. Commission Thinks Traffic
Unduly Slowed Up; Slow

Market Street Driving is
Too Fast, View; "Slow"
Signs Wanted
' Elimination of tbe "stop" signs
on Center- street west of Capitol
and substituting "alow" markers,
was recommended by tbe city
planning and zoning commission
Monday night. Tbe recommenda
tion will be brought before tbe
city council at its next meeting.
This proposal was brought up
with a Tiew to reducing the num
ber of stops enforced upon north
and south traffic. Vehicles going
in those directions on Church, Cot-,
tags. Winter and Summer streets
must now make stops before en
tering or crossing Center, Court
and State streets.
Center Street Held
To Be Often Avoided
The result has been that many
drivers hate avoided those streets,
even driving several additional
blocks to do so, and traffic on
High street has become congested
as a result.
At the same time, the commis
sion recommended "slow" mark
ers on Market street at several
"stub" streets east of Capitol. It
was explained that traffic on Mar
ket is often dangerously fast.
The commission has been re
vamping the ordinance providing
tor formation of lighting districts
and installation of ornamental
street lights, and will probably
have a new ordinance ready for
Introduction at the next council
meeting.
Original 6rdinance
Vetoed By Livesley
The original ordinance was
amended by the council and then
at the commission's request vetoed
by Mayor Livesley, who asked
that a new bill be brought in pro
viding for a uniform lighting sys
tem. The commission's principal
objection was to the requirement
added by the council that plans be
submitted to the Portland Electric
Power company for its approval.
They held that a private corpora
tion should not be recognized as a
factor, in city government.

End of Cuban Treaty, Higher
Wool Rates; Duties from
Philippines, All Up
Sub-Committee Spends Time
Listening to Advocates
of New Proposals
By D. HAROLD OLIVER
Associated Press Staff Writer
WASHINGTON, June 24.
(AP) Radical changes in the
house tariff bill, Including pro
visions for termination of the re
ciprocal trade treaty with Cuba,
higher rates on wool, and levying
of duties on agricultural imports
from the Philippines, were recom
mended at hearings of the meas
ure today before three senate fi
nance sub-committees.
Chester H. Gray, legislative rep
resentative of the American farm
bureau federation, suggested ab
rogation of the Cuban-American
treaty under which each country
grants the other preferential tariff
rates on a long list of commodi
ties. He did not detail the rea
sons, but said he would discuss
the subject of later hearings.
Gray Asks Tariff
On Philippine Sugar
Appearing before the subcom
mittee on agriculture, Gray said
farm products coming into the
United States from the Philip
pines, including sugar should be
dutiable. The house rejected the
proposal for tariffs against im
ports into the United States from
its possession.
Questioned by Senators Smoot,
republican, Utah, and Harrison,
democrat, Mississippi, Gray said
his organization was neither for
or against the debenture plan
sponsored by the national grange
as a part of the tariff bill.
Gray was one of more than a
dozen witnesses heard by the agri
culture subcommittee before It
closed Its hearings on that sec
tion. This finance committee
group will meet tomorrow and on
Wednesday will begin hearings on
the controversial sugar schedules.

"Most of the. punishment con

That is the conclusion voiced
by Roy D'Autremont, Monday
upon rounding out two years of
the life sentence which was the
penalty imposed on him as well as
on his two brothers, Ray and
Hugh, for the slaying of three
trainmen at the Siskiyou tunnel
holdup October 11. 1923. The
three were "dressed in" at the
Oregon penitentiary June 24, 1927.
I am almost overcome with
pity at times for the poor boys
who come in here with six months
sentences and the prospect of a
parole in five months, and live
through a nightmare of remorse
and regret," said Roy.
"From observation I am con
vinced thatSB6ft sentences result
in the greater percentage of refor
mations. After a certain length of
time the convict becomes recon
ciled to prison conditions and the
effect of incarceration Is lost."
Judging from his bearing as he
sat in the office of Superintendent
Harry Meyers and told of his im
pressions of prison life, and the
cheerful smile which readily
lighted his countenance on occa
sion, Roy D'Autremont has made

MADRID, June 24. (AP)
Naval craft and airplanes tonight
were scouring the seas' in the vi
cinity of the Azores for traces of
the four Spanish aviators of whom
there had been no definite word
for almost three days.
An unconfirmed report that
wreckage with no trace of life
about it, had been sighted in tbos

the only ray of hope in the gloomy
situation. Four Spanish destroy
ers sped for Ferrol in an attempt
to verify this report while the

search it had begun on Saturday.
Premier Primo de Rivera, who
unwittingly had given false hope
to Spain on Saturday by authoris
