A. M. SCOTT GIVES VIEW WATERFRONT HAS HOLIDAY VESSELS ARE TIED UP AMI CREWS EXJOT DINNERS. Pacific Steamship Company Pre sents Every Employe With Tur key; Managers Remembered. Tlie spirit of Christmas took charge of the Portland waterfront yesterday and brought business to a standstill as effectually, though more pleas antly, than the cold spell and snow storm did a short time ago. Not a vessel moved in the harbor during the daylight hours, and offices of all shipping companies were closed. Real Christmas dinners, with tur keys and all the trimmings, were served to the crews of all the steam ers in port, and this celebration amounted to the feeding of full crews of five big steamers by the Pacific Steamship company. Every employe of this company, from the office boy to the agent, received a turkey Wednesday to take home for dinner yesterday. The steamer City of Topeka. which left here Wednesday and celebrated yesterdav at North Bend and Marsh - field, went out of this port with Christmas trees lashed to the mast heads, and other vessels were arrayed in greens and streamers. In the offices of the emergency fleet corporation Christmas was ob served Wednesday. C. O. Yoakum district manager of the sales and supply division, was the recipient of huge bunch of flowers from mem bers of his office force. The wood ship construction division had a Christmas tree Wednesday afternoon, and presents, hitting at the pet foibles of each member of the force, were distributed. L. J. Wentworth, district manager, received a model wood ship, "with the compliments of the Seattle dis trict." J. W. Hall, assistant man ager, received a lo-cent watch to en able him to tell shipbuilders when their contract time had expired. Cap tain J. II. Piltz, noted for his opera tions against the "wobblies," received candy six-shooter. C. L. Reed of the drafting room, who has recently become a father, was presented with nursing bottle. Other gifts were in the same vein. Completion of Emergency Board Ships Must Be Awaited, Says Aid to Max it. Houser. Though the control by the United States grain corporation of the ex port movement of wheat and flour ended December 15, no effect of this passing of control has yet been felt in the commerce of Portland, and probably will not be felt, according to A. M. Scott, executive assistant to Max H. Houser, vice-president of the grain corporation, until the last of the emergency fleet vessels built here has sailed for New York and Europe with a cargo of flour. Remaining flour carriers for De cember are the steamers Diablo and Manham, both now loading at Port land. It is a significant fact that neither of these vessels was built here. The Diablo came here from San Francisco and the Manham from Seattle. If ships are to be sent here from other Pacific ports In this man ner to take cargoes from Portland, the control of the grain .corporation over flour shipments will continue to be felt until the last of the ship ping board vessels has sailed from this coast. January Snlllntrs Slaated. Sailings scheduled for January in clude the steamer Siletz, which is now undergoing repairs and will be ready for loading again within a week, the West Hassayampa, being outfitted by the Columbia River Shipbuilding corporation for Decem ber delivery, and the steamers Aber- :os and Fawlet awaiting launching in the Vancouver yard of the G. M. Standlfer Construction corporation. With the sailing of these vessels. but one shipping board vessel will remain for Portland loading, the steamer Bearport, the last of the ten steel ships contracted for bj the government from the Standlfer com pany. The Bearport will probably be delivered some time in February. Rise In Kates Gipeetrd. Under an arrangement between the two government concerns, the fleet comporation and the grain corpora tion, flour has been carried from this coast to New York at a much lower rate than that which can be offered by private operators. It is considered duobtful that the fleet corporation will continue this low rate after the building programme on the Pacific coast has been completed. The low rate was made by the fleet corpora tion to aid in the movement of steel vessels from this coast to the At lantic, where they are said to be urgently needed for the movement of food to Europe. An entirely dif ferent situation will confront the shipping board when vesesls must be sent from the Atlantic to load here, and It has been expected that the old low rate will no longer apply under these conditions.
