TIIE MORNING OHEG ONIAN, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 21, 1920 15 PORTLAND URGED TO WATCH ORIENT J. J. Gorman, Admiral Line Agent, Discusses Trade. CHAMBER'S IDEA LAUDED TTse of Influence on Big Importers In Kast l'i Declared to Be Step in Right Direction. The port of Portland must be boosted both west and east and es pecially east if this city is to have its fair share of the business between the United States and the orient. Thia Is the message of J. J. Gor man, general oriental agent of the Admiral line, who returned to this country last month after a year and a half in the far east, and who Is leaving again next month for his headquarters in Shanghai. He was Been yesterday in the local office of the Pacific Steamship company, where he was conferring with Frank O'Con nor, Portland agent of the company. "The company is doinp all it can to encourage commerce with the orient," he said, "because It is to the interest of the company to do so. We are also exerting efforts to have a fair por tion of the freight from the orient routed to Portland, but the bulk of the work must be done by the port. Chamber's Idea Landed. "Tour Chamber of Commerce is at tacking: the problem in exactly the right manner by bringing influence to bear on the big importers in the eastern states. They must be con vinced that their commodities can be handled better or faster or more cheaply through Portland before they w ill order their Imports transshipped here. "Three large cargoes from the orient have now been discharged by Admiral line steamers at Portland and the word has gone out through the east that their handling here was satis factory. This information must be dis seminated to all the large importers of oriental products and they must be educated into ordering their ship ments through Portland to avoid the congestion that exists at San Fran cisco and Seattle. All of this will take time, but the business is coming, and Portland will get her share if she goes after it. The prospects are bright for a great increase in the trade be tween this port and the orient." Freight Held Sufficient. The matter of cargoes from Port land and other Pacific coast ports to the orient, said Air. Gorman, has taken care of itnelf. There Is now enough freight offering here to keep all five of the vessels in the Port land-oriental Una busy constantly. The only difficulty, he eaid, is in obtaining return cargoes. Though the exchange rate is now against Amer lean buyers In China, there is no ob stacle to American buying in Japan, the Philippines or the Malay states. A new schedule of the Portland trans-Pacific service of the Pacific Steamship company was issued yester day, show ing a sailing from Portland every 23 days and giving also the dates for he arrival and departure of vessels at Yokohama. Kobe, Shang hai, Hongkong and Manila. The five vessels named in the new schedule as the Portland operated fleet are the Montague, Abercos, Paw lot, Waban and Coaxet. Of these, the Abercos is now loading at the St. Johns terminal, working day and night In an effort to adhere to the schedule and sail at daylight Fri day. The Pawlet. which is scheduled for the next sailing, February 15, was launched yesterday by the G. M Stanilifer Construction corporation The three other vessels of the line are now in oriental waters. ran May 1 last, will double Its regular ervice in the route Immediately. Four vessels hereafter will operate on schedule in the run. Heretofore the company has operated only two vessels on resular schedule.

ABERDEEN, Wash., Jan. 20. (Special.) The steamer Daisy last night caused the breakage of the city's newly-laid water main to South Aberdeen, when she struck a dolphin at the Oregon-Washington rail road bridge under which the pipe runs. The Daisy working down stream, stern on, passed safely through the west bridge but could not make the O.-W. B. N. draw and tied up at the Donovan dock just above the bridge. The tug Forester then took her in tow and the steamer made the bridge with the tug's assistance, but cal culations were enough amiss so that the steamer smashed against the dolphin at the end of the nier. wrenching It to one side and breaking the wster pipe. Water for the south side was immeaiaieiy mrwu through the emergency main which crosses t the m-est bridge. The steamer Bee arrived at 10 o'clock this morning and will load at the Wilson mill. This is the first visit of the Bee here in several months.

Approximately J50.000 vu paid for S200 pieces of piling, lying at San Francisco, which the Foundation com pany yesterday purchased from the supply and sales division of the emer gency fleet corporation, according to a message from J. Q. Brown. In charge of the government's sales at San Francisco. The material is to be used in connection with the construction of a large pier for the Standard Oil company for which the Foundation company has a contract. The piling originally came from the Columbia river district and was intended for the Liberty shipyard at Alameda, which was planned by the government to rush steel ships. The yard was not completed because it had not at tained more than a 50 per cent stage at the time cancellation orders came along. Activities in the entire coast region will no doubt be accentuated shortly, as a consequence of the return from Philadelphia, New York and Washing ton of C. O. Toakum, general man ager of the western district, who Is due at San Francisco this week. J. W. Wood, assistant to Mr. Toakum in charge of the material section and Jay S.

MARSHFIELD, Or., Jan. 20. (Spe cial.) Coos Bay authorities are con sidering the logical locations for the port docks and warehouses which have been proposed for the accom modation of domestic and foreign shipments. There are many ideas re garding the policies that should be pursued by the port . commissioners. There is a growing sentiment that the improvements should be made upon an are"a with plenty of room for ad ditions and adjacent to property avail able for factory sites. There is practically only one site that would answer this requirement. the Pony inlet district, just west of North Bend, where there is a tidal area a mile wide in places and capable of being made a most advantageous building site. One drawback to this plan is that it would require a vast amount of dredging to create a chan nel deep enough to handle the ship ping anti wide enough for maneuver ing vessels. On the other hand, there is the advantage of being several miles nearer the ocean. Other sites are on the interior of the bay, between the city of Marsh field and Old North Bend, but the space necessary for a possible heavy shipping future is found in only one or two offerings, and nowhere a the opportunities so favorable as on Pony inlet. VESSELS CARRV OCT BOILERS E. S. Loop and Jolian Poulsen Go North and South.

Russell Hawkins has bought the sawmill at Garibaldi, Tillamook coun ty, owned by the Cummings-Moberly LumMr company of New Orleans. Mr. Hawkins purchased all the property the Louisiana concern had in Oregon for 1250.000. The deal was closed several wee'ks ago. This plant was never operated, for about the time it was to start the manager died and it has remained idle. Some alterations will be made by Mr. Hawkins. To accommodate the men who will work at the mill it will be necessary to build about 100 nouses, making' Garibaldi Quite town. Bier things are pending in the vicinity of Tillamook bay, Mr. Hawk ins, who is a member of the port commission, stated. The Coati Lumber company has purchased the sawmill at Hobsonville for $275,000 and will make a num ber of improvements. Mr. Hawkins has bought 22 donkey engines, and these will be placed in the woods in trie spring to ret out logs. A loggincr road is now beinc built into the Whitney Lumber company's noiaings and the donkeys will ko In over this line, which is being con structed as carefully as a standard I railroad.

A peculiar situation prevails t Gardiner and Reedsport, where four sawmills are running- on full shift and turning out sreat quanti ties of spruce and fir lumber. Aitnougn tne uardlner Mill com pany, in former years shipped its output by water, a lumber cargo has not gone over the Umpqua bar since the new activity started at Reedsport and Gardiner, nearly two years afro. The conditions which prevent water snipinents would seem, on the face of things, to be imaginarj-, as a re cent survey of the Umpqua bar showed there was a depth at low water of 25 feet, whereas, when the Gardiner Mill company was operating I Clever Programme Put Through by the steam schooner ban trabriei and some sailing vessels, there wa: depth of but 14 feet and sometimes IT feet. One cause for the lack of water ship ments is the shortage of vessels ap plicable to navigating that port, and the second is the main obstacle. The hannel in the inner harbor is hoaled near an Island where the hannel is divided, so that vessels ould not pass unless the channel was eepened by dredging.. The United States government is constructing a large bucket dredge for work on the Coquille river and such other places in this engineering district as need work. Hamburg-Mexican Line Opened. JUAREZ.

President Douglas announced the appointment of A. C. Cammade as chairman of the membership commit tee, and of Vernon Motschenbacher as chairman of the programme com mittee for the next quarter.
