NEW DIRECTORS NAMED XMuiis Outlined to Oppose Move to XMuce Columbia River Vnder Outside loiiiination. Creation of a new foreign trade dtparUnent of the Portland Chamber of Commerce was announced yester day by H. B. Van Duzer, president of the chamber. This new department vill be on a parallel with the indus trial, advertising and other major de parement of the chamber and will act upon, all matters of foreign and domestic water-borne commerce.. Heretofore this work has beeri di vided between the shipping and navi gation committees of the chamber. Under the new plan, both of thesa committees are to be subsidiary to the foreign trado department. lirector Are Appointed. Directors of the new department were appointed in accordance with a recent older of the board of directors of the Chamber of Commerce. Those selected for this department are Peter Kerr, chairman; J. D. Hunt. Max H. Houser, John Latta, Bert C. Ball, C. E. Dant and Nathan Strauss. Mr. Van Iuier, as president of the chamber, will be ex-officio a director of the department. The directors will hold their first meeting at 1:30 o'clock to morrow afternoon. One of the first tasks confronting the foreign trade department will be the campaign to be conducted by the Chamber of Commerce against the creation of a new shiDPin board dis trict to embrace Puget sound and the Columbia river, with headquar ters at Seattle. Portland Shipper United. In regard to the attitude of the Chamber of Commerce toward the proposed district, Mr. Van Duzer said: "Portland shipping Interests are ap parently of one mind concerning the placing of this port under the juris diction of Seattle through the- divi sion of operations of the United States shipping board. They feel that busi ness out of this port and the Columbia river has developed to such an extent that this district is entitled to direct connection with thet Washington headquarters of the shipping board. They appreciate that our greatest comnetitor is the Puget sound dis trict aid they are not willing pas sively to submit to the domination of this port by Puget sound Interests. Information Is Denied. "We are contending here that the Columbia river and Portland have during the past year used an amount of shipping board tonnage equal to or greater than the amount used on Puget sound. A representative of the Portland Chamber of Commerce went to Seattle to obtain first-hand infor mation on the subject and was re fused any facts both by representa tives of the shipping board and by the collector of customs at Seattle. "When the government's business is not publio business and becomes simply community business, as it has on Puget sound, it is not fair to ex pect us to put our shipping future into their safekeeping."

FISH INDUSTRY NEAR RUIN, LARSON WnlS Small Salmon Slaughtered Deputy Warden Charges. SEINES DESTROY FEED Packers Are Aceptlng Any Size When 2 0 Inches Is Limit by Law Is Also Complaint. is bound for Melbourne, Australia, with a cargo of lumber from Portland and Prescott. ASTORIA, Or., July 20. (Special.) "Thousands jt email fish are being slaughtered at the mouth of the riv er," remarked Deputy Fish Warden John Larson today, "and unless the practice is stopped by the enforce ment of strinsent regulations, many years will not elapse before the great fishing; industry of the Columbia river will be ruined. "There are more than 100 purse seines operating; off the mouth of the river, and as one result of practices followed by the operators of this class of gear the shore at North Beach is literally lined with the bodies of vast numbers of young Balmon which have been ruthlessly killed. Of course, these seines catch all kinds of fish, both large and small, and the oper ators, instead of releasing the small fish uninjured, either gaff them or haul them on the decks ot their ves sels and then throw them overboard dead. This is a needless destruction of the most important food fish on the Pacific coast, which the state is spending thousands of dollars each year to propagate, as the little fish are being slain long before they have a chance to develop and become of commercial value. Feed Grounds Destroyed. "Another Injury which these purse seines are doing is to destroy the nat ural feeding grounds of the young salmon off the mouth of the river. Some of these seines are 150 feet deep and their heavy lead lines scrape tha bottom of the sea, tearing out the vegetable growths, which are teeming with bugs and atoms upon which the small salmon feed. Nature has pro vided these feeding grounds for the salmon, and we are allowing them to be destroyed. The purse seiners are not the only ones responsible for this destruction of small fish. Some of the packers are at fault by encouraging the prac tice. For Instance, last year the pack ers made an agreement to take no fish under 20 inches in length, and the legislature at its recent session enacted a law fixing the limit of 20 inches in length on fish which can be accepted at any packing plant. That limit is far . too low, and several packers, realizing that fact, have agreed to accept no salmon weighing less than eight pounds each. Any SIxe Accepted. "Others, however, are receiving: fish of almost any size. In fact, one packer told me recently that he was running his cannery and Jie would accept any fish that he wished. As an Instance of the kind of salmon that is being delivered at that plant, one delivery there a few days ago Includ ed a box which contained 200 fish. when customarily from six to eight fish will fill a box. - "I cannot arrest a man unless he accepts fish under 20 Inches in length. .Now a fish that size will weigh only four or five pounds, whereas the state law should prohibit the delivery of salmon weighing under ten pounds each. If we had such a law and could place some strict regulations on the operations of the purse seiners there might be a chance of checking this ruthless destruction of the small salmon. FOREIGNER TO GET LICENSE Attorney-General Says Application for Papers Sufficient. SALEM. Or., July 20. (Special.) Attorney General Brown, in an opinion given today, advised Carl D. Shoe maker', executive secretary of the state fish commission -that he would be warranted in issuing a gillnet li cense to C. F. Helgren. who desires to operate on the Coquille river in Coos county. Mr. Helgren. in his application for a license, said that he acquired citizen ship papers while residing in San Francisco a number of years ago but that they were burned in the fire and earthquake which subsequently de stroyed a part of that city. Since that time, he declared, he had been unable to submit proof that he had taken out his citizenship papers. Mr. Helgren again has applied for citizenship, which, in the opinion of the attorney general, indicates that he is desirous of complying with the laws and is not attempting to evade his responsibility as a citizen. YARDS "WILL REVERT TO CITY HISTORY SHIP CHARTERED A VANCE IS BtJRNED, SUNK, RAISED, REPAIRED DELIVERED Vancouver Gets Property or G. M. Standlfer Corporation. VANCOUVER, Wah., July 20. (Special.) The wooden shipyard of the G. M. Standifer Construction cor poration, built on the public levee on the Columbia river, just below the Columbia river interstate bridge, is soon to revert to the city of Vancou ver, as the company has no further use for the property. The city council was yesterday notified by the company that it would not renew the insurance on the prop erty when the policies expire within a short time. It was said that the main platform cost 112,000, the building ways. $101,500; launching ways, $57,000; office, $3000 and the railroad tracks, $4000. This totals about $307,000, but no depreciation was estimated. It has been estimated that the plant is worth approximately $200,000, but it was not known then that it had cost $307,000. MACKEREL HC ENOR310CS Vessel, Scheduled to Carry Lumber to Cuba, Will Sail Under Norwegian Hag. The motorship Avance, built by the Columbia engineering works. urned, sunk, raised and repaired in the local harbor, has been chartered y Dant & Russeii to carry lumber to Cuba, and is expected to start load ing next week, it was announced yes- erday by C. E. Dant. The Avance is ow at Supple's dock, where the Pa cific Marine Iron works i3 making changes in her engine room, prepara tory to her transfer from American to Norwegian registry. Without leaving Portland harbor the motorship Avance has acquired more history than is the lot of some vessels in their entire career. She was built for Norwegian interests by he Columbia engineering works. which bocame involved In financial difficulties before the vessel was de livered, and went out of business. As are was lying at mis company a qock last November she caught lire In an unexplained manner, was burned early to the water's edge, and was looded with water and sui.k by the ireboat to prevent her total de struction by the flames. A contract to salvage- the sub merged hull was awarded by recsiv- rs of the Columbia engineering works to William Cornfoot and Rob- rt Mcintosh, and this work has just been finished. She was offered for ale at public auction, which was called off before it took place. A rial trip, scheduled for two weeks ago, sot Id not be performed because of a $10,000 libel for attorneys' fees. It is now understood that the orier- Inal interests for which she was built have taken her over, assumed all in debtedness of the vessel, and arc to operate her under the Norwegian flag.

The Rotary code of ethics in busi ness, which Mayor Baker urged all business men to accept as their standard, was read by Charles K. Cochran, district governor of Rotary. This code consisted essentially of a broad application of the golden rule In business, with no distinction be tween Rotary members and others in business, and founded upon the prin ciple that "all men were entitled to equal opportunities in the natural re sources of this planet." Kates Snedecor, International presi dent, declared that the people of Portland are trained in leadership, and that a new day had dawned in the history of the world. At first, he declared, we had an aristocracy of blood, followed by that of wealth: now we have . an "aristocracy of service." Senator Chamberlain spoke briefly, declaring Oregon was to be congrat ulated on tho selection of Snedecor as international president. Over 400 members of various civic and commercial clubs were present. Chamberlain to Tour State. Every town in Oregon of conse quence will be visited by Senator Chamberlain, during the summer. The senator wili begin his tour the first week in Aiyrust, entering Curry coun ty by way oT Crescent City, and work ing his way up the coast. By degrees he will swing inland and eventually will visit all the harbors and irriga tion projects in the state. The trip, for the most part, will be made by automobile. The object of the tour is to enable the senator to gather first hand information, as this is the first time he has had an opportunity to make an extensive .trip for several years.
