I note from the statement which you have

I assure you that 1 have no intention of an

Moot Good In Object Sought.
My wnole Interest and desire is that all
the people who are willing to assist in the
noble work of providing work for -.nose in
dtntresa operate in a manner whereby the
iiu3i guou can do accomplished, avoiding the
implication or cltorts with similar overhead
in uu.'iierous locations, and as I
m vitally interested In one side of the
issue, mat oi tne unemployed, I have come
to the conclusion through experience mil
personal investlgaticn that there should be
uho cjeanng-nous to nandle the entire em
ployment situation, which, if properly and
efficiently conducted, will accomplish the
results desired and avoid unnecessary ex
pense along these lines.
On the ither hand, it is my belief that all

Terrea to tno organizations established for

It will receive proper consideration, and no

Greater Accuracy and Efficiency Is
Xoted in Regulation of Streams
of Vehicles Installation of
Others Is Considered.
Portland traffic which happened to
travel by way of Third and Morrison
streets yesterday felt the sensation of
being regulated with a modern new
traffic semaphore. The machine, which
was brought here last week by F. W.
Vogler. president of the . Northwest
Auto Company, was set up in the
center of the intersection and presented
to the city. It was accepted in behalf
of the city by Mayor Albee and H. P.
Coffin, chairman of the Public Safety
Commission.
During the entire afternoon the ma
chine successfully regulated traffic by
aid of Traffic Policeman W. C. Bender.
Autoists and drivers of other vehicles
had no trouble in following the orders
to "stop" or "go" as "issued" by the
automatic policeman.
It was a case of watching the signal
and stopping when it read "stop" or
suing sueau over tne intersection when
it read "go."
Signal Operated by Lever.
The policeman "operates the signal
by means of a lever. When he wants
traffic to .move north and south he
moves the handle and the word "go"
looms up in front of the vehicles wait
ing to proceed north and south. The
same movement automatically places
berore the eyes of the traffic moving
east and west the word "stop."
At night the signals are given by red
and green lights, the red indicating the
word "stV and the green the word
go."
"Saved about 200 pounds of wind '
said Traffic Policeman Bender, when
he completed an afternoon of success
ful operation. "It is a lot better than
blowing a whistle to regulate traffic
and there is less -danger of a mistake
in the signal. Two blasts of a whistle
may easily be -mistaken for one blast
or vice versa, but there Is no mistaking
the signal."
Semaphore Is Portable.
The semaphore is portable, being
mounted on a broad, heavy cast Iron
base on which are the words "Portland
Police Bureau."
The arms and lights are supported

two feet above the head of the traffic
policeman's head. The signals can be

and made it a gift to the city It has

To Avoid Common Colds
Of all so-called slight ailments, none
is more common, and few are more
troublesome than a common "cold.1'
Somo persons, it is true, do not "catch"
cold under conditions where another
certainly would, and this we have been
accustomed to explain is due to lowered
vitality and lessened resistance in some
people, as compared to increased vital
