". Such was the gist of testimoi-y
g'ven last night by G. D. Ellsworth,
who was assistant superintendent
and engineer on the auditorium con
struction work. The appearance of
Mr. Ellsworth, who entered the serv
lve shortly after the auditorium was
completed and did not return to Port
land until a few months ago, was a
distinct surprise to the city, and was
considered by the claimants as an ad
dition of strength.
The testimonv of Mr. Ellsworth
was given before the auditorium
claims committee, composed of W. "Y.
Masters, chairman; W. C. North and
IUchard Martin Jr., which opened its
formal hearings in the council cham
ber. The claims before the committee
total approximately JT6.000. and the
city has been asked to assume pay
ment of at least a portion of this
amount and thus relieve N. F. Scha

Hans Pederson, the contractor.

negotiations were started for the re

tract was entered into with a com
pany in South Dakota.
The delay caused by the change in
contract for the face brick, the wit
ness averred, not only held up the
erection of the walls but also stopped
work on the interior and postponed
a large portion of the work, which

made under this contract but neither
of them is as finished or detailed as
the present production.
Unlike the special features which
have' been assigned to the Columbia
under its new policy of showing, only
the more expensive films, the charac
teristic of extravagance cannot be
applied to this film for the sake of
attaining extravagance alone. In
many of the recent special features
there is seemingly no object to bring
in monstrous and costly scenes, set
tings and costumes other than be
cause they are wonderful and obvi
ously worth their weight in gold. Yet
the settings for much of the action of
"The Yellow Typhoon" Is, Indeed, gor
geous.
The story of this .picture Is consis
tently thrilling. Miss Stewart has
able support and an unusually large

Report of Investigation by Deputy
City Attorney to Be Made
Today or Tomorrow.
Condenseries in Oregon are paying
$2.80 a hundredweight for milg of the
same test that is required of milk fur
nished to distributors of Portland at
3.20 a. hundred. A portion of milk
furnished to the condenseries is sold
by members of the Oregon Dairymen's
Co-operative league, an organization
which furnished the bulk of the milk
used in Portland.
This fact was developed by Lionel
C. Mackay, deputy city attorney, who
has been assigned to investigate the
increased milk prices.
Up to a month or so ago, the con
denseries were paying but $2.60 per
hundredweight for -milk, Ihe in
creased price now in effect havlnc
been agreed to but a few weeks ago.
Report Submitted Today.
' Mr. Mackay has not yet completed
his investigation. He is preparing
now a preliminary report which may
be sumbitted to Acting Mayor Bige
low today or tomorrow.
'Representatives of the Portland
milk distributors and producers are
scheduled to meet today to confer on
future wholesale prices of milk. At
the present time the distributors are
paying J3.20 per hundredweight
price fixed by the city milk commis-
sion four months ago.
Although investigation yesterday
snowed an abundance of milk avail
able, surplus stocks being found in
virtually every milk distributor's
plant each day. and even thoueh the
pastures are green and the hay crop
larger than usual, Portland milk con
sumers have little relief in siirht. so
rar as milk prices are concerned.
Rise Covers Distribution Only.
That is, if plans now under con
sideration are carried out. The re
cent increase of one cent a quart for
milk is made simply to cover some of
the added costs of distribution and
not on the basis of paying extra costs
which producers are demanding.
In a letter received by the distribu
tors prior to July 1, from officials of
the Oregon Dairymen's Co-operative
league, milk distributors are warned
to expect a substantial increase in the
whosesale price of milk after July 6.
Distributors claim that the present
retail price brings nothing more than
a fair return on investment, and any
increase in the wholesale price of
milk, will of necessity be reflected
In another increase of the retail price.
However, the city council, through
Attorney Mackay, is insisting upon
being informed of all deals which
concrn the consumer of milk, and it is
barely possible that should further
increase be put into effect, appeal
will be made to federal anthnrltli
for aid In fixing a fair Drlce for milk.
a price which will correspond with
the price of the same grade of mlk
furnished to condenseries.

"It was a joke."
When asked whether or not William
G. McAdoo would have been a stronger
candidate for the democratic parly
than Governor Cox, Senator Smoot
said, "I think McAdoo would have
been stronger and would have inspired
more confidence than Cox. He was
really the choice of the party. The
business wbrld has more faith in him
and would rather back him than Cox.
He would have received stronger sup
port from the women voters than
any other man the convention could
have nominated.
"Cox was nominated," continued Sen
ator Smoot, "with the idea of carry
ing New York, New Jersey and Ohio.
There is no chance of him carrying
any of these three states and very
few of the western states. Harding
will unquestionably carry Ohio."
Senator Smoot had no comment to
make on Franklin D. Roosevelt, run

confidence in the republican ticket
and stated that Harding would un
questionably carry the country.
Senator-Smoot expects to leave Port
