By order of the city council, all
budgets have been returned to the
beads of the various departments,
with instructions that all items- be
reduced to the exact amount that
was allowed by the tax conserva
tion and supervision commission
last year.
xnis was done - when it was
found that through a shrinkage of
assessed valuation of tiroDertv
the city of Portland the levy of the
entire 11 mills permitted under the
cnarter would bring in less than
was raised by taxation for the op
eration of the city last year.
, Revenue Greatly Reduced.
The total of the budget, as al
lowed by the tax commission last
year, was $3,649,134 and to this was
aaaea $160,000 allowed for the coun
cil a general emergency fund. The
city levied 10.35 mils last year. The
total of money raised by taxation
and through miscellaneous receipts
was guy, 134.
It was estimated by Chief Deputy
Auditor Grutze that the full 11-mill
raise S3, 245,000, miscellaneous re
ceipts would bring in $607,231 and
?36,700 eet aside to care for the
auditorium claim will come back to
me city Decause of the supreme
court s decision in which it was held
that the city was under no obliga
tion to pay this amount.
Budget to Be Pared.
Confronted with these facts, mem
bers Of the council fnlt that It vnnlil
be folly for them to eit for days
and attempt to extract ruthlessly or
otherwise more than $1,000,000, and
decided that the department heads
could bring the budget down to the
amounts allowed for the last year.
But in reaching this decision
members of the council were agreed
that some special attention would
be necessary to certain departments.
Mayor Baker frankly stated that
the police department, as now con
stituted, could not give adequate
protection where necessary. PeoDle
he said, demand traffic regulations
which takes men and there is a
general demand that the moral laws
be enforced.
"We have not enough men prop
erly to take care of these things
now," the mayor said, "and as for
police patrol, it is a joke."
Street Lighting Imperative.
Commissioner Mann served 'notice
that he must of necessity have a
$20,000 increase in street lighting, as
it would take this much to pay for
the electricity required by lights in
stalled during the new year. And
with thousands of applications on
file, some from districts now with
out any lights at all. Commissioner
Mann maintained that an additional
$20,000 for new lights would be the
minimum that his department could
ask.
It was agreed that the fire de
, partment must have some atten
tion, Mayor Baker pointing out that
police and fire protection were two
essentials that could not be neg
lected. So it is possible that when
the budgets are returned some re
adjustments will be made to give
' punce ana lire departments ad
ditional funds and probably to care
lor some new lights.
CANADIAN LOBBY VICTOR
DEFEAT OF
CHARGED
SHINGLES DUTY
TO SHEVtlXS.
Northwest Delegation Is Defeated
Sharply by Iowering of Rate-
Governing Magnesite.
THE OR.EGONTAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, D. C, Sept. 11. Failure
of the conferees on the tariff bill to
put a duty on shingles, as asked by
the Pacific northwest states, was a
victory for the most successful leg
islative organization that has oper
ated in Washington for many years
the Canadian lumber lobby.
The lobby was managed and fi
nanced by representatives of the
Shevlin lumber interests in Minnea
polis, which held something like
600,000 acres of timber in British
Columbia. The original fight was
to defeat a tariff oh lumber, and
this was comparatively easy because
northwest lumbermen were inter
ested chiefly in writing into the
tariff bill the provision which would
make a tariff apply on this side
when Canada levies such a duty on
the other side.
The opponents or the tariff on
lumber and shingles worked through
the Minnesota delegation, the last
stand in opposition to the shingles
tariff being made by Senators Nel
son and Kellogg.
The magnesite rate, as finally
adopted, is a sharp defeat for the
Pacific northwest delegation who
fought to have the house rate of
$15 a ton on the dead burned min
eral and $10 on crude magnesite
adopted. The rate as reported out
is $11.25 a ton on dead burned mag
nesite and $6.25 a ton on crude
magnesite.

At the Theaters.
Pantages. -THE
new bill opening yester
A day at Pantages is a splendid
one. Every act is notably good,
with a preponderance of very fine
singing. One voice particularly
stands out lor its tremendous beauty
and volume and power, it lives in
me tnroat of Marion Claire, a vi
vaciojis and animated foreigner.
Whether she is French, German or
xtussian tne audience could not de
cide, for she displays the training
and technique of foreign schools of
music. Her range is phenomenal
ana ner singing fairly electrifies the
audience. In one instance Miss
Claire sings Tosti's "Good Bye" in a
low, rich contralto and then turns
on amazing high notes which reach
a climax of great beauty. Miss
Claire is generous with her encores
ana returns again and yet again.
As a final offering she sings a flute
like obligato to a spirited rendition
of Sousa's "Stars and Stripes," which
brought her overwhelming applause.
Harry Downing and his company
is remarkably worth while. Against
a handsome and unique background
a musical revue of delightful pro
portions assembles itself. An excel
lent pianist, a young man, provides
the melody background, and there
are two lovely girls who dance. One
is an acrobatic toe dancer whose
technique is faultless and who
makes graceful and long sustained
risings and balancings on her toes.
The other maid calls to mind Mari
lynn Miller and is every bit as
graceful and young and talented as
is Miss Miller. A youthful man
dancer delights with his eccentric
steps and excellent imitations of
Georgie White and others. Out from
them all in this act, however, stands
the comedy of Harry Downing in
his travesty of a prima donna at
work. His comedy is spontaneous,
his voice is unusually interesting, of
two distinct qualities, one a light
baritone and the other a falsetto of
remarkable sweetness and color. The
the whole act sparkles with youth
ind gayety.
An artistic act and a musical treat

vusical Musicale," in which are

Uvea for something larger than
itself was the opinion expressed by
Charles H. Brent, bishop of New
York, in an address before , the
meeting of the members' forum of
the Portland Chamber of Commerce
yesterday noon.
The bishop, who was chief chap
lain of the American expeditionary
forces, declared that the disarma
ment conference, with all it accom
plished, was insufficient and that
a league of nations, an association
of nations or some other organiza
tion of an international character
was needed to preserve peace and
the best interests of the world.
Bishop Brent chared speaking
time with Cyrus Pierce, head of
Cyrus Pierce & Sons, investment
bankers, who told the business men
of his observations recently while
making a tour of France.
"America cannot remain isolated
from Europe," he said. "Our pros
perity here is dependent in a large
measure upon the prosperity of
European countries. We must aid
France and other countries in get- j
ting back on a firm business foun
dation and in ceasing to think only
of war."
