RECORDS DENY TESTIMONY Three Alleged to Be Inefficient Arc i:pxrlcd With High .Ratings in Hooks Clerk Kela'tcs Tangle. Dismissal Is Sustained. I. Tlie City Council's so-called effieiency ystem, which bas been in effect for about a year, came to grief again yes terday at a meeting of the Municipal Civil Service Board, when it was used to prove that men who have been dis charged by Commissioner Dieek for in efficiency are thoroughly efficient, ac cording: to the records. The syBtem suffered a second blow at the same nieeting. when the civil service clerk who has to handle the efficiency rec ords appealed for relief from the tangle the system has caused by reason of its being administered differently in each or the live city departments. Three laborers, J. H. Armstron teorge iuoners ana c Holwtgger, ap peared before the board for hearing: of charges of Inefficiency upon which they were dismissed from the service by Commissioner liecK. Political Influence Alleged. Testimony was introduced to show that the three men were either unable r unwilling to work. It was declared that tlicy had been held in their places heretofore by political influence. Then ttie efficiency records were produced und it was shown that the men bad ex. vellcnt standing:. ''There's something' wrong some where," said John F. Logan, & member of the board. "The men who make up these efficiency ratings have testified before the board that these three men are inefficient and should be discharged, yet the records as kept by these same men show that the three laborers are efficient." It was declared by Miss M. A. Berry, who has charge of the efficiency report work tor the Civil Service Board, that there Is no uniformity in the system. Variety of Enforcement Blamed. "It would be utterly impossible to de termine the relative value of services rendered by the various city employes rrom the efficiency records as kept this past year," Miss Berry says in her re port. It is said that no two depart ments use the system similarly. Some have ignored it entirely, merely comply. ing to me extent or sending in blank reports, utners nave applied it in a few instances and1 the Department of i'ubllc Works, under Commissioner liieek, has administered It severely and to the letter. In passing upon the question of the efficiency of the three men whom Jlr. iileck discharged the board decided to ignore the system and pass judgment upon the basis of the testimony in the cases. ine dismissal of the three was sustained on motion of Commissioner C lark. Commissioner Logan concurred in the decision, with the explanation mat in nnding the charges of inef ficiency to be correct he "had found the city guilty of a worse offense than the men who were discharged. The city had an efficiency system which showed ine men to be efficient, while sworn testimony of the same officials who made out the reports in the efficiency system was to the effect that the men were inefficient. The failure of the efficiency system has been admitted by some of the Com missioners In the past, but as yet no steps nave been taken to abolish it The operation of the system involves considerable expense. FILM MAKER PLEASED I- J. SKLZMCK SAYS 3IOV1ES HERE USE LATEST BUSINESS IDEAS. Feature Production Demanded by Pub. lie and Days of Short Piny Are A umbered. He Says. "I came West with the expectation of showing you people something about the motion picture game," said Louis J. Solznick. president of the World turn Corporation, who was in the city a snort time yesterday afternon, "but find that there is nothing I can show you. Your advertising methods are superior to those in the East: your pic lure nouses are more attractive; your loonies look better and your whole ap pearance bespeaks good times. Mr. and Mrs. Selznlck are on their way to the Fort Lee. Cal.. studio of the orld Film Company, where they will remain a few days before starting oacK to .New lork. Both Mr. and Mrs. Selznlck declared that they are delighted with the West and are coming back in three months to make a longer stay. Mr. Selznick is the producer of fca Hire pictures. He Is not In favor of short reel films, saying that he believes that they are becoming obsolete. "The short reel picture Is becoming so unpopular that in a few years It can't even be given away," he said. "Right now in almost every large city I have visited, from New York to Port land, the large picture theaters are using the feature films and clamoring for more. In my estimation a six-reel show is ideal, five reels of a feature and a split reel of comedy and an edu cational subject. I think it is a mis take on the part of some exhibitors to attempt to raise the price. The lu cent house made motion pictures and put them on a firm basis. The exhib itor will have a hard time making a success of a show where he charges more money." ., Mr. Selznick spoke of the financial condition of the picture game, declar ing that times have never been better ttian they are right now and that he predicts that will be even better In the future. "The amount of money usually made on a five-reel feature." he said, "is about a minimum of JtiO.000 and a max imum of $1-0,000. Some large produc tions run short and some small ones run large, according. I think, to the title and amount of publicity it has had. The average is between $65,000 and Mrs. Selznick is an attractive little woman who is bound, body and soul, to the production of feature films. She sees every picture her husband pro duces and is a generous critic If she likes a picture she tells him so. she says, and if she doesn't she says so Just the same and he sets about to rem edy it. Her favorite film actress is Vivian Martin, who was seen in Port land in "The Wishing Ring" and tor whom she predicts a great future. sold par.

The Government alleges that the de fendant company did not live up to the specifications of the grant and that the land should, therefore, be reverted to the Government. The defense con tends that the road company was not obliged to sell the land to "actual set tlers," and that, in case the terms of the grant were violated, the Govern ment could collect damages but not demand forfeiture of the land. C. J. Smyth, special assistant to the United States Attorney-General, argued for the Government and John M. Gearin appeared for the Southern Oregon Company.

Designation of what theater bill post ers may do rather than what they may not do, is the purpose of an ordinance sent to the City Council yesterday by Commissioner Daly to take the place of a measure proposed recently by Com missioner Bigelow. Commissioner Daly objected particularly to a feature of Bigelow's measure requiring theaters to pay the regular bill posters' license if they maintained billboards. Mr. Daly's measure would prohibit the indiscriminate posting or passing out of posters, handbills and other ad vertising matter. Ho says to require theaters to pay a billposter's license was unfair because auch license Is In tended for concerns engaging In bill posting as a business.
