T. l.. Perkins Announces
for City Commissioners

In making my announcement
as a candidate for City Commis.
sioner at the coming election to
be held Nov. 2, 1920, ! feel that
it is incumbent upon me to re.
view my past record as a public
official which | believe the pub
lie should he familiar with at
this time. Having served in the
18th and 18th sessions Of the
Oregon State Legislature as
State Senator from this district,
| was chairman of the Ways and
Means committee Of the thir-
teenth session and assisted in
putting over the first Good Roads
| law. the County Bonding act
which gave us the Columbia
Highway, the Enabling Act that
put the bridge across the Col.
umbia River. the Compensation
Act, the Widows Pension Act
and assisted in creating the COM
mission which regulated the
working hours of women. the
Tenure of Office of Teachers Act.
and in the fifteenth session | was
chairman Of Assessment and
Taxation, in which session ! as.
sisted in passing the present
Tax Law, with the divided pay
ments. In 1913 | was elected
to the office of City Commission.
er to fill the uneypired term of
Mayor Baker, and during which
term | served as Commissioner
of Finance. During my service
with the city | was instrumental
in systematizing the affairs in
each bureau and placing compe-
tent men in charge; this result.
ed in saving quite a considerable
sum of money TO the taxpayers.
believe that the charter
should be amended. as the city
has outgrown it and il has pass
ed its usefulness. so far as it
pertains to the financial affairs.
One of the greatest problems
which the City Commission will
be called upon TO assist in solv.
ing in the immediate future is
that of tourist travel. There
should be established in Portland
a high class information bureau
where information of all kinds !
can be obtained by the tourist. !
We should also have a suitable |
parking and camping sites where
the motorists can have wood, wa
ter. lights and comfort stations.
With this innovation and which |
is at the present time absolutely
necessary-Portland could be
made the greatest tourist termi-
nal on the Pacific coast. and
would be one Of Portland's best
assets. | have been a resident
of Portland for 80 years, n tax
payer. a stakeholder in one of
the city's growing industries and
have practiced my profession for
the last 20 years. Ii am elect
ed ! will conduct the Office on
strictly business lines economy
and efficiency and courteous

lines. II. l.. Perkins.
