PORTLAND COUNCIL DEMANDS
TRIAL OF SLAYERS.
Resolution Aimed at Mob Rule Is
Couched in No Uncertain
Terms Heavy Vote. Cast.
Organized labor in Portland Thurso,
day nighwent on .record to demand
that the slayers' of .Wesley Everest, I.
W. W.. who was taken from jail and
hanged at Centfalia Immediately af-.
ter the Armistice day outrage, be
brought to trial.
The resolution, which was drlg'lnally
adopted by the metal trades council
in this city, was presented' to the
central labor council Thursday night
and adopted by a heavy majority. The
resolution condemned what it termed
mob rule in no uncertain terms, and
the- full support of organized labor
of Portland waa pledged to those who
are endeavoring to have the slayers
of Everest prosecuted.
A report of the labor legislative
committee Thursday night . opposed
placing a measure on the ballot at the
next election to repeal the criminal
syndicalism law. -Although organized
labor is opposed to this aqt, the com
mittee and members of .the, council
are tentatively agreed that they will
go before the next legislative session
to seek a repeal of this law.
." Further consideration of this meas
ure and advice of legal counsel will
be procured before definite action is
taken.
VIENNA. Smuggling., ol food -and
other necessities or luxuries becomes
a daily increasing scandal In this hun
gry city.
As the crown approaches the jd'is
appearing'point in value the opera
tions of these Illicit; pr "lefthand"
traders become bolder" and more ex
tensive. It is an old story now that
anything can be bought .for a price
in Vienna. The only nw phase is
that the price goes up daily. While
the city finds it difficult to supply
the bread, ration of a loaf ot coarse
black stuff, the components at' which
it would take a chemical analysis to
determine, at nearly double the price
of early autumn, white flour, can be
bought "by the lefthand" at about 100
cjowna for 2.20 pounds.
Beef Comes High. , .
American and Argentine tinned
corned beef can be had, -but delivered
to one's room, it costs about 80 or
90 crowns the pound. ' White loaf
sugar from Czecho-Slovakia is avail
able at a price that means about one
week's wage of the average office
man or woman for a kilo.
Venison,, mutton chops, goose, duck
and .other meats are here, but they
represent three figures of crowns for
one portion in restaurants. Seventy
thousand persons fought for 50,000
pounds of salt meat in a market sale
the other day.
For such things as shoes to order,
tailored clothing and similar things,
the price is no longer quoted in
crowns. The dealers charge in dol
lars, pounds sterling or francs, al
though this is illegal. They say they
must pay in foreign money for ma
terials and cannot sell in crowns.
The correspondent bought a suit in
October for 2200 crowns. This week
the same tailor asked the equivalent
of 9000 crowns in pounds sterling.
Kxcbange la flamed,
In the shops price, marks have been
removed from articles. .- The whole
retail trade is trying to adjust prices
to foreign exchange and that .fluctu
ates so rapidly that each sale is cal
culated on the day's quotation .from.1
Zurich (the Swiss franc rate governs
local quotations).
When the passenger train service
throughout the country was suspend
ed for -ten days the bills of fare in
the restaurants and hotels furnlsned
evidence of the extent of the 'smug,
gling business. Not only did moat
meats disappear, as well as green sal
ads, but the prices went up corre
spondingly. .Motor cars are scarce
and gasoline government controlled,
so even the accomplished - and re
sourceful smuggler found himself at
loss.
In the queues that formed in front
of ticket - offices when train service
resumed Jt. Is said that by far .the
largest - proportion o'f applicants were
smugglers anxious to. reach the prov
inces and secure the top - prices for
fresh food supplies. How they evade
the food conrol permits at provin
cial borders is not explained. Only
mere remains the evident fact thej

fNo Extra Charge to Be Made for
'Occupants Exceeding Certain
Number, Says Secretary,'
No' concerted " move to limit the
number of persons that may live in
an apartment of given size is being
made or contemplated by the- apart
ment house proprietors o the city,
according to Chester. FJorence, secre
tary of the Apartment House Owners'
association, in answer to a report
Thursday that, owners- had contem
plated such a move, - ffec'tive .on

Owners of flats in the city in 'sev
eral instances, according td reports
yesterday, had issued notices that
after April 10 the number of persons
allowed to live in each -flat .would-be
limited to five, and that -an extra
charge of 13.50 per month would be
made for each person- above ;th is -umber.
This, it Was declared by occu
pants, would work a great hardship
during the Shrine convention, as
many . flat and apartment house
dwellers had been planning to enter
tain guests at that time and to find
room for as .many - people mi. their
apartments as could possibly be cared
for.
The Apartment House Owners' as
sociation, composed of 40 or more
owners of apartments in the city, has
taken no action regulating the num
ber of persons living in apartments
nor in regard to making an extra
charge for additional people over a
stipulated minimum, .and contemplates
no -such, action, Mr. .Florence said.
Every effort will, be made by the as
sociation, he declared, to aid the ten
ants in caring for as large a number
of guests as possible during .Shrine
week, and thereby helping to ade
quately house the thousands of vis
itors expected at that time.

EVERY once in a while, say about
once a year, Mutt and Jeff hop
out of the funny papers and go on
tour as the plot in a musical show of
some sort. This; season they, have
outdone their past' performances, and
in Mutt-and Jeffs . Dream ' present
an entertainment far more pretentious
ana novel' tnan any of their preceding
offerings.-
There are three acts and three
scenes, a flock of principals, besides
the attenuated, long-nosed Mutt and
the diminutive, bewhiskered Jeff, a
group of chorus' maids and a fascinat
ing young dancer, Lillian Goldemith,
in this accounting, which is a visual
ized dream the two -characters have.
They visit a Chinese opium den and
experiment with the opium pipes and
fall into a profound slumber in a
bed at the back of the den. The rest of
the performance crAcerns the dream
the poppy plant brings to them. Danc
ing maids flit hither and yon, singing
and stepping, entertainers ot various
types offer- their wares, and through
the dream happenings floats the
charming figure of Lillian Goldsmith,
in dance divertissements.
Miss Goldsmith has been here on the
Qrpheum, in "The Stubborn Cinder
ella" and other productions, and is a
graceful, accomplished dancer, petite
and pretty. She has one dance fan
tasy of her own conception called
"Broken Blossoms," In which she in
terprets the emotions of a white girl
who is found in the Chinese. den and
appropriated by a Chinese.
Franklin Lambert, an excellent
dancer and a good character delin
eator, dances and enacts the role of
the Chinese. The role of Mutt is
given safe and sound treatment in the
keeping of Al Williams, while the
diminutive figure of Dan McCormack
occasions great hilarity in the nart
of little Jeff. The pantomimed com
edy of the two, their quarrels, their
agreements. . their misunderstandings
and subsequent adjustments, their
tricks and trials all run true to form
as Bud Fisher made them.
Among the noteworthy features Is
the excellent character impersona
tion of a. "bally English major," by
Charles Cardon, a realistic and amus
ing creation. ' The costumes are par
ticularly fresh and pretty and Miss
