MONEY DRUG ON MARKET Proceeds or Sales to Otlier Countries Xot Going Into Investments and Xot Expected to While Conflict Continues. "The end of the war is still the great desired fact for which the business of the country, particularly the big and investment business, is waiting." said a leading Portland banker In discussing the financial outlook. "The big develop ment things are waiting and this In a National situation. "The credits that are coming to this country in return for the sale of war munitions, provisions, etc., in Europe are going into the commercial banks, and although this money may be turned to investment account later, it is not being so used now. "The commercial banks are stronger in reserves than ever. Probably at no time in our history have the commercial banks had such big reserves of money on hand. The general opinion is that the coming crops will be the best we have had for a long time, and that will help conditions. But the general thought seems to be that the end of the war must come before there will be the general revival of business that we all hope to see. ; "Lumbermen of the Northwest await the settlement of hostilities before they can get tonnage. There is a market in the East for our lumber, but it is diffl- cult to ship by water because chips are lacking. This is the biggest industry in the Pacific Northwest, and the lumber situation is reflected quickly through out all our business activities. "I was talking with a lumberman re J cently and he said he had chartered Stwo ships for loading with lumber for ;the Atlantic seaboard, but the only mis take he made was in not getting five nhips. However, lumber manufacturers find it hard, if not impossible, to get the ships. "To my mind our industrial situation is bound up in the war. and when the armies decide to stop fighting we will all have cause to give thanks, not only . from humanitarian reasons but from the . material viewpoint as welI. CANADIAN BONDS ACTIVE financial Agent of Vancouver Finds Demand for Investments. Y. D. Kennedy, a financial agent of Vancouver, B. C. who came to Portland Saturday on business, says that mu nicipal bonds are favorite investments across the border and that there seems to be plenty of money available for these issues, despite war conditions. He said the cities of Victoria and Vancouver have recently disposed of large blocks of bonds, as also have the municipalities of West Vancouver, South Vancouver. Coquitlam, Westmin ster and other places. Vancouver sold bonds to the'amount of $1,118,000 on a 5 per cent basis to frjpitzer, Rorick & Co., of Toledo, O.. and South Vancouver sold an issue of $750, 000 on a 6 per cent basis. The other bonds, says Mr. Kennedy, were disposed of at good figures. Westminster sold bonds to the amount of $650,000, a large block having been taken by the Lum bermen's Trust Company, of Portland. All the bonds mentioned were issued for local improvement purposes. Mr. Kennedy said various plants are busy in Vancouver making war sup plies. Shrapnel and other necessities for the army are being turned out in large quantities and large orders are being executed for war purposes. FOREIGN DISPLAY SURPRISE Ranker Thinks Inter-Season Trade With South America Best Chance. R. W. Schmeer, cashier of the United States National Bank, who returned from San Francisco during the- week, was most impressed at the Panama- Pacific Exposition by the surprising exhibits of foreign countries, notably those of South America, Australia and New Zealand. He says he saw things In these ex hibits fully equal to those which the United States seeks to sell and on that account he believes it will be difficult for this country to make headway in many lines in those markets. How ever, he believes that the Southern countries may exchange with tis things grown in tne alternating seasons which may supplement our own products when tney are out of season with us.

Teomans, cashier of the Old National Bank, Spokane, spent Satur day in Portland, returning from -San Francisco, where he attended the joint bankers' convention of a group of Pa--ific Coast state associations. He said tlie convention was a success and he enjoyed the sessions. His time here was spent in calling on friends. Banks to Be Closed Vriday. Portland banks will remain closed all day Friday of this week, that date being set aside as a legal holiday by Governor Withycombe by proclama tion.

Thomas W. Lamont. director of the banking firm of J. P. Morgan & Co., will spend several weeks this Summer at Pelican Bay Lodge, formerly the Summer home of the late E. H. Har riman. on the Klamath Lakes. Leslie M. Butler, president of the Butler Banking Company.

DR.MARGQTTETO DECIDE MEETING WITH CHURCH SESSION HILI, BE HELD TOMCHT. Belief Held That Honor Tendered Pas tor of Westminster Presbyterian Church Will Be Accented. Rev. Henry JIarcotte, pastor of the Westminster Presbyterian Church, who returned from the East on Friday, will meet tonight with the session of the church and will announce his decision regarding the offer he recently received to become secretary of church direction in university centers. According to the belief of several who are in touch with the workings of the church there is a strong possibility that Dr. Marcotte will accept the offer. The honor accorded Dr. Marcotte Is one of the greatest that could come to any man in church work, for the office is one that requires a great amount or ability tact and general fitness. One of the members of the session said that if Dr. Marcotte accepted the work it was possible that he could make his head quarters in Portland and work on the raciflc Coast for a long time. Dr. Marcotte, in speaking of the offer. said: "it is a great opportunity and a great task and no small honor, but I am not ready yet to say whether or not shall accept it. The office would ne cessitate my traveling to a great ex tent. I have my family to consider and am deeply attached to the church here. While he was in the East Dr. Mar cotte attended the conference in Roch ester, N. Y., and visited, in many of the larger Eastern cities. Last night he told of his visit to Philadelphia. "The Cradle of Liberty" was the topic of his sermon. Hot Lake Attracts Visitors. HOT LAKE, Or., June 6. (Special.) Many Portland residents took advan tage of the proximity of the Hot Lake sanatorium to Union, where the Stock Show was held, and made the health resort their headquarters while at tending the show. The following, all of Portland, were registered here: Mr. and Mrs. Charles R. Frazier, Mrs. J. M. Kemp, Miss Helen Teal, W. McMurray, A. T. Warner, J. A. Williams, Oscar Smith, J. E. Barber. C. Von Stern, Cap tain M. Johnson and John Sternberg. SERIOUS AND HUMOROUS TALES OF CITY LIFE TOLD Aspiring Beau Brummel Suffers Mighty Drop Plea of Loquacious Girl for Larch Trail Lost on Deaf Man. H E was a dream of Springtime. White trousers, eilk shirt, Panama hat, white shoes and lavender hose made an ensemble effect that was strik ing, even without the slender tan swag ger stick that twirled flippantly as manipulated by a well-manicured hand. Serenely unconscious of the ''ohs" and "aha" of astonished admiration and pos sibly envy that followed in his wake, he strolled blithely down Washington street. A cigarette glowed at the end of a slender ebony tube held between his lips at a debonnair angle. As lie was crossing Fourth street on the oiled pavement blocks a news boy chirped up: "Hey. Jimmy! Lookutit! Lookutlt!" The vision turned angrily in the di rection of the impudent urchin. It was unfortunate. His dainty white shod foot slipped on t!e rail of the Oregon Electric tracks. For one agonized mo ment he balanced himself gracefully. Then it happened. Car greese, oiled pavement and a warm sun were in evidence. A week ago Saturday Miss Gertrude Larson, of Oregon City, came to Port land, registered at an obscure hotel, and left a new suitcase, a black silk um brella and a dark overcoat in her apart ments while she went out for a stroll. Up to a late hour last night Miss Lar son had been unable to find the hotel. The Bureau of Public Safety for Women was appealed to last Tuesday, but Its aid has proved unavailing. The young woman left the Oregon City car at First and Madison streets, and walked about looking for the elec tric depot that she might check her suitcase. Failing to find it she stopped at the hotel. There was a Chinese clerk behind the desk. She did not like the quarters after being assigned to her room, and intended leaving that night, though she had paid one day in advance. A double assault upon the pocket- books of those who attended the lunch eon for David Starr Jordan at the Chamber of Commerce Saturday left them poorer in purse, but rolled up a goodly sum for the Belgian war suf ferers and the Larch Mountain trail- building fund. After his address Dr. Jordan, as usual. r-tationed his secretary at the door of the hall to sell Belgian meal tickets to the people going out, and their re sponse to the appeal for money showed how effectually they had been touched by the speaker's pleas. Meanwhile, the party of young women who had been selling pencils for the purpose of raising money for the Larch Mountain trail, quite unconscious of what was going to happen up on the fifth floor of the building, surrounded the entrance of the building and com menced a systematic assault upon every one who came out of the elevator. Everything went and nobody asked for change back from the pretty sellers of pencils, but the expressions on the faces of the 200 or 300 men after hav ing "dug up" their dollar for Belgian relief, only to find that another "dig' was due before they could get out of the building, was an inspiration and a delight to the committee. "If I buy a pencil will you stop talk PiG CLUBS FAVORED State Bankers' Association to Take Young Folks' Notes. YEAR'S OFFICERS ELECTED Gathering Held in Connection With Other West Coast States and Portland Selected as Place for Convention Xext Year. Oregon bankers who met in conven tion in San Francisco at the end of May went on record with a resolution favoring the extension of boys' and girls' pig clubs, with the aid of local bankers, throughout the state. The resolution was in effect the same as that recently adopted at the Newbergr sectional bankers' convention, when bankers agreed to take pig paper, prop erly secured, to assist the young peo ple of the state who are being encour aged to go into hog-raising. The movement has been fostered by the Union Stockyards of Portland, which has used its facilities for bring ing high-class breeding stock to this state and has sought aid of bankers in many districts in placing it in the hands of farmers who were interested in swine growing, as well as of boys and girls who could be attracted to this form of money-making. This resolution, said Secretary Hart man of the State Bankers' Association, who has returned to the city, was per haps the most significant action of the state association in undertaking new work. The convention, being a joint affair in which the associations of California, Nevada and Idaho participated with Oregon, was devoted chiefly to the dis cussion of banking problems in which the Coast as a whole is interested. The Federal Reserve banking system was discussed extensively and foreign trade relations, both in Europe and South America, were the subjects of addresses by experts. Elaborate entertainment was pro vided by the Calif ornians, which in cluded visits and social affairs at the Panama-Pacific Exposition. Receptions, a ball and banquet were features. Oregon bankers will hold their 1916 convention in Portland, probably dur ing Rose Festival week. Officers were elected as follows: President, J. M. Poorman, president Bank of Woodburn; vice-president. F. L. Meyers, cashier La Grande National Bank; treasurer, William G. Tait, president First Na tional Bank, Tillamook; secretary, J. Hartman, Hartman & Thompson, bank ers, Portland; executive committee, E. D. Cusick, president J. W. Cusick & Co., bankers, Albany: T. G. Montgom ery, cashier First National Bank, Ba ker; E. G. Crawford, vice-president Lumbermen's National Bank. Portland; J. W. McCoy, cashier First National Bank, Ashland, and Mark N. Tisdale, president First State Bank, Sutherlin. PUBLIC INTEREST SOUGHT y Mrs. Templeton Calls Attention to. Boys' and Girls'. Aid Society. To perpetuate interest of the public in the work of the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society was the v purpose of the report of Mrs. C. R. Templeton, secretary of the Ladies' Advisory Board, which was read at the annual meeting of the so. ciety last Friday night. Mrs. Temple ton called attention to the work start ed under the former superintendent, Mr. Gardner, in Interesting less unfor tunate school children In the needs of ing?" asked a rather tight-fisted young man in the Imperial Hotel lobby Sat urday, as he cringed under the persist ent fire of a winsome maid who wouldn't let up until she had driven a sale to help build the Larch Mountain trail. Even with that assurance the sales woman went on with her endless chain of persuasion until the 10-cent piece was in her possession, and then moved on to conquer the next helpless man who chanced to be in her path. iiy nounaing eacn man she came across the girl won a substantial re ward in each instance save one. One of the men withstood her onslaught of chatter for 10 minutes. He was stone deaf. "Milk for cat 5 cents." This now will be an item of daily expense on tne account of the South era Pacific agent at Lebanon. Recently a forlorn cat straved into tne bebanon station. The boys about the place began to feed it scraps from their lunch. Simultaneously with the cat's ap pearance, it became apparent that the mice in the station building were dis appearing, boon the merchandise handled through the station began to suffer less from the maraudings of hungry mice. The company's claims were reduced accordingly. Officials of the Southern Pacific realize that to keep a cat about the place is a good investment and have authorized the agent to "squander" not to exceed a nickel a day for mi 11c George L. Baker will have to do some more ad -ertising If he wants to get himself recognized' in New Tork City and other of the "rural districts. A few weeks ago the Rose Festival committee, in sending out some pub licity matter for this years Festival used a picture of the queen of last year's Festival, together with her maids, and Mr. Baker, who was di rector-in-chlef last year. One of these papers, with the names of each individual in the group prop erly attached, was sent to a New York paper. Presently came back this reply: "You can't fool us with .the picture of that fellow you call Baker. We have been going to grand opera too long not to know our old friend Caruso when we see him. Some people are quick at repartee, but R. W. Montague, well-known at torney, demonstrated recently that he Is quicker. It was at the dinner given Senator Cummins, of Iowa, at the Chamber of Commerce. Ex-Senator Fulton was speaking. "I don't want to drift Into politics," said Mr. Fulton, "but all of us, at one time or another are Republicans, or Democrats, or "But I want to say that at no time am I a Democrat." The crowd broke into a laugh at the expense of Senator Chamberlain, Mr. Montague, and other prominent Dem ocrats. 4 whereupon Mr. Fulton con tinued: "But I want to say that I would rather be a Democrat than not be' an American." "Twice happy is he who is both,"" Mr. Montagues quick retort. the children who come under the care of the society, and urged co-operation of the public in extending this work. The value of personal contact in starting the children on the right path was commented on in the report and she asked the public to interest itself in the work of the society principally to counteract possible erroneous im pressions of the scope and intent of the society's endeavors. DEFORMITY IS REMOVED Little Colored Girl Has Both L,cgs Broken to Be Straightened. v A very small colored girl lies at the Good Samaritan Hospital with both her little legs straightened out in plaster casts. She was decidedly bow-legged until Thursday. There was a big clinic at the hos pital on that day. The lame, the crippled and the halt, passed in rapid succes sion through the hands of Dr. Otis F. Akin. The doctor examined the little girl's limbs and administered drastic treat ment. The child was put under an anaesthetic, the crooked limbs broken, and then re-set and placed in plaster casts. Now she lies all day in the hospital ward and wonders at that strange pain ful sensation in her limbs, and won ders why she can't move them. But in a little while the bones will knit, and the plaster casts will be removed. Then the little girl will be as straight and upright as she could possibly de sire. HIGH SCHOOL CONSIDERED Members of Six Boards In and Xear Milwaukie to Meet Tonight. Members of six school boards will meet tonight in the Milwaukie school house to consider organizing a union high school, with Milwaukie School as the center. The districts affected are Milwaukie, Wichita. Oak Grove, Con cord, Harmony, Sunnyside and Arden- wald. State Superintendent Church- Ill and County Superintendent Colaven will address the meeting. Initiative in the movement has been taken by Rob ert Goetz, principal of the Milwaukie High School; J. W. Grasle, B. M. Fisch, Mrs. George Wissinger and otners. It is urged that the cost of maintain ing a union high school at Milwaukie would be less than lor parents to send their children to Portland and pay carfare and tuition. Milwaukie now has a biKh school of 40 students. Mil waukie district recently bought a. cen tral site which may be used lor nigra school purposes. PERSONALMENTION. S. E.

Merchants National Bank Founded 1SS6 HOPE SEEN III CROPS Prosperity for Farmer of Northwest Is Predicted. LUMBER OUTLOOK BETTER Merchants National Bank's Trade Letter for June Sees Many In dications of Returning- Pros perity for Entire Country. Good crops for the Pacific Northwest and the whole country as well, with high prices predicted for the products of the farmer, is the chief note of op timism sounded in the letter on trade conditions issued by the Merchants National Bank for June. It is asserted that this is the one feature of the entire outlook about which there need be no reservation. Due to the traffic in war supplies, it is said that the foreign trade for April made, a record for the month and near ly equaled the record-breaking busi ness of March in this line. The increase- in the balance of trade for the month amounted to $131,000,000, mak ing the total of this item for the 10 months of the fiscal year $851,000,000. England Orders Lumber. In discussing conditions in the Pa cific Northwest, the report says: In keeping with conditions In other parts of the country the Pacific Coast and the Pacific Northwest are- marking time and waiting for a change in underlying condi tions over which they have no control. The lumber trade is contending with a general falling off in new construction, high ocean freight rates and low prices. Yet on the whole the operators are more cheerful than a while back. Some mills are working at about 80 per cent or their output on Engli&h orders in spruce. As fast as vessels can be obtained shipments are made to the At lantic Coast and to Europe. The volume of the retail yard business and prices for this class of stock are practically normal. One railroad during the past month or dered 0,000,000 feet of ties. Gains are being made in the trade with the West Coast of South America. The future trade in salmon Is most prom ising. Opening prices for this season were firm. It is believed, the volume and quality of the pack will Justify higher prices than prevailed during last season. Agricultural implement houses are finding Dusiness much improved. Hop men are not in the least depressed. They believe that their trado with England will be very large this season and that all of the factors of the war are tending toward better prices and a wider market. Crop conditions are good. Wool Is Being Held. There is almost a deadlock in sales of wool m the territory tributary to Portland. Cold weather has held back shearing some what later than usual. Due to the feeling that Eastern buyers are banded together to keep down prices, when the general belief is that they should be higher, the growers are In no hurry. In this section also tney are- beinir advised that there is an unusual shortage in the world's supply. All of these conditions are responsible for the few sales that are being made. The losses due to the cold spell of the early part of the month are said to be negligible and to have been much exaggerated. In individual casag business was fair last month In the territory tributary to Portland, but as a general thing, due to the cold weather which accompanied the rain, retail business suffered by comparison with both April and March. The statistics dealing with Portland's business transactions are generally adverse, the falling off being espe cially noticeable In the export of wheat. This was due to a scarcity of shipping, a condition which it is believed will be reme died during the coming month. The volume of tourist travel is just be ginning to make itself felt both in the stimulation of retail business and the gen eral spirit of cheer which Easterners are bringing with them. Portland, during the next three months, will entertain officially and otherwise many thousands of visitors from all parts of the United States. She will extend to them a hearty welcome and offer them her hospitality with an ungrudging hand. Is the Humane "Society Sentimental? Yes. and the society is proud of it.
