FORCE TO BE REDUCED St. Johns Wliarr Is Jlost Scriouslj A f reeled, $2 085 licquest Being Cut to S650 InteWst and In surance Are Xot Changed. Not including two items, aggregat ing $2850. yet to be decided, the bud get of the Commission of Public Bocks for 1916 will total $ L'07,641.77, Jess estimated revenue of $30,000, leav ing J177.641.77 to be apportioned for its use. The original estimate was J222.5S2.4G, with the estimated reve nue placed at $25,000. The revenue lately was increased , $5000 and the Commission proceeded to cut various jtems. Two per cent was allowed lor delinquencies in the collection of taxes. The 1915 budget was $164,998,13. A summary of the results of yes terday's meeting shows that for the office of the Commission $13,375 was asked in salaries, which amounted to $10,650 in the 1915 estimate, $8850 be ing allowed. For supplies $o&91 was asked, it being $3463.50 last year, and $2266 was allowed. On Dock No. 1. salaries asked aggregated $8010. which last year was $5935.90 and $7100 was allowed. Salaries at St. Johns Dock Cat. For supplies on that dock $2830 was asked, $1248.44 was the figure last year and $2050 was allowed. On Dock No. 2 salaries were first estimated at $5325 and were $3037 in 1915 and the Commission allowed $5025. Supplies there, which included the paving of Kast Water street, were estimated at $5981.69. last year being $1079.74 and $1216 was allowed. On Dock No. 3, St. Johns, the request for $2085 in salaries was cut to $650. The city has had that property only eince the annexation of St. Johns and expenses were $135 for salaries, so only a wharfinger at $75 a month and the present aged watchman at $10 a month were permitted, the Commis sion deciding to maintain tlie public section of the dock in the daytime for the present. In reducing the esti mate for Dock No. 2 it was ordered that the cost of paving Cast Water ttreet be taken care of by bond is sue. Insurance Not Reduced. In the matter of taking care of fire insurance $2005 was asked for as compared with $5366 last year, and an increase was voted to $2055 In lia bility insurance no cut was made, $1559.30 being asked for and allowed. The figure in the 1915 estimate was $1089.98. On maintenance $7603.87 was asked and allowed. Last year It was $2000. Interest was allowed as asked. $111, 610, which was $107,560 last year. The same action was taken on the figure for sinking funds, $57,076.60 being al lowed as against $00,629 last year. The Commissioners were tied on a vote to allow a draftsman and field inspector, salaries of which aggregate $2850, but Commissioner Selling was not present and the matter will be considered at another meeting this week, as the budget is to be filed Mon day. It was said that the Commis sion will be about $7000 short on the 1915 budget and one item of $1200 Was lost through a deficiency in tax collections. Employed Force Smaller. It was voted to employ one ste nographer at the headquarters, in stead of two, drop one watchman asked for at Dock No. 1, reduce the salary of the wharfinger at Dock 2 from $150 to $125 a month and the salary of a locomotive crane driver at Dock No. 1 was ordered increased from $7 5 to $90 a month. William JIacMaster. heading a com mittee from the Chamber of Com merce, said they found it unneces sary to suggest to the Commission its affairs as set forth in the budget, that it was felt that the members had clone excellent work in the past and at a time when they worked under dis advantages and that the dock project probably could not have been handled better. More Bonds for Docks loon. He said that instead of the respon sibilities of the Commission being about ended as regards new work, as had been mentioned, he felt certain that the taxpayers , would authorize more bonds issued as there would have to be more accommodations for shipping with the increase in the com merce of the Pacific that must follow the war. He also believed that the total bond issues for dock purposes would ultimately bo $10,000,000 to $12.- tioo.ooa. F. C. Knapp, when asked regarding his ideas as to the St. Johns dock, said he felt that it should be kept ; ree to the public as Docks No. 1 and 1!, not continuing a lease for the upper leck at $200 a month, which was in effect when the city took over the property. The lease expires in June, 1916. W. IS. Mackay and W. D. J3. Dodson concurred with Mr. Macilaster and 7lr. Knapp. Fletcher Linn and George C. Mason, representing the Non-Partisan League, expressed much the same sentiments. MX Kit WXIAj tJSK XEW DOCKS Honolulan to l'ollow Dakotan Willi Large Xcw York Cargo.

PREPAREDNESS IS URGED Defenses Unfit, Munitions and Arms Inadequate and Army Too Small to Defend Any Possession Held, Says Senator Chamberlain. Resolutions urging National prepar edness for defense and denouncing: peace propagandists who oppose marching?, in the public schools, lest it inspire militarism in the pupils, were adopted unanimously last night at the regular meeting of the Multnomah Bar Association. A committee composed of James H. McMenamin, T. B. McDevitt and H. L. Lyon was named to transmit resolutions to the School Board favor ing such training in the schools as will fit boys for serving in the Army if called on for purposes of defense. A resolution was adopted favoring steps by the Federal Government to put the country in a position to defend it self and copies will be sent each Sena tor and Representative in Congress. Propaganda Is Denounced. George S. Shepherd moved that it was the sense of the association that it had no patience with the pacifists who op pose marching in the schools. He re ferred somewhat caustically to the ac tion of the School Board in having sent a Portland teacher to The Hague Peace Conference, with the result that the delegate opposes marching in the local schools, lest they become imbued with the military spirit. The resolution was framed so that the association went on record as "de nouncing" such propaganda. The stand taken by the attorneys followed an address by Senator Cham berlain, who chose to speak on the problem of national defense, and told of the complete unpreparedness of the Nation. "We are absolutely unprepared," he said, "in men, in arms, defenses and munitions. We have not arms and munitions enough to arm the militia of this country. We have, in the country and insular possessions, about 100,000 troops. In this country there are about 25,000 soldiers, the bulk of which are on "the Mexican bqrder. Our mobile army is not fully officered. In Hawaii, Alaska, the Philippines and other places are our troops, but there are not enough in any one place to defend it. Detrnsts Declared Unfit. "Arms and munitions factories, with a single exception in Illinois, are all in New England, New York and Pennsyl vania, so that in the event of invasion and capture of that district, we would be helpless as far as getting equip ment from those sources. "It is a mistake to believe that the United States is able to protect itself against attack. The defenses we have in the United States today are abso lutely unfitted to withstand attack as war is now waged. "Every institution in this country that receives money from the Federal Government should put in military training. Every public school that re ceives money from the taxpayers should be compelled to teach the boys some thing that would fit them for military service if called on. There is no finer exercise than military drill. "There are those who oppose march ing in the public schools. I regret to say we , have others in this country, Carnegie and his cult, who foster the spirit that, had it prevailed in 1776. would have resulted in the country never being free, but we would still be a colony of Great Britain. Munitions AVouId Last Few Hour. "We ought to train the young men of this country, despite the cries of the pacifists that we would not in that way be training soldiers, but men who want war. I would rather have the military spirit in this country than the spirit of pusillanimity fostered by Car negie and others of that school." In ansyer to a question Senator Chamberlain said he had heard it as serted that if all the ammunition in the country were shot simultaneously by the military forces it would last but four or five hours. "Of course," he said, "it would not happen that all the artillery and infantry would be firing at once." ' Senator Chamberlain said every pas senger who went aboard the Lu.sitania took his life in his hands, as ample warnings had been posted before the steamer sailed from New York. How ever, he said, the President acted in the only way consistent with right, and American citizens must be allowed to travel the seas on either neutral or belligerent ships if they so wish. He declared it to be the duty of every American to stand behind the Presi dent and uphold his hands in the pres ent crisis. Xetvs From Oregon Ports. ASTORIA, Or.. Sept. 28. (Special.)

Duncan, Secre tary of Portland Grocers & Mer chants' Association, It is self-explanatory. Read it. PORTLAND, Sept, 28. (To the Edi tor of the Portland News.) In "Please Answer This" you go a long way to make It appear that produce from local fields was burned by the ton before the establishment of the public mar ket. In doing this you take pains to blame both growers and commission men. You accuse grocers of doing nothing and openly brand the commis sion men "hogs and robbers." Such assertions cannot be too se verely condemned. No well informed man of any calling, who respects his' reputation for fidelity to facts, would go on record with such misinforma tion and malice. Every man with brains enough to grease a gimlet knows the commis sion men never handled local produce. Every farmer will tell you he sold to grocers and peddlers. Grocers never bought of commission men when local growers could supply the demand. Will you dispute this statement? Will' you again twist facts to bolster the cause of a few scalawags? Maybe you will say local farmers approve the market. Do you still wish to continue in er ror after being shown where you blundered? Would you bolster your misinformation with stubbornness? Then state plainly that local farmers formerly tried to sell through com mission men; that their produce was burned by the ton; that our commis sion men are a band of robbers; our grocers a set of fools. Make it plain. Don't tack it to the bottom of a long hypothetical ques tion. Go on record in plain English and in future we will be able to place your paper. For my part I am willing to credit the News with sincerity and attribute your assertions to the machinations of the man for whom you speak. If you are sincerely interested in the local farmer you will speedily examine his predicament, brought about by Bigelow's benefactions to distant ship pers, and set about advocating his cause instead of slandering the busi ness men who make your paper pos sible. If perchance Bigelow has sought to mislead the News into the quicksands of his political morass by placing it in a false light with the business men of Portland. I can but express the hope that your paper will fare better with advertisers than did a former mouth piece or-our lately risen ribbon count er financier. But as I was saying, local farmers never sold through commission men; local produce was never burned by the ton to create a monopoly; Front street merchants are not "hogs and rob bers"; grocers are not fools, and the newspaper that makes such assertions deserves the contempt of business men the world around.
