Rushlight Ap pears as Interested Citizen In Lively .Discussion, ' V- Resolved-m'That It taxpayers in these day of hfgu levies and hlg-h prices can pay their taxes and still eat meat they should pay a little mora to have tot meat InsDected." . Though delegations from half a dozen women's orfantsatlona debated for the affirmative at tha budget hearing In tha , tlty hall yesterday afternoon, tbe nega tive was not unsupported, Mrs. M. I T. Hidden declared that 'if the commission failed to set aside money ' for the salary of a meat In spector tha woman of Portland would go on a hunger strike, so far as meat Is concerned, refusing to either buy or cook It until they could know from tha city's "O. X that It was not from tuber cular cows, ; choleric hogs, or scabby eheep. ' ' , " V 1. Allen Harrison declared that high prices for meat bad already driven him to eating elams. "And," be added, "moat of this stuff about diseased meat le farce, moonshine and theory. Pretty soon we'll have to have a certificate to know If we can live at all." -' ' "Save that $80,000 proposed, for cut ting off street comers and employ a meat Inspector at $1100 a year," snapped Mrs. Hidden, Just aa Commissioner Dleck of the publio works department, who proposed tha plan, came Into the room. There was loud applause which XUeok Interrupted by saying pointedly: ''. 'The plan to cut off the street cor ners 1 purely ev health measure." !j ' Znadberf Opens Debate. Attorney B A. Lundberg, representing the Ad club, opened the debate In favor of meat Inspection,' He - averred that every woman's organisation In the city had Indorsed - the . matter, and , added: We have no way today to tell whether the meat served la diseased or good.. I have seen conditions In slaughterhouses about the city that make me sick right now to think of. - Let's Improve less streets , and sidewalks this year and epend a little more for health." ' -That's right that's" right."- echoed Hew J. v IX" Corby, v who had ' been, the first speaker, and had1 argued eloquent ly la favor of low taxes for the relief ef small home owners and young men who nave gone Into debt to buy homes. Mrs. Sarah A. Evans, market Inspec tor, declared she wanted to affirm all that had been said about tha condition . of th meat supply. . ' v ' Commissioner Blgelow explained that when the meat Inspector had been elim inated from tbe budget, the 'Idea had been that tha chief sanitary Inspector could do the work. :.

Other-matters were mentioned at the budget bearing, but the discussion came back again and again to meet inspection. Former Mayor Rushlight declared be fore the commissioners that he under stood that a Dresent lack of money was being charged againat extravagance in his administration. He cnanengea m administration to show hla extrava gance. ". " : "Tou'- have employed a , purchasing agent at $300 a month when tha 'Port land Railway.'

Tou can't make up a budget by public hearings. You've got to work late at night I am here to de fend myself against charges of extrava gance." " '..-. ' .'- Commissioner ." Dleck answered that he bad no thought of - charging the mayor with extravagance when he said that tbe $11,000 excess expense for the first tbree months of the new admin istration was half for expense incurred and unpaid during tha former admin istration. - "Juat the same,'' said Dleck, ."there wasn't much money on hand the first of last July." .. - , , Commissioner Bigelow said the fi nance committee of which he is chair man was not trying to settle tht. budget by public' hearings, but to bring the results of four weeks' work by the committee before the public a Yesterday was the first public bud get bearing held In the city's history. It lacked efficiency because no graphic charts were posted, no circular information- distributed:' there was nothine before the large attendance to guide them In dlsousslon ' of . specific Items L. M. Lepper and others -called atten tion to thle deficiency and. were as sured that at the next budget hearing, which will be held after tha councU adopts the tentative . budget, everyone coming will be provided with printed information covering all points. . Among the requests for appropria tions yesterday was one by Mrs. A. C Newlll, who asked that $2500 be - set aside to meet the expense of ? testing food .stuffs and textiles.
