Construction of a . tmnel through
Council Crest " connecting Portland
with the rich Tualatin valley by l
direct route is proposed by Commis
fioner Perkins as a city reconstruc-
I u)ii project. A resolution will be sub
mitted to the council Wednesday
aulhoriziuir a special city election to
be iietd on June 3 in connection with
tii special state election ior submls
sion of the Tualatin tunnel and other
reconstruction . projects to the voters
i'tr approval. -
Bonds for a sufficient sum. of money
recessary to construct the tunnel will
tie itfued by the city should the voters
approve the plans submitted. Previous
t-rforta in behalf of the Tualatin val
ly tunnel brought estimates or
l.;0,wu and it is probable that with
toe increased cost of labor and mate
rial the project now would cost ap
proximately $:.000,v0T.
I'rajrrt Declared City Duty.
"Portland has a duty to perform In
connection with the reconstruction
period." said Commissioner 1'erkins
esterday. "The state has already
taken proper steps on a. $G. 000. 000 re
construction programme, and it is the
duty of the city to perform Its share.
The Tualatin valley tunnel if built
will connect -Portland with a produc
tive country, a valley in which grows
wonderful products.
"Kccause ot Inability to bring these
Vroducts into Portland at small cost,
a tcrrat portion of this valley Is not
. .trvclopcd. The tunnel would mean
Brent deal to the city, as well as to
the farmers and dairymen of Washing
ton county. Jn addition such a project
uo'ilrt serve to employ many men and
bridee the chasm which now confronts
r-i. between the endinir of hostilities
over there and the natural resumption
i'f business over here."
luriHK the past five years there ha?
I't'cn much discussion over the Tual
atin valley tunnel through Council
("rest. In spite of this talk, no official
ai-H'ii has yet been taken, some tax
payers having protested against the
plan on the ground that It was im
practical and visionary.

In addition to this project there are
A number of other reconstruction plans
under consideration by members of the
city council and which probably will
result in a special city election in June.
Commissioner Wicelow Is anxious to
secure authority to reconstruct a num
ber of fire stations in the city, re

Inspector Pluminer to learn what
ihancrs are necessary in the city .hall
to provide necessnry room for the
work of the various departments.
Kernodeling of the hall has been sug
tested by Commissioner Perkins as
matter of economy to avoid the neces

in relieving the throat irritation of

PORTLAND feminine patrons of mo
tion pictures have an apportunity
at the Liberty theater to acquaint
themselves with the most recent war
time styles in women's apparel by
studying the multitude of finery worn
by the star and principal actresses in
"Virtuous Wives," the screen adapta
tion of Owen Johnson's celebrated
novel. In which Anita SStewart returns
to stardom after a long period away
from the camera.
"Virtuous Wives" is a story of mar
ried life in New York occiety and as
such it had to be accurately and lav
ishly "dressed." Miss Stewart, in the
role of Amv 'Forrester, wears 11 dif
ferent dre- es and suits in the changing
.c?nes of the story. Mrs. Do Wolf
Hopper, wife of the. famous comedian,
also wears many magnificent gowns in
this production, while a huge bait gave
the director opportunity to utage
fashion show'.
Some Advantage Here.
According to Kitty Gordon, another
excellent., point in favor of the
"movies" is, that the romantic lead
cannot step out of the screen between
the fourth and fifth reels and state:
"Ladies and Gentlemen: I wish to an
nounce that the bill tomorrow evening
will be 'The Ladyof Lyons' In five
parts and that the closing bill Satur
day evening will -lie tho dramatic sue
cess, "Fabio Romani." The full strength
of the company-will appear in each of
these thrilling plaps which will be em
bellished with a wealth of special
scenery. There will be the usual high-
class vaudeville between each part. We
will now conclude wrtli the fifth reel
of 'Was She to Blame?'"

ATTORNEY RECEIVES RING
Police Association Gives Present to
Cliurles C. Ilintlman.
A large gold ring, on which a police
star with a diamond setting rests, was
presented Wednesday to Charles C.
Hindman, deputy city attorney, by the
Portland police beneficiary association
in appreciation of Mr. Hindman' serv
ices in drafting the police pension bill,
which was approved by the people at
the last general election.
Mr. Hindman has been ill for about
three months, first having an attack
of the influenza, which was followed
by pneumonia and emphyema. Mem
bers of the police bureau have awaited
his recovery in order to present the
token of their appreciation.
The ring bears the numeral S3, the
emblem of the association, chosen be
cause it was the number borne by Ben
Branch, who when recently given a
pension was the oldest member of the
police department.
Mr. Hindman will not be sufficiently
recovered to resume his duties with
the city for a number of weeks. It is
believed.
