" '..The- teaching profession of Port land has been requested by the Port land Chamber of Commerce to ac quaint lUelf with the city's ideals and aspirations, especially as re gards the development of deep water transportation and the harbor. ' Thus fsr. the teachers haven't decided whether they will take up the subject It atl happened because one, fair moulder of young Portland minds re marked to a man who happened to be a member of the b"rd of governor of the chamber recently: "Why all this fuss about the Tort of Portland T Why not send things to Seattle, where there Is already a Rood harbor, 'and let Seattle ship them out?" MEMBER AMAZKP A member of the board of governors was paralysed with amassment. He brought op the matter at the next meeting, with a result that Assistant Secretary IVJIetherton was Instructed to write to the heads of the three, teachers' organisations, suggesting that they take steps to educate the teachers on matters of Portland development. 'jprlnclpal 'if. M. Sherwood, president Of' the Principals' association, denies having rex-el ved the letter. Mrs. Jen nie Richardson, president of the Grade Teachers' association, expressed sur prise that any Portland teacher should display such Ignorance, and said she would present tbe matter at the next meeting of the association In about two weeks. )IIHS I.ABRiBIF. INDICIKAST MIMs Leona? "Larrabee, who teaches Latln at Lincoln high school and who U president of the High School Teach ers' association, was highly Indignant. "I do not know that I shall take the pains to present It before" the associa tion or not," she declared. "If the Chamber of Commerce wartt us to know what the Port of Portland Is, why doesn't it supply us with that informa tion' or tell us where we can get it? Port of Portland I don't know what it is! They intimated we should acquire full and immediate knowledge and in struct every child in Portland. If the school board wants the children to know there Is such a thing as a 'port of Portland' It should Include It in the Course of study. ' "The chamber wanted us to become Informed with the ultimate object of spreading Information for the knowledge of ' the children. We have no right to teach new courses of Instruction with out orders from the school board. I don't know that I shall mention the matter to the association. There is nothing It can do. We're not running around looking for Information on the Tort of Portland." Portland Police on Alert to Thwart Bombing Attempt Unusual vigil is being kept throughout the business district by the police as result of Information received by Chief of Police Jenkins that Portland, will be" one of the next on the list of cities to be "bombed."

Jewell, chief of Seattle branch of the United States secret serv ice, who enclosed a copy of a letter which was received there, threatening several coast cities, .jhe letter may be a "fraud" or the hoax of a crsnk, but neverthelf-en.

Boys' Shop, Second Floor SELL - MAYOR HURLS HOT REPLY AT WITNESS IN THEATRE SUIT Witnesses tor the defense were being heard Jbef ore Circuit J udge Tucker in the action of, the Jensen & Von Herberg theatres against tbe motion picture operators' anion and other union organizations. An in junction is sought to restrain the unions or their members from in terfering with the business of these theatres, accosting the crowds as sembled in front of heseplaces, taking or pretending to take flash light pictures or from scattering on the streets, by airplane or any other means, handbills declaring the the atres "unfair." The hearing was begun Wednesday and probably will continue through Sat urday. ATTORNEY GRILLS MAYOR Mayor Baker, on the witness stand this morning, was grilled by Attorney W. S. U'lUn regarding the scattering of handbills In the streets. The intent of the questioning was - tcv show that only union labor organisations "or per sons or bodies that are unpopular." are Interfered with when they perform such acts, while business men and the sym phony concert enterprise use the streets for handbills with impunity. Various spirited passages developed between the mayor and his interroga tor. Baker said when the troubles at the theatres occurred requests were made that he provide police protection. He said he was Informed at a confer ence in the city attorney's office that the acts complained of were nuisances. legal authority being at hand for their suppression. "It Is absolutely false," said the mayor, "that the mayor or the police department have permitted any person to throw anything on the streets with their permission at any time. I have constantly instructed the police depart ment to try to get the persons respon sible for scattering any handbills on the streets." HOLDS UNION MEMBERSHIP The mayor wasn't certain whether or not he was a defendant in the action before the court. He said he might be an honorary member of some of the unions involved, but didnt know. He admitted membership In the brlcklay ers' union, but was assured that "this doesn't count." and he said at one time he had been a member of the stage hands' union. He said because of the explosions In New York and attempted outrages in Brooklyn the state of the public mind is such that he considered It his duty to suppress any troubles in the streets or In front of theatres, and he took the "danper" point of view rather than that of taking sides in union troubles. Photographer C. S. Woodruff, who took the pictures in front of the theatre i, raid he did it without any contract with the unions, believing the pictures would sell, and he denied having said he was paid $50 a night in advance, for doing this work. He and his partner, Harold Jones, bad been ordered to bring into court all photographs, plates or films taken In connection with the theatr? pictures, but U'Ren told the court he had advised his clients not to obey the order unless the articles were paid. for. The court ordered Woodruff to produce the pictures at the afternoon session. DOUBLE TRACK DAMAGES LAND, PLAINTIFF AVERS A rather novel phase In litigation de veloped Friday morning, when Bessie F. Meacham filed suit against the Ore gon Electric Railway company for alleged damages to her property, caused she claims, by the company maintaining a double-track road above the street ad Jacent to her property In Fulton Park. She seeks judgment of J 1100 for alleged depreciation in the value of her prop ert.v. The plaintiff says she was assessed for the Improvement of the street on the Suit ING Which tiro lots front ; that- later ' the double-track .;, railway 4 line- was con structed above street level and has since been so maintained.' making 'access to her . property inconvenient. ,- COUKT CLEARS CONFUSION ? . REGARDING KAXXAS NAME Nick Kallaa and Nick Kambouris were one and the same person. So de clared Presiding Judge Taswell of , the Multnomah county circuit court Thurs day In a . formal order.

LACK OF MUSTACHE SAVES - SUSPECT FROM COURT TRIAL The difference between prosecution j in the federal court and freedom for John Trefonoff, "V. Sasoff and Pete Chris toff laid only in a mustache. July 28 the trio were arrested by federal officers and 'charged with yiolation of the prohibition law. Between July 26 and Thursday Christoff deprived him self of his mustache. Because of this fact federal officials could not iden tify the man behind the counter, with a mustache, who was charged with selling hard cider. This dilemma also prevented them from picking out the proprietor. United States Commission er Drake therefore threw the case out of court and allowed the defendants to go unprosecuted. ASK DISMISSAL OF SUIT AGAINST LUMBER COMPANY A stipulation was filed in the fed eral court Thursday by attorneys for the Big Creek Logging company, re questing Judge Wolverton to dismiss the suit without prejudice which was recently brought against the Sam Con nell Lumber company. In the suit the mill was attached for alleged non-payment of a log bill. The matter has been settled outside the courts. Con nell said the day the suit was filed the shortage of freight cars prevented him from moving his finished product, and therefore prevented him from making payments on the log bill. The railroad company brought relief when the emer gency arose, so Connell now has his mill back. MR. AND MRS. C. S.

This was New, York's first "moving day since the new rent laws were passed, and it promised the greatest happy-home-and-firesJde tangle In the history of -the city.
