TTTE MORXTXG OKEGONIA!?. FRIDAY, .TTJT,Y 23. 1915. COMMISSION ASKED TO GIVE ACCOUNTING Mr. Lister Orders Retrench ment in Public Service Expenditures. DWINDLING OF FUND SHOWN Overstepping Bounds for "Miscella neous" Items Is Attributed to" Large Force Making Valua tion of Telephone Property. OLYMPIA, Wash., July 22. (Special.) Members of the Public Service Com mission have Deen called to account by Governor Lister for expenditures from their "miscelloneous" fund, dur ing the first three months of this blennium, which, if continued, would have practically exhausted this fund by the end of the present calendar year. Of $172,875 appropriated by the re cent Legislature for the Public Service Commission, exclusive of the grain de partment, $92,875 is set aside for spe cific purposes. Including the salaries of the three members of the Commis sion and ao officers. . The remaining- $80,000, in Jhe lan guage of the apropriation, is set aside for "salaries of stenographers, clerk hire and .accountants, assistants, wit ness fees, assistant engineers, trav eling expenses, experts, furniture, sta tionery postage, office supplies and incidentals." Early Depletion ' Pointed Oat. While expenditures from the specific funds for which 92,875 is appropriated do not exceed the monthly allowance, expenditures from the 180,000 "miscel laneous" fund during the months of April, May and June amounted to t25, 515.35. Governor Lister, who requires monthly reports from all departments under him as to expenditures from each fund, on July 9 wrote separate letters to the three Commissioners, which, while courteously framed, were in the nature of reprimands. The executive pointed out that if ex penditures were continued for the next 21 months at the same rate, it would require more than $200,000 instead of $80,000 for the blennium, and also that continued expenditures at the same rate would mean the depletion of this fund soon after January 1. The Governor requested the Commis sion to adopt a specific budget for the remainder of the blennium and to furnish him with duplicate vouchers covering all expenditures under the fund to date. Telephone Valuation Heavy Draw. The larger part of the $25,515.35 ex pended thus far from the miscellaneous fund appears to have been used under the Immediate direction of Chairman C. A. Reynolds at the Seattle offices of the Commission, where an unusually large engineering force has been en gaged in the completion of the valua tion of the Bell telephone properties in the entire state. As soon as the valuation work is completed, the Commission announces that the Seattle office will be discon tinued, and that the chairman will make his permanent office at Olympia. The fact that Chairman Reynolds passed much of his time in Seattle, his home, and reported friction with the other members of the Commis sion, Arthur A. Lewis and Frank R. Spinning, together with the reputed hostility of the chairman" against pub lic service corporations, were taken as grounds, at the recent session of the Legislature, for opposition to his con firmation by the Senate. Retrenchment Move Announced. After the nomination of Mr. Reynolds had remained a few weeks in "cold etorage" in the rules committee, how ever, he was confirmed with compara tively few votes in opposition. Chairman Reynolds was credited, Boon after receiving his appointment, with a desire to move the main offices of the Commission to Seattle. Gov ernor Lister took a flat stand against this plan, while Reynolds later stated that he had meant no more than the opening of permanent Seattle offices, and had not intended the closing of the Olympia offices, which would have been illegal. It had also been reported, since ad journment of the Legislature, that the chairman would seek to prevent the reappointment of Commissioner Lewis Mr. Lewis was reappointed last month -for a six-year term, and also was designated by Governor Lister as his representative on the State Board of Equalization. Members of the Commission declare that prior to the receipt of the Gov ernor's letter they had started re trenchment in the miscellaneous fund.

TRADE PROBLEMS SERIOUS Country Seems Glutted With, Lum ber, While at Same Time 45,000 Sawmills Show Xo Permanent Sign of Weakening. OREGOKIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington, July 22. By co-operation, the Federal Trade Commission, the Forest Service and the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce hope to evolve some plan by which the Federal Gov ernment can aid in restoring normal conditions in the lumber industry. This plan of co-operation was agreed on after the National Association of Lumber Manufacturers at San Fran cisco had appointed a committee to advise the Trade Commission of the present condition of the American lumber industry. The Forest Service already was at work on various lumbei problems; the Trade Commission has taken up for consideration the request of many lumber manufacturers that a limited form of combination for en gaging in export trade be permitted, and the Bureau of Foreign and Do mestic Trade has started inquiries with a view to aiding in developing foreign markets, particularly in South America and the Orient. Waste la Pointed Out. The .Forest Service started a com prehensive investigation 10 months age to ascertain how the timber supply of the country is being utilized and whether normal conditions exist in the forest-using industries. The Forest Service has advised the Trade Commis sion that although logging and forest fires are reducing the timber supply by 80 or more billion feet a year, much low-grade timber is not marketable. From a quarter to a third of the mate rial grown in the forests is said to be wasted in manufacture. From the lum berman's viewpoint, says the Forest Service, the country seems to be glutted with lumber; but while some manufacturers have reduced their out put for the time being, there is no prospect of any permanent weakening In the attack of the 45.000 sawmills upon the remaining forests. The necessity for realizing on In vestments in timber, together with other causes, has led apparently to the construction of sawmills with an out put greatly in excess of the demand. , Retail Prices Advanced. "At the same time," says the Trade Commission, -many believe that lumber costs too much. Retail prices have gone up in the last two decades, due in part to the fact that the supplies of lumber nearest to the thickly popu lated states have been reduced. There has also been much speculation in standing timber, which" has tended to enhance timber values and to increase the prices demanded by lumber mills. The development of associations of lumber manufacturers and distributors has occasioned more or less belief that prices were being increased artificially. "The part played by the Forest Serv ice in the inquiry begun last year deals with the ownership of standing timber, the waste in its utilization, and the factors controlling the production and distribution of lumber." Foreign Markets Studied. "The Bureau of Foreign and ' Do mestic Commerce, with its large facili ties for the study of trade opportuni ties. Is conducting an investigation ot foreign markets, particularly in South America and the Orient, with a view to expanding the export trade in Amer ican lumber." In announcing Its co-operation in this inquiry the Federal Trade Com mission has issued a statement saying: "The purpose of the three Federal agencies in conducting this study is to make it constructive and helpful. The Government's point of view In ap proaching the problems concerned is directed toward the welfare of the country at large, but it is hoped that the inquiry will be of benefit to all branches of the lumber industry as well as to the consumers. "Conditions in the lumber trade have changed, due in part to the widespread use of other structural materials than wood. Lumbermen are confronted with many problems, often not fully under stood by them and seldom appreciated by the public Much can be accom plished by ascertaining the facts." ALBANY FACULTY CHOSEN W. B.
