THE MOltNIXG OREGOXIAN, SATURDAY, JULY 11, 1914. 14 BOATS ARE HIT BY TAX AT EVERY TRIP Two Customs Districts Held Expensive of Time and Money to Shippers. CALL FOR AID ISSUED Portland Organizations Urged to Stand Behind Effort to Get Co lumbia Placed In Oregon Division of Ports. A vUroroue campaign is being waged over the question of having the Wash ington shore of the Columbia River de clared wKhln the Oregon Customs Dis trict. Collector of Customs Burke has taken the matter up with Secretary of Com merce Redfield and Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo. although as an of ficial of ths United States Government he refuses to say Just how the matter stands. At its monthly meeting Thursday, the Port of Portland Commission In structed General Manager Talbot to write to Senators Chamberlain ana Lane, requesting them to do all in their power to have an act of Congress passed, declaring the north shore of the Columbia River to be a part of the Oregon district. Farcin Teasels Delayed. Many of the foreign vessels on their way between Astoria ana t-orua.no have been compelled to pay as high as six or seven fees for entering and clear ing front ports on opposite sides of the river. There Is also the added ex pense, when they enter or clear on the Washington side, of having the deputy collector come from Kalama to what ever point the vessel has to clear from, to say nothing of the time wasted In waiting for him. "With reference to the movement bow launched by commercial Interests of Portland In an effort to relieve for eign vessels entering the Columbia River from the handicap Imposed on them by division of the Columbia River into two customs districts, it is Im portant that all business and commer cial interests of the city get behind the effort to extend the customs district of Oregon to Include the north bank of the Columbia throughout the entire length between these two states," said Samuel M. Mears, president of the Port ot Portland Commission, yesterday. Fees Are Expensive. "Every foreign vessel coming Into the river which has occasion to enter a port on the Washington side must enter and clear there at an expense of $1, and when she comes back across the channel to a port on the Oregon side she must go through the same formality of entering and clearing at an additional cost of $4. and as many times as she has occasion to cross the river from a port on one side to a port on the other, this same formality must be observed and this additional penalty Imposed in each case. "Nearly every foreign vessel enter ing the Columbia during the paet fiscal year, as shown by the records of the customs office, has been subjected to this expense and delayed from two to six times in assembling her cargo on both sides of the Columbia. And all this 16 simply for the reason that the channel of the Columbia marks the dividing line between the two customs districts. "The Port of Astoria, at the mouth of the river, affords ample protec tion to the Government for all ship ments entering the river, and after passing that port they should be al lowed uninterrupted progress up the river Indefinitely through a single cus toms district.' DREDGE MAST IS BROKER Chinook, at Astoria Bar, Drags Big Pipe Up River to Hoist. ASTORIA Or., July 10. (Special.) While the dredge Chinook was at work on the bar this morning, the mast to which the gear for hoisting the star board 30-lnch suction pipe was at tached broke. The pipe could not be lifted, so the steamer came to the upper harbor dragging the pipe on the river bo t ton. The suction pipe was raised and fastened to the side of the vessel this afternoon, so that the dredge can be operated with three pumps, while a new mast Is being made and Installed. The dredge probably will resume oper ations Monday. News From Oregon Ports. COOS BAT, Or., July 10. (Special.)

THEATER MEN MAY FIGHT Ordinance, as Xow Approved, Allow Appeal Only to Municipal Court. Objectionable Kinds of Films Cover Wide Range. Portland is to have a new drastic mo tion picture censorship ordinance. If plans definitely arranged yesterday by members of the board of censors, con sisting of Mayor Albee, his secretary. Will H. Warren, and Deputy City At torney Myers, meet with the approval of the City Council. The measure will be put in shape at once and turned over to Mayor Albee, who will guide it through the Council. The ordinance is aimed to do away with undesirable motion pictures of all kinds by prohibiting the exhibition of any picture which has not been viewed and approved by a board of censors of seven members, to be appointed by one of the City Commissioners, probably the Mayor. Specific mention is to be made of the various classes of pictures to be prohibited. The censor board will be given authority to judge as to the fitness of all films and to order their partial or total elimination. The film exhibitor will be given the right of appeal to the Municipal Court, but no further. The ordinance will make it "unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to cause or permit to be exhibited any picture, illustration or delineation of any nude human figure or of any lewd or lascivious act, or of any other mat ter or thing of an obscene, Indecent or immoral nature, or offensive to the moral sense, or (in such manner as to offend public morality and decency) any murder, suicide, robbery, holdup, stabbing, assaulting or beating of any human being." Another provision will be to the ef fect that it shall be unlawful to ex hibit any film that has not been viewed and approved by the censor board. "Any person, firm or corporation." reads the measure, "desiring to exhibit or to rent, sell, lend or give to any other persor, firm or corporation for the purpose of exhibiting, any motion picture film shall notify said board." At the meeting yesterday the framers of the ordinance refused to adhere to a request made in writing by the Mo tion Picture Exhibitors League that the exhibitor be given the right of a trial by jury to determine whether or not a questionable film shall be per mitted to run. It was the opinion of those present that the board of censors constitutes a jury and that an appeal to the Municipal Judge is sufficient. President Winstock, of th'e Exhibi tors' League, announced in his letter that, if the trial by jury is allowed the exhibitors, the league will favor the ordinance. Otherwise, he says, the members of the league will oppose it. It was decided that the board of censors of seven members, who shall serve without compensation, shall be appointed by a member of the City Commission, to whom will be assigned the enforcement of the nev ordinance. The board will have authority to select viewers' to inspect the pictures and provision will be made for sittings of the entire board, when questionable films can be viewed and passed upon. Deputy City Attorney Myers will re draft the ordinance at once and Mayor Albee will introduce it in the Council as soon as possible. All sides then will be given an opportunity to ex press their views for and against the measure. At yesterday's meeting were Mayor Albee, Deputy City Attorney Myers, Mrs. E. B. Colwell, Mrs. A M. Gray, Millie R. Trumbull. Mrs. A. C. NewiU and Will H. Warren. Good Things in Markets ELL, what's new in market?" was asked a retail dealer in fresh fruit yesterday. "The entire stock every day." was the prompt, witty reply. And, really, it looks pretty near the truth. Judging by the volume and variety of fruit products which The cost per cup of both kinds m yHARKBT eOR FOURTH i , JkDJ&R STS PHOH0&S PAeiFie yARSHAUh 1 HOAJB A, 6281 OUR LEADING SATURDAY SPECIAL Lamb Specially priced for this sale at 1 7 c per Pound for Legs Loins and Racks Shoulders, per pound - 10t Breasts, per pound 8 Then there's the Special Bargain Meat Counter, where No. 1 Steer Boiling Beef, finest cuts of Corned Beef, genuine Lamb Shoulders, Fresh Spareribs, etc., etc., are sold at lOc per Pound come forward and are disposed of daily. The newest in fruits to our markets is Florida watermelons, the "glorious armfuls" dark green, with deep red, luscious meat to which our colored brethren are credited with having a particular drawing. One specimen, in a local dealer's, weighed 48 pounds. They retail at 2V4 cents a pound. Peaches are coming to their prime. Southern Oregon has forwarded a su perb consignment, which is bringing 25 cents a dozen. The Dalles also has sent some good clings, which retail at 15 cents, but the average stock is go ing for 10 cents a dozen. Some good California peaches are quoted at from 15 to 25 cents a dozen, or fl to $1.25 a box. Oregon apricots make a very credit able showing indeed.

Cherries are holding out much better than anticipated, the crop being far on to a good average. Some choice Lamberts are quoted at 15 cents, and May Dukes 10 cents a pound or two pounds for a quarter, but large quanti ties are moving briskly at' 5 cents a pound.

Wicksom and Burbank are quoted a notch higher at 50 cents. Italian prunes can be had for 20 cents a basket.

' The newest comer to the vegetable tables is the "lemon cucumber" an other of Burbank's marvels, from Cal ifornia. With the color and shape strongly resembling a lemon, the new cucumber has considerably more of succulence and an absence of bitter ness in taste. Needless to state, it is One Can Have A Good Time At Table without the usual cup of coffee, and feel a whole lot better between meals, too free from that old "off color feeling" biliousness, indigestion, nervousness and heart flutter. The secret is POSTUM instead of coffee. Try the change for a couple of weeks and observe two noticeable things: You won't miss the old beverage, for Postum tastes much like rare old Java, Further, there's the brisk, alert feeling free from the logyness of a lazy liver and disturbed digestion. Thousands of people have made the change and know "There's a Reason"' Postum comes in two forms: , Regular Postum must be well boiled. 15c and 25c packages. Instant Postum needs no boiling. A teasponful of the soluble powder stirred in a cup of hot water makes a deightful beverage instantly. Add cream and sugar to taste. 30c and 50c tins. is about the same. Grocers being viewed and sampled with no small amount of interest. They are offered at three for 10 cents.

Turnips, carrots, beets, green onions all coming to their best are mostly three and four bunches for 5 cents.
