Fnris Tnrtnv I WWII WIIWWS MISV4W WV)VJ 25-CENT CHARGE ORDERED Quarters Formerly TTsed by 75 Serv ice Men Xightly Xow Employed by Only Twenty Men. The question of free beds for soldiers, eanors and marines, now provided by the war camp community service in the old Atkinson school, again will come before the school board with arrival of May 1. Notice was filed with the school board yesterday by H. W. Arbury, ex ecutive secretary of the war camp com munity service, that a charge of 2a cents will be collected after May 1 or the equipment owned by the war camp community service will be moved into other quarters. The notice will be reported at the meeting: of the school board this afternoon. Concession Ends Today. As the result of much pressure being fcrought to bear by Mayor Baker, Rep resentative McArthur and members of the school board, the national officers of the war camp community service al lowed Portland to deviate from its policy of charging a nominal fee for beds under the supervision of its or ganization. This concession was made only until May 1. Unemployment con ditions of the northwest were given as the reason for the exception and the telegram allowing the beds to continue free to service men and to men dis charged said the request was granted on the assumption conditions of unrest would be relieved May 1. The Portland school board which has fitted up rooms in the Atkinson school and is giving free rental, janitor serv ice, heat and light, has insisted upon men being treated as guests of the city, no charge being made. This attitude was taken as a result of a resolution prepared by the building and grounds committee composed of Directors Plum rner and Thomas and which was later adopted by the entire board. No Men Kow Use Beds. The buildings and grounds commit tee has not yet prepared a resolution school board men in uniform or to men recently discharged from the service was expressed. When the matter was before the school board last March, Sec retary Arbury announced that should any move be made, it was probable that the B"nal B'rith building, which has been turned over to the use of the war camp community service, will be occu pied by the beds. When the question was first raised an average of 75 men were sleeping each night in the Atkinson school. At the present time not more than 15 or 20 men sleep there. Soldiers going to Camp Lewis who arrive in Portland at 10 o'clock In the evening are forced to wait until the following morning for a train going north and usually sent by the Red Cross canteen service to the Atkinson school. As many as 100 soldiers are sometimes sent by persons in charge of the canteen to the Atkin son school late in the evening. At this time of the night local hotels are said to be usually filled. CITY TO BOOST AIR FLEET Portland. Chamber of Commerce to Join OIxlo Body In PLans. The Portland Chamber of Commerce has been invited to join in a nation wide movement to acquaint congress with the immediate need for construct ive action for the building of an Amer ican commercial air fleet which will be in a position to compare with that of Great Britain. The invitation comes from the chamber of commerce of Akron, O. "Oregon's interest in this," said Sec retary Dodson yesterday, "combines with the realization o' fthe momentous importance of this commercial conquest of the air, the direct industrial impetus that will be given to the production of airplane stock, for the Pacific north west is the proven supply source for spruce, the material par excellence for building dirigible planes. Akron is the center of dirigible construction in the United States, and is desirous of adding to that prestige through enlarging to the balloon industry. But there will be other centers of construction, a branch of the industry in which Portland has already made a beginning, and pro duced many parts of the fleets built for the government during the past two years."

Death Kesult9 From Influenza In Seattle Shortly After Busi ness Relations Formed. The body ol the late E. "W. Eowe, formerly a resident and business man here, passed through Portland yester day on Its way to Its last resting? place at Lons Beach, Cal., and was accom- Danied by the widow and aaugrnter. The death of Mr. Eowe In Seattle last Sunday came as a shock to both his family and friends, as it was not known that he was ill. He had been stricken with influenza but three days prior to his death, and his wife and daughter were on their way from California to locate permanently In the bound city. They arrived an hour before his death. Mr. Rowe, who was an honorary life member of Portland lodge. No. 142 Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, was in a large measure responsi ble for the fostering of the first an nual Rose Festival. It was while an active member of the local lodge that he conceived the idea that some sort of a celebration ought to be arranged in Portland in which the famous roses would be the main feature. He kept at the idea continually and finally re ceived encouragement to such an ex tent that the first Rose Festival was staged. From then on it became a fixture and Mr. Rowa was & former president and member of tho board of governors for the annual event. He was a member of the Rowe & Martin Drug company and left Port land about eight years ago. He went direct to Long Beach. Cal., where he remained with his wife and daughter until about three months ago, when he took a position with Twohy Bros". Con struction company at Seattle and had been there -about two months. He was born in Owensboro. Ky., August 31, 1861, and came west when a boy. He married Miss Eunice Watson, daughter of a well-known pioneer fam ily of Oregon, about 28 years ago. He was a commissioner to the Lewis & Clark fair as well as to the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific fair in Seattle in 1909.
