the country's financiers, as far as the
domestic situation is concerned, he
said, pointing out that the ultimate
solution is still an enigma.
At the same time, he declared.
there is no danger of a setback. In
creased building activity, making a
market for basic materials, and for
labor, wil lbe the next step in im
provement of conditions generally.
No where in the cities he visited,
Wright says, was greater building
activity in evidence than is found in
Oregon City and Portland.
Speaking of the financial situation
over the country, Wright pointed out
that money is cheaper now than it
has been at any time since 1916.
"Coramercial paper," he said, "is de
manding only about four per cent.
There is an adequate supply of capi
tal for long and short term loans and
more mony available for investment
than there haS been for several years.
Municipal and corporation bonds are
being sold at considerably smaller in
terest rates than was possible ayear
ago."
The convention which Wright at
tended at New York was'the largest
in the history of the association.
Preparations for 7,000 delegates were
made, whereas. 12,000 attended. Dis
cussion of the foreign credits situa
tion found no solution, he explained.
It resulted only in the assessment of
the actual conditions. Germany, the
convention was told, is conducting
business on paper marks of practical
ly no worth, and is not able to pay
its indemnities. 'France and Italy
cannot pay until Germany does' The

EXTENSION f TIME IS
GIVEN TO CARVER LINE
Difficulties of Operation Are
-Told to Portland Council;
Requirements noa Rushed.
PORTLAND, Nov. -10. A . story o
operation of a railroad with smal
capital, and no end of trials and per
plexing problems, was given to the
city council yesterday 'by Stephen
Carver, president, general manager
conductor and engineer of the Port
land & Oregon City line.
The recital prompted the council to
delay action on the proposed revoca
tion of the franchise held by this road
within the city limits, for failure to
repair street crossings. One of the
heavy stockholders In the road lives
in Montana and Mr. Carver asked
that action be delayed until this man
could Teach Portland and discuss the
situation with the city council.
Mr. Carver told the council that -bd
had done everything .possible to keep
his little line, which operates a
motorcar between East Portland and
Carver, in Clackamas county, and
that for a time the road was paying
its way. '
Then came an automobile bus, run
ning on a route already covered by
the railroad, and profits ceased.
"From that time I nave been trying
my best to keep the road going," said
Mr. Carver. "I even let out my men
and began operating the car myself
It means long hours and hard work
on my part, with little or no chance
for any profits, but I cant stop and
leave the people who depend on my
road without facilities. I think the
city should be as liberal as possible
in this matter and give me a chance
to make good."
