Despite various wild rumors to the contrary, there is no 4 occasion ' for alarm. There is no . likelihood of any immediate dan v gtr and while both bridges are In need of repairs, they are not funda .' mentally in a serious condition. The above condenses the results of , the preliminary physical investigations of the bridges being conducted under the direction of C. B. McCullough, State bridge engineer. MAT CLOSE MORRISON 8PA3T . Closing of the Morrison street bridge for about 60 days while extensive re pairs are made looms imminent. In the report submitted to the board of county "Commissioners it ss recommended mat the whole deck of the bridge be rebuilt. .As the commissioners have practically gone on record as favoring any ad visable repairs, it is likely that the operation will be undertaken. The present sub-planklng of the bridge was laid in 1911 and Is in a bad shape. It would be necessary to re place this soon anyhow and in the opin ion of the bridge experts it would be the bent policy to construct a prac tically new deck. The plans submitted by J. A. Dunford, bridge engineer in direct charge of in vestigation, provide for cross beams undor the Ironwork of the span. The ' beams would greatly strengthen the structure and would make it possible for heavy traffic to use all parts of the bridge. CHANGES ARE ADVISED ' The plans recommend changes in the . floor Btrlngers to conform to the pro posed new deck. With the new deck it would be possible to resurface the bridge. It would bo sufficiently strong to support a surface different from the planking which has caused so much difficulty in the past The turn table on which the draw revolves had been found to be in reasonably good condition. The Investigation, started last No- ' vember, has been handicapped because plans of the bridges have not been ob tainable. It was first necessary to draw complete plans of the bridge. A second cause of difficulty has been the adverse weat-her conditions. A general survey and physical exami nation of each bridge was first made, then the special investigation on the Morrison bridge was commenced. Now a complete Investigation will be made of the Burnside bridge. The work will require three or four months. The arm examination Is being carried on under the supervision of the state highway commission at the request of the board of county commissioners. Repairs and strengthening of the two bridges may extend thetr life for many years. rrr Henry- M. Morse, who until recently was directly under Ralph Modjeskl. has .become associated with the local work. rURELT BUSINESS QUESTION "The advisability of keeping a bridge," Dunford said, "is quite another matter from the ability of bridge to , arry traffic. That question Is purely a business matter. It must be decided whether it Is a paying proposition to keep a bridge that holds up traffic by frequent openings. "The Morrison bridge has been kept in fairly good repair. It has been very busy and it has been very hard to take time to repair it and paint it as often as should have been done. The worst fea ture of the bridge is the board floor system which I understand the board of county commissioners intends to . change." Dunford would make no prophecies as to the probable life of the bridges, nor would he commit himself to any very definite statement as to their condition. Rids Here for School Supplies Samples of school supplies, together with bids, have been received by .School Clerk R. II. Thomas," and after being inspected by E. F. Stuart, the new supervisor of operations, will be sub mitted to the school board at its con ference meeting Thursday night.

Wrightman's application was received by Sam A. Kozer, deputy secretary, of state, Wednesday, accom panied by a check for 315 in lieu of the nominating petition.

No advance Information as to the pros pective platform of the new party Is available, but It is said to be based on a similar organisation already in ex istence in the state of Washington. Otto Hartwlg. president of the State Feder ation of Labor, will call the convention to order. At least 50 delegates are ex pected to attend.

A demurrer to the complaint alleg lng trespass filed against members of the fish and game commission by Sid ney S. Mohler was entered in the coun ty clerk's office this morning by Assist ant Attorney General Joe Bailey, acting for the board. The demurrer alleges' the Multnomah county circuit court has no Jurisdiction and that the complaint does not con stitute facts sufficient for action. Mohlcr stated he had purchased from Alfred D. Hawk and wife some 10 acres of land -bordering on Herman creek in Hood River county. This land, accord lng to Mohler, was leased to the fish and game commission by Hawk January 1. 1915, the lease to extend for five years. That period is now up and as owner of the land Mohler declares he requested the board to vacate, remove the buildings and to stop stocking the stream with fish fry. Contrary to his demands, he states, the commissioners continued to stock the stream and to use the property. He asks a temporary restraining order and a permanent order compelling them to surrender the land and to remove the buildings.

I, OF Palmolive Company to Build $500,000 Plant in Oakland And Not Rebuild Here. Portland will retain its hold on the copra industry, regardless of the de cision of the Palmolive company to es tablish its Pacific coast refinery at Oakland, Cal., rather than rebuild the plant here recently destroyed by fire, ac cording to Secretary Dodson of the Chamber of Commerce. "Lumber is- the principal export from this coast to the South Sea islands," said Secretary Dodson today, "and the same type of vessel which carries lumber products can be used to excellent ad vantage in bringing back shipments of copra. The oils and other products manufactured from copra find a wide market and the industry is of such im portance and so easily financed that Portland cannot afford to allow its dis continuance here, regardess of "what the Palmolive company may do." C. A. Painton. local manager of the Palmolive company, received orders Wednesday afternoon from headquarters of the concern at Milwaukee, directing him to proceed with the establishment of the new plant at Oakland. This de cision was reached at a meeting of the board of directors of the Palmolive com pany following the reading of a report by E. S. Pierce, vice president of the concern. Pierce recently visited the Coast and investigated proposed sites here and at Puget Sound, as well as the one offered at Oakland. The new plant at Oakland will cost about $500,000. according to Painton. The larger volume of shipping handled through San Francisco bay than through the port of Portland is the chief reason given for the change of location.

"The most idiotic thing I have ever heard of Absolutely absurd. I am go ing to take out citizenship papers right away." The above comprised the short inter view granted by Mrs. Mary E. Pringle, former chief probation officer, who se cured her divorce Wednesday, when asked concerning the rumor that she was intending to remarry immediately Unconfirmed reports had been circu lated that Mrs. Pringle intended to marry an American citizen immediately after the six months legal period so that she may herself become a citizen. Unless she does remarry, it will be necessary for her to go through the regular process by filing first papers, and she cannot, become a full citizen for 27 months. Although she has been a resident of the United States for many years and has held various positions under the state and county, Mrs. Pringle has never become a citizen, Mrs. Pringle came into the limelight last fall when she was chief probation officer under Judge Kanzler. It was discovered that she had been receiving state money for some time for various positions which she had held, although, being an alien, she was not qualified to hold them. Upon recommendation of District Attorney Walter II. Evans, Judge Kanzler released Mrs. Pringle, and since she has been associated with the child welfare commission. Mrs. Pringle was granted a divorce by Presiding Judge McCourt. She al leged drunkenness and cruelty as the chief grounds, although it was brought out before the court that with her hus band living in Scotland she could not become a citizen of the United States as she desired.
