THE MORXIXG OREGOXIAX, FRIDAY, HAT 14, 1920 10 OREGON VESSELS TO TRANSPORT COAL Trans-Atlantic Fleet Includes 31 Vessels. ENTIRE FLOTILLA WOODEN Allocation Take a of Craft In; Idle to Indicate Boats StUl Profitable. Ten TooAen vessels built it the Oregon district tor ihe iimergencjr Fleet corporation are included in a list of 31 such vessels allocated for the trans-Atlantic coal trade received here yesterday from Washington. The vessels will all carry coal from New York or other Atlantic coast ports to Europe. The allocation of a fleet of this size, for the transportation of coal is believed to be directly due to the termination May 1 of governmental control over the exportation of coal. The vessels built in this district In cluded In the list are the steamers Benzonia, Barrington, Kineo, Munra, Nasnota. Belding. 1'ort Bill, Wanzu, Mahanna and Mattapan. Seven wood en steamers built on Puget sound are included in the list. They are the Clodia, Yakima. Bonneterre, Co conino, Bottineau, Blakely and Bos worth. The steamers Brookside, Fas sett and Brookwood, built at Grays Harbor, the Marshf ield built at Coos Bay and the Mono, built in Califor nia, are also included among the 31 coal carriers. Many of the wooden steamers listed for the coal trade have been lying idle in Atlantic ports ever since they completed their first voyages out of the Columbia river and Puget sound with cargoes of lumber or ties for the Atlantic coast. The announcement that those ships are again to be placed in service is taken by local shipping men as an indication that in the eyes of the government at least the wooden emergency ship has not passed Its day of usefulness and still can he op erated at a profit. The entire fleet of 31 vessels will aggregate 100. 000 dead weight tons. They are all of the emer gency fleet type of which 118 were built in the Oregon district. Pacific Coast Shipping Xotes.

Retention of Ships by Govern ment Forced by Act, Asserts Xew Wersey Speaker. WASHINGTON, May 13. The mer chant marine bill as amended by the senate commerce committee was taken up by the senate today and was at tacked by Senator Edge, republican. New Jersey as 'inelastic" and "copper-riveted.'' Senator Edgrs said that. Instead -ot bringing- about private ownership-of the American merchant marine, the bill forced the government to retain possession, because it would be impossible for the shipping board to sell ships under the restrictions imposed. "I do not want the ships uselessly sacrificed, but I do want' the ships sold," said the senator. "I do not want the government to continue admin istering this business any longer than is absolutely essential because I am convinced that every additional day that it does there will be that much greater deficit charged against the taxpayers of the country and the as sets in the shape of ships owned by the government will naturally depre ciate more and more;. "Either we must pass legislation to give every opportunity to carry out the direction of this bill, or we must pass legislation providing for . con tinued government ownership and ad ministration and not do it by this in direct method. "If we do not positively help Amor- icaji shipping by subsidies or subven tions at least do not let us nanaicap it by imposing onerous prices for ves sels which it wants and needs and which we must dispose of." Without debate the senate tenta tively adopted the committee amend ment providing for reduced rail freight rates on exports and imports, providing they are transported to or from this country in American ships. Advocates of the provision said it was similar to plans used by Germany and Japan in building up their merchant marines. Another committee amendment ex empting marine insurance pools from the provisions of the anti-trust acts was also accepted without discussion and without a record vote.

Though the Same conditions prevail On the dock as at the time of the loading of the steamer Eelbeck, which was performed by non-union labor when union men refused the work, the union 'authorized its mem bers to load the West Katan to show the good faith of the union and its willingness to come to !an agreement with the ship and dock operators. J. W. Murphy, business agent of the longshoremen's union, stated yester day that the union authorized its members to load the West Katan merely to get the ship off its hands and that the loading of this vessel in dicated nothing as to tho future policy of the union in loading grain on other vessels. The entire disagreement, which is of many months' standing, centers about the fact that pon-union men are" employed as truckers on certain of the grain docks, and that the union desires the men performing this work to be hired through the union hall.
