SHIP RELIEF DENIED
Senator Chamberlain Declines
to Accede to Chamber's Wish.
BILL ADMITTED MAKESHIFT
Oregon Representative In t'pper
llonrt Deaf I'j Pica for l.mcr
4cm Pleasure Allowing TTm;
of Foreign Bottoms.
Although i.i his letters to' th Port
land Chamber uf Commerce Senator
c'harabrlain declared that he believed
h ship pun-haeft bill before the Con
stress 'simply a makeshift" and ex
pressed his Jubt that it would "give
muoh relief to producers and cosifitim
era. he declined to consider the re
quest of tho Portland Chamber of Com
merce for an emergency bill Allowing
shipment of Kood between Atlantic
ud Pacific ports in foreign bottoms.
The Chamber nlo registered It oppo
sition to tho ship purchase bill, but
Senator Chamberlain In a letter re
ceived here yesterdaj- declared that he
intended to support the bill.
The. blame for conditions be placed
upon "crudo navigation laws." which,
lie declared, "were gotten up not to
advance shipping interests, but to ad
vance the, interests of shipping trusts
and monopolies.
"1 think next session," he wrote. "I
will formulate a bill having for its
puroose the creation of a commission
to look into the, matter and to report
lo Concress ou a general revision of
tiie laws on the subject."
in response to an urgent telegram
sent In reply to his letter asking that
the emergency bill providing for ship
ment in foreign bottoms be introduced,
he telegraphed back: "Your telegram
opens a wide field for controversy. In
my judgment it will not be possible to
get Congress to net favorably on the
-suggestion contained In the telegram."
l.p to date all Senator Chamber
lain has promised will be the for
mulation of a bill for the next session.
to provide a commission to investigate
and report on a revision of the navi
gation laws. In the meantime he fa
vors the ship purchasing bill, which
he holds to be a makeshift and not
probable to bring about material relief
for shippers, producers or consumers.
The original letter of the Chamber of
t ommerce, which brought about flis
messages stating his position, follows
"Our organization wishes to register
its opposition to present ship purchas
ing bill, but advocates the change In
th shipping laws which will enable
citizens of I nited States profitably to
enter into the purchase, construction
and operation of .ships. Also, we ask
for an emergency hill from year to
year allowing foreign bottoms to carry
freight between the Atlantic and Pa
cific coasts, being impossible at pres
ent to get tonnage, which Is working
a great hardship. Also, reiterating
ur former recommendation of ap
pointment of a commission of compe
tent men to e-tnmine into and thor
oughly revise shipping laws."

EASTERN TRADE IS SOUGHT
I'ort-lnnd Flouring Mills Company to
Opm wr York Office.
Th rorSar.d Flourins- Mills Company
ts cnlar;nr Its field, of operations by
frolnsr after trade on the Atlantic sea
board. II. R. Spencer, who has bean in
the local office for many years, has
started for New York to become man
ager of the Eastern office, which win
be opened there immediately on his
arrival.
Mr. Spencer visited the Eastern
states last Fall to investigate the possi
bilities, and liis favorable report caused
tire company's decision to establish an
Eastern branch.
The, purpose is to sell Oregon flour
In competition with the Eastern article.
This, It has been found, can be done
satisfactorily, as the Panama Canal af
fords a means or quick transportation
at a low rate of freight.
The company Intends to go after the
domestlo rather than, the foreign trade
of New York. For a population of 20,
000.000 in that section a. great quantity
of soft wheat flour, as well aa hard
wheat flour, must be provided. The
supply of soft wheat In tha Eastern
states Is not eitenslve, and the stocks
rs usually exhausted by the first of
the year. This, It is believed, will make
an opening for the Pacific; Northwest
ern product, and It is thought large
trade In Oregon flour can be built up
there. t ,
Mr. Spencer is one of the best-known
flour men here, and Is considered well
qualified to build up the company'e
business in Its new field.

WASH1NOTOX. Feb. 10. Although
dealr teurally report that the nmiuy
demand for opplei did not prove to be aa
expected, the reiult ot Investigations con
duLterf tv the otiica ot niaikota ot tno
Inltea Slates Uepartment of Agriculture
would Indicate that the movement of culd
storane apples durlne the month of Deccm
br was satisfactory under the conditions.
Three hundred and sir firms reported for
Januiry I. ot which number 231 reported
for December 1. It the average condition
for th.s number of storages situated in all
parts of the country Is a criterion, approx
imately 1 per cent of the total cold-storas
.nt,4in iw,mr 1 were marketed prior to
January 1. The decrease In barrel holdings
was much Kreater man tor
analyzing- the movement, it is seen that dur
ing tho month of December 1 per cent of
barreled apples were moved aa against 4.i
per cent of boxes.
The percentage ot movement In December
for box apples was small, but It is to be re
membered that large quantities ot thla pa.k
are held in common storage in the box
apple producing areas, aud that box apples
placed in cold storage under conditions ex
isting thla )r were held largely for the
later Winter markets.
Remembering that cold-storage apples
met with heavy competition in the distribu
tion of common storage stock, it is apparent
that the movement ot barreled r.pples In
December, as Indicated by the above re
capitulation, was liberal. It being under
stood that common storage apples are
chieflv marketed prior to January 1, and
that the entire cotnmon-storase holdings as
a rule are out of the way by February 1
those Interested In the cold-storago deal
should not be discouraged in so far as the
future la concerned. This does not mean that
high prices can be expected, but rather that
th fruit ought to move gradual!- to meet
the heavy demand which has been created
durinj the past few months as a result of
bountiful supply and low prices. W itn
common-storage apples out of the way. the
demand for cold-storage stock will increase
proportionately. . ,
The cold-storago holdings of apples are
admittedly large, and a regular vlKor"''
movement tnrouguoui
season may bo necessary to prevent disaster
in the Spring. Growers and dealers are
urged neither to dump their holdings nor to
stand for arbitrarily high prices. Panicky
selling usually means grid, dui an .uu -
should seek to move old-storage apples
gradually and with such rapldiiy as the
market allows, so that the deal may be
wound up in relatively good shape.

CALIFORNIA VEGETABLE PRICES HIGH.
Kains in California 3luke Shipments Almost
InipolMe.
The big btorm in California Is the cause
of high vegetable prices in all the markets
of the Coast. It Is almost Impossible, be
cause of the rain, to make shipments from
the Southern state, and supplies In some
lines here are at low ebb. Celery is prac
tically off the market. A car was due yes
terday, but will not arrive until this morn
ing. It will sell at $4 a crate.
The head lettuce market is strong and
15 cents higher at l.S."i2 a crate. A fur
ther advance In this line is In sight.
Local dealers also find it difficult to get
a necessary supply of oranges, and no relief
in this respect can be looked for until tho
weather in California becomes more favor
able. In the meantime, the orange market
is very firm.
Winter Killed Grain at Cislrkhton.
CLARK3TON, Wash., Feb. lO. (Special.)
Becaase of tho dryness and the recent
freezing ot the soil, prospects for a good
wheat crop in this section of the state are
the poorest they have been since the dry
5P11 of Ii03. in the opinion of State Grain
Inspector Jarboe. Many farmers have al
ready purchased seed for resceding their
Winter acreage In the Spring. They beliere
their crops have been killed by the lack ol
moisture that was prevented from entering
the earth by the freese-up this season. These
same reports also come from Eastern Oregoa
and Northern Idaho point. The only pos
sible relief Is in the snow that at present
covers the fields. , Should this thaw out
the soil, melt and penetrate the ground,
much of the Winter wheat would be saved
Three weeks before the first snowfall thlt
saoa the fields were frozen unusually deep,
and when the snow melted the moisture ran
off without going Into -the ground.
Hop Acreage to Be Increased.
BURN A VISTA. Or., Feb. 10. fSpaciaL)
Hopgrowers iu the Lwcklamute Valley are
preparing to increase the acreage during the
coming season. Old fields, heretofore used
as grain fields and found to be unprofitable
for sucb crops, wWl be converted into nop
yards. New yards will ba set In the low
lands of the Luckiamute River, where the
water rises high In the Winter.
During the season of 1914. the -crop was
lesa than In previous years, while the qual
ity was declared to be exceptionally high.
The entire crop now has been sold.
Ninety Per Cent Lewistoo Crop Sold.
LEWISTON, Idaho, Feb. 10. (Special.)
Grain . deal era figure that 00 per cent of the
wheat crop of 1914 is in the hands of the
dealers. Considerable barley la still held
by farmers, although much was sold bn the
recent bulge. The acreage In the Lewis-
ton territory will he largely wheat this year
and wll) bo larger than ever before. Owing
to the -high prices prevailing for wheat con
siderable corn will he planted on Summer
fallow, which will furnish cheaper feed
for hogs. Several of the larger farmers
are building silos to handle the corn fodder.
No Snap te Egg; Trade.
Receipts of eggs were much lighter yes
terday, but there was no snap to the iriir-
ket and the undertone continued weak
Prices were unchanged.
Poultry wes in fair supply. Hens sold
readily at firm prices, but geese and tur
keys were not wanted. Country dressed
meats were firm.
There were no changes in the dairy pro
duce markets.

No change was announced In refined
sugar prices yesterday. At Now York the
market reversed Its recent course and raws
broke sharply, declining So points. Refined
