T. L I 107 MEMBERS STATTOK, Dec II. More people were present at the P. T. A. meeting on Monday erenlng than at, any meeting during the season. Undoubtedly this was the result, of the recent member ship drire, as the secretary re ported that there are 107 mem bers in the Stayton organisation now. Various committees made their report, among them the fi nance committee, who suggested that the association put on an other play, to raise funds for play equipment. About two years ago members gare the "Zander Gump Wedding" and the net re sults from this amounted to more than 3100. Swings, 'rings, horizontal bars, etc., were pur chased with this money. There is still about $60 on hand and at the meeting Monday night it was voted to spend this on the swings. In conjunction with the A. A. A. the school is carrying out a safety campaign, boys from the upper grades acting as traffic of ficers at the main highway ar tery aear the schooL The P. T. A. members were asked to co operate. The boys are on duty 30 minutes . before . the opening hour of school aad fire mlnates after the opening hours, or such time as the school authorities decide. They escort the children across the street in groups and report to the principal, children who disobey their directions. Jay walking Is positively prohibited. While there hare been no acci dents as this particular cross ing, nerertheless there hare been some near ones, and par ents are glad that this means ot protection has been adopted. During the membership drire the association had been divided into two groups, with the under standing that the losing side was to entertain the aide securing the most names, or points. This was done at the Monday ere nlng meeting. Each member of the winning side was designated by a clerer cut-out of a nog, to signify that he or she was a "lucky dog". The losers wore a cutout of a goat. An excellent program had been arranged con sisting of piano and riolin num ber by Mrs. J.' W. Mayo and daughter. Miss Patsy Mays; a clerer negro monologue, written and given by Wanda Perrin; a humorous skit by Martha Foster and Laura Mills and a stunt by Naomi Tobie, Laura' Mills and Martha Foster - which- brought down the honse. -Walter Doxler pleased the audience with two piano accordion numbers.

Ellis. oae of the attorneys -for the pro ponents of the development does not look for final settlement of the litigation In less than a year. Ellis, home this week after spending a major part ot last week In Portland on the suit, says that whatever the decision is the matter will hare to go be- lore the supreme eourt. So new and so vital is the point in volved that neither side would be content to rest the case short of the determination of the na tion's highest tribunal. The Interstate commerce com' mission has ordered the Union Pacific to extend its line west across Oregon and thus to make good a promise made of such de velopment when the franchise was obtained to build Into Port land along the Columbia. The railroad authorities hold the government cannot compel construction of the cross-state line. Ellis said the proponents in tne suit would probably acaui esce to the railroad's request that the order for starting of construction be set ahead from January 1, 1331, the time when work was supposed to start, to July U 193L Ellis said that if such a request was not granted the railroad would obviously bring suit to enjoin enforcement during the pendency of the liti gation, . course which the court would feel obliged to follow. Calls Meeting Dallas Red Cross DALLAS. Dee. 1S Dr. A.

In which the Interstate commerce commission ordered the Southern Pacific company to reduce its . Inland rates to a'point not exceeding twice the port-to-port rates, is still a subject of controversy be fore the commission, William P. Ellis, counsel for the rate-reduction litigants, said here yester day. The railroad company has been ordered to make the rates effect ive January 30, 1131. This date was an extension of a number of weeks from the time the rates or iginally were to be effective. Now the road asks that the new ratse be held In abeyance until February 33. 1931. The company wants the Interstate commerce commission to have time to file a supplemental opin ion It Is preparing and also to al low the Los Angeles chamber of commerce to reopen the matter and present Its argument to the federal rate making group.
