L LIKE LITEST FILM Millions of plcturegoers who thrilled at the sight of "The Big Parade" will get no less satisfac tion from witnessing the screen ing of "The Crowd." King Vidor'a latest production for Metro-Gold-wyn-Mayer a picture as epochal for peace as "The Big Parade" was with its spectacular back ground of war. Vidor has woven "The Crowd" out of the everyday happenings in the lives of the millions of Ameri cans who make up the great mid dle class. There is not an incident that does not rinar true to life and is not entirely logical. You can Imagine yourself any one of the characters of the cast. You have had the same struggles, the same fun, the same disappointments and the same happiness that Vidor has brought to John and Mary in "The Crowd." It Is the opinion of the writer that no other single picture has had In It as many truths and ex pressed in so logical a manner. The picture Is bright with humor In many spots and is drab with unhappiness in others but It Is life. This picture or real life, show ing ourselves on the screen, may be seen at the Elsinore today. - ASK CHEAPER POWER PORTLAND, Ore.. April 17 (AP).

POTHERS 1 Twaow mLmgmuzs arunnua ESIKflE RATES OF TWO UTILITIES Portland Electric Power Company and Northwest ern Electric Named Investigation of the rates, charges and service of the Port land Electric Power company and the Northwestern Electric com pany was ordered by the public service commission here Tuesday. The investigation follows the recent defeat of the proposed mer ger of the. properties of fhe two companies, and the automatic death of a previous order of the commission , reducing electric rates in event the merger was ap proved by the voters. The first step in the investiga tion was taken last night when the two companies were requested fo send to the commission a com plete and detailed Inventory ot their properties. This inventory will be used In establishing the valuations of the two concerns for rate making purposes. The last valuation of the Port land Electric Power company's properties was made In 1916 and totalled $46,862,971.92. No val uation of the Northwestern Elec tric company has been filed with the commission. The valuations of both companies will be brought down to date, members of the commission said. Taxes paid by the Portland Electric Power company In 1913 aggregated $185,477.11, as against $76T,696.81 in 1927. Hearings will be held under the direction of the, public service commission and the rates of the Portland companies will be com pared with utility corporations op peratlng in other cities on the Pa cific coast. . The Investigation was said to be in line with the probe of other public utilities now being conduct ed In Oregon. PORTLAND, April 17. (AP).
