He urged teachers to encourage In pupils the desire to write. He said that, besides Its being a vocation for many men and women. It was a desir able avocation for the woman who re mained at home. Mr. Puffer will speak this morning at 9 o'clock at Hawthorne School and at Montavilla at 10:30 o'clock. He will speak at the same schools at the same hours Thursday.

Milwaukee ex-Mayor Says Portland Has Chance. i Principals Told Practically All High School Boys Can Have Choice Made Before Gradua tionBanger Is Shown. In the first of a series of lectures on vocational guidance to be given be fore teachers, pupils and principals during the week, J. Adams Puffer, di rector of the vocational guidance bu reau of Boston, yesterday asserted that with the proper direction vocations could be selected for all high school boys before graduation. The lecture was civen before the principals at the Hoard rooms in the Courthouse. They will be continued every afternoon dur- inc the week at 4 o'clock. Mr. Puffer said that questions could be asked boys and girls that would in dicate what they were best fitted for. He outlined the qualities of each pro fession and asserted that 5 per cent of the htsrh school boys entered pro fessional fields. Twenty-five per cent. he said, followed highly skilled me chanical lines. "Boys should be cautioned before en tering the professions." said Mr. Puffer. "They should be made to realize that there should be attached to the profes sion they choose an idealism that means service." He said that statistics showed a physician could serve 200d persons and mat in this country there was a physician for every 600 persons, a fact tuul made irresponsible practi tioners resort to unethical means to procure and retain business.

A telegram was received by Federal authorities yesterday Indirectly from K. R. Erickson.

Snow CHINA TRADE CALLS Portland's future lies In the devel opment of manufactories and in the es tablishment of a commercial relations with the Orient," says David S. Rose, ex-Mayor of Milwaukee, addressing the members' council of the Chamber of Comerce at the luncheon yesterday noon. "As a member of a commission to In vestigate conditions in China in their relation to the United States I passed considerable time there under the most favorable auspices, and I am con vlnced that China offers the great market future to us. All that remains for ua to do Is to develop the means of carrying on commerce! and the cities of the Pacific Coast, such as Portland, are ideally situated lor this purpose. Party to Sail for Orient. Mr. Rose is heading a party of 25 business men who arv to leave soon from Vancouver. B. (X, for a trip td China to make a survey to prepare for the establishment of the instruments necessary to developing a large com merce with China. The company which he represents is the Chinese-American Product Exchange Company, a 110,000.- 000 corporation which contemplates a broat three-fold commercial develop ment and which expects to make Port land one of Its points of exchange on the Coast. "Wi will attack the problem from three aspects," he said. "Selling, bank ing and transportation. It Is only by having banking connections established In the Orient to handle your exchange and by having your own carriers that the selling phase of the line can be carried out effectively In competition against other countries In the field. Competitors now control the banking In China and the first step must be the development of our own banking con nections. The company which Mr. Rose repre sents contemplates dividing Its stock Into 10 series of $500,004 each, each series to finance one steamship in the proposed line. Under this provision the whole fleet will be working for the advantage of each ship and the stock holders In each ship. Portland Hu Opportunity. Norfolk, Charleston and other East Coast ports are preparing to enter the programme of the company and build ships for the fleet, and similar plans will be developed on the Pacific Coast. Portland, by subscribing stock in one series, can make Itself a terminal port In the operations of the vessel to oe built and reap its share of the profits from the business to b developed. Mr. Rosa was In conference with various business men of the city at the Chamber of Commerce yesterday after noon, among whom were some of the leading representatives of the Chinese commercial organization of Portland, who are Intensely Interested in the plan and eager to have Portland participant in its execution.

Jan; 22. (Spe cial) Despite the fact that snow three to eix feet deep covers the ground in the Weippe and Pierce City districts, cruisers are actively engaged In get ting estimates of merchantable trees directly, north of Weippe. As a rule there Is no cruising of tim ber when the snow is so deep, and it Is thought that the building of the Chicago, Milwaukee 8t St. Paul Into that eietrlct has caused the Northern Pacific Railway to desire to obtain its share 'of the business and will extend its line from fitites, Idaho, into that district. r ij j - S - a 1 i" r - , i " 11 ,v .viw : i :: h U 'J 1 H i v .-"-" 1; If " ' " , ' M l- Xk j j if . - -&. tL it t n ft , r , v . , - i-fm- ii.-" T 4 David Rose. .... 4 Road Fund Replenished by $45,564 From State. General Fund Also Depleted and Only Miracle Will Save Uin of Warrants. S though in answer to a prayer L from the road department, along came a little drart xor 4&,te4. irom Salem yesterday to County Treasurer J. M. Lewis, being Multnomah County's share of the state automobile tax. It saved the division or Roadmaster Teon from a warrant basis. The road section of the County Treasury was without funds and Mr. Lewis was pre paring to indorse warrants and pay per cent Interest on them until to county had money to redeem them. Only a like gift will save the county general fund from a warrant basis the first of February. Only a few thousand dollars are left In the general fund to meet the payroll of approximately 80.' 000. County employes will be paid by warrant until the collection or tne isi? tax levy begins. That should relieve the situation by March, at least. Most Portland banks will cash In dorsed county warrants, so that em ployes will no,t have to wait. Drunkenness Declines at Eugene. EUGENE. Or.. Jan. 22. (Special.)
