"Only one other large municipal
kiditorlum in the United States, that
Mllwaukie, classes with that of
ortland In having a self-sustaining
!Cord," declared Harold M. "White,
anager of the municipal auditorium,
connection with discussions of its
udget. ,
'.Each of these institutions this
liar will be able to carry its oper-
lng expenses from its revenues,
id Mr. White, but this does not pro
de for the Interest and sinking fund
i the auditorium bonds.
Mayor Baker was enthusiastic in
,s praise of the municipal auditorium
h a large factor in obtaining for
ortland gatherings of national im-
irtance.
"Numerous times the auditorium has
oved its great worth to this corn
unity in landing large gatherings
ir Portland," said Mayor Baker.
nd it has been most highly com.
ended for its convenience and gen-
al excellence.
s.'IOOO Surplua In Prospect.
"There has not been an opera com-
iny nor a public speaker of high
te who has appeared in the mu-
clpal auditorium who has not highly
mmended it. The expert on aecous
38 for the Chicago Opera companj
ade a special trip here to'study con-
itions and he declared the accoustia
'onerties of the auditorium were the
tit of any large building west or
rticago."
Manager white stated . that the
ospect is that the auditorium will
ose the present year with a sur-
us of from $3000 to $4000 over op
ating expenses, and that bookings
r the next year (indicate a revenue
approximately $12,000.
In discussing the budget for the
lice court, the commission inquired
osely into the adyantages of having
lother police judge so that continu
is sessions of the court might run
illy from 7 o'clock in the morning
r 16 hours, and the mayor and city
mmlssioners declared such a plan
ould be highly advantageous. Mayor
uker urged the commisison to make
.'personal inspection of the police
atlon building, to note the conges
on and the necessity for better fa
lities in several departments.
Budgeta Are Adopted.
The city attorney's budget was
iopted without much discussion, as
) increases of salaries were proposed
r any of the deputies and provi
on was made for the employment
i only one more stenographer.
Similar action was taken on th
idget for the board of censors for
otion pictures. An item of $1972.50
asked for salaries and $200 for
penses, most of which is for post--te.
Mrs. Caldwell told the commis-
ion that 80 men and women volun
cr tfceir services in viewing the

Just before the session closed R. L.

aker was the only one to make a
ply.
"The matter is open to a lot ot
peculation," said Mayor Baker, "and

Consolidation Study herded.
Of course, the sheriff, the district
t torney and the circuit courts ar
irt of the state machinery, and I
o not see how they could be merged
ito a municipal government. That
lere is dipllcatlon of labors and of
. pernios In some lines is unquestlon-
le, but tie question is whether the
spenses of a consolidated govern-
ent would not more than offset this
pene.
"There are lines where I believe a
rge savin; could he made. For in
ance, I believe one big, high-class
an could handle the affairs of the
hools of Portland and the outside
rrltory. But there also is the ques
on of increase of public service that
ould be demanded under consolida-
on. Portland itself has 6(1 s(uara
iles of territory, and 1 don't know
actly how much is in the county
itslde of this city, but it is certain
iat demands for extension of public
rvioe would be made on all sides,
is a big question and demands the
osfst study of all its details by a
jmmisslon."

Proposal to Oust Married Teachers
Is Protested.
The Central Labor council is op
posed to any effort to remove from
the Portland schools married women
teachers who have other, means of
support, according to a statement is
sued yesterday by W. E. Kimsey, sec
retary. The statement was Inspired
by rumors that organized labor was
behind the movement to oust such
teachers from the public schools.
"One of the fundamental things.
said Mr. Kimsey, "always striven for
by organized labor has been the es
tablishment and proper maintenance
of public schools presided over by
efficient, unhampered instructors, so
that our children may receive the
greatest possible benefit for the time
they spend in school.
"While the council is in hearty
sympathy with and will lend its un
qualified support to any reasonable
effort to relieve the unemployment
situation, it realizes that there Is in
reality a shortgae of efficient teach
ers and is therefore opposed to the
removal of any who happen to be
married."

before Circuit Judge Kavanaugh yes

tive air. He had just been asked If
he had anything to say before sen
tence was pronounced In line with
the verdict of a Jury which had found
him guilty of the murder of James H
Phillips.
"No, I have nothing to say," he
finally drawled in a low tone, which
scarcely could be heard across the
courtroom.
Judge Kavanaugh thereupon sen
tenced Casey to be hanged on Thurs
day, January 26, and concluded, "And
may the Infinite Father of us all have
mercy on your soul."
Casey was remanded to the cus
tody of the sheriff to be delivered to.
the Salem penitentiary within 20

With Aspland, Cosby stole the
automobile of S. Rosenfelt on Novem

hold up A. L. Llndgren and M. Was-
serman relieving them of Jewelry and
money. The following night they ac
costed Mr. and Mrs. H. Y. Freedman
at Lucretla and Everett streets, tak
ing money and jewelry valued at
J1900 from Mrs. Freedman.
Shortly after noon on November 14,
while Mrs. Freedman was on her way
to the police station to make a more
detailed report on the crime, she
recognized the holdup pair walking
down Washington street, near Elev
enth. She was In the street car, but

was called into service but the men
saw Mrs. Freedman and began to run
