RESOLUTIONS NOT BIASED
Thousands of Messages to Four in on
Eastern Firms Asking Help In
Crisis Facing Appropriations.
Senators' "Demand" Asked.
Resolutions to be sent the Senators
and Representative of tbe Pacific Coast
states In Congress, the President of
the Senate and the Speaker of the
House, urging upon them the necessity
of securing the passage of the pend
ing rivers and harbors bill, were aoopt
ed- unanimously last night at a mass
meeting held In the Chamber of com
inerce rooms, attended by representa
tives of Northwest communities that
would be affected by the fauure or
bill to uass.
The officers of the Portland Chamber
of Commerce were instructed further
to send telegrams to tbe leading com
mercial chambers In the United States.
particularly In those communities
mentioned in tne general Dili, icijucoi
ins their co-operation, and to urge
upon the business men of Portland to
send dispatches to Eastern manufac
turing bouses from whom they make
purchases, asking, as personal favors,
that they communicate with their Rep
resentatives in the National Legisla
ture, requesting their support of the
general bill.
Delegate Idea Suggested.
The suggestion that J- N. Teal be
sent to Washington, D. -C-. to do per
sunal work tor the bill on the iioor ot
Congress met with favor. Mr. Teal,
however, said last night that be would
not be able to go.
The general resolution was framed
by a committee composed of J. N. Teal,
of Portland, chairman: Hugh McLain.
of ilarshfleld; J. T. Hinkle, of Hermis
ton; Wallace Struble. of Astoria, and
A- H. Covers, of Portland.
Resolutions Are Adopted.
Toe text of this resolution follows:
"i-tesolved. That the commercial or
ganisations representing all interests
and evtry part of the Northwest, in
convention assembled, urge upon the
Senators and Representatives repre
senting these states to use every hon
orable means to pass tbe pending
rivers and harbors bill.
"Resolved turther, that the failure to
pass this bill at this session of Con
gress will be in a very real sense a
public calamity and retard tbe develop
ment of this entire Pacilic Coast ami
Columbia River Basin section, as well
as occasion direct loss to the Govern
ment by reason of stoppage of work
and necessary deterioration of plant
and work already done.
"Resolved further, that we believe
our Representatives are justified and
we urg'e them to refuse to adjourn
Congress until a vote on the rivers and
harbors bill, as a whole, is taken.
Contlnaaace Held Vital. .
"Resolved further, that by reason of
the fact that the Port of Portland. Port
of Astoria and the Port ot Coos Bay
have this year contributed directly
large sums to aid in work now in
proijress at tne mouth of the Colum
bia and at Coos Bay, we feel good
taith on tne part of the general Gov
ernment requires it to continue the
work which has thus been maintained
by money raised by taxation by our
local communities.
. . "Resolved, That a copy of these res
olutions be sent to the Senators and
Representatives of all Pacific Coast
states and Idaho, Montana and Ne
vada." The motion instructing t.ie chamber
to dispatch a personal representative
to Washington, D. C, to work In the
interests of the bill was passed witn
only three or four negative votes.
On the motion of K. G. Crawford,
vice-president of the Lunibermens Na
tional Bank, the meeting decided unan
imously to send telegrams to the lead
ing commercial bodies of the country,
partieularly in those sections affected
by the bill, urging upon them the need
or indorsing the entire appropriation.
A Project Especially Urged.
Significant of the spirit of the meet
ing was the insistence of the Portland
representatives, led by Mr. Teal, that
no especial stress should be placed on
the Importance of early completion of
the work at the mouth of tbe Colum
bia River. '
"These resolutions should cover the
Iwholo Northwest." said Mr. Teal, and
he was roundly cheered as he did so.
Xast night's meeting was representa
tive of virtually every port In Oregon,
the whole Columbia River basin from
the river's mouth to Lewiston, Idaho,
and many inland Oregon towns that
would only be -affected indirectly by a
shutdown tn ail river and harbor de
velopment. The question that the
meeting was called to discuss, as out
lined by A. H- AvertU, president of
the Portland Chamber of Commerce,
-who presided, was ways and means of
continuing work on the unfinished
projects under way all over the
Northwest.
Cooa Representative Heard.
Among the out-of-town representa
tives was Hugh McLain, president of
the Marshfleld Commercial Club.
"There is no pork in the $50,000 ap
propriation for the . Coos Bay bar in
the rivers and harbors bill," said Mr.
McLain, after J. N. Teal had gone ex
haustively into the merits of the meas
ure, and the disastrous effect that
Its defeat would have on the North
west. "We have over 800,00 tons of
commerce over a bar for which the
Government has done nothing for 14
years.
"You can't make these resolutions too
strong. Coos Bay is with you, heart
and souL"
Ialaad Delegate Heard.
M. J. Duryea, secretary and manager
f the publicity department of the Eu
gene Commercial Club, said:
"We are an inland city and above
navigation. We are not directly af
fected by any item In the bill, but we
are vitally interested in the develop
ment of our seaports and the improve
ment of our harbors, becaure we are
Interested in the growth of Oregon."
E. R. - Hill, of Tbe Dalles Business
Men's Association, said:
"A mere $525,000 will open the
Columbia River to navigation to the
Snake River and beyond. Of enrse,
we of Tbe Dalles, with Celllo right at
our doors, are most interested in that.
If we don't get this appropriation now
to finish tbe canal the sand blows will
till up the cuts, tn machinery will de
teriorate and it will take another two
or three years . to complete tbe pro
ject." Kenmeirick Sentiment Applauded.
There was applause when M. M.
Moulton. of Kennewlck, Wash., like
wise pledged the support of that sec
tion in the united effort for Congres
sional action.
Wallace Struble. of Astoria, proposed
that tbe Oregon representatives in
Congress be asked to prepare an emer
gency measure taking care of the proj
ects that must be stopped If the rivers
and harbors bill is not passed.
F. C. Harley, representing the ports
of the Columbia, said:
"We stand ready to do our part to
a unit"
J. T. Hinkle, of Hermiston, said: "We
are ready to act in any suggestion made
tonight"
Mr. Teal, in his address, which was
the principal one of the evening, de
nounced the cry of "pork barrel" in
connection with it and asserted that
opposition to the measure was nothing
less than a filibuster. . x
He spoke sharply of the apathy shown
by Portland business men and citizens
generally. "I lalso cannot express my
disappointment at the failure of the
City of Portland to realize the impor
tance of this work," he said. "A meet
ing like this should not be held in
a room like this. It ought to .-be that
D,iiHtnrliim In Portland would be
big enough to hold the people who
come.'
Mr. Teal showed that of a total ap
propriatlon of approximately $53,000,
nnft Ai.4rnn'a tthar including the Co
lumbia River projects, was 6,42,675.

'IEFFICIENCY OF FRENCH DE
CLARED RUSE.
General Kelm Sees in Senator Hum
bert's "Exposure" Plan to Insure
More Aid for Russia.
BERLIN, July 30 Senator Hum
bert's exposure of the unpreparedness
of the French war establishment in the
immediate proximity - to the German
frontier is not taken seriously in this
country. '
General Keim. of the German Army
League, who is an expert on the ins
and outs of sentiment molding, says. In
Der Tag, that the true inwardness of
M. Humbert's revelations is a desire to
pave the way for fresh French mili
tary armaments. The Senator's declara
tion that the republic s army is not
equipped to cross either the Moselle or
the Rhine gives the whole game away.
according to General Keim, and illus
trates clearly that the exposure is a
parliamentary bluff for the purpose of
scaring the country into fresh sacrifice
for military expenditures.
The bluff is timed, says General lieim,
in order to enable President Poincare
to nroceed to Russia with fresh assur
ances for the Czar that France is pre
pared to do still more, when the time
comes, to enable the partners in th6
dual alliance to crush their mutual Ger
man foe.
General Keim asserts that Instead or
being numerically inferior to the Ger
man army at the present moment
France, with 900,000 troops under arms,
is vastly superior. Her artillery also
is in no respect less effective than Ger
many's in one or two derictlons It. is
even superior.
An incident throwing characteristic
light on the unerring thoroughness of
the French Intelligence service is being
told. A German frontier cavalry regi
ment near Metz was recently alarmed
early in the morning and was ordered
to carry out a makebelieve war maneu
ver consisting in occupying a certain
strategic point on the adjacent fron
tier, s .
Th regiment executed the order wun
brilliant dash and with the greatest
punctuality, but the officers were as
tnniahvl tn find, as they approached the
spot, that a full regiment of French
cavalry was also riding toward the
same point from the other side of the
frontier. The two regiments srrived
at the border line practically simulta
neously. Both the German and the
French officers considered it a huge
joke and, dismounting, mingled for
agreeable conversation and exchanged
smokes for a matter of 15 minutes.
The French had prompt knowledge
of the maneuver and met it.

BERLIN, July 30. One of Berlin's
leading economists, writing in the
Tageblatt, challenges President Wil
son's declaration that the existing busl.
ness depression in America is "merely
psychological."
This statement, the writer declares
is not supported by facts. "The truth

sion the new banking law and prose

Mexican troubles and other political
disturbances, has thrown business out
of equilibrium. It Is an actual ana not
a psychological condition that Is
blamable.

States is the falling off of 84,000 in
the number of immigrants from Ger
man ports in the first half of 1914
compared with isu.
