The resolution. which will be Introduced at the regu lar weekly meeting of commissioners, provides for the naming of a commit tee from the Council to investigate the proposal. He suggests Mr. Bigelow Mr. Barbur and himself as a. commit' tee. Commissioner Kellaher says that he ill show commissioners that the city can sell public utility certificates to put over the proposed transaction. The resolution follows: "Whereas, un der various franchises of the city in years gone by many valuable rights and privileges have been granted for street railway purposes in Portland and the grantees have at will manipulated the privileges by retaining portions. merging some and abandoning others with the result that certain sections of the city are without adequate transpor tation facilities, while in others a sur plus exists. Certain grantees of these franchises while tenaci ously holding such rights and privileges as are by them consid ered advantageous, repudiate and dis regard other obligations and conditions embodied in said franchises. Whereas. The welfare and prosperity of the city, depending as It does upon stability and uniformity of street rail way service and the fare cnargea therefor, and certain sections of the city unserved or inadequately served by street railway transportation, and there having been an advance in street railway fares in the city and further advances are threatened with out any prospect of the public receiv ing service to compensate therefor.

President Addresses Simmons. The President's letter follows: "Dear Senator: "I am glad to respond to the question addressed to me by your letter of Octo ber 26.

(British Wireless Service.) Three British trawlers, al though outranged by the enemy guns, recently fought four German suDma rines until put out of action by the U-boats. An account of the engagement pub lished in the Times says the armed trawlers Onward, Era and Nellie Nutten were patrolling near the North Sea fishing grounds when a submarine came into sight. The trawlers opened fire on the sub marine. The submarine replied, boon three more' submarines joined in the attack on the trawlers, who kept up the unequal fight despite the fact that the Germans excelled them In gun pow er and speed The Captain of the Keute jvutten finding his ship helpless from a shot through the stern, steered toward Dutch lugger and abandoned his own vessel, which soon went down. The Captain saw the Era in -flames and the Onward out of control, and when he looked for them again soon afterward they were gone, WASHINGTON, Oct 28. The Spanish teamer Chatarro. bound from Cuba for New York, was sunk last night off the New Jersey coast. Her master and crew were landed in two boats.

"Every table should be spread and every meal should be eaten with the wants of all the world in mind eaten with war conscience to guide." This is one of the mottoes suggested by the National Food Administration for those In the 20.000.000 homes it will reach with specific conservation calls through home cards of that number, to be distributed in a campaign sched uled to start December 1. This cru sade was previously set for the pres- nt week. Since Influenza restrictions ver most of the United States made necessary the postponement of tne drive, appeal Is made that American itizens observe all possible food econo mies without awaiting detailed sug gestion- One portion of the appeal makes It nown that "we have taken 250,000 German prisoners, who must be fed." The statement explains, "But what is that, when we are sharing our food resources with 220,000,000 people of the Hies?" pound these policies of hostile discrim inations between one nation and an other. Weapons of economic discipline and punishment should be left to the action of all nations for the purpose of punishing those who will not submit to a general programme of Justice and equality. Trade History cited. The experiences of the past among nations have taught us that the at tempt by one nation to punish another by exclusive and discriminatory trade agreements has been a prolific breeder of that kind of antagonism which often times results in war, and that If a per manent policy is to be established among nations, every obstacle that has stood in the way of international friendship should be cast aside. It was with that fundamental pur pose in mind that I announced this principle in my address or January s. To pervert this great principle for par tisan purposes, and to inject the bogey of free trade, which is not involved at all. is to attempt to divert the mind of the nation from the broad and humane principle of a durable peace. by intro ducing an internal question of quite another kind. American business has in the past been unaffected by a policy of the kind suggested and it has nothing to fear now from a policy or simple interna tional justice. It is. indeed, lamentable that the mo mentous issues of this solemn hour 294 enlisted men of the Army who were saved, were announced tonight by the War Department: The names of those lost are: Andrew J.
