. I had ex
pected the majority of requests would
be for servants.
"Several boys have asked for work
In offices as errand boys or as clerks,
and to date I have had but two or
three calls for that kind of work from
employers."
Some of the positions asked for by
boys are outlined in the following:
Work on a farm, chores, learning auto
mobile repairing, machinist apprentice,
errand boys, clerks, apprentice phar
macist, teaming, driving automobile or
delivery truck, office boys.
