EXPERIENCES ARE RECITED Blayor Baker Welcomes Visitors and Praises Determination of Ports to Enlarge racilities for Increased Trade Demands. Portland is on the right track In ad hering to heavy mill construction for docks, elevators and other water ter minal facilities. The port enjoys a leading advantage in that teredoes do not thrive, this being a fresh-water harbor, so the life of foundation ma terial is enhanced over that at other Pacific Coast ports. But one of the principal advantages held for wooden construction for docks as against concrete is that methods of cargo handling, storage and general water terminal business change as do other lines and much morfey is saved when alterations and additions must be made on wooden docks, while the in itial cost is much less than concrete. Coast Port Authorities Confer. That was only one of the score of things brought out in papers and dis cussions at the opening session yester day of the fourth annual convention of the Pacific Coast Association of Port Authorities. Delegates were as sembled from British Columbia to Kouthern California, while more will report today when themes will be closer to home with Oregon and. nearby "Washington harbors being represented. Not the least interesting of papers read were on bulk handling of wheat because Portland is deep in the work now of starting a 1,000,000-bushel ele vator at St. Johns, iseattle is Increas ing its elevator to 1,000,000 bushels and already it has been determined the best means of handling wheat for the grower or exporter who wishes to keep It separate is to charge him for full bin space, not in proportion to the spaco occupied by his consignment. The result has been to admit that all wheat of certain grades is about alike and only in special cases is separate storage demanded. Mayor Welcomes Visitors. Mayor Baker welcomed the harbor authorities in an assembly-room on the eighth floor of the Chamber of Com merce. He characterized the convention as among the most important he had had the pleasure of addressing, laying stress on the valuable work each com munity was doing in providing termi nal facilities, not alone caring for ex isting commerce and doing what was necessary in time of war, but in plan ning ahead for the increases that must be accommodated. C. B. Moores, chairman of the Port land Commission of Public Docks, is also president of the Coast association, and he replied on behalf of the dele gates. G. B. Hegardt, chief engineer of the Portland Commission, is secre tary of the association. Seattle Members Attend. Representing the Port of Seattle Commission were Judge C. K. Hems berg, who is secretary of that body: George F. Nicholson, chief engineer; Hamilton Higday, traffic manager; E. J. Foreman, assistant traffic manager, and C. A. Ewald. of the commission. C. M. Gordon, president of the Los An geles Board of Harbor Commissioners, was a delegate from there and San Francisco was represented by Frank G. White, chief engineer of the State Board of Harbor Commissioners. From Victoria, B. C, came C. H. Rust, chief engineer. Portlanders who were delegates were members of the Commission of Public Docks and from the Port of Portland Commission were Captain Archie Pease and George Kelly, while J. B. Ziegler was a. delegate appointed by the Coun cil. Colonel George A. Zinn, Corps of Engineers, U. S. A., In charge of im provement projects in the First "and Second Portland districts, was present, and L. B. Smith and Fred Strong rep resented the young men's committee, which evinces a deep interest in port affairs. Belt Lines Considered. In a paper on "The Belt Line Element of Port Terminals," Judge Remsberg Bet forth interesting details of Seattle's experience and following on "The State Belt Railroad of San Francisco," Mr. White gave interesting facts covering the same subject as gauged by experi ence in the south. Mr. Gordon, in a paper termed "Los Angeles' Solution of the Harbor Belt Line Railroad," told of legal steps taken to reclaim waterfront land at San Pedro. Mr. Higday had an interesting paper on "Bulk Handling of Wheat," and Mr. Nicholson on "The Trend of Modern Port Construction." In the latter pa per stress was laid Jon the use of heavy mill construction on docks and advan tages over concrete. G. Lansing Hurd, of the Department of Agriculture, one of the exper.ts sent to advise with farm ers as to the proper size of elevators, construction material, machinery, and the like, spoke of that work and the conditions found in the Northwest along the line or bulk handling- of wheat. LOG BREAKS WAPAMA'S WHEEL McCormicfe Flagship Prevented From Gaining Record by Mlshup. Just when Captain John Foldat.was figuring he would break the record of the McCormick ships between San Francisco and St. Helens, as the time from the Golden Gate to the Columbia was 49 hours, tho vessel struck a sub merged log off Westport that carried away one blade of the propeller. As a consequence the flagship was steamed to the St. Johns drydock yesterday and lifted for a new wheel, a spare one being carried on each ship of that fleet. As he had Just come off dry dock at San Francisco, where a new propeller was shipped, the breaking of the wheel was really hard luck. The vessel will be afloat today, and tails south Saturday. The.Celllo and "Willamette are also in port, so the line will be well represented in sailiags this week. LOCKS ORDERED DEEPENED Work at Oregon City to Proceed and Canal Will Close Six Weeks. Telegraphic orders reached Colonel George A. Zlnn, Corps of Engineers, II. S. A., yesterday from General Black, Chief of Engineers at Washington, to proceed with the deepening of the locks at Cregon City, so notice was given that tho locks will be closed September 19 for six weeks. The Yel low Stack line probably will keep one steamer above the locks ar.-l another below and transfer certain freight. In order not to delay navigation longer, tlian necessary it has been de elded to employ three shifts of men. The depth over the sill of tlie lower lock at present is 1.8 feet at low water, and the project cal's for si-.' feet, so, to complete all of the work, 15,000 cubic yards of rock must be removed. tiAST BIG RAFT TO GO OUT Benson Logging Company to Start 4 4 th for San Diego With Hercules. Under orders to take in tow the last cigar-shaped log raft the Benson Log ging Company will dispatch for San Diego this year, the tug Hercules ar rived in the river yesterday from the Golden Gate. The raft was shifted to Astoria in advance of the tug report ing, so there would be no delay in get ting under way. When that raft passes out it will be the 41th the Benson interests have sent from the Columbia River to the South ern California city. During the period covered no rafts have been lost and probably the most serious difficulty encountered in towing at sea was with the 42d raft, because towing chaine parted and a call had to be made at San Francisco to provide others. The 43d raft carried a deckload of shingles and she reported at her destination without having lost a single- one. At San Diego the rafts are broken up and the logs sawed into lumber. MASTER MECHAMO IS NAMED George Goodell to Leave Engineers' Association for McEaclicrn Plant. George T. Goodell, for the past few years secretary of the Portland chap ter of the Marine Engineers' Benevo lent Association, is to take up the tools of his trade again in an active way through his acceptance of the respon sible post of master mechanic of the McEachern Ship Company, which has a large plant on Young's Bay, at As toria. In entering the field Mr. Goodell really is returning to an old stamping ground, for he was born at Astoria and began his career there as a machinist, then the lure of the sea claimed him, and for years he operated on a deep watermen in the engine-room. Before accepting the secretaryship of the Ma rine Engineers' Benevolent Association he had the responsibility of keeping the steamer Golden Gate churning ahead, and E. "W. Wright, manager ot the McEachern yard, has decided he is the man to supervise machinery instal lation in about a dozen ships under contract there.

The hearing will start at 10 o'clock in the. morning in the Com mission's offices at the Courthouse in Portland. President Griffith informed Chairman Miller, of the Commission, that the employes of the company were urging an early hearing. He stated that the employes had reached a conclusion that the officers of the company were not pressing the necessity for an early hearing as they should, and that a strike was threatened unless the Com mission took prompt action. . Continuance la Provided. The Commission had almost reached the conclusion to let the hearing go over probably until next week, from the fact that possibly tne pudiic wouia not receive sufficient notice of the time and place. However, upon the representations or Mr. Griffith,, Chairman Miller stated that the hearing will go ahead with the understanding that if it develops at the hearing that anyone interested cannot be heard at that time and has bona fide reason to show why he could not be present, the hearing will be continued, probably into the follow ing week.

He declares that the curbing of the jitneys has caused an immense increase in the company s revenues. Oak Nolan. 204 McKay building. Port land, also filed a protest, declaring the commission has no Jurisdiction over the company's lines in the city limits; that the company's petition does not state facts sufficient to warrant an in crease and that the "Portland Railway, Light &. Power Company is guilty of such conduct as forever to be estopped from claiming tho right of such In crease." Pacific Coast Shipping Notes. ASTrraiA. Or.. Sent. 4. (Special.)
