Morrison Bridge Changes Proposed.
Changes on the deck of the Morri
son bridge are proposed by which it
will be made possible for automobiles
to cross from the side roadways to the
center in order to pass slow wagons.
A committee from the East Side Busi
ness Men's Club has taken the matter
up. The only change required would
be to lay wooden strips along the
outside of the guards, which now pro
tects the street railways. This would
enable the automobiles "to climb" over
the guards, and still prevent slowly
moving wagons and trucks from get
ting on the streetcar tracks. Chairman
Holman, of the County Commissioners,

REALTY BOARD MEETS
DAVID M. ROTH, MEMORY EXPERT,
IS ENTERTAINER
Paul A Cowglll Acts as Chairman of
Day and Dean Vincent Tells of
National Gathering.
By passing several severe memory
tests with virtually a perfect score,
David M. Roth, memory expert, yester
day entertained the Portland Realty
Board at its first weekly luncheon of
the Fall season.
His first demonstration was memor
izing the names and telephone numbers
of the 75 present as they responded
successively to the rollcall. Later he
recalled every name as originally cailea
and nearly all of the telephone num
bers as requests were made on a hit-and-miss
basis. He even remembered
George Schalk's Joking report that his
telephone had been temporarily dis
connected." Having numbered the front page
headings of newspapers for various
dates he distributed the papers among
the audience and promptly gave the
exact wording of each. As far back as
early July he repeated correctly head
lines of editions of The Oregonian,
hich were not among the marked
copies.
By the use of charts he named lists
of given words from memory by num
ber. The practical side of his mental
power was demonstrated when he iden
tified immediately a pair of glasses
that had been left beside a remote
plate at adjournment by Elias Brong,
of the Brong-Manary Company.
Mr. Roth was introduced by Paul A.
Cowglll, chairman of the day, as a na
tive of Germany, "born in Mllwaukie,
Wisconsin."
At the opening of .he meeting Dean
Vincent, president o.' the board, read
a report of his recent attendance at
the National Association of Real es
tate Exchanges in Pittsburg.
WATER OFFICE WANTED
EAST SIDE PROTESTS AGAINST OR
DER FOR REMOVAL.
Facts Presented to Show Demand for
Station Is Heavy and Any Change
Woald Be Unjust.
Property owners and residents in
East Portland, through the East Side
Business Men's CluTb, yesterday filed
a protest with Commissioner Daly
against the closing of the water office
on East Alder street.
This committee has gathered figures
to show thfe amount of business done
per month at this office. Collections
for August. 1914, were $6213.40; aver
age receipts per day, $202; number re
ceipts per month. 5107; average dally
collection, $273.15; average amount col
lected per month so far in 1914,
$6896.97: delinquents paid at this of
fice, 2000; average number of persons
calling per. month, 200; average for
the month, 5200.
The committee sets forth that, if the
office is closed, it will cost $68.96 to
collect water taxes, at stores and citi
zens will pay $390' in streetcar fares
to the City Hall.
"It will be not only a great injustice
to the merchants and business men,"
said the committee In its petition, "but
a great inconvenience to the people of
this central district, as evidenced by
the fact that more than, 5200 visit this
office per month, and the moving of
the office will be a detriment and in
convenience, and a great injury to the
East Side business interests, built up
and established through tho aid of this
practically and centrally located East
Side water offlae in past years."
Orders have been issued to close the
East Side and Albina water offices Oc
tober 1. The Albina Business Men's
Club withdrew its objections to'the re
moval of that office.
CAUSE OF REPAIRS SOUGHT
City to Determine Responsibility for
Damage to Bridge.
To determine the cause of damage
which has been done to the Grand-avenue
bridge, making Immediate repairs
necessary, the City Commission yester
day Instructed City Engineer Dater to
make a complete Investigation. It Is
thought the North Bank tracks under
the' bridge have been responsible for
part of the damage and that the com
pany should bear part of the cost. It
is thought also that the Portland Rail
way, Light & Power Company tracks
across the bridge have been partly re
sponsible. It is the plan of the Commission to
have a scientific investigation made to
determine the responsibility of these
two companies, so that their share of
the damage can be ascertained as well
as the share to be borne by the city.

DENTAL BAN WILL PASS
COUNCIL APPROVES ORDINANCE
AGAINST STREET PRACTICE.
Two Members Oppose Measure, Ma Win a
It Impossible to Carry It With
Emergency Clause Added.
Although it became apparent yes
terday that a majority of the members
of the City Commission favor the pas
sage of an ordinance promoted by the
State Health Department to prohibit
Painless Parker from practicing den
tistry on the streets, It was shown that
the measure has sufficient opposition
in the Council to make its' enforcement
impossible for at least six weeks.
Th Council stood three for passage
and two against. This means that the
measure cannot be passed . with an
emergency clause. It will come up in
two weeks for final passage and will
then go over for 30 days before going
into effect.
The measure as drafted originally
provided against the practice of medi
cine, dentistry and surgery In any pub
lic place. It was referred to City At
torney LaRoche and changed to pro
hibit these practices in any street,
highway or park.
Commissioner Daly moved to post
pone the measure indefinitely.
Commissioner Brewster was cham
pion of the ordinance. He said be con
sidered the practice of dentistry in the
street an unsafe and unsightly propo
sition. He favored immediate passage
of the measure. Commissioner Dieck
took the same view, while Mayor Albee
said he considered it a matter of pol
icy. "I do not take into consideration
the fact that it may be aimed at some
particular person. It is a matter of
policy."
PAVING PROTEST USELESS
Cij Accepts Work Despite Property
Owners Complaint.
Over the vigorous protest of prop
erty owners in Ladd's Addition the
City Commission yesterday, by vote of
four to one, accepted the pavement as
laid by the Warren Construction Com
pany on Bast Harrison street, from
East Twelfth street to the Central
Park in Ladd's Addition. Property own
ers, headed by T. S. Lawrence, con
tended that the pavement was not
properly laid and they wanted the city
to refuse to accept it until improve
ments were made.
The property owners announced that
they would take the question into the
courts. "We will have the State Su
preme Court decide whether we will
pay the price," declared. Mr. Lawrence.
"We contend that the pavement is not
up to standard and we are paying the
full price for it."
