WIN TRADE OF SOUTH.
AMERICA, 15 ADVICE
Henry Albers, Home From
Three Months' Tour, Says
'Rich Field Is Beckoning.
COAST PRODUCTS WANTED
President of Milling Company Urges
Government Alcl In Seeking New
.Market and Suggests Train
ing of Men for Zone.
By properly directed efforts, the Pa
cific Northwest can build up a great
trade -with South American countries.
This is the opinion of Henry Albers,
president of the Albers Bros. Milling
Company, who returned to Portland
yesterday after a three months' tour
through South America.
Mr. Albers visited the principal cities
of Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and
other commercial countries in the
Southern continent and made a close
study of trade possibilities. He is
confident that American manufacturers
and exporters can develop an Immense
commerce with the south, and there
are many lines in which Oregon and
the other Pacific Northwest states can
build up a trade of vast proportions
if they go after the business in. a
proper manner.
"The foreign trade of the Argentine,
Brazil and other countries of South
America runs into immense sums of
money," said Mr. Albers. "This trade
has heretofore been divided between
Germany and England. If the busi
ness men of the United States act
promptly and wisely, this trade can
be captured and will be forever made
ours. The countries south of us stand
willing and ready to buy our manu
factured products.
Many Products Used.
"The imports of the South American
countries consist largely of machinery,
electrical appliances; power tools, cloth
and canned goods. In the Northwest
we have such products as canned
salmon, canned and dried fruit, canned
beans, canned peas and similar com
modities that are in great demand in
the countries of South America and
our lumber trade also can be further
developed.
"After studying conditions in tne big
South American countries, with their
rapidly expanding prospects, one can
not escape the conclusion that the peo
ple of the United States should go after
the trade, although it is not pleasant
to speak of the devastating European
war as benefit for Americans. Pro
viding our young men in the consular
service and those trained by the De
partment of Commerce can open the
vast markets of the South American
republics to the manufactured prod
ucts of this country, it will bring
here enormous profits, and those who
will benefit will be the communities
and the industries that make, the
proper effort.
"We should have, first of all, an
American merchant marine. Next, we
must train the young men of the
country in the consular service and
otherwise to . speak the Spanish
language. When a salesman goes down
there, his first introduction and stand
ing in the business community depends
on his understanding and fluent speak
ing of the native tongue.
Government Aid SuggeMted.
"The Government at Washington
should lead in aiding in the establish
ment of branch banks in Brazil, ttie
Argentine and . elsewhere. The Gov
ernment and the manufacturers should
unite in the effort to develop the im
mensely rich field, now occupied by
only a few American firms such as
Swift & Co., who at their plant near
Buenos Ayres slaughter 1600 head of
cattle and 5000 head -of sheep a day,
and also by Armour and other con
cerns." Mr. Albers was in South America
when the war begaji, and returned to
New York on the British steamer
vestres. The steamer sailed north by
easy stages, putting in at every port
for information as to the whereabouts
of possible hostile warships. The
Vestres was stopped once off the South
American coast. In the dead of night,
ft. shot was fired across her bows and
powerful searchlights played upon her.
The passengers were greatly fright
ened, fearing the attacking vessel was
a German cruiser and they expected
at any moment to be sunk or seized.
The vessel, however, proved to be a
British warship, which was patrolling
the South Atlantic on the lookout for
German merchantmen, and the- Vestres
was signaled to proceed.
PAYMENTS AREUP TO CITY
Bigelow to Ask $50,000 to Meet In
terest on Improvement Bonds.
An appropriation of $50,000 will be
asked for by City Commissioner Biga
low to meet , improvement bond inter
est payments next month. It is pro
posed to take the money from the gen
eral fund and transfer it to the inter
est fund.
Interest on newly issued bonds has
to be paid at the end of the first six
months after issuance, and the .first
payment by the property owners who
have given liens on their property to
back up the bonds does not fall due
until the-end of the first 12 montl
The city has to pay the interest for
that reason during the first six months
The money so loaned from the general
fund will come back when the bond
expire.
The first of the money to return to
the general fund will come next year
on bonds issued 10 years ago. Each
year the annual amount refunded to
the general fund will increase.

Mrs. Lennah F. Bain Kerr.
Mrs. Lennah P. Bain Kerr, wife
of Charles R. Kerr, died in, Sioux

a graduate of the Portland High

COAL BELIEVED IN RIVER
Properties Along Columbia Said to
Be Workable at Profit.
The Columbia River is underlaid with
coal seams that extend into the State
of Oregon, according to T. T. Nicholas,
of 649 East Ankeny street.
The recent announcement of the find
ing of heavy coal deposits on Coal
Creek in Cowlitz County, is not a new
discovery, he says. .
"About eight years ago a company
from The Dalles leased the coal rights
from the Bixby and Bush properties,"
he asserts. "They opened a slope to
develop the mine and built a railroad
from the Columbia River Slough, a dis
tance of - four miles, to the mine to
transport the coal to market. The Rue
& Clyde- Logging Company purchased
the road to take out logs and agreed
to transport coal for 15 cents a ton.
"The mine was later leased to the
Rose-Jones Company, which worked it
for about three . years, shipping many
thousand tons to Portland. Further
litigation brought by Mrs. Bush against
The .Dalles company. led to the aban
donment of the project until four weeks
ago, a Mr. Shanahan sent three men
to prospect the Bush property. They
founS the coal seam thicker and better
than in the Bixby property and a sec
ond seam as well, both dipping toward
the Columbia River at an angle of 20
degrees. I am confident from all re
ports that these two seams may be
worked with good profit to the qwn-ers."
POLES COME DOWN SOON
Committee to Begin Clearing Streets
of Public Service Equipment.
With the forming of a permanent
committee representing nearly all the
public service companies maintaining
poles in the streets plans are under
way for the' removal, as soon as pos
sible, of all poles and lines which can
be dispensed with. The move is m ac
cordance with the request several
months ago of City Commissioner Daly.
H. R. Wakeman, of the Portland
. Railway, Light & Power Company, has
been elected president of the commit
tee. A meeting will be held withii, a
few days at which definite anti-pole
plans will be formulated.

HEUSNER ASKED REASONS
Revocation of Franchise 3Iay Result
From Unsatisfactory Replies.
George F. Heusner has been re
quested by City Commissioner Daly
to show cause why the city should
not revoke a franchise granted to him
for the construction of an interurban
electric line from the Kenton district
to the West Side business district of
Portland. Commissioner Daly says
the franchise requires the commence
ment of work on the line within 90
days of the granting of the fran
chise and the city has received no
notice of work having been started.
Unless Mr. Heusner can make a
showing Mr. Daly will consider a
measure revoking the franchise.
COLUMBIA HIGHWAY OPEN
Road to AVarrendalo to Remain In
Use Until Wet Weather Sets In.
The beauties of the Columbia River
Highway were unfolded to the automo
bile public for the first time yesterday,
when County Koadmaster Teon. threw
open the barriers. The road, as far as
construction Is completed, that is, to
Warrendale, 16 miles from Chanticleer,
will remain open until wet weather
breaks.
The fine concrete&rch at Shepherd's
Dell, which had not set sufficiently
to allow of passage over this section
last week, will be dry enough for travel
at least by Sunday, so that there will
be no need to Install a telephone serv
ice and send people over the old and
arduous grade between Bridal Veil and
LatourelL
As the weather is by no means cer
tain to remain fine for Ions, Mr. Teon
is anxious that people avail themselvse
of their opportunity as soon as possi
ble. Many went over the road yester
day, coming back almost stupefied with
what they had seen and the enormous
amount of work that has been done so
quickly but so well.'
