FOUR GET BACK JOBS G. W. Caldwell and J. F. Logan Restore Sewer Inspectors. HARRY GURR ON LIST, TOO Two Members of Civil Service Board , Declare Discharges of Men Were Not for Good of City, but Do Not Hold Men Desirable. ' All four of the sewer inspectors dis charged May 10 by City Commissioner deck for the part they took in the Jitontavllla trunk sewer investigation were reinstated yesterday by a vote of two to one of the Municipal Civil Serv ice Board. Reinstatement was on, the ground that it is not for the good of the city service to discharge men be cause of testimony they give under cath when they are forced to testify. The way was left open for Commis sioner Dieck to bring new charges against the men on the basis of what ever he may have against the men outside of what they testified to be fore the Civil Service Board In the case of Harry Gurr or before the Council in the sewer investigation. Mr. Eieck probably will bring additional charges and seek further to get riu of the men whom he says are not de sirable for the city service. Harry Gnrr Also Restored. The Board also voted to reinstate Harry Gurr to the eligible list January 1. 1917. Mr. Gurr was discharged for having accepted faulty sewer work, His case has been pending since Feb ruary. His reinstatement is merely to the eligible list from which appoint' xneits are made and 19 not reinstate- rnent to his position. The other four Inspectors M. McCarthy, Martin Dowl. lng. Richard Walsh and C. D. Jameson are given their positions back for with and are allowed pay for the month and a half they have been out. In Us findings the Civil Service Board says, "it appearing that the evi denes of the city is based solely .on the written testimony of the Gurr trial and the Montavilla sewer investigation. It Is ordered that the Civil Service Board finds that' the discharges of these four men are not in good faith for the good of the service and that the eaid lnsprctors be and they are rein ctateil with pay without prejudice to the right of the city to bring any charges based on any substantive act or face" The order was adopted by vote of Chairman George W. Caldwell find John F. l.opan. R. H. Thomas, the third member, voted against rein statement. Men Not TTpkeld. The two who voted for reinstate ment said It was not on any question fit fact as to the desirability of the men, but on the proposition of their being discharged for having testified under oath. Mr. Logan declared that such a system would bring about a state of affairs that a city employe would not dare testify against his su periors in the city service for fear of losing his -position. Commissioner Dieck, who attended the session yes terday, agreed that this was right and said he had no desire to establish such a precedent. He did not agree with the board, however, that the men should be reinstated. Mr. Dieck did not Indicate his Inten tion, but it is believed he will bring ad ditional charges and discharge the men again. CRY TO ACT ARISES CASE MAY BE DROPPED C. B. Pfahler Said to Have Given Reason for Burulng Records. Charles B.

A statement concerning the status of diocesan affairs and reasons for the burning of the books is said to have been made by Mr. Pfahler to Bishop Sumner, who Is now out of the city.

Complaints Received That Jitney Men Forsake Runs at Pleasure to Handle Tourist Traffic at Exorbitant Rates. Action Is now demanded by the Chamber of Commerce on the proposed ordinance which has been in the hands of City Commissioner Daly for the last two months, regulating drivers of llv ery automobiles, taxlcabs and sight seeing cars, bo that they cannot charge excessive rates and commit abuses of other kinds in connection with sight' seeing trips over Columbia River High' way. The Chamber of Commerce at its regular monthly meeting adopted a resolution urging action on the part of the city. Members of the publicity committee, to whom was referred the proposition of getting legislation to protect tour ists, report that they submitted an or dinance to Mr. Daly more than two months ago and that the measure now has the approval of all members of the Council except Mr. Daly, who is holding the ordinance in his office for reasons best known to himself. It is approved also by all the automobile people except the Jitney drivers' union. Complaints Pour In As a result of the delay all kinds of complaints are being received about ex cessive rates being charged by drivers not regularly in the tourist business. These are principally cars which oper ate as jitneys until something better looms up, when they violate the Jitney ordinance by deserting their Jitney runs and take up the sight-seeing busi ness. The ordinance as proposed would license all taxicabs. sightseeing cars and "for rent" machines and would fix the maximum rates to be charged. This would enable the city to put out of business the persons who are the source of the numerous complaints re ceived by the Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce Is thoroughly aroused by the situation and has instructed the publicity de partment to take such steps as will.be necessary to get immediate relief. Fnrad Seesi la Methods. The complaints are not only of over charges, but of fraudulent methods in getting tourists to take trips to the Co lumbia River Highway and then charg ing an additional fare to take them from Crown Point to Multnomah Falls. Among complaints was one last week when a man and his wife, stopping at SIX WILL WIN DIPLOMAS St. Iawrence Academy Exercises to Be Featured by Operetta.
