E. G. Crawford, vice-president of the United States National Bank, was chair man of the meeting;, which was a ses sion of the commonwealth conference. Cluouns from the records of the city buildlns inspector Mr. Crawford pre sented information aa to the present situation in Portland. He declared that from a surplus of 1300 bouses in Feb ruary none are vacant today. Mayor Baker, in a brief address welcomed Mr. Adams to Portland as e. visitor whom it was a special priv ilege to have because he could advise J'ortland on a matter in which the peo ple are vitally interested. Reviewing what England has done In housing workers. Mr. Adams told of the building of an industrial town of 60U0 population, all engaged in war in dustry, with every modern convenience, within a few months, and the estab iuv.n.n hr nf a contented, happy population that expects the place will be a permanent factory district, in ma Instance, me speaKei &iu, 11 " . ,.j Uirrhen that supplied ineals daily to workers employed manufactures plants for the govern ment, and the facilities of the ki"heit were as perfect and the food furnished es wholesome and desirable as that ol k. hotels.

"If vou feel that growth that is to come to Portland in these Industries is only temporary, then you might be justified In considering temporary relief, but if you feel that the growth is to attract to Portland the best type of skilled labor, which is really the basis of profitable returns from industry, then vou will not be satisfied with anything lees than permanent construction and buildings of a character that will in- ' eure the highest efficiency among the workers engaged in your industries." Mr. Adams assured his hearers he Hid not wish to try to suggest what J'ortland ought to do, because he did not have personal knowledge of local conditions, but expressed his conviction the Faclflc Coast will experience a tre mendous advancement during the war, " that will insure the continuance of CARLTON BURIAL TODAY NATIVE OP MICHIGAN CAME OREGON IN 1S90.
