SOX O.N JOKKST PATItOL (es-lti-vlew Washington liurcwu.) WASHINGTON April 25 A flnt.sh fight to cither amend or repeal the LaFollette seaman act so that Amer ican shipping can compete with the merchant marine fleet of the world will be one of the development!! of the present congress. Its abolition or modification so that the cost of oper ating American ships will not be any grealer than that of foreign com petitors means much to the shipping of the Pacific coast and the ports of Los Angeles, San Francisco. Seattle and Portland. Already the tying up of scores of shipping board vessels because of British and Japanese com petition, due to low rates and low cost of operation has delayed if not Impaired the development of the U. 8. merchant marine, particularly on the Pacific coast. While Andrew Fur seuth is coming on from San Francis co to lead the fight to keep the La Follette biN on the statute books In its present form, the head of the sea men's union has before him the fight of his life. Close observers say that there Is every probability of a modi fication at least, of the law which now mnkes the operation of the mer chant ships of the United States al most Impossible with scant cargoes available and a great differential in favor of foreign owned and operated ships. Strange to say. this fight does not start on either the Atlantic, Gulf or Pacific coast, but comes from the Great Lakes, where shipping Inter ests have always Insisted that the law was never meant to operate, A number of embryonic attempts have been made by the owners and oper ators of lake vessels to cnange these laws, hut this time the whole lake country Is In the collar fighting for relief. It came about In this way. Some months ago the great De troit and Cleveland Navigation com pany, which for years has operated steamers to Mackinac Island, an nounced that this service would be abandoned this summer. Following on the announcement now comes anoth er announcement from all other of the small lines which were fed by the D. and C. boats, that they have also abnndoned their lines. This now leaves the Mackinac and northern rexorts without service and many of the cities of northern Michigan face a real disaster with the summer, tourist and resort traffic cut off. More than -forty of the Chambers of Commerce of Michigan held a joint indignation meeting , In Detroit the other day and the representatives are now here ready to start the war to a finish on the I.aJollette law. which they contend Is the real cause of the suspension of nil steamship service to the resorts. This Is but the start ing point aftd shipping men and the merchants of the middle west are go ing to back up the proposition to say nothing of the ship owners of the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific coasts. They contend that there Is no chance for American shipping lo compete with the merchant fleet of the world as long as the law remains for the differential forced against the Amer ican ships Is too great for any cor poration to overcome. In congress in both houses there Is a growing sentiment that the law Is both expensive, hr.rmful and without economic justification. Some Will Johns this morning received a h-licr from his son Haven Johns, of the 91st Aero Squadron, located at Sacramento, saying that he, to gether with a number of othe avia tors, will leave S:tcrninento on May 15th. to take up the forest patrol work In this state, lie will be located at Eugene, and expects to stop In this city on his way north for a short vlrlt with his father. z ...

PREDICTS LA KG K ERl'IT CROP Fred Winston, one of the pioneer fruit men of the Winston district made a tour of the orchards in his vicinity Sunday. He visited the Geo. Bradburn and Harding Bartlett pear orchards and found existing condi tions above the average. He is of the opinion that the pear crop is assur ed and out of danger. While the Italian and silver prunes are loaded and the fruit la Betting well, the tree can stand a consider able drop and still have a record crop. Apples, especially Spitzenbergs and Xewtowns, are one mass of bloom, hut are hardly far enough advanced to make a safe estimate, however, indications point to a bumper crop. Mr. Winston Insists (hat the pros pects for a big fruit crop have never been better in the past ten year. Soil conditions, ho maintains, are unusually favorable this season for grain and fruit.
