PORTLAND ARRANGES TO HARVEST CROP OF - EXPOSITION TOURISTS Meeting Names Committee to '-Plan Trips and Give Other Information,- : ALL ARE TO COOPERATE Booklet Telling- of Short Trips Za Be lag Prepared tj Chamber of . ". Commerce. -By Marshall Dana. Roer Williams of Rhode Island" attended .Portland's first conference of railroad passenger traffic , men. hotel manager ' and Chamber of Commerce heads,' yesterday. - He was comforted. There was no disposition on the part of, any present to deny that we have been neglecting our tourist crop and leaving the reaping: of 'it to others less well fitted naturally. i. .There was every disposition to pro ceed now with organized fclana. In making- the world acquainted with Port land and Oregon. When r visited hotel clerks. Infor mation bureau ' attendants and city ticket f agents -1 found general igno rance as, to such wonder features as . the Columbia River Highway. Yesterday a committee was author ized, to organize trips for all those - who meet visitors and who are called qn ;to Janswer questions. Then ques . tions can be answered Intelligently and .Interest can.be aroused by those who ; speak with enthusiasm because they : hay seen. - Will ampply Traavportatioii. - H. O. Jones of the American Auto i Touring company, who was. present, immediately offered to supply as much . transportation' for these trips, free of . charge, as may be requested of him by tthe committee. Dorsey B. Smith Offered to supply without charge the full service of his travel bureau at Third and Waahlng- ton streets, to' the Chamber of Com- merce, the hotels and the railroads, and - hi j) ted at the mass of information, ex act, complete and prompt, that he has 7 gathered in five years of Information 'giving.' - It was said that we can do nothing Hhis year to lengthen the stay of spe '.clal train parties whose itineraries ' Were arranged in the east, allowing, perhaps, but a few hours in Portland. , John M, Scott, general passenger agent of the Soythern Pacific, tmrne ; diately said that if Portland canvin- duce special train parties to be wlll V lng, schedules can be changed on the shortest notice, and time enough given I to see a reasonable proportion of the I beauties of Portland, i t Suggests AU Should Write. Robert H. Crozler of tb- S, P. & B. made a r most excellent suggestion. He said, let every Chomber of Com . merce member, and every, other Port 1 land citizen who will, write immedi ately letters to eastern friends ex l tolling the , beauties of Portland and ' vicinity and asking them to pass the Information to neighbors who contem t plate western trps. . , FrsCnk C. Rlggs immediately followed . this suggestion with another. He said let the Chamber of Commerce prepare such a letter for general use accu 1 rately and attractively setting forth the scenic facts. -This will be done. : i T Frank ) El Smith, who presided, by outline, showed, -how genuinely busy . Is the Chamber of Commerce, of which f he is acting manager, since first "Roger Williams" called attention to I Portland's tourist negligence. , , Booklet Being Prepared. A booklet is being hurried to press l by Mark Woodruff, of. the publicity : bureau that. nwill accurately and, inter estingly stale short trip information. Proofs of the booklet will be submitted s to railroads and hotels with request for f suggestions. Something has already been done in I respect to the suggestion for banners fin the depots telling tourists where to get ihf ormatldb, and chief points of ? Interest may be listed at depots. A contract has been made with the Foster-Reynolds tourist agency, that operates in 25 large cities, providing I that schedules made , by this ..agency will include Portland. I I Ruf us Holman, county commissioner, came saying that if only pressure can be- applied, the Council Crest' locp road T can be put in good shape for tourists in a few days. A resolution was adopt , ed asking the other commissioners and I the road department to hurry up. Hol- man also announced that yesterday the s government forestry service had - agreed to construct the long desired ,-road circuiting the east base of Mount ;Hood and connecting with the Columbia -river highway at Hood River, and with the Mount Hood highway: at Govern ment camp. - Flowers' in Booms of Visitors. Railroads' and hotels will cooperate i with the Chamber of Commerce In sys tematically furnishing ' information about the arrival of parties who should be given, special entertainment : State- societies will perfect a plan for putting flowers in the hotel rooms of visitors from their respective 'states and on the trains. - -, Among - the railroads ' represented were th following; ,S. P. & 8 Perm, sylvan ia lines,1 Southern Pacific, North ern Pacific, Denver A Rio Grande, Great Northern, "Canadian Pacific, O-W. R & N Santa Fe, Chicago, Mil waukee & St. Paul, the Portland Rail way, Light A Power Co. Some of the railroads had three to four representa tives present J and all evidenced th liveliest interest. Among jthe hotels represented wev the Oregon, Parkins, Nortonia. Wheeldon Annex. Seward, and there were several more that should have ; been represented whose managers have,, apart from the con ference, expressed willingness - to , co operate. ' John- M. Scott said all towns have equal opportunity for stopovers on 90 day tickets,-and that 'parties must be dealt with in advance of making up routings.-' -f j-:V"E-vf .;': , ';i.. "" Hany Snggestions BCads. L. Q. Swetland suggested that Cham, ber of :.. Commerce representatives' should be sent east, and at least one to San Francisco, the exposition city. Seven hotels of Portland, he said, have personal representatives there. -. p ir John -C. Alnsworth of the United States National bank urged work on the Council Crest - loop road. - vs . Dorsey B, Smith said he doubted if a tenth of those present knew, about the scenic beauties near Portland. . B-,C. Robbing of the Northern Pa cific said it had been almost impos sible to get Portland information to put into railroad folders. C. I. Horn said he had found evi dence that- California interests work against Portland, telling .travelers they will find here only rain. H. E. Vernon of the "Rib Grande told how his road schedules northern routings in its folders. All comments were evidence that Portland can awaken to the tourist viewpoint, that we may still realise on the tourist movement of and that another year, at least, we will be equipped, in this town to. keep tourists here longer than the present average of a few hours of daylight. Frank: E. Smith closed the meeting with this comment: i - "1 feel "encouraged. We have done the most Important thing found how to cooperate. ' We can look for better things. And, "Roger Williams, I hope you wllt give what we are trying, to do, as much publicity' as ydu did the tourist opportunities we have over looked." i : . j , ' " Bible ; Students ; Urged to Do Duty Delegates at Oakland Convention Told - Taey ICust Frepaxe Themselves tot " Berries trodac Orthodox ' BOIlsalnxn, .

On June 15 the war will case ' cost France : $4,800,000, 000. ' This announcement was made by Minister , of Finance' Ribot in pre senting a bill for new credits to the chamber of deputies. ' The - aver age cost of the war to date has been $183,800,000 a month; Ribot, said.

NO GARBAGE BONDS ARE TO BE VOTED ON AT ELECTION MONDAY ; Issue of $75,000 Already Authorized by:: People and Mandatory on Council.' - , r '-' - - . ; - -.' . ,: SYSTEM TO BE INSTALLED Question XTp Xow Xs Method of Bteet ing Cost of Administration; Voth- , lng More , or Zess. . There seems to be confusion In the minds of voters as to the exact intent of the garbage ' collection ordinance, which will be voted on next Monday. The ordinance asks the voters to pass on method of meeting the ex pense 'Of administering a municipal garbage collection plan, not to vote bonds to meet" the cost of installing a municipal garbage collection system. - June S, 1911, the people of Portland authorized the sale "of $75,000 with which to install' a municipal garbage collection system. It was then pro vided that the expense : of collecting the. garbage should be assessed against the individuals receiving garbage . col lection service. A negative vote on the garbage or dinance next Monday will leave the original bond authorization exactly as it was voted in 1911, and the cost of collection will be assessed only against Individual householders and . - others who receive service. - Xow Shall Expense Be Met. An affirmative vote on the garbage ordinance will give the city council power to determine whether garbage shall ; be collected at individual ex pense, or whether the cost shall be met from the general fund by taxa tion. Portland is going to have a munic ipal garbage collection system, - no matter what, the vote next Monday, because the vote of 1911 is mandatory, and ' requires t the city - council to ; sell the bonds and Install the system. ' . i The desire of Will H. Daly, commis sioner of publie "utilities, who will have the garbage collection in charge. Is that collections be made at general expense. ,-".-.' He has estimated that If the service Is charged to Individuals the cost: of collecting the bills will be almost as much as the cost of collecting the garbage. .y :-'' t rt S - : . -. It was estimated that where 60 per cent of the garbage Is now collected by private individuals, competing with each; other at a cost of $225,000 a pear, approximately 100 per cent of the . garbage' could be collected for $125,000 a year if the expense of ad ministering 'a public collection system were met from the general fund. ( Question of PnhUo Bealth. It was assumed that garbage collec tion ' la not , only a -' service to house holders 'and others, bat that It is a public health measure. , ? It : was evident that decaying gar bage jnot properly . disposed of men aces public health- v - It was seen that persons who failed to pay bills for. garbage collection could not be treated like those delin quent in the payment of water or gas bills shutting off the service. Garbage, then, would merely accum ulate, and instances like one recently discovered by the city health depart ment 'would be multiplied. A family lived in a house four - months and moved. away. An evil smell about the place caused investigation. In a closet was found garbage heaped four feet deep, consisting largely of food scraps. . System Will Be Installed. Affirmative . vote on , the garbage collection ordinance next week simply means that the people put It up to the cltyi council to decide whether collec tion of garbage at individual "or gen eral, expense Is most efficient and economical And the greatest safeguard to public health. The municipal garbage ; collection system will be Installed whatever the vote, and a new garbage Incinerator, also ' authorised .- some time ago, will be built immediately, to dispose of the Increase in garbage . collection. iWhat Ordinance 110 Means The ordinance gives the council power to fix the terms of a contract with the Humane society, and is not a plan to surrender revenues, but to in sure humane treatment of animals.
