.1 The member if this ; eommlndni
re of th. opinion that. tha city can
not be seUaTaetorUy operated if "It la
.'"entirely deprived of ttU. tn revenue,
and tkey therefora iirta a favorable
vote by the people on the measure
when submitted." V
This is the crax ef e, eteteroent by
the tax conservation comralialen per
taining to-the S-mill special tax levy
foe general municipal purposes on
wh lob ' the people' of Portland must
ote' iNovembar t. 'Tt la contained to
a letter-signed by all "member of the
commission and sent to Mayor Baker
in reply to a request for an expression
ef tlft commission's opinion n the
proposed levy. ' t "
j This Is the same, sort of levy that
tha people of Portland have twice be
fore approved; by; their vote, and it
was counted upon as a resource when
the 1923 budget was mad by the city
council.. The, at the . last moment,
technical tiueationa were raised as to
: the validity of maktas' the special levy
this year without again securing the
approval of the people at the ballot
box. For this reason it again goes on
-the ballot.
City officials are stressing: the point
that failure to ratify the proposed
levy would mean a curtailment of mu
nicipal service 21 per cent and would
be disastrous to many lines of public
service.

.After an attempt to blow tha safe
had failed, the office of the Columbia
Brock Works? at No. 302 East Main

Tackaberry and Phillips reported. The
combination had been jammed in an
effort to break iW and a soapy sub
stance was found pushed into the nar
! row crevioe around the door. Irons
! from the office fireplace had been
' used, some of which were browen
when the burglar; tried to pry ft the
combination knob.
The office files were littered to one
corner and a match touched to them.
Several matches were dropped In a
