PORTLAND, OREGON COUNTY IS BROKE BUT ROAD WORK MUST NOT i CEASE Multnomah county Is at present broke but Its -Intentions are right, the commissioners say. The state highway commission is asked to -go ahead yith work on the Mount'Hood Loop road,' in a letter 'written by Chairman Hoi man and sent to R. A. Booth of the state board. , fi The state is asked to evolve a plan for the road and do such work as it can at ice, leaving tliu business of providing funds to the state end county budgets The $85,000 Multnomah had available in 1920 for the work was lost when it was not used by December 31, 1920, the letter sets forth, and the county's pock ets are now empty. However, support is pledged by the commissioners, who most certainly favor the construction of this road at the .earliest possible mo ment." The suggestion is made that the 1922 budgets supply the needed funds. The state commission had offered to give as much money for the work as Multnomah and Clackamas counties combined. Clackamas is understood to have $17,000 available at present.

McLaren asked the county com missioners this morning for $5000 to help the Louise home care for the in digent children and' feeble minded who find refuge there. The home is in financial straits, Mc Laren says, and it j has for so many years taken cars of people who would otherwise have been on the hands of the county or state that: it is now entitled to -some financial help. ; The commission took the matter under advisement. "We have a small budget," said Chairman Holman, "and we have to consider carefully whether It should go to your organisation or to another." McLaren says the Louise home has cared for 12 feeble minded persons for five years, the cost being about $50 for each person each month, and for which the home received only $3 or $10 each month from the state. The expense of caring for them was about $18,000; Mc Laren says. - ! - t More indigent children are being ad mitted now. .

Sham rocks and green ribbons 2 will be tokens and orange will be, a color most decidedly not in good standing. The seventeenth of March is not only the birthday of St. -Patrick but also the anniversary of the traditional cleanup of all snakes and toads from the Emerald Isle. How this was done no one knows definitely. 'Some advance the theory that they were driven into the sea." An other group holds ' that the snakes set upon the toads and then set upon them selves until all but one 'was destroyed. What happened to the last one Is left to the imagination. ; . l". . . ; ' LEGEND IS RECALLED - ' j .

Grant in the stand that. the state commission is overstepping its Jurisdiction. The matter came up a week ago, when the city officials were notified of a hear ing before the state commission on the application of the Willamette Iron & Steel works for a permit to construct and maintain a spur track across Sher lock avenue. . The notice reached the council a day after' the hearing had been held. At that time the state commis sion's lack of jurisdiction was questioned by City Commissioner Mann, and he was instructed to investigate. v At the council session today Commis sioner Mann presented a letter from the president of the : state commission. . in which he said that while the commission had not received specific Instruction in the' Sherlock avenue' case from the at torney general, it had been advised in other and similar cases that it was within its rights to proceed. City Attorney Grant advised the coun cil that it should require the Willamette Iron & Steel works to make its applica tion directly to the city, and that the city should assert and maintain its jur isdiction of its streets. If the public service commission desires to maintain its position, says Grant, .the burden of proof lies up to that body. DELEGATION APPEALS FOR BEAUTIFYING BOULEVARD A delegation of a dozen or more men representing the Peninsula Development club appeared before the city council this morning to appeal for the lighting of Willamette boulevard and the pre vention of the dumping of tin cans and other refuse over the river banks along this boulevard on city-owned lands. The spokesmen were William Killings worth and Coe A. McKenna who urged the beauties of the drive along Willam ette boulevard and the possibilities of making this one of the famous features cf Portland if it is properly lighted and the river banks are kept free from rub- i bish and beautified. They asked that signs be placed along the river' banks prohibiting the depositing of refuse and that officers be instructed to make ar rests as an example. . The matter was referred jointly to the commissioner of finance ' and the commissioner of utilities,', with instruc tions to make a survey and report on the situation. But little hope of any immediate light ing of the boulevard through use of city funds was held out. however. "I asked for $20,000 for street light ing purposes," said Commissioner Mann, "and the budget gives me but $5000. That means curtailment everywhere. CTrY TRANSFERS FUND ; TO BUY , LIBERTY BONDS An emergency ordinance was passed by the city council this morning provid ing for the transfer of $4800 to the proper fund for the payment of purchase of Lib erty bonds for which the city has obli gated itself for sale to city employes on installments, but which the employes have failed to pay out on. It was decided to have Commissioner of Finance Pier investigate just how many city employes have failed to keep their pledges for the purchase of such bonds, and whether they are still in the city's employ. He will make a report at the next regular council session. City llall Notes Provision was made by the city council today for the purchase of a $2500 auto mobile truck for use of the new tree spraying apparatus for the park depart ment. The power of the' truck will be used in operating the tree spray, it was stated. Recently a new spraying outfit was purchased at a cost of $1350. The objection rff the city license bu reau was overruled by the city council today, and a license was granted to George K. Nakana for a soft drink place at 182 Second street. The appeal of Andro Chrlsto and Pete Rippas from the license bureau on the soft drink permit for 272 Bumside street was set for hear ing at 2 o'clock next Wednesday after' noon. F. M.
