Or.. Sept. 21. At a meet In of the board of directors of the Hood River Commercial club. Attorney H. O. Kaufman was elected secretary of tha club to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of J.

BUREAU EMPLOYMENT IN NEED OF LOCATION One of the moet useful and practical of tha city's departments, the free em ployment bureau, which Is located on Madison street between Third and fourth, will be compelled to vacate its present quarters October 1, and up to the present no suitable location has bean found, although John O. Schroeder, who Is In charge, has scoured the city for a place. "Considering the work we do and the high class of applicants we take care of we do not wish to go to the north end, where women will be Insulted and decent men hate to go," said Mr. Schroe der. "There Is but one logical location, and that is In the city hall. At present there is plenty of room in the one story annex on Madison, and the only change that would l av to be made would be tha removal of some drafting tables and drawing supplies belonging to the water department. That department could easily secure room for these outside, and at a very small fraction of the rent we would have to pay. Unless we can get this annex It looks as though we might have to cli se our office. Which seems a shame, v hen the work wa ara doing is considered. "Last month the bureau secured em ployment for 863 persons; In August of ItlO, 2997; and in August 1900, 16S3. Altogether this y.'at we will provide for about SO, 000 men and women.- This Is done at an average cost of about H cents a person. Our applicants Include many billed workmen and experienced men and women. One man we placed recently aa a foreman la drawing 54 a week. "The annex of the city hall will put the office In a place where It will be out of everybody way, and yet will be convenient for those wno wish to make use of it. It will also be a place where anv -woman or girl can feel at perfect ease, and not be ashamed to be seen." CHARGES PREFERRED AGAINST DR. HEGELE Th Judiciary committee of the city council yesterday afternoon directed l.,r. H. W. Hegele, chairman of the au tomobile registry committee, to appear before the committee at Its next meet ing to answer to charges of gross Inef ficiency preferred against him by the Portland Automobile club.

Members of the committee lie lieva the ordering of another fender try Out would Interfere with the present equipment of the streetcar system with Nelson automatic fenders, these having already been adopted by the council as proper Safety devices.
