PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 10
By virtue of temporary restrain
ing order issued by United
States District Judge Bean, the
city of Portland today is prevent
ed from enforcing the strap
hangers ordinance" passed some
days ago, which was to go into
effect tomorrow.
This ordinance provided that
passengers on street cars unable
to find seats should pay only three
cent fares and that Ii paying three
cent fares seats should be avail
able through other passengers
leaving the car, the three cent"
passenger should be allowed to
use these seats without paying
additional money.
One of the principal arguments
put forth against the ordinance
by the street car company Is that
by means of 1t large numbers of
persons after standing up a short
distance might obtain long rides
for only three cents as they could
take seats vacated by others.
