The city of Portland is to have a
polar bear if a place can be found in
the city zoo, according to announce
ment of John P. Plagemann, manager
of H. Liebes & Co., in addressing the
Portland Ad club at its regular week
ly meeting and luncheon at the Ben
son hotel yesterday noon.
The fur company brings out from
Alaska every year in its steam whaler
Herman a number of cub polars and
several cub walrus, as wsjll as other
infants of the northland, captured
while securing the yearly harvest of
pelts, and when the vessel returns
from its cruise next 'year there will
be a little polar bear aboard for Port
land, promised Mr. Plagemann, if the
city officials can find a place to care
for the animal. Two years ago the
fur company brought out two. of the
finest cub bears ever taken in Alaska,
and both were turned over to the
New York zoological garden,-where
they now are.

crease of 45 over the preceding month,
according to the report to the chief
of police, submitted by Captain Lewis
of the traffic department yesterday.
Arrests in January, however, show
a much greater increase and indicate
greater activity on the part of offi
cers of the traffic bureau in enforc
ing the traffic laws. Arrests totaled
666, compared with 271 in December.
Fines imposed show a slight in
crease, those collected for law viola
tions' in January amounting to $2458,
compared with $23(9 in the preceding
month.
There were 91 persons injured in
January as a result of traffic acci
dents. There were no deaths. Persons
injured in the preceding month num
bered 80. -Of
the total number of accidents in
January, 449 were the result of care
lessness, according to the figures
submitted by Captain Lewis. Others
were caused as follows: Seventy
three failure to give right of way, 70
skidding. 38 speeding, 25 reckless
driving, 17 failure to signal, 17 cut
