WITHDRAW REQUEST
Notify Commission They VIII
Not Ask Increase at
This Time

A letter was received by thu public
service commission this morning from
A. @, Spencer, general attorney for the
Northern Pacific railroad system, stat
ing that the railroad lines Of Oregon
after a conference, decided to withdraw
their request of 15 per cent horizontal
increase in intrastate freight rates
The withdrawal was made after con
ference between Attorney Spencer and
Commissioner Miller.
The letter states that in view of the
fact that the Interstate Commerce com,
mission has continued the application
Of the carriers for a horizontal increase
Of Is per cent in rates until October 2S
for the purpose of observing the. effect
of increased cost on carriers earnings
lit was thought unwise to hold an imme
diate hearing on the carriers applica
tion for similar increase in intra-
state traffic.
The railroads propose to file a supple.
ment cancelling various supplemental
tariffs in various suspension orders. The
roads propose to make future applica-
tions. The idaho commission found
that the local roads in that state were
in need Of an immediate increase. The
following are the roads that signed the
withdrawal:
The Spokane, Portland & Seattle rail
road, the Oregon Electric, the United
Railways, the Pacific & Eastern, tn,

location was made possible by conces.

Marguerite Clark
at the Oregon

Lies, like bricks, must be piled one
upon the other in order to construct
any semblance of an edifice of truth.
One single lie, like a single brick, is
comparatively useless, except for the
purpose of hurling it at someone else.
But even then the chances are that
more will have to follow unless the aim
was exceptional.
Upon this very sound philosophy of
life there is built a screamingly funny
motion picture farce entitled Miss
George Washington in which delight
full little Marguerite Clark stars for
the first time since the renewal Of her
contract with the Famous Players Film
company to continue in its productions
on the Paramount program. 1t is the
featured attraction at the Oregon the
ater Sunday and Monday.
| Forsaking all semblance of truth for
the nonce, Miss Clark becomes the ally
of deception, as the result of telling
one untruth in order TO deceive the
head of the private school in which she
| is a pupil. The richly humorous side of
the situation is the fact that she is
so innocent in her appearance that she
has deceived her mother and others in
to believing that she has never uttered
SYLLABLE of fiction since the day she
was born. AS result of this erroneous
impression, she is presented with a
Truth medal. But her immediate friends
who know her ability-have dubbed
her "Miss George Washington" and
they concede to her without a dissent
ing voice the all around fibbing cham
pionship of the world. 1t might be said
in extenuation of the girls propensity
for deception that her father is dip
lomat and that she comes honestly by
hpr ability
