Cooperation between the various branches of the forest service was dem onstrated in the recent trip over the roadwork of Oregon and Washington by District Engineer P. H. Dater and Assistant Engineer T. W. Norcresa who found, in most instances, both super visors and road crews had left their road work to assist in fighting forest fires. Dater and Norcress spent three weeks In the district traveling some 3100 miles by railroad, 1200 miles by automobile and several more by "shank mare," as Dater calls it, inspecting the different irojects now under construction and looking over proposed projects. Norcress only recently came to Port land from Washington, D. C, and it was to acquaint hirh with the condi tions with which the forest service has to deal, that Dater took him upon the field trip. We visited 10 or 12 projects of the bureau of public roads," said Dater, "and went over a lot of minor forest road projects being carried out by the different supervisors. Among the things we visited the Canyonville-Gales-burg link of the Pacific highway, which is nearly completed and is quite a good looking road." Xhe engineers visited the Crater lake and Rogue river region, the Blue mountains, the Mount Hood region and several places In Washington, includ ing the Mount Baker project. PIER WANTS CITY'S MATERIALS HANDLED UNDER ONE MANAGER Commissioner Drafts Ordinance Intended to Save Money to Municipality. An ordinance authorizing the amalga mation of all duties connected with the management of municipal property! in cluding valuable stocks of tools, civic stores, city automobiles and garages, will be introduced at a council meeting in the immediate future by City Com missioner Pier. Presented informally to members of the commission Friday, the plan at once struck a reiponsive chord. Various municipal departments now handle all properties required by their several activities separately. This has brought about the result that when one department needs a dozen extra shovels it is necessary for that department to purchase the tools. , The concentration of property under one management, supervised by Commissioner Pier, will do away with this, and the requirements of all departments will be supplied from the one system of stores. The city water department ?ifi be most affected by the proposed change, but the plan has met with the hearty approbation of Commissioner Mann, who with other councilmen foresees economy as the result of its institution. In the same connection Commissioner Pier pointed out that the city is pos sessed of vast quantities of Junk in one storage plage are materials worth $2000. This, material will be assembled by the new property man and disposed of to the advantage of the city, accordipg to Commissioner Pier's plan'. CIVIC MEDALS FOR CANTEED GIRLS Mayor Baker Proposes to Reward Members for Service Rendered. American Red Cross canteen girls have rendered invaluable aid to mili tary, naval, municipal and humanitarian activities, according to the review of their work as expounded by Mayor Bake to members of the city commis sion Friday. The result is the proposal to reward members of the organization with civic medals similar to those given soldiers and sailors who went into the service from : the city. An order for sufficient medals to decorate the girls will be' dispatched at once. Mayor Baker pointed out, among other laudable works of the girls, the fact that 16 of them volunteered and worked long and faithfully at The Auditorium at the time of the Influenza epidemic, and are entitled to any civic recognition possible for their valor.

OF TRAVELERS AND HOMEFOLK Shows Only Good Pictures . A. H. McDonald, who operates a mov ing picture theatre at Eugene, is par ticular about ,the class of pictures he put on for the enjoyment of university students and Eugene residents in" gen eral. "I personally inspect every f 11m before I permit it to be shown In my theatre," says McDonald. "There are thrse kinds of pictures I will not show. I will not show any picture made from a notorious book. I will not exploit a picture which features any woman of notoriety and I will not show pictures that are bad in themselves. I believe that the (moving picture is the greatest educational institution nt tha Aav anVI should be properly .supervised. The mov- "'s picture snow is the social center of the little towns, and it is up to the owner to maintain a certain standard of pictures, just as it is necessary for the college to maintain a certain stand ard in the selection of its faculty. I will not pander to lower tastes." Mc Donald is returning from Seattle, where he has been selecting films for use during the coming month. He is stay ing at the Imperial. Portland Library Praised "Portland has, I believe, the best and most practically devised library building In the country and the library in my city, while much smaller.

She paid particular attention to the branch and deposit station systems. Another this week has been Miss Joanna Sprague, wno was me guest of Miss Mary Frances iaom, iiDranan, l-Tlday. Hotel Tailors on Strike Some of the hotels are out of luck to day, for their tailors have struck and refuse to press a suit, no matter how great the celebrity. Other hotels, whose tailors have not joined the union, are reaping a lively business, much to the dismay of the tailor-striking hostelries. One usually sweet tempered clerk who hitherto has met with smiling counten ance, all sorts of complaints from high cost of rooms to the lack of mail re ceived, almost lost his temper this morn ing when the obdurate tailor summoned before the desk, could neither be cajoled, threatened nor pleaded into pressing a coat which a guest was insistent should be pressed.

BEAUTY SPOT IMPROVED Site Presents Ideal Facilities for Bathing, Fishing, Camping, Dancing and Outdoor Parties. , Dodge park, a tract of great beauty and value, owned by the city water department and under the su pervision of City Commissioner John Mann, will be delivered into the keeping of the American Legion jiext spring, if the proposal broached to Mayor Baker and the city council to day is approved. Commissioner Mann has directed the improvement of some 10 acres of the tract already, 'and within a few days will have goats and sheep running on another section of 10 acres, eating away the underbrush and cleaning the place generally. There are some 30 acres in addition that may be cleared later. The park, little known to Portlanders, is at the confluence of the Sandy and Bull Run rivers, 24 miles due east of Portland, and although not on the Columbia river highway, it is accessible thereto. During the past summer the park be came the mecca of thousands of pleasure seekers, Mann declares. It presents ideal outing facilities, Including a splendid bathing place, fishing and like lures, and is available for camp ing parties. The water bureau, under other commissioners has kept the park sacredly closed to the public, according to the statement of Mann, but that condition has been changed and the department now invites the general use of the park as a public playground. The commissioner's proposal, which will undoubtedly be put before the council officially by Dow V. Walker, state secretary of the American Legion, who is enthused with Mann's proposi tion, is that the park be turned over to the management of the legion under the supervision of the commissioner. The legion will be permitted. If it chooses, to erect a dancing pavilion and equip concessions, providing the legion shall thoroughly and conscientiously police the park, keep up Its moral tone, and divert all profits to the le gion treasury. The scheme was Inspired by the re peated statement that the legion is and will be handicapped for want of funds to carry on its many activities, and Mann is paving a "path to prosperity for the legion in his plan. No admis sion to the park would be charged, nor would its use by the public be curtailed in any way, but tHe legion could profit by the Income froan dancing parties and concessions In turn for caring for the park.

Building, Portland MOTHER WHO STOLE OWN CHILD 'OUTSIDE COURT JURISDICTION Judge Sees No Method Whereby Mrs. Milln May Be Taken Into Custody. It is not probable that any action can be maintained against Mrs. May Milln for the abduction of her 17-months-old son, James McDonald Milln, awarded to the custody of Mrs. L. L. Pickens of Oregon City by Circuit Judge Staple ton at the conclusion of the divorce suit between Mr. and Mra Milln some months ago. It was learned for a certainty that Mra Milln is aboard a Japa nese liner headed for Hongkong and that she intends ultimately to go to Shanghai, the city of her birth and where her mother is at present residing. Circuit Judge Stapleton said there could be no possibility of extraditing Mrs. Milln on a contempt of court charge and he stated that he was doubtful .whether this could be done on any other charge. The baby was taken Sunday from the home of Mrs. Alice Milln, mother of Ralph Milln, the father of the child. Mrs. Pickens. In whose custody the In fant had been placed by the court, was away on a vacation and had temporarily turned her charge over to Its grand mother. Dr. Pickens said that he did not learn of the abduction until late In the night Sunday when informed by Mrs. Milln that the child had not been returned at 9 o'clock, the time fixed by the court. He said that the father was very much upset over the occurrence, but would not state whether he would follow his former wife to China and endeavor to secure possession of his son. Mrs. Milln called for her baby Sun day morning at 8 o'clock in company with Mrs. A. J. Devers. They arrived in a large automobile, leaving at once in the direction of Portland. Nothing further was heard of them until it was learned Thursday that they had gone direct to British Columbia on the day they secured the child, arriving there before nightfall Sunday evening. ,Tues day morning the mother and the child boarded a liner for Hongkong.
