Use Mall Tribune want ada. lade (Continued from Page One.) The complaint that relief workers were paid a high salary was refuted by the report that "salaries and wages paid to administrative officers and employes are reasonably low." The committee did admit that the relief given In many cases was Insufficient to maintain a reason able standard of living, but that It was "sufficient to sustain life and safeguard health during a short emergency period. The standard of relief given Is not under the con trol of the relief administration, but is limited by funds available for relief purposes." Some Workers At Fault Continuing, the report found that "In many Instances complaints against case workers were found to be Justified, and In a few cases were sufficient to require removal. "That the practice with reference to payment of house rents has been the soirce of Jxist criticism, both by relief recipients and property owners. The situation, due either to lack of definite policy or want of uniformity, indicates an under estimate of the Importance of pro viding shelter and has the effect of imposing an unjust burden upon property owners. "Adequate facilities have not been provided for determining the eligi bility of applicants for relief or for eliminating those who no longer require assist ance.H Taking the situation In Multno mah county separately, the commit tee reported "there has been a fail ure to keep the social service de partment separate and distinct from other social service agencies, result ing in a lack of centralized control, want of uniformity In the standard of relief given and confusion in the minds of the public in general Mult nomah System Poor "That there has been a substan tial lack of uniformity among sep arate units and various groups In Multnomah county In the amounts, qualities and standards of relief af forded; and that the present system of administering relief in Multno mah county is defective in that It falls to make adequate provision for prompt contact between the relief client and the case worker." In addition to recommending Im mediate correction of the faults listed, the committee recommended "that the policies and practices ol the relief administration be care fully reviewed with a view to elim inating from the system any prac tice or course of procedure which may be found unnecessarily to dis courage relief recipients from be coming self-siistalntng through per sonal initiative. "That the use of the International business machine in Multnomah county be discontinued, and that a manual accounting system be In stalled In its place." A recommendation was made by the committee "that more adequate means be furnir.ied the University of Oregon for development of Its school of social service so thai it may be made to conform to the standards of the American Associa tion of Schools for social work." Still Many Needy In general comment the report stated, "The facte are there la still a great deal of want and suffering In the state of Oregon incident to unemployment. In every community there are on the relief rolls many fine people who are only there be cause of Immediate necessity and who will become Independent when- A free tide! through California!

Tel. .14 Here Tuesday 'The Scarlet Pimpernel," the latest production of Alexander Korda, who gave us "The Private Life of Henry VIII," begins a three day run at the Rtalto theatre tomorrow. Leslie Howard and Merle Obcron are co-starred In this new film play adapted from the internationally fa mous novel of the same name by Baroness Orczy. Howard is seen in the title role of Sir Percy Blakeney. who sacrifices the love of his wife and the respect of London society, by masquerading aa a fop and a fool at home so that he may conduct the dangerous secret activities of the League of the Scarlet Pimpernel, a daring little band of Regency bloods, pledged to snatch French aristocrats from the Tribunal during the Reign of Terror, ever Industrial conditions permit. There are also on the relief rolls lmposters who are not only un justly receiving relief but are do ing mucn to discredit the entire relief administration." In conclusion the report, thirty typewritten pages in length, de clared that "notwithstanding the large number of complaints so freely reported and the multitude of rumors so energetically circulated derogatory to the personnel and methods of the emergency reliel administration In Oregon, the com mittee Is convinced that the giving of relief throughout the state haa been, on the whole, reasonably well conducted. "The recommendation of this com mittee Is that so long as funds can be made available therefor the pres ent standard of relief be maintained in all worthy and proper cases."" William Powell in Craterian Picture Reminiscent of his role in "The Thin Man," William Powell has an other delightful detective character ization at the Craterian theater where he Is being shown with Ginger Rogers in "Star of Midnight." Taken fro mArthur Somcrs Roche's Red Book magazine story, "Star of Midnight," combines mystery, built around a murder and the disappear ance of a stage star, with a delightful blend of comedy, romance and sus pense. Powell is his smooth, suave self that motion pit cure audiences have taken to their heart since his recent outstanding success in pic tures with Myrna Loy, while Ginger Rogers Is a wise-cracking young lady who has decided that the crlmlnal oglst Is going to marry her and no two ways about it. It all starts out when Powell suc ceeds In getting some letters a gang ster chief has been holding as a threat over a married woman's head, with Powell believing they are let ters which the lovely Miss Rogers had written In a moment of weakness.

FREE TICKET THROUGH CALIFORNIA ON LOW SUMMER ROUNDTRIPS aa he Is about to break the news story of the year, and the sudden and mys terious disappearance of a stage star which, apparently, have no connec tion with each other. With suspicion falling on several characters, Powell and his shadow. Cilngcr. proceed to unravel the mys teries ol the murder and the di-siip-peurance while they indulge in some highly diverting comedy bits on the side. It makes the film play a fast moving vehicle, which shows off Powell to his best advantage and gives Ginger Hopera a chance to do a little something else besides danc ing, which It must be admitted does not need any "selling" after her re cent pictures with Fred Astaire. The team of Powell and Miss Rogers la a happy one. working toeether smooth ly and making "Star ot Midnight" a first rate attraction.
