CITY WILL CONTEST
PHONE RATE ADVANCE
Public Service Body Target of
Legal Action.
BURLESON DUBBED KAISER
Ttisht or Commission to Fix Rates
of Wires Under Control of Gov
ernment at Issue.
The increase of rates jrranted to the
Pai-iCie Telephone & Telegraph com
pany by the public service commission
of Oregron will be contested by the city
of Portland in the circuit court.
The city cour.eil yesterday instructed
C'ty Attorney LaRoche to file .-uit in
the circuit court SRainst the Oregon
public service commission in behalf of
the city of Portland and invite as many
individual telephone users as are de
sired to enter the suit with the city.
Assistant City Attorney Tomlinson.
who apppird in behalf of the city at
the telephone hearings before the yulj
lic service commission, will conduct
the city's test case.
City Han Even Break.
Mr. Tomlinson told the city council
yetterdav that there was about an
even chance of the city setting aside
the order of the commission increasing
telephone rates in Portland. He also
fcald that, should the telephone lines be
retained by the government and the
order of the commission be set aside
by the courts, the government woold
be in a position to re-establish the
rates, leaving the city powerless to
take any further action.
Several Jurisdictional points are Ja
doubt, according to Mr. Tomlinson
among them being whether the publio
service commission has Jurisdiction to
fix rates or hold rate hearings while
telephone lines are in the control of
the government.
Legal Question In Tooht.
The question of the government's
right to fix or dictate intrastate rates
Is now before the supreme court of the
United States for settlement, Mr. Tom
linson said.
That the city council should take
active port in behalf of the telephone
users and make every effort to set
aside the ordr of the commission and
rrevent the increase in rates was the
attitude of Mayor Baker, concurred in
I y every member of the city council.
Commissioner Barbur suggested that
before action be taken a telegram be
.?nt to Postmaster-General Burleson
asking him if the government approved
the new schedule of rates.
Mayor Baker and Commisioner Bige
low opposed this plan, saying the past
efforts to secure information from the
postmaster-general had been futile and
such procedure was merely a waste of
time.
Burleson Dnlfd "Kaiser."
The council recured an offer of as
sistance from L. "W. Waldorf, who of
fered to. enter the test case as an indi
virtual. In his letter to the council he
referred to Postmaster-General Burle
son as "Kaiser Burleson, who should
be treated as other Prussian criminals
If he attempted to make any further
trouble in this country."
-Should the city be the loser In the
nroposed case the cost of attempting
to set aside the order of the commis
sion would be between $2000 and 1Z000,
according to Mr. Tomlinson. If the city
is the winner in the case the cost of
the unit to the citv would probably not
exceed $1500. including the salaries of
attorneys and experts necessary in
preparing the evidence.

bravely, however, and is doing some
good work at the Brentwood studios.

prospect. There is a. slacking up of
work in the far north and little is
contemplated for some time on the gov
ernment railroad. I would not urge

Salem is to prohibit jay walking along
its business streets if an ordinance be
fore the council weathers the municipal
legislative mill. The ordinance is even
mort drastic than tlie jay-walking re
strictions which were unofficially
adopted in Portland. If the ordinance
is passed, Salem citizens who cross
street in the middle of a block are
subject to a fine. Councilmanic objec
tion to the ordinance, was disclosed
this evening and it is doubtful if th

Inadequate for 300 Now There.
"More workers" is the S. O. S. call
that the committee in charge of the
campaign for funds for the women's
building at the University of Oregon
sent out from its meeting at the Hagol
wood yesterday noon.
The "flying squadron" began cover
ing the business section of the city
yesterday with good results, but the
field ia so large it will be necessary to
enlist the aid of all alumni who can
give any ttime - to the work. Head
quarters are in the office of the School
of Commerce, Oregon building, and all
alumni are urged to report at once.
President P. L. Campbell of the uni
versity met the committee at the lunch
eon. "It Is a problem now." said President
Campbell, "how we will accommodate
the women next year, for even if funds
are available at once, the building will
not be ready for use before tiie first of
next year. Dean Straub, who has J not
made a survey of the state, says the
enrollment next fall will be at least
1500. Of these about 800 will be wom
en. The present building is not ade
quate for the 300 or more women en
rolled last year."
The committee will meet at luncheon
at the Haielwood at noon tomorrow to
receive further reports. All friends
and alumni interested will he welcome.
