18 THE MORXIXG OKEGOXIAN, SATURDAY. JUXE .'50, 1917. BANKERS NAMED TO QUIZ CANDIDATES Committees for 37 Towns Are Chosen to Assist Army in Choice for Training Camp. CARE TO BE EXERCISED Instructions Are That Applicants Should Be Disqualified if Any Question of Leadership Is Raised in Board's Mind. The names of 37 subcommittees of bankers in as many towns of Oregon who will receive and pass on applica tions for the second Reserve Officers Training Camp, to be held at the Pre sidio, San Francisco, beginning Au gust 27, were announced last night by the state committee of the Military Training Camps Association. Members of the state committee, all of whom are Portland bankers, are: "William A. Mac Rae, president of the Portland Clearing-xxouse Association; Edward Cookingham, vice-president of Xadd & Tllton; A. L. Mills, president of the First National Bank, and J. C. Ainsworth, president of the United States National Bank. No applications should be made' to the state committee, nor should ap plicants appear before them. All ap plications must be made to various of the 37 subcommittees. One of these subcommittees has been named for Portland. Bankers Asked to Choose. The reason all the committees are ' composed of bankers is that the com manding general of the Western De partment, United States Army, to facilitate the selection of suitable men for the second training camp, asked bankers of the various towns, to assist the Government in picking the best qualified men. Together with the names of the members of the 37 subcommittees, the following official statement by Major Jens Bugge, United States Army, sta tioned at Vancouver Barracks, and de tailed as examining officer for Oregon, was given out: "From now on applications to the second training camp should be made through local committees. Men in places where there are no local com mittees may send their application to the examining officer at Vancouver Barracks, Vancouver, "Wash. "The age limits are 21 to 44 years, unless a man has been an officer for three years in the National Guard or regular Army, in which case the age limit is 50 years. The United States wants the 130 most desirable men as leaders from Oregon, irrespective of age, but where two men are equally desirable, the man over 31 years will be chosen. July IS Is Lait Date. Local committees must be prompt In acting on applications and forward ing them to the examining officer at Vancouver Barracks, Vancouver, Wash. Any application that cannot reach the examining officer before July 15 will have to be returned as submitted too late. "About 300 will be examined per sonally. Those who are so selected will be notified by personal letter be fore July 20 when and where to ap pear. Out of those examined 130, with 13 alternates, will be chosen for the camp, and the successful ones will be notified between the 7th and 10th of August." The following instructions sent to the local committees by authority of the Government, to regulate their pro cedure, should be studied carefully by all prospective applicants, as well as by members of the local committees: (a) Each committeeman must familiar ize himself with the contents of the of ficial Information bulletin, particularly par agraph "qualifications." (b) Request one or more local physicians of standing to volunteer their services for the physical examination of your applicants. The official application blank Includes the physician's certificate and instruct ioas for hie guidance. c When applicant Is unknown to the local committee, he may be required to se cure two letters of recommendation ; when application blank is forwarded to state committee, these letters should be attached. Age Must Be Given. d) Applicants must be examined before not less than three members of a committee, who shall, upon completion of examination, deliver to their chairman the applicant's papers, attaching thereto a "report slip" with their findings carefully noted thereon, and signed by all who conducted the ex amination. e) The name and age of the applicant must be written on the report slip attached to applicant's papers. This is important. (f ) In the consideration of applications special stress should be laid on leadership, standing in community, college education or its equivalent, and previous military train ing. Applicants over 31 years of age should be given a decided preference. Mature and experienced men are needed. A man under 32 years of age should not be recommended for examination unless he has nre-emlnent qualifications or thorough military training. g The Commanding General of the "Western Department directs that all ex voldiers of the United States Army, who ap pear before you as candidates, shall be recommended for examination unless notori ously unfit. Each Applicant Voted on. (h) An application must receive the vote of at least a majority of the committee to be reported "recommended" or "not recommended." otherwise application must be reported "disagreed." On all "disagreed" reports, each committeeman shall write vlearly before his name "yes" or "no," ac cording to his vote. (i) A candidate certified by examining physician as "unfitted" shall be reported "not reoomemnded for examination" and no tation of reason made on report slip. J Realize the responsibility placed upon you. and also the confidential nature of your work. The findings of your committee should be absolutely secret. k In towns eventually designated as point of call for examining board, local committee should provide suitable office pce for Army Examining Board. (1) Bear in mind that probably over 12. Xto men will apply. This means about one out of 12 making application will be se lected. Your tendency should, therefore, be rather to disqualify than to qualify an ap plicant. To the men you recommend will le entrusted the lives of hundreds. Ask yourself the question "Would I be willing to serve on the battlefield under the com mand of this man?" EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. Thirty-seven Committees Aamed.

RIVER CONTINUES FALL INLAND TEMPERATURES 11 DE GREES BELOW NORMAL. CTest of Freshet Believed to Have Passed, but Rivermen Wish for Faster Runout Inland temperatures took a decided downward drop yesterday, reports to the Weather Bureau last night show ing British Columbia and the eastern part of the district to be experiencing less than normal conditions. Walla Walla and Spokane being at least 11 degrees below normal. These condi tions will not bring much snow out of the highlands In melted form. The out look is for warmer weather today, but not a marked change. The Columbia River was down one tenth of a foot at Wenatchee yesterday and. while the Clearwater rose three tenths at Kamiah, cooler conditions of yesterday are expected to show the stream stationary there today. The downward tendency continues at Port land, the river falling about two-tenths of a foot a day and while it is felt there will be no higher water, rivermen are anxious that the runout be faster. The official river readings yesterday were: "9 as n coo Mr-? 2 : s a 40 40.0 0.1 5 12.3 0.3 22 14.2 0.1 25 21.9 0 40 37.4 0.2 10 4.8 0 20 5.2 0.1 20 4.5 0 12 4.0 0 15 22.5 0.2 Wenatchee Kamiah ...

Oregon and Washington Mills That Have Not Contributed to Post at American Lake Benefit. TACOMA, Wash.. June 29. (Special.) Orders for more than 5,000,000 feet of Douglas fir lumber, for immediate shipment to Des Moines. la., where it wil be used in the construction of the Army cantonment at that place, were received in Tacoma today by George S. Long and J. T. Gregory, represent ing the emergency fir lumber commit tee of the West Coast Lumbermen's Association. Sir. Long and Mr. Greg ory at once set to work distributing the orders to the mills in the Pacific Northwest. The orders for the Des Moines lum ber will be given to the mills in Ore gon and Northern Washington which have been unable to share in the dis tribution of orders for the American Lake Army Post lumber because of inability to make immediate delivery. The total amount of lumber needed at Des Moines will be about 10.000,000 feet. Tacoma mills are delivering large quantities of lumber to American Lake, which is being used in the construction of the first buildings of the new can tonment. Orders for more than 25,000, 000 feet of material for the lake post are yet to come. Deschutes War Board Organizes. BEND. Or., June 29. (Special.) Fol lowing receipt of instructions from Adjutant-General White, the Deschutes County war board organized today and began the work of preparing; tile rec ords foe the com ins dr&f-U OIL PRICE WORRIES Holders of Long-Time Trial Contracts Lucky. RAILWAY MUST PAY MORE Talk of Wood and Coal for River Steamers Is Rife and Port of Portland Is Inquiring About Alaskan Supply. Marine operators who entered Into long-time fuel-oil contracts when the market was low. some or which have more than a year to run now. are the envy of allies and competitors the waterfront, because the fuel oil companies have advanced the Quota tions to $1.55 a barrel, more than has been asked before In the history of the product on this coast. The latest advance of 10 cents a bar rel, made Thursday at San Francisco, is the second this month, and is taken the hardest by companies whose con tracts expire today. The O.-W. R. & N. Is one of the lines terminating its contract today, but "Captain" Budd. superintendent of the inland vessels of that flag, says they will continue to burn oil for at least six months, by which time It Is hoped the market will have weakened or some other fuel Is substituted. Labor Shortage Is "ered. Before the days of fuel oil "cord wood" was used, four-foot fir being purchased along the river, but that Is said to be out of the question now, be cause the price has advanced so as to make It prohibitive, unless steamboat lines establish their own yards, and then the labor supply Is such It Is re garded doubtful If cutters could be ob tained. Coal has not been burned on the river to any extent In the past, being used principally by ocean-going ves sels, except on the Snake River and Upper Columbia, and whether it will be utilized Instead of oil depends on the supply and price. Steamboatmen admit select slabwood might be burned, but if steamers turned to that classs of fuel they could not all ex pect to get large sticks, and the usual run of slabwood is regarded unfitted for the purpose. Dredges Burn Sawmill Refuse. Dredges of the Port of Portland and United States Engineers' fleets burn what is known as cut fuel, slabwood being cut in "hogs" so that It 1?. saw dust and small sticks, and thy are not affected by the oil advance. Added to expense in changing furnaces for the utilization of other fuel will be the employment of more firemen. One hope held out Is cheap coal from the Alaskan fields, once they are tapped by the Government railroad from Anchorage. The Port of Portland Com mission is considering the operation of a barge line to bring coal here from British Columbia for- the use of tramp steamers loading here. Should coal be adopted as fuel on the river It must be handled in im mense quantities. PITTSBURG BUILDERS HERE John Eichleay and Son View Plants Engaged in Big Ship Campaign. John Eichleay, Jr.. of Pittsburg, Pa., bead of a steel construction corpora tion bearing his name, and Harry O. Eichleay, his son. who Is second vice president and purchasing agent of the company, are in the city on a trip of pleasure and business, the latter hav ing much to do with inspection of shipyards. They have built small steel vessels for the Government in the past and expect to participate in the present maritime drive, having, in fact, volun tarily placed half of their plant ca pacity at the disposal of the authori ties. It Is assumed by them that cer tain construction, probably as to sub marines, torpedoboats and the like, will be parcelled out to different plants, each manufacturing certain Darts. which in turn will be assembled at a large Atlantic port and put together. The Supple & Ballin plant was inspect ed by them yesterday. NAVY INSPECTS WAR BARON Cunarder About Ready and Leaves for North Next Week. Shipbuilders and kindred waterfront connections were on the qui vlve yes terday, when it became known that a detail of Navy officers from the Brera erton Navy-yard, on Puget Sound, were making an inspection of the new Cun arder. War Baron, at the plant of the W illamette Iron & Steel Works. The purpose of the visit was not divulged. but the demand for tonnage for war purposes gave rise to the assumption that if the ship is not Impressed for service, it is aimed to know all details of capacity, speed and quarters with the expectation of taking over those not yet launched. The War Baron could leave port to day if necessary. Her safety valve was set yesterday by Lloyd s representative, and that puts the stamp of approval on the engine-room, the is to get away during the coming week for Puget Sound, and her official trial trip will be held en route. She is the first built by the Northwest Steel Company and Willamette Iron & Steel Works on Joint contract and they have seven others of the same class. MARGARET CASE UNFINISHED Federal Inspectors Reserve Decision Until Debris Is Cleared Away. No decision was announced follow ing an investigation yesterday by united States inspectors of bteam vessels Edwards and Wynn as to a lire that broke out aboard the auxiliary schooner Margaret a week ago today, when she was at sea on the way from Portland to China. The vessel Is in the harbor and her licensed officers and others of her crew were before the inspectors. One of the first theories as to the origin of the blaze, that it was due to defective wiring, is said not to be accepted by those on the ship, as an inspection of the wiring has shown it not to have been at fault. The acci dent is somewhat of a mystery, and further light may be thrown on It when the debris due to the fire is removed and a complete inspection of the plant and after part of the vessel is pos sible. HALF OF CARGO MAY BE SALVED Encouraging Report Received From Wrecked Steamer Sinaloa. MARSHFIELD. Or., June 29. (Spe cial.) The wrecked steamer Sinaloa, on the beach at Cape Blanco, will prob ably be salved, with half her cargo and her engine-room intact. The lat est reports from there indicate that 1200. togs X nitrates is etili dry ia the fore hold and the crew is staying with the vessel. Captain Sannaes has Inquired regard ing the disposition of the crew, of whom many are foreigners, of Customs Collector H. J. Kimball, who referred him to the San Francisco or Portland Federal officers. The wrecker, due Sunday in tow of the steam schooner Phoenix, Is the barge Avastine, the owning" company being unable to secure any large powered wrecker. The gas schooner Tramp, of Rogue River and Coos Bay, will tend the barge while she is at tempting the salving. Joseph Thebaud, who salved the steamer Sesostris. ashore on a Guate mala beach for 10 years, went to Port Orford today to look over tne wreck, and intends attempting the vessel's salving If others fail. SWIGERT PLANS NOT CLOSED Portlander Home After Strenuous Work in Interest of Builders. Charles F. Swlgert. of the Pacific Bridge Company, has returned home following an Eastern trip for the past few months, that brought him in close touch with the shipbuilding programme of the Government, in connection with which he has plans, but it was said last night that negotiations have not been consummated. While Mr. Swlgert planned his East ern journey In the interest of other business, his presence in Ohio at a time when the Portland Chamber of Commerce was striving to get before General Goethals the value and advan tages of Northwest timber and ship building plants, resulted in him being solicited to represent the Chamber at Washington. In that work he suc ceeded in advancing the claims of the Oregon district, and he persisted, until the demands of his own affairs necessi tated him leaving Washington. Mr. Swigert became indisposed after re turning and may remain at home for a few days. Marine Notes. Work of erecting a hotel and bunkhouses for men to be employed at the new ship building yard of Somarstrom Brothers, at Columbia City, was started yesterday. The Ilrm Is one of well-known Oakland contract ors and It is understood It is negotiating with the Government to build four wooden steamers. Andrew Mahoney and Harry Struthers, of the Emerald line, who reached here Tues day from the south, returned to San Fran cisco yesterday after having visited ship pers and others here. To load supplies for light stations on Puget Sound, the tender Heather arrived here yesterday. Additional Information from the scene of the wreck of the Norwegian steamer Elnaloa. at Cape Blanco, relative to her crew being discharged. Is that it has been de termined to pay off the men before the Norwegian Consul at San Francisco. Material Is being assembled on the Bast Side, between East Salmon and East Main streets, where the Pacific Marine Iron Works is to erect a boiler and engine plant. Small buildings have been started in prepa ration tor erecting the principal shops. Pacific Coast Shipping Notes. SAN FRANCISCO. June 29. rSnerlal.)
