Precinct 4S (inita.
The only precinct from which com
plete returns were not available last
night was Precinct 48. at 706 Wash
ington street.
Contrary to the specific Instructions
f City Auditor Barbur, the night elec
tion board at this precinct quit count
ing and locked up the ballots when
men began coming In to be registered
inder War Census day requirements
yesterday morning.
At all the other precincts the count
ing proceeded without interfering with
the registration of men of military
esre. But the votes in Precinct 48 were
locked up. The count was not resumed
again until 8:30 o'clock last night.
Consequently, the returns were miss
ing when final tabulations were made
last night. As there are 485 registered
voters in this precinct and the vote
was fairly heavy, the. missing figures
may affect the .tight race for Commis
sioner between John M. Mann and Dan
Kellaher.
So far as the race for Mayor Is con
cerned, the only effect 'rlll be to In
crease Mr. Baker's lead to probably
about 1500, as the precinct Is-conceded
to be a Baker stronghold.
Barbnr'a Total 27,431.
The vote on the four highest candi
dates for Commissioner follows:
Barbur First choice 19,790, second
8712, third 1929; total, 27,431.
Mann First choice 12,228, second

Measures lost include the two-platoon
Bystem, the free-streets-for-Jit-neys
measure, the telephone inter
change measure, the $75,000 garbage
collection bond measure and the two
anti-commission charter amendments.
Jitney Exprenslon Emphatic - t
- The" voters expressed themselves
most emphatically on the jitney ques
tion, and their verdict was for Jitney
regulation. The free-streets-for-jitneys
measure was buried in negative
votes, while the measure requiring a
$2500 bond of all Jitneys to protect
their passengers in case of accident
carried heavily.
On the other hand, the four measures
granting franchises to the Portland
Trackless Car Company, which applied
to the City Council for franchises to
operate jitneys under regulation, were
carried by large votes.
By their votes on these questions
the voters . demonstrated beyond ques
tion that they discriminated very
nicely between the Issues involved.
Fears expressed before the election
that the Jitney franchise measures

Lovely White Skin !
Strain lemon juice well before
mixing and massage face,
neck, arms, hand.
"By all means, girls, prepare a lemon
lotion to keep your skin flexible and
young looking. Tou will soon realize
that true loveliness does not mean the
jowdery-look or waxen colorlessness
of some hothouse flower, but is typi
' fled by the velvety softness of your
ekln, your peach-like complexion and
rosy-white hands.
At the cost of a small jar of ordinary
cold cream one can prepare .a full
quarter pint of the most wonderful
lemon skin softener and complexion
beautifler. by squeezing the juice of
two fresh lemons into a bottle con
taining three ounces of orchard white.
Care should be taken to strain the
juice .through a fine cloth so no lemon
pulp gets in. then this lotion will keep
fresh .for months. Every woman knows
that lemon Juice is used to bleach and
remove such blemishes as freckles,
fiallowness and tan, - and is the ideal
kln softener, smoothener and beauti
fler. .
Just try It! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint of this sweetly fra
Kranl lotion and massage it daily Into
the face, neck, arms and hands. It
should naturally help to whiten, soften,
freshen and bring out the roses and
hidden beauty of any skin. It is
simply marvelous to smoothen rough,
red hands. Adv.
grounds, proceeds of which the first
year are to be used to put a playground
in Marquam Gulch, was passed by a
big majority. '
Road Bonds Tote Heavy.
The vote here for the S6, 000,000 road
bonds issue was particularly heavy in
Portland and Multnomah County. In
eluding the county vote, with returns
complete from 370 .precincts, the ma
jority for the bonds is 18,452.
A significant fact in connection with
the Bean measure declaring the sover
elgn right o fthe state of Oregon to
tax the Oregon & California grant
lands, was that although the measure
had been barred from consideration by
the bupreme Court by reason of a tech
nicality in the vote in the Legislature
submitting it to the people, many per
sons voted for It in Portland. The
votes in favor outnumbered those op
posing the bill.
It had been printed on the ballot
before the Supreme Court decision,
though of course the votes on it will
have no official status.
Public Concern Demonstrated.
- The fact that even so the people were
anxious to register their votes in favor
of having the state declare its sover
eign right to tax the lands, against the
contention or me Government, which
would withhold them from taxation
and probably eventually will bottle
them up in a resrve, emphasises strain
the discriminating taste of those who
voted in yesterday's election in Port
land.
The following table of returns shows
the vote complete In Portland for 343
out of 344 precincts, and on state meas
ures voted on in the county outside of
Portland as well as in the city, com
plete from 870 out of 875 precincts.

Door Open to Labor.
As to my policies, a great deal has
been said against me during the cam

for political purposes. The people of
Portland need have no fear of & viola

Unfortunately, the labor question

4201 RECRUITED IN DAA
REGULAR ARMY MAKES RECORD
IJT ENLISTMENTS,
National Guard Tnits Report Ket In
crease ot 1S.OOO to 20.0OO, X ear
ing War Strength.
WASHINGTON, June 5. Regular Ar
my recruiting established a new dally
record yesterday, when 4201 men were
obtained as against an average daily
figure of 1500 since April 1.
The day's rtsults brings the total of
war volunteers enlisted for the regu
lars since Ap.-il 1 up to 101,493. leaving
less than 83,000 men to be obtained to
fill the Army to full authorized war
strength of approximately 300.000.
Incomplete recruiting returns for the
National Guard during the last ten
days of May show a substantial gain.
particularly among regiments not In
the Federal service. A net Increase
of 15.000 to 20.000 men is indicated. In
this period California showed a gain in
enlisted strength from 1S67 to 2S30.
On this showing ' the aggregate
strength of the National Guard should
be close to 200,000 men. leaving only
about 130,000 to be recruited to put all
existing regiments on a war footing.
At the present rate virtually all of the
regiments would reach full strength
by the time they are drafted into the
Federal armies in July and August.
Practically every state is making
progress toward the organisation of
the authorised units of the Guard.
CLERKS POOL FOOD ORDERS
Chicago Employes Find Way to Kc-

CHICAGO, May 31. A wallop has
been landed on the high cost of liv
ing by city hall employes.
George W. Bassett, secretary of the
department of public works. Instituted
a plan of co-operative buying among
the E4 employes of his office. In a let
ter he offered to buy food for all of
them at wholesale prices and save be
tween $1700 and $2000 a month.
Mr. Bassett has made arrangements
with six wholesale houses who are
boosting the idea of community buy
ing. In his letter urging the employes
to pool their purchasing Bassett ex
plained that each day he would post
on the bulletin board at the city hall
a list of wholesale prices on various
articles aa compared with retail quo
tations. "For example," says the letter. "A
well-known brand of coffee sold In
cans and retailing at 39 cents a pound
I can get for you at 28 cents. Eighty
cent English- breakfast tea I can get
for 48 cents. Ninety-cent tea I can get
for 50 cents. A 75-cent tin box of

for 53 cents. Within a day or so I
will have the prices on hams and bacon.

TEXAS SELLS IRON MINE
State Decides to Part With Its los
ing Industry.
AUSTIX. Tex.. May 31. The Legisla
ture has authorized the sale of the state
Iron industry, operated for a number
of years by the penitentiary system.
The property consists of a large acre
age of iron ore beds in East Texas,
a blast furnace, oast iron plant and
foundry situated at Rusk.
Whoever takes over the property
must rehabilitate the Industry and en
large it. To enforce this the purchaser
shall give bond to the state In the
sum of $100,000. George W. Armstrong.
of Dallas, and associates plan to pur
chase these holdings, and it was in
their Interest that the resolution was
adopted.
The state's iron Industry has never I
brought profitable returns. It was es-1
tablmhed many years ago and baa
been operated intermitently ever since.
From time to timethe Legislature was
called on to make appropriations to
cover losses sustained by the Industry,
and all told the operation of the Iron
plants has cost the people of Texas in
excess of 11,000,000.

The Willys-Knight motor is the
paradox of the entire automobile
industry.
While ordinary types of motors
lose their original effectiveness with
use the Willys-Knightgainsin power,
flexibility and smoothness.
This is not advanced as an engineer
ing theory but as a proven, fact
More than 12,000 owners who bought
Willys-Knight cars last year would'
be glad to tell you so and tell you
so enthusiastically. Let us put you
in touch with a few of them.
Carbon, which Is" responsible for
the undoing of ordinary motors, is
utilized beneficially by the sleeve
valve Willys-Knight motor.
While other motors are periodically
incapacitated because they must have
valves ground and carbon removed,
the Willys-Knight motor improves
with use and is sustained at top
efficiency because carbon is its recon
structing life.
