November 18 at Portland, accord ing to information received Tues day by Charles M. Thomas, public utility commissioner. The hearing will be conducted by the federal power commission. Thomas said the hearing was requested in connection with a complete investigation of the iNortnwestern Electric company and its affiliated organizations. The Ariel dam, which is located near Vancouver. Wash., is valued at approximately $8,000,000, and furnishes considerable power to the Northwestern Electric com pany. Information desired by the federal power commission is the date on . which operations were started and the exact cost of the project. The evidence will be tak en by Ralph E. Williamson, com missioner. Thomas said, two state engineers had been conducting an investigation of the project for several months. The Inland Power & Light com pany, owner of the Ariel dam property, is a subsidiary of the Portland Power & Light company, Thomas declared. The latter com pany, with the Portland Gas & Coke company and the Northwest ern Electric are owned by the Am erican Power & Light company a subsidiary of the Electric Bond & Share company. The , Electric Bond & Share company holds service contracts with all of these local companies. The Portland Power & Light company, according to Thomas, operates the Ariel dam .and had contracted with the Northwestern company for the sale of not less than 15,000 kilowatt hours. This contract is now before the Oregon utilities commissioner to deter mine whether the charges are reasonable. Thomas said the Ariel dam was constructed by the Phoenix Con struction company, also a subsi diary of the Electric Bond & Share company. The construction costs are under investigation both by the federal power commission and the Oregon utilities commission, Thomas said.

S VOTE IN KE1ICKY LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 8.

At Tyrone, in the Bluegrass. Charles Redmond, 40, was shot to death and Sheriff O. Y. Walker of Anderson county, who lodged Tommy Shyrock, 85, in Jail, said he was told the men were enemies of long standing and Redmond had been drinking and followed Shyrock from the polls to a store where the shooting occurred. In the southeastern mountains four were wounded in a disturb ance at Four Mile, in Bell county, and at Island Creek, in Pike coun ty, Homer Fields, 26, was shot twice in the body and once in the head in an argument said to hare started over the election. Roose velt Elswick, arrested for the shooting, was quoted by the sher iff as saying he fired when Fields and another man "jumped on him." A physician said Fields had a slight chance to recover. Under the Brock-Gilbert elec tion law, operating in a presiden tial election for the first time, tabulation does not start until 10 a. m. Wednesday. It was also a great day for state officials. Not being; requir ed to work on the official holi day, many were seen in Salem and in Portland enjoying the arguments and listening to early returns. Returns started coming in early in the morning and shortly after noon the wires carried little else bat election returns. New Ashford, Mass., the small town which prides Itself on being the first to send in complete re turns, gave Hoover; 24 and Roose velt 8 votes. In the early returns, with several exceptions, this was about the only time the president took the lead. But the case is all settled now. Early in the day two women, in the east, had dropped dead of heart disease, one at the polls and the other Just after having voted. And then they say some people dont take elections and their right to vote seriously. Probably before the day and night had passed some others will be known to have taken this event in a serious manner.

BOHON INDICATED Bf VOTE .We are wondering how, if at all, the people in remote sec tions got to the polls without new license plates for the Liz ties. Perhaps they went right ahead and drove their cars without the declaration of 24 hour license moratorium. At least we saw no re porta of any arrests and opine that police of ficer would be so concerned over other matters that they might forget to notice whether or not the license plates were new or old. We didn't have time to listen to the radio, but Al Llndbeck of the press room brought a report about 30 last night that those who were watching and listening to the wire reports here on Commercial street were not only getting more dope, but getting it far ahead of the radio listeners. He tried both. Burglar Steals Two Suits From Lanke Residence Lucky for Herman Lanke, 1288 McCoy avenue, that the burglar visited his residence be fore Lanke retired last night.
