Aetual construction of Portland's pro.
posed public auditorium can be started
in December. Full working plans will
be completed and in the hands of Port
land officials ready for advertising for
bids next month. The building- can be
completed by the early part of next
Summer.
Such was the information brought to
Portland yesterday by J. A. Fouilhoux.
of the firm of Whitehouse & Fouilhoux,
arcnitects representing J. H. Freed
lander, of Sew York, official architect
for the auditorium. Mr. Fouilhoux re
turned from New York, where he went
to tate the rouh preliminary plans
from which Mr. Freedlander is making
me working plans. Following
lengthy conference with Mr. Freed
lander, Mr. Fouilhoux spent several
weeks visiting in cities having audi
toriums. He gained much valuable in
formation for use in the Portland build-

Plans 1 o Be Harried.
"Before I left New York." said Mr.
Fouilhoux yesterday, "Mr. Freedlander
said he would rush the plans just as
rapidly as possible. He hopes to have
tnem ready to send on in completed
form next month. Incomplete drawings
will bo sent here probably within a few
days for us to look over and show to
Commissioner Baker. These will be
returned for completion.
"I believe work on the building can
be started before January 1 if the City
Commission is able to let the contract.
The making of soundings and the work
of excavating can be started and com
pleted during the Winter, as can also
probably the basement construction.
This will open the way for the com
mencement of the superstructure early
in the Spring. This can bo pushed
along so that the buildinf can be com
pleted next Summer.
Cost Not to Exceed Appropriation.
"After checking over the plans as
adopted by the City Council and taken
by me to New York, Mr. Freedlander
reported that the building could be
erected with the money available for
that purpose. Arrangements have
been made for the use of Oregon mate
rials as much as possible. Samples of
various kinds of materials have been
sent for and tests are being made.
"In my visits to various cities I
found that the building proposed for
Portland embraces the principal fea
tures of most of the successful build
ings of the kind. Our building will be
thoroughly practical. The idea of re
movable partitions and removable floor
ing has been carried out in some other
cities and is successful. During the
six weeks I have been away I have vis
ited Salt Lake City, Denver, Wichita,
Kansas City. St. Louis, Chicago, Mil
waukee, Saginaw. Rochester, New York,
Houston. New Orleans, Los Angeles,
San Francisco and Oakland.
"In making the plans for the build
ing Mr. Freedlander is giving much
attention to details. While I was there
he consulted with Professor Sabine, of
Harvard University, probably the fore
most authority on acoustics in. the
United States. He gave some valuable
advice. A number of other experts
have been asked also for advice."

LOVE PUZZLE UNSOLVED
S17IT ADVISED BEFORE: WEDDING
ADOPTED DAUGHTER.
Kotr Kattaer Should Institute Man
damuM to Test Lair, Says Dis
trict Attorney Evans.
District Attorney Evans has advised
Deputy County Cleric Cochran that a
mandamus suit would be the best way
to determine whether a man may
under the laws of Oregon marry his
adopted daughter.
"The Oregon law :n marriage under
takes to say who may and may not
marry, but does not specifically pro
hibit marriag-e between a man and his
adopted daughter," said Mr. Evans. "On
the other hand there is section 70S9,
of Lord's Oregon Laws, which defines
the status of an adopted child, to be
considered. A mandamus suit appeals
to me as the best method of testing
ou the question."
xne section or ioro: s Oregon iaws
to which Mr. Evans referred reads as
follows:
"A child so adopted shall be deemed,
for the purpose of inheritance of said
child, and all other legal consequences
and incidents of the natural relation
of parents and children, the child of
the parents by adoption, the same as
ir he had been born to them in law
ful wedlock."
The question arose when an attorney
asked Mr. Cochran if a marriage li
cense could be issued to clients of his
who stood in the relation of father and
adopted daughter to each other.

Patience, people. You may think
that the plan Mr. Daw and myself
offer you and 9,999 other brilliant
Americans is the only one I have
handy to help make you weathly
quickly, and on little investment,
1 plan to devote my time and that
of our high-priced staff of finan
cial experts to your service.
If you were not fortunate enough
to be one of the 10,000 members
of the WaHingford "Movie" Ring,
do not despair. I will have an
other plan just as good for you.
But anyway, tomorrow, I will tell you how, for the price of a 10c
loaf of bread, you might make a fortune. How our co-operative mov
ing picture going public would extend like a net over the country.
Here's the proposition. You could invest a dime. So could 9,999 others
With the $1,000 thus received we could open a moving picture the
atre. Each of the stockholders would bring two friends. This
would give us 30,000 customers to -tart. Those customers are given
coupons to urge them to bring two more friends. So that we could
open a chain of theatres throughout the country.
Being utterly optimistic wouldn't do for us. We are not radical, we
are very conservative. That is why we are hesitating to decide about
the proposition at once, even though inside of a week 10c would un
questionably become $10 and inside of a year $1,000. And even
though we are sure that we could make 10c become $158,976.23
within five years.

having proceeded according to law. a
writ of review is the proper remedy.
