TITE MORNING- OREGOXIAX. WEDNESDAY, MAY ..3... 19J1. .14 PORTLAND IS BEST City" Held in High Esteem by Whole Country. ADVANTAGES ARE SEEN Conjwrration Vln nprt. Water lipvrl I Appreciated and Vnde Trloped Country Is Act, Says lr. Kcktiart. After spending two month examln nr conditions of trade In the Eastern cltls. vlth a lew of comparing; Port land method with those of New York .nd Chlcaao. A. K. Erkh.rdt. csshler of the Meier Frank Comp.ny.returnea yesterday, convinced that Portland is the. most promising city In the whole rountry. He Tlslted San Francisco. Ios nele. St. I.ouls. Chicago. Philadel phia and New Tork. He made a thorough examination of the financial cor.dlt.on. as well as trade methods. -I found ererywhere I went. saia Mr. Frkhardt. "that Portland was held In hltfb esteem. Pankers. where I talked with them, believed tliat Port land was one of the comlnr cities of the country. I remember meeting two prominent bankers In New York City. Ther wanted to know all they could of Portland. Its possibilities and Its re aourres. In each case I found their opinion of the city was based upon the Idea that, first. Portland Is a very rnnservatire town that Idea prevailed everywhere: second, that it is a wai-r-lerel town, ami that meant there w:is no rrade to carry the Rood over: and third that It had the largest unci veloped area bark of It of any city In the United States. These three thlnM made them believe that the city had a sjreat future. "All department stores In the coun try that are up-to-date have offices In rw Tork for the purchase of goods, iiuyers are there for all houses and the opportunities are the same for all. It makes the Impression strons; that the country Is about the same wherever you trn. However, it certainly Kave me unqualified pleasure to find that Port land is Just as good as New Tork when It come to the sale and delivery of jtoods. -One thing- I noticed when East was that times are recarded as "slark." There wa not the hustle and bustle I found on prevlou visits, and It was e.ild that It was due to the possible disturbance of the tariff schedules, the pen. line decisions of the Supreme Court and the comlns; Presidential election. All three thtnics have their erfect on the iceneral money market. The banks never had so much money on hand, but it sems that It Is not belnar lent to any considerable extent for development work."
