"I cannot but be enthusiastic over the prospects for Portland and other Pacific Coast cities. Your resources and opportunities are so manifest that the future la enticingly rosy.

He expatiated on the manifold advantages of the lustiest twin of the celebrated Mm aesota children, of its desirability as a place of residence, and. above all. of tta sane and constructive loyalty under the test of war. He spoke of the con servation order of the Federal Fuel Administration, which struck Min aeapolla full force. "My :atory la shut down, aa are all others." said Mr. Ovensblre. "but I am content with the order.

Caswtaatlaopl la Protected. The two Turkish vessels also have formed a strong protection for Constan tinople from British submarine attacks. Several timea British undersea boats penetrated the Dardanelles and Sea of Harmon to Constantinople, but were unable to bombard the city be cause of the protection given by the ex German cruisers. The latest account of the Sultan Yawus Selim was In July of last year, when the British Admiralty reported that British airmen had dropped bombs on the vessel during an air atiacn on the Turkish fleet off Constantinople In the Golden Horn. Direct hits were observed on the Sultan Yawus Selim and other vessels, aboard which ex plosiona occurred and fires broke out. The Admiralty report said the for mer German cruiser was the center of the attack and that it was safe to pre sume, she would be out of action lor several months as a result of her In juries. The prediction proved true, aa the Sultan Yawus Selim since then has not been mentioned in any of the reports as being engaged. The last account of the Midullu was In June, 117. when the Turkish' War Office reported that vessel In a success ful engagement, together with other Turkish units, in the Black Sea against Russian land positiona and small war craft.
