Muldaur, Manager of Field Work, Describes Story and Movie Help Department Extends. When you read a story by a popular author, did you ever think that the plot might have been suggested by the I Society for Electrical Development? Ld you ever dream that even the movie plots sometimes were the product of tne same fertile organization? Yet they are, according to the as sertion of George B Muldaur, manager of the field co-operation of that so ciety, who arrived in Portland yester day to study conditions here with the object of initiating local firms into the organization. , "We have four departments In our society," said Mr. Muldaur. "One de partment organizes the various firms' nto locals. Another collects informa tion, and suggests new uses for elec trical apparatus, and still another files the information away and furnishes It to the member firms. "But the editorial department Is the one that places the facts before the people. It suggests plots for stories about electricity to popular authors; it maxes moving picture films in which new electrical appliances are used, and it sends out bits of news to the daily papers. "A short time ago one of the leadintr magazines had a story suggested by tnis aepartmenL It was a love storv. dealing with the efforts of a young man who had to Increase the output of an electrical plant by a certain per centage to win the girl he loved. "We didn't pay the author for writing it. He was glad to get the suggestion. Then our moving pictures are not advertisements. They may be come dies, tragedies, or anything else. But some new electrical appliance is al ways brought to the front. It Is al ways introduced incidentally. We have no means of checking on fhls ad. vertislng, but it must induce a lot of buying. Mr. Muldaur will speak before the Oregon Society of Electrical Engineers at the Benson Hotel at noon tomorrow. Tomorrow night he has arranged to speak to a number of electrical con tractors.' He says that Portland prob ably will be the central office of the pacmc states branch of the society. NOTABLE'S SON TO VISIT Rev. S. A.. Eliot, D. D., to Address Unitarian Club Tomorrow. Rev.

Nearly 1,000,000 Will Be Sent at Once to San Francisco Branch by Portland Subscribers. Beginning this morning the new Fed eral currency system will be in effect, but so far as the ordinary individual is concerned the method of conducting commercial business will be unchanged. The banks alone will feel the change and there it will not be vital. But the effect upon the banks will be important in this particular. It will force them to accept for discount only such notes as bear definite ma turity dates. It will be possible, of course, to handle notes without this feature, but such notes will not be adapted to the Federal reserve banks requirements for rediscount. A. L. Mills, president of the Portland Clearlng-House Association, 'has called a meeting of the association for to morrow for the purpose of adopting resolutions that will legalize the ex clusive use of maturity notes through the clearing-house. Meanwhile Portland member banks are preparing to meet the first call for funds from the regional reserve bank at San Francisco. Nearly $1. 300,000 will be sent from Portland. The apportionment will be as follows: First National. $375,000; United States Na tional. $270,000: Lumbermen's National, $100,000 to $150,000; Merchants Na tional, $60,000 to $70,000; Northwestern National. $80,000. Sweet Teeth of America Nearly Lose Chocolate. Switzerland Had Decided to Con serve S,000,000 Annual Supply Wbm Industries Pleaded. MCLK chocolate nlbblers have nibbled unconsciously through the opening stages of the European war little real izing that for weeks the foreign supply, valued at more than 48,000.000 francs at wholesale, was within a hair's breadth of being cut off. Switzerland, the Alpine republic, ex ports that much every year, and the greater portion comes to the United States. In American money the cargo is valued at more than $9,000,000 whole sale. When Switzerland mobilized the gov ernment immediately drew up meas ures to stop this outflow of chocolate. reports the Berner Bund, the official paper of Bern. Chocolate has long been recognized as one of the most concentrated of food stuffs and one of the most nourishing. The army officials of Switzerland recog nized this and decided to make sure that the supply of such easily-carried nourishment would not be short. But the big manufacturers of the country declared that they had enough supplies on band to last the country in definitely, and that supplying the Amer ican craving for chocolate would be one way of helping the country keep its Industries going. Through Switzerland and Bund also comes the request to the world that all gifts intended for the soldiers on the field be chocolate, cigars or periodical literature. The soldier's needs on the field are few, and any of those three articles will cover his direst needs. This request followed receipt of gifts consigned to the battling armies, and which often included articles which the soldier had to abandon.

A most agreeable man. by no means equipped by nature for a spy, is the description of Carl Hans Lody. the German who met death as a spy in the Tower of London, given by Edwin Caswell, a Portland business man, who met the unlucky young man two years ago on a European tour. Mr. Lody was tourist agent for the Hamburg-American line and was on a trip from Ham burg to Spltzenbergen to look after the comfort of the passengers and to arrange for numerous side trips. Mr. Caswell was making the trip with his wife, son and daughter and found the presence of Mr. Lody very pleasent. both because of his affability and his aid. "We became well acquainted with Mr. Lody on that trip." Mr. Caswell said yesterday. "I have no doubt that, called to his colors, he was ordered by his government to act as spy. He was by no means that sort of man by na ture." FEAST OF EPIPHANY FIXED Dean Sumner Asks to Be Consecrated as Bishop on January 6. In a telegram received In Portland Saturday Dean Walter T.
