MERCHANTS ATTACK
TRAFFIC ORDINANCE
No-Parking Rule Declared
Ruination of Business.
STREETS ARE GRAVEYARD
Steps Tukcn to Ilcopen Washington,
Alder and, Morrison Streets
to Automobile Customers.
Revocation of the traffic ordinance
which prohibits the parkins of auto
mobiles in Washington, Alder and
Morrison streets, Is . sought by the
business men of these downtown
thoroughfares, and at a meeting held
Inst night at 269 Alder street they
decided to go before the city council
to obtain their desires.
In place of the no-parking ordin
ance which prevails the business men
desire to have substituted an ordin
ance which permits the parkins of
automobiles for a period of JO min
utes. Boalneas Shown Decrease.
A committee of 32 business men
with stores in these streets, combined
with three representatives from the
Automobile Dealers' association, was
appointed to lay plans for a cam
paign against the prevailing ordin
ance. This committee will meet in
the office of George W. Joseph, in the
Corbett building, at 4 o'clock this
afternoon and will report back their
findings to a mass meeting of busi
ness men to be held at the earliest
possible time.
Protest after protest was made that
the no-purking ordinance which pre
vails In Washington. Alder and Mor
rison streets, was approved by the
business men. They say that since
the rules went Into effeot business
had been decreased materially and,
as one man stated, "the traffic ordi
nance has made graveyards of our
downtown streets."
Customers Driven Away.
"The business of our store has de
creased 15 per cent since the no-parking
ordinance went Into effect," said
J. B. Hawkins of Swetland's. "Citi
zens who once stopped their cars in
front of the Btore and obtained pur
chases now pass us by because if they
park for a minute without a driver In
the car they are arrested and taken
to the city Jail."
He also called attention to the fact
that the rules not permitting the turn
ing on all streets had greatly incon
venienced many business houses and
caused a decrease in business.
Ben Fisher, a business man in upper
Aider street, characterized his locality
as a "graveyard." He said that in
order to make sales to some customers
he was required to post a clerk in the
purchaser's machine while he or she
transacted business Inside.
.Many of the automobile owners of
the city have abandoned the use of
their cars and have stored them for
the winter, according to A. H. Brown,
president of the Automobile Dealers'
association.
'The same traffic ordinance that
we have has been tried out in De
troit and the citizens rose In arms
against It," he declared. "We are
trying to advertise Portland and to
make It popular with tourists. When
a machine from an eastern state ar
rives here and runs through the city
It Immediately breaks a traffic reg
ulation. The owners soon find them
selves at the police station and they
leave town with no friendly feeling
towards the city.
Strangers Are Sufferers.
"Vancouver started the policy of
having Its police treat strangers kind
ly. That policy spread to Seattle.
Let's be charitable with the out
lde visitors, for It would take a
man better than a Philadelphia law
yer to untangle and understand our
traffic regulations."
George W. Joseph declared that the
proper way to regulate trafflo was to
establish one-way trafflo on two of
the main east and west streets down
town. By way of explanation, hs
would permit automobiles to move
westward on Washington and Stark
streets and eastward only on Alder
and Morrison streets.
"By doing this, automobiles could
park In the streets as they once did
and neither business men nor auto
mobile owner will be handicapped,"
said Mr. Joseph.
Personnel f Committee.
The committee appointed to draft
plans to submit to the city commis
sioners is composed of the following:
George W. Joseph, chairman; W. JA
Woodward, J. C. Morris, Ben Fisher,
C. Tonseth, Alex Miller, Albert Fel
denhelmer, J. E. Hawkins, A. H.
Brown, Howard M. Covey, H. W. Rob
erts, Joseph E. Wiley, U M. Baldwin.
K. H. Bartholomew and' Felix Fried
lander. The meeting was called by Mr.
Baldwin and Mr. Frledlander. Julius
1 Meier, president of the 1925 expo
sition committee, was present, and
urged upon the business men the ne
cessity for their co-operation in the
1925 enterprise.
"I want to talk plain to you gen
tlemen," hs said. "It is being told
about t9wn that the 1925 exposition
will be held on the roof of our store.
I will say right now that I would be
willing to give every cent that I
may profit from the fair. I want to
see the exposition hers for the good
that It will do Oregon and every citi
zen In Oregon."
30-MIXVTE TAHIUXQ ASKED
Louis G. Clarke Writes Letter to
Mayor on Traffic Law.
Amendment of the trafflo law to
permit 30-mlnute parking on Alder,
Morrison and Washington streets,
with assurance that the ordinance
will treat all merchants, firms and
individuals alike, was requested In a
letter received by Mayor Baker
yesterday from Louis tj. Clarke,
president of Woodard, Clarke end
company.
"Our patrons and patrons of other
tores on Alder. Morrison and Wash
ington streets ate forbidden on these
streets to leave their cars In order
to make a purchase, unle-ss they
leave a chauffeur or licensed driver
In charge," the letter reads. "This
bars from our store the great body
of ordinary folks who cannot afford
chauffeurs, nor are they able to
bring other members of their families
to transact their business."
Mr. Clarke stated that not only Is
parking permitted on Sixth street in
the congested area, but that double
parking, as wall as parking In excess
of 30 minutes. Is being carried on
every day under the eyes of the
traffic officers.
The great department store

NEW BILLS AT
Hellig.
BY LEONE CASS BAER.
PAT BAIXTER is not a Portland
girJ. She Is a Californian and she
says that altogether she played
about six months with the Baker
Stock company. This In faint protest
and hoping it catches the eye of the
quartet who sat behind the humble
scribe and argued throughout fhe
play's length about the origin, his
tory and age of Fay Balnter. She Is
27 years old, and this Is her first ap
pearance here in 10 years, when she
played Ingenue roles with the Baker
stock and left by way of California
for New York, with $300, her savings
of years, not a helping hand In the
world held out to iter amd an ambi
tion that fired her soul. - "Some day
I'm coming back to Portland a star at
the head of my .own, company," she
predicted.
Last night she made good her vow,
and she could have made It good at
any time within the last five years.
Uor she has been a William Harris
star that long. If she had been a
Portland daughter the applause she
received could not have been more
genuine or more lasting. ."East Is
West," the play Miss Balnter brings.
Is an oriental "Peg o' My Heart." It
is a romantic tale that Is plausible
in character and situation, that Is
pointed in phrase and reasonable In
philosophy, and it has been placed in
settings which are superlatively real
istic in illusion, and has been cast
with players who fit their types as
splendidly as they act them. The
story, as far as the actual plot of
"East Is West" Is concerned, may be
easily told, but it Is not the kind of
story that can be sketched In a few
words without omitting pretty nearly
everything that comprises the fine
substance of thought and sentiment
and the delightful vagaries of fancy.
Also there is Fay Bainter, whose
wistful Ming Toy of irresistible hu
mor and infinite charm and allure
ment cannot be described in mere
words.
Ming Toy is a little maid of China
whose father. Hop Toy, Is in the act
of selling her to an elderly wife
fancier on a "love boat" in the Yang-
Tse-Kiang. An American, one Billy
Benson, visiting the boat, is impressed
by the beauty and youth of the pro
testing sing-song girl and persuades
his friend Lo Sang Kee. a San Fran
cisco merchant, to buy Ming Toy and
take her to America.
This Is the prologue.
The first act finds Ming Toy estab
lished in Lo Sang Kee's San Francisco
home as his foster-daughter, respected
and guarded. Her Americanization is
going on so rapidly that the dignified
old Chinese merchant Is appalled.
When he finds that Ming Toy Is flirt
ing with men who pass under her win
dow, that she has no confidence in
Buddha and has uith in the crucifix
of her "Clistian" Rod which she hides
under Buddha's image, and that she
is learning to dance modern move
ments from' watching the dancers in a
cafe across the street, the old mer
chant is saddened.
Her American tendencies scandalize
a nearby mission and Its members
wait upon the old foster father and
insist that they will send her back to
China, so he sells her, in desperation,
to Charlie Yang, a Chinese dandy, lib
ertine and tong leader.
Just at the proper moment Billy
Benson appears, kidnaps the sad Ming
Toy and' takes her to be his sister's
maid. Then we learn that Billie and
Ming Toy are in love and their plan
to marry shocks Billy's family. No
playwright yet has successfully
eivolved a situation that precludes the
possibility of the hero and heroine
living happily for ever after and with
each other, so in ihe melodramatic
climax we learn that the fascinating
Ming Toy isn't Chinese. She had been
stolen when a baby from her Spanish
mother and American missionary
father, so it's perfectly all right for
her to marry Billy Benson.
The prologue, with its love boat
floating on the moonlit waters and
the melody of the stringed instru
ments and songs of the girls, is pic
turesque and memorable. The room
at Lo Sang Kee's home is beautiful,
biles, and on Morrison access by
street car service." -
Mr. Clarke stated that his firm Is
asking for no favor, but the letter Is
simply an appeal to the mayor and
members of the council for Justice
for all.

ENTS ARE INFORMED.

Ths world trade bureau of the Astoria
ehatnher of commerce was organized
here tonight to -foster and encourage
foreign trade and ommerco of the
THE THEATERS
filled as It Is with oriental furnish
ings and draperies.
Miss Bainter is exquisite as Ming
Toy. Her pidgin English, her Inno
cent profanity and quaint slang, and
the wealth of detail in expressive
little movements amount to a posi
tive genius. There are several vivid
and poignant scenes when Miss Bain
ter brings an eloquent pathos and
fine sentiment to the role.
All of the acting is of a very high
order. Second In importance to Miss
Bainter is Robert Harrison's impres
sive and dignified portrayal of Lo
Sang Kee, the merchant. Ralph
Locke skillfully plays a novel and
humorous role as Charlie Yong. A
likable young actor, natural and sin
cere lo his playing. Is Ronald Col man
as a friend of Billy Benson. This
latter role is nicely played by Fred
erick Howard.
An evening of rare delight is In
store for those who visit the Heilig

Hippodrome.
rn HE LINCOLN HIGHWAY MAN"
" I Is one of the cleverest play's-
lets that has coma over the
Hippodrome circuit In several weeks.
It is a cleverly conceived story with
a real plot and plenty of surprises to
top It off with. There Is mistaken
identity and an automobile and a
keen girl and a clever man and as
sistants who lend helping hands and
words and actions.
George Palmer Moore Is the clever,
capable man whosa being a highway
man or not a highwayman is a mat
ter of happy conjecture for the audi
ence to puzzle about. Florence El
liott, a charming girl. Is featured with
Mr. Moore In the exceedingly bright
act. To reveal, the plot and the de
velopments would spoil the surprise
for patrons yet to view the act. It
is well acted and constantly enjoy
able: Joe ChriBtopher and Elsie Walton
are the lighskand life of a comedy
sketch called ''a Close Shave," written
by James MadiBon. Originality and
up-to-dateness mark this act, which
reflects quite as much credit upon
Christopher and Miss Walton for their
cleverness as upon Mr. Madison's
equally clever fdea.
A happy hobo Is Will J. Evans, who
makes his audience happy too. Will
J. Is of the Nat M. Wills type of
tramp comedian and has an original
twist to his philosophies and panto
mime that brings instant applause.
His stories and confidences are es
pecially good and he tells them en
tertainingly. The Tillers sisters are a pair of
likeable maids, full of lively chatter,
gifted In their feet and possessed of
sweet voices. - They have a billing
which the audience echoes in "More
power to 'em."
Alfred Time makes time fly mer
rily and Ethel Ward wards off dull
cars in their spectacular opening act,
an eccentric novelty turn, full of sur
prises and thrills.
The picture Is one that will draw
crowds to tha Hippodrome to sea their
favorite eowboy hero, Hoot Gibson, in
his new western picture, "Red Cour
age." The play Is full of action and
vigorous dramatic Incidents and Mr.
Gibson has a role In which he shines
with a fine supporting east. This bill
changes Sunday.

MAYO LAUDS AMERICANS
I ..
ADMIRAL PAYS TRIBUTE TO
MEN IX NAVY.
Spirit of Boys- Who Served Purina;
1 Great War Was vtonuenui.
Says Naval Officer.
In his talk last night before the
Portland Association of Credit Men,
Admiral Henry T. Mayo paid tribute
to the adaptability of the young men
of the United States as exemplified in
service during the war. The regular
monthly association dinner preceded
the talk. It was held In the Hotel
Benson.
"The spirit of ths men was won
derful," said Admiral Mayo. "There
was no hardship they would not and
did not undergo. Especially was this
true of those manning the destroyers
who first went to serve off the south
west coast of Ireland for the protec
tion of merchantmen. These men
served under a British admiral who
was known as a hard case, but who
at heart was very kind. There was
the very finest feeling existing under
this leadership. When I asked Ad
miral Beatty how he was getting
along with our men he said he would
not exchange his 36 American de
stroyers for 40 British destroyers, and
he was a great admirer of his own
seamen, too.
"I learned that our men as a rule
wre better navigators than the Brit
ish. When sent out to move to a
certain spot they more often hit the
place without trouble. The fault. If
there was any, usually was with the
merchantman, whose officers feared
the destroyers would not -arrive In
time to give protection. As a rule
these destroyers took more punish
ment from the weather than they
should under ordinary circumstances.
"Another thing noted was that
when an American captain came In to
report he would come alone and give
all details of what had been done
during the week at sea and exactly
what was necessary to be done to
his vessel. An English captain would
bring along the engineer and others
to give the details necessary for the
repair of his vessel, as the captains
knew little aboit these things."
