Three Organizations Adopt
Resolutions Bearing on
Threatened Strike.
PUBLIC WELFARE VIEWED
Progressive Business Men, Ad Club
and Realty Board Accuse Labor
of Trying to Dispel First In
dustrial Kay of Sunshine.
The acute condition which threatens
In the Bhlpbuildins situation In Port
land brought forth adoption of a reso
lution yesterday from the Progressive
Business Men's Club favoring the open
chop, while President W. D. Whitcomb,
of the Portland Ad Club,, appointed a
special committee from that organiza
tion to investigate the matter at once
and prepare a report also recommend
ing action by the Ad Club. The Port
land Realty Board has taken action.
The membership of these organiza
tions represents approximately 1000 of
the members of business concerns of
the city and the sentiment in both caees
WU clearly in favor of their usins
every effort to assist in any measure
necessary to ward off the menace that
hangs over the shipbuilding industry of
Oregon as a renult of the threatend
Strike. -
The open shop resolution of the Pro
gressive Business Men's Club was
adopted Immediately following the re
port of a special committee that Mad
been named to look into the labor situ
ation with reference to the shipbuild
ing Industry. Its Import was unmis
takable, and there was a keen debate
before It was finally passed with an
emphatic affirmative vote.
Open Shop Resolution Adopted.
"Resolved, That the Progressive
Business Men's Club go on record in
favor of the open shop and give Its
support to any effort to maintain equal
opportunities to all labor," was the
text of the resolution.
The committee that turned in the re
port consisted of C. H. Farrington, J.
B. Tomlinson and F. T. Richards.
This committee Is going further Into
a study of the situation and will file
with the club next week a general sur
vc of the industry in its comparison
with the same industry in Seattle, tfan
Francisco and elsewhere.
Mr. Richards, In reply to questions
from the floor, gave some figures indi
cating the magnitude of the shipbuild
ing industry in Oregon and pointed out
to what extent the prosperity of the
state would be affected by any labor
disturbance which would tend to check
lis development.
The men employed In the business
In Oregon now he estimated at from
fiOOO to 8000 and represent a payroll of
:. 000,000 annually.
The value of the 38 ships now build
ing in Portland is J21.000.000, or exact
ly what the total building permits In
Portland amounted to In 1910. Com
T'areU with the building permits in
Portland In 1916 the value of these
ships represents more than four time
as great a sum.
The Ad Club committee named by W.
TT. "Whitcomb will begin its investiga
tion of tho situation at once and hopes
to have a report and recommendation
to present to the club at the meeting
next Wednesday.
Public Oood Considered.
"The subject is one that bears vitally
upon the whole future prosperity of
the state, and no organization can
fhlrk Its duty to Inform Itself fully
on the matter ahd to do what it can to
avert conditions which threaten the
industry now in its very beginning,"
nald Mr. Whitcomb. "It te not a ques
tion of whether one favors or does not
favor labor organizations, or employ
cm' organizations.
"It Is a question of the whole citi
zenship lending its energy to help so
far as possible to bring a solution to
the problem which will leave intact
the beginnings of an Industry which
represents the first ray of light in the
dawn of a new Industrial era."
The Realty Board adopted resolu
tions similar to those of the Ad Club,
which provided for a committee to
make a careful investigation and re
port on tho demands made by the labor
unions on the shipbuilders, and the
irobablo effects of the granting of
these demands upon the welfare of
Portland.
Members of the Realty Board com
mittee are: F. E. Taylor, Dean Vincent,
George Schalk. W. R, Kaser. F. N.
Clark, H. W. Fries and F. A. Jacobs.
The committee appointed yesterday
hy Mr. Whitcomb consists of the fol
lowing: C. C. Chapman, Fred Newton
Hid Percy Arlett.

PORTI.AVD. Or.. Dee. 7. Would like a
recipe for chocolnte pie, not the layer cake
kind, but baked in a crust. TlranklnE vou.
31 ::r . A, -o.
1HOPE the following filling will suit
you. It may have more or less choc
olate, as personal taste may decide.
The pastry may be any good "medium
rich" short crust or "flakey" crust
whichever you have best success with.
Use a deep pie plate, and have the oven
hot at first to make the under crust
firm; then a little cooler, to cook the
custard without curdling.
Chocolate Pie Scald one cup rtcn
milk, stir into this one scant half cup
flour, mixed with one-half cup sugar,
and one-fourth teaspoon salt. Stir until
the mixture thickens, then mix in three
egg yolks beaten with one-fourth cup
sugar and one ounce (or more ir liked)
softened chocolate, one-half teaspoon
vanilla and a few grains of cinnamon
or alspice. Bake in a single crust and
when cooled a little, but not cold, deco
rate with a meringue made of three
stiff-beaten egg whites and six or sev
en level tablespoons sugar.
Dry the meringue in the oven, belnt
sure that the heat is not strong enough
to puff and toughen the egg whites.
Another wav is to bake the pastry
shell separately and fill with the cus
tard mixture, which has been cooked
over hot water until the eggs thicken,
and then allowed to cool. It will thick
en further on cooling and should be
stirred while cooling to prevent the
formation of a skin. cover witn
sweetened whipped cream flavored to
taste wtih vanilla. If liked, ono or
two etc whites, beaten stiff, may be
folded into the cold custard before the
baked pie shell is filled, thus giving
lighter texture.
Another filling for a previously
baked pie shell would be chocolate Ba
varian cream.
PORTLASD. Dro. 2.",. 1 would like, to
have ;l few of my friends pass the afternoon
wltu me. I want 10 serve one couruc.
1. If I chould serve Martha TVa-shln ztoti
pie, what would be best to serve with It?
What would ue suita.oie to serve won
a fruit salad, containing oranKes. bananas,
nuu. grapes and marfihrnallows? Tho dress
ing Is a. boiled custard containing lemon,
aranire and nineaDDla luice. When ready to
serve mi, ,-nld dressing with whinDed cream.
a. wnat snouiu De serveu wiui .iuui
salad?
I have used many of your recipes ana naa
good success, l Hope I am not asking too
much of you and that I may find an answer
in the paper soon. Sincerely, Ml;.-. E. B.
I am glad you find this column
helpful.
1 I take It that the "Martha Wash
ington pie" you mean is really a cake.
With this you might 'serve either cof
fee or chocolate with whipped cream.
2. This being a sweet salad, any kind
of sweet or (preferably) seml-swoet
sandwiches or wafers might be served.
Avoid by all means meat or cheese, or
rish, or chopped pickle sanowicnes witn
a sweet salad of this character. You
might serve also tea or coffee or choc
olate, or hot or cold fruit punch with
such a "one-course lunch"; but If It Is
an "afternoon tea" you are serving, do
not serve salad at all.
3. With Waldorf salad avoid highly
seasoned meat or fish sandwiches; but
minced chicken sandwiohes might pos
sibly be served. Some kinds of potted
cheese will "go with" the celery and
apple combination. semi-sweet sand
wiches or plain bread and butter sand
wiches would be good: but avoid any
really sweet filling In sandwiches with
this salad.
Good Things
In The Market
THE poultry market must be award
ed the banner this weelc for the

almost every other offering take a back
seat. Keeping them In sight, at a re
spectful distance, come guinea-fowl,
at X and 81.25 each.
Turkeys are very scarce, and So and
40 cents a pound Js asked for them.
After the boycott scare at Thanks
giving the farmers evidently thought
the birds would keep fresh and salable
longer if allowed to continue strutting
round the barnyard, and so at Christ
man the demand exceeded the supply
and the price again rose.
Hens are 22 to 25 cents a pound.
Spring roasters and friers, 25 to 30
cents; ducks, 25 to 30 cents; geese, 20
to 25 cents a pound.
