The mayor declared that the need of the day is not so rnieh to save the boy or girl who has gone wrong as it is to keep boys and girls from going wrong.

APPLE CROP TO " COME THIS WAY (Continued From Pas One) tors at hte rate of about 300 per day when the normal deliveries should be almost 1200 daily. ' "Special trains of box cars are be ing made up for the fruit. One box car special is being filled at Hood River and orders have been placed for two special trains nexfc,week. We do not have the cars now for next week's movement, but we do not an ticipate trouble in getting the neces sary equipment. The agent at Hood JUVer seems to have the situation as Well in hand as possible under present conditlosn and we can only hope for relief through' a breaking of the con gestion in the East." shortage of refrigerator Cars menaces apple crop , Hood River, Or., Oct. 11. Not only are refrigerator cars not available to handle apple shipments from this point, but it now develops that there is a serious shortage of box cars. Pros pects for the next two weeks are any thing but encouraging to shippers of fruit. " So serious is the situation today that the Apple Growers association, has de cided to immediately investigate the full possibilities of shipping fruit by the water route from Hood River down the Columbia to-. Portland and from Portland on seagoing vessels to the Atlantic coast. Something of this na ture will lave to be done in order to keep the fruit moving, for although cold storage space is available there is not sufficient space to hold anything but a percentage of the crop this year. f It is understood that arrangements Will be made with the Harkins trans portation company for ' facilities to carry part of the crop by river boats or barges down the Columbia. Within the next three weeks it is probable that less than 60 box cars will be available to shippers here.

BECOMES COLLEGE HEAD "Dr. Minthorn made all the arrange ments, but he did not take charge of the school again. Instead he accepted appointment as the first president of Pacific college, then Pacific academy at Newberg. "I was at Newberg at the time and a member of the college board. About this time. Dr. and Mrs. Minthorn hav ing lost their young son, they received word of the death of Dr. Minthorn!s sister. Hulda, at Long Branch. Iowa. Her husband had died previously and hey left one son, Herbert Hoover Bert. , "Thinking that Bert would take the place of his own boy. Dr. Minthorn sent for the lad and put him to school in Pacific college. He was then 13 or 14 years old. "Xbout this time the doctor and I became interested In the prune Indus try, and he resigned as president of the college. We went to Salem and there organised the Oregon Land com pany, which , developed thousands of acres of prunes In the Willamette val ley. Hoover came along with us and was In our 6ffice at Salem for three vears. Then'the doctor had him go to Stanford university, from which he later graduated. ."We left Salem in about 1900. going to Hot Lake, where the present great sanitarium stands. We built the first hotel there and handled some 1500 pa tients. We sold out to Walter Pierce and other men in the locality. MANY ALASKA TRIPS "Since 1900, Dr. Minthorn has made frequent trips to Alaska as physician it Duncan's mission, sometimes stay ing for years and sometimes only a few months. After the first trip, he returned to Oregon and located at Newberg and buiU the first bathhouse and sanitarium. Newberg has always remained his home. Everyone there j kno ws him. "T-T( Alt A ..klU kin way back from one of his Alaskan trips and he later married Matilda At kinson, a missionary worker. That was four years ago." Through all of his business enter prises. Dr. Minthorn retained his seal otis missionary spirit. While at New port, he conducted a Bible class, and Cook told of seeing 130 business men and laborers gathered In a little tent back of the Presbyterian church at the coast town, listening to the doc tor's quiet, forceful talk. i Besides the widow. Dr. Minthorn is survived by two daughters, Gertrnd Minthorn, a missionary In India, and Mrs. Mary Strench, whose husband is fn the government, service at Ketchl ttan, Alaska.

Heretofore, the city has been put to considerable ex pense on this line, says Mann. The ordinance provides that when the council is petitioned to vacate Streets In which are water mains, gas mains, steam heating mains, conduits. sewer mains or laterals, poles, wires or other -utility facilities, the petition ers must file a surety bond to insure removal' within 30 days after the streets are vacated of all such utility facilities to locations designated by the city engineer. HOSPITAL PERMIT REFERRED to City Attorney Grant An application from the Klock Sani tarium company for a permit to main tain a sanitarium at Tillamook and East 15th streets, before the. city coun cil today, raised a protest -from resi dents of the district, but it also de veloped that the hospital may not be required to make any application at all. The question was referred to the lty attorney. The hospital has been in operation for eight years, although ; not under one management, and for some time it was operated as the Ounderson Yost nursery hospital, before the ordinances required that hospitals take out per mits. Commissioner Barbur main tained that the ordinance ts not retro active, and that although the place has recently passed into new ownership, its continuous operation would exempt it from asking for a permit. LAUREL HURST ASSESSMENT HALTS, FENDING AGREEMENT Although the entire assessment for the purchase of block "A," Laurelhurst, by the city has been spread on the as sessment rolls by City Auditor Kunk, i sending out of notices has been held up because of the failure of the Iaur elhurst company to file an agreement to assume $4500 of the purchase price of 10,500. The verbal agrement was that the company should assume, this amount and that $6000 should be assessed to the properties within the district, with the exception of $250 to be paid by the Portland Railway, Light & Power com pany for its right of way through the block. But so far the company han dling the Laurelhurst real estate has failed to come through with a written agreement pn tin's line, and the assess ment roll will not he approved by the city council until such action is taken. CITY HALL BRIEFS The Associated Oil company is ask ing the city council for a permit to erect and, maintain a service station on East 39th street, between East Washington and East Stark streets.

Spf)kane Company Attempts to Block Cement Shipments Portland is still in the . midst of a cement "famine" and the situation was further complicated today when the city council was notified by offi cials of the Oregon 'Portland Cement company that It has been notified of an attempt to kill off the emergency ariff that would permit shipment of cement by rail from "other fields. The Lehigh Portland Cement com pany of Spokane, which originally made objection to am emergency tariff for cement on one day's notice, now has filed protest with the interstate commerce commission against the tariffs- going into effect October 15, on the ground that it cannot procure cars. , Under the emergency rate it would be possible for Utah concerns, which have a surplus of more than 200,000 barrels of cement, to lay down the product in Portland at a price to the consumer not more than 25 cents above the price of the ; local product, the council was told. Representatives of the Oregon . Ce ment company said they are doing their utmost to relieve the situation, and are bringing in 27,000 barrels of Riverside cement by water. - It was urged that the mayor and city council, the chamber of commerce and building organisations send tele grams to the Interstate commerce com mission, protesting against the latest attack on the emergency tariff. The council took such, action, and it also will ask the Oregon representatives at Washington-to press the . matter with the commission. GRAZING EXAMINER BACK J. L.
