It has been suggested, commented
School Superintendent Grout, "that
two-mill levy be voted. The facts
clearly indicate that this would be in
adequate. Four special elections would
be necessary, covering a period of four
years, to raise $2,500,000 by an addi
tional two-mill levy. .
Delay Not Permissible,
"The school patrons must recognize
that we will be compelled to ask for an
additional two-mill levy, even if the
bond issue carries, to provide for the
normal growth of our schools, which
is progressing at the rate of 2000
pupils a year.
7hose who suggest the two-mill
levy as an alternative to the bond is
sue, are succeeding only in muddying
the water and confusing the issue. It
should be understood that the 32,500,
000 issue would take care of the com
Ing year's needs, and of nothing else.
Moreover, if a special election were
to be called and the two-mill additional
tax voted, it would be more than a
year before building could begin. The
needs of the present are imperative.
They will not admit of this delay
The attitude of those who suggest it
isn't sound at all."
B. S. Josselya Makes Statement.
The following statement, with 1
spect to the report of the sub-committee
on the bond issue, of the commit
tee of 100 on school affairs, was is
sued yesterday by B. S. Josselyn, chair-
mon of the sub-committee:
The committee did not have the time to
ro Into an extended and complete investiga
tion of the needs of additional school
buildinjrs in Portland, but was guided by the
exhaustive study ot the subject furnished the
committee by School Clerk Thomas, and
was convinced that the need was great for
additional buildings, particularly on the
east side of the river. But investigation
did not prove that the temporary buildings
now used were a menace to the health or
studies of the pupils, but. to the contrary
were superior in many cases to so-called
modern buildings from the standpoint of
ventilation, etc., advertisements in the daily
press to the contrary notwithstanding.
The committee objected to false state-
ments being made in regard to many points
of fact, for the purpose of creating a sense
of fear in the mind of the public and there
by cause it to vote in favor of bonds with
the feeling that if it did not that many pu
pils would not be properly housed and. in
danger of some form of sickness or disease.
Bond Issue Opposed.
As stated, there is no argument against
the need of additional school buildings in
Portland, as nothing has been done in that
direction of moment during the last four
years on account of the 6 per cent limitation.
which has prevented money being raised
from taxation In excess of the operating re
quirements of the schools. But the com
mittee does object to the means adopted for
financing the requirements through an issue

$2,500,000 bond issue, and direct atten
tion to the fact that the board already
has adopted resolutions declaring; that
the bond issue should have the support
of the public. The matter will be re
ferred to the club membership at the
Friday noon session. The resolution of
the board of governors says:
We believe that the question of matcin
our public educational facilities keep pace
with our population is so vital to the future
economic welfare of our city that monetary
considerations of present cost cannot be the
deciding element in the present icsue, and
that because of the admitted necessity of
further buildings wherein properly to house
the ever-Increasing; school population, now
far beyond the present capacity, are most
strongly of the opinion that said bond issue
should be passed.
SLOUGH BIDS TOO HIGH
COCXCIIi REJECTS- PROPOSAL
FOR CHAXXEL WORK.
Action of Park Officials Ronse9 Ire
of Commissioner Barbur, Who
Opposes Delay.
Bids for the digging; of a channel
from the Columbia river to the' Co
lumbia river slough, amounting to $391,-
700, submitted by the Pacific Bridge
company, were rejected yesteraay oy
the city council and City Auditor Funk
was authorized to re-advertise for bids.
The bid was illt.700 above City En
gineer Laurgaard's estimate.
Advice that a member or the Fort
of Portland commission had telephoned
to Commissioner Bigelow and advised
him that digging of the -proposed chan
nel would result in shoaling at the
point where the elough flows into the
Willamette river arousedi the ire of
Commissioner Barbur, who questioned
the sincerity of any member of the
Port commission who would make such
a statement at this time.
'It looks to me like a game to de
lay the Columbia elough channel proj
ect," eaid Commissioner Barbur. "Why
did this man not address a written
communication to the city council or
call on me? I am the commissioner
of public works and this matter has
been before the public for three months
or more. Why this effort to delay
the proceedings when we have bids
before us?"
'I am not apologizing for any mem
ber of the Port of Portland commis
sion." said Commissioner Bigelow, "but
in view of this information I believe
that all proceedings should be delayed
until we have had time to have a con
ference with members of the Port com
mission and investigate the situation.
The member of the commission who
telephoned me was Phil Metschan Jr.,
and I think he told me in good faith
The channel is planned as a part of
the Peninsula sewer system and was
authorized following an investigation
made by A. J. Wiley, hydraulic engi-
eer, who reported that the plan as
formulated by City Engineer Laurgaard
was feasible and practicable.

The special committee submitted their re-

that it was in reality a raport in opposition
to the bond issue and was so voted by the
committee as a whole.
The board of governors of the city
club repudiates the erroneous impres

Strand.
A THRILLING mystery story of New
York society Is depicted in "Sus
pense," the superb film attraction that
opened with the new bill at the Strand
yesterday. The plot tells of the ad
ventures of a beautiful heroine and her
adventures In attempting to regain
stolen documents.
Miss Mollie King is the beauty about
whom the storm of intrigue and aJven-
ure centers. Miss King s work in this
film is sure to add new laurels to her
present store of popularity. An ab-
orbing love story which appeals to
everyone is woven throughout the play.
The clever crook, as well as the lovely
belle, is interpreted by the leading
woman.
A short snappy comedy, "The Spell
of the Y-ukon," is another Strand at
traction that is sure to draw capacity
ouses. for it is full of life and gen
uine humor. Then the "International
ews" is given with Its up-to-the-
minute educational information and live
interest.
