DELAY OF DBYDOGK"
CONSTRUCnOHHSKED
Port of Portland Says Armi
. stice Removes Need.
RESOLUTIONS ARE ADOPTED
Tresent Drydock Declared to Bo of
Sufficient Capacity to Care
for All Jeeds.
Resolutions urglne that construction
of the proposed $1,000,000 drydoclt be
at this time delayed were adopted at
a special meeting yesterday ol the
Port of Portland Commission. The
resolutions will be forwarded today to
the Dock Commission, under whose su
pervision the proposed Urydock is to
be built.
Members of the Port of Portland
Commission expressed belief that In
view of changed conditions, brought
about by the close of the war, there
is no immediate, need for a new dry
dock in the local port. The present
drydock. It was asserted, is of suffi
cient capacity to take care of all pres
ent needs. It was likewise brought
out that thj Port of stori . is to start
construction of a new drydock, which
will help meet the needs of Portland.
The first work on the immediate
dredging programme was agreed upon
when the commission voted to make
a fill of approximately 250,000 yards
on the site of the new rolling mill of
the Pacific Coast Steel Company, near
"Willbridge. The work is to be done
for the Grant Smith Company, which
lias agrrted to pay dredge charges of
S600 a day in addition to tne increased
Cost of fuel oil.
Secretary Doyle was authorized .to
procure additional dredging equipment
for the completion of the dredging
work at the Albina dock. The two
dredses which have worked on thi
project were net able to cope with the
rock formation which was struck at
that point. i

Inland Empire Strikes Submerged
Snag and Is Damaged.
KELSO, Wash.. Jan. 17. (Special.)
The steamer Inland Empire was badly
damaged and sunk in the Cowlitz

merged snag. The accident occurred
near the Huntington place, about two
miles below town, as the craft was
proceeding down stream to get a tow.
A hole 40 feet long was torn in the
hull and the craft is now lying on the
bottom with several feet of water in
her hull. The engines are clear of the
water except at extreme high tide. An
examination of the hull Is now in prog

SAX FRANCISCO, Jan. 17. (Special.)
The Alaska packers' bark Star of Iceland
arrivod from Honolulu today after making
a record that probably will stand for a long
time. Only 12 t days were consumed In the
passage and three of the days were so de
ficient in wind that there was no progress.
luring all of the other days the vessel
longed more than 00 knots, 'the best day's
run being 263 knots. Entering three days of
strong wind several of the sails were blown
away.
The Iceland was manned by a regular
crew, but carried In addition a large num
ber of apprentice seamen. There were 75
of these when the vessel left this port, but
19 of the lads elected to ask fur their pay
at Honolulu and did not return. According
to "fairy tales" sent front 'the island port a
few weeks ago, these boys had goirb on
strike and complained tiiat the. food was
not good enough for hungry young Ameri
cans. Twelve of the strikers are at Hono
lulu and six have shipped on other vessels.
The officers and boys agreed today that all
of the difficulty resulted from that fact
that when the vessel sailed from San Fran
cisco the two cooks consisted of a pair of
graduates from the cooking division of the
local training bureau, who could not master
the real art of preparing food aboard ship.
A change was made at Honolulu, two old
time sea cooks taking charge, and there
after the apprentice fared so well that the
cooks had to work overtime.
The Pacific Steamship Company's Queen
arrived from Seattle today 12 hours be
hind time. This resulted from the severe
gale from the southeast. The ship was
shaken a bit, but there was no material
damage to report.
The Standard Oil tanker E. L. Crake ar
rived from New York today and Is now at
the Union Iron Works. The big tanker has
been on the East coast for nearly two years

the Atlantic. Many of the tankers have
been released and will now return to their
former work of. transporting oils across the.
Pacific. The Drake, under command of
Captain Sorley. will be overhauled and put
Into first-class condition.
The collier Mars, Captain Smith, arrived
from San Diego today with the barge Chal

GOVERXMEXT ACTIOX AWAITED
Conversion of Foundation Plant for
Steel Building TTncertaln.
Whether the Foundation Company's
wooden shipbuilding yard3 in Portland
will be converted for the building of
steel vessels on foreign contracts, as
has been contemplated by the man
agers for some time past, still Is un
certain, according to Bayley Hipkins,
head of the Foundation Company on the
Pacific Coast. Mr. Hipkins left Port
land for Seattle yesterday afternoon.
The Foundation Company, according
to Mr. Hipkins, has representatives in
France in the interest of getting con
tracts for steel vessels from the French
government, but nothing definite can
be done along "this line owing to the
fact that the United States Government
has not given permission to the
company to accept foreign contracts.
In the event that the United States
Government should grant such permis
sion, said Mr. Hipkins yesterday, it is
probable the contracts will be obtained
and tho yards here converted.

WORLD
'S FATE TO BE
DECIDED- IN SECRET
Sly European Diplomats Bar
Press From Peace Parley.
FRENCH PRESS IS BLAMED
Correspondent Points Oat That
Peace Situation Is in State
of Oriental Obfuscatlon.
BY JAMES M. TUOHT.
(Copyright by the New York World.
Pub-
lisbed by arranjtment)
PARIS, Jan. 17. (Special Cable.)
The Congress of Vienna which had
been held up as a warning, has become
a model for the peace conference.
If any doubt existed as to the origin
of the transformation from the Intent
to have "open covenants, openly ar
rived at" to provisions for "secret con
clave" it is removed by the attitude of
the French press, which must shoulder
a good share of responsibility for the
change.
The affair does not concern the
French press greatly. It fails to ap
preciate that decision for closure
would bring on a political crisis in the
English-speaking countries. Reaction
ary papers like the Figaro and the
Gaulois accept the decision as a
natural and proper one, arguing that
it is the only way to conduct diplomatic
proceedings.
World Censorship Demanded.
The Gaulois calls strenuously for an
international censorship of all dis
patches. Including those to America
and Great Britain. "Good diplomacy is
impossible on the public streets" it
says.
The Figaro humbly hopes that the
communiques will mention the prob
lems presented at each session, and
that permission may be given to com
ment on them.
Le Petit Parisien. associated with
Foreign Minister Pichon, makes no
comment on the secrecy order, while
L'Homme Libre, founded by Premier
Clemenceau, protests against war cen
sorship as the most important Item in
the new decree.
"Of course," it blandly adds. "the
plenipotentiaries have engaged them
selves to reveal nothing of the de
bates." The Journal asks: "How lonsr will
this decree hold? One may be permit
ted to be a little skeptical. The result
will be that rumor will . supply the
place of information and gossip can
always brave the censorship."
' Ii'Iicho .Backs Secrecy.
An article in L'Echo de Paris natur.
uHy supports tne reactionary measure.
It comments on the freedom from the
censorship in America and Britain and
says it can understand that condition
as furnishing ground for supposed
grievance but it sees no reason for ex
emption from the rule under present
conditions.
Some of the papers Justify the rule
by pointing out the danger of "giving
information to the enemy concerning
our disagreements."
They are unable to see that the
secrecy rule is the most important, the
most significant and the most danger
ous piece of information that could
possibly be given to the enemv. jt
Matin makes no comment whatever.
but the Independent L'Ouvre rioiir-
nantlj- declares:
'The conference of the Oual d'Orsav
Is to be rigorously secret. Those who
won the war have no need to know
how peace is to be made."
Perhaps something mav vet mmo
from abroad to open the eyes of the
peace conference and its defenders to
the magnitude of its gross error and
o the possibility that the moot serious
consequences may have been invited.
The peace situation here, which has
been steadily slipping into a state of
Oriental obfuscation, needs some such
spur to put it again on a sensible and
tnterliglble basis.
