55000 EACH IS PI
TO GET DID OF ILLS
Cost of Clearing Ways Wood
en Shipyards $170,000.
CONTRACT NOW SIGNED
Bodgers Shipbuilding Company of
Astoria Undertakes Job of Dis
posing of Uncompleted Vessels.
George P. Kodgers. president of the
George F. Rodgers Shipbuilding com
pany of Astoria, accor.ng to the
terms of the contract entered into
by him and tne emergency fleet cor
poration, is not a purchaser of wood
en hulls, but is on the contrary a
destroyer of hulls. .
The emergency fleet corporation is
to pay Mr. Rodgers $5000 for re
moving from the ways, selling, sink
ing, burning- or otherwise disposing
of each of 34 unfinished wooden
hulls for which the emergency fleet
contracts were cancelled when the
armistice was signed. In addition to
receiving all these hulls free of
charge. Mr. Rodgers receives also
the $5000 compensation for his time,
trouble and expense in taking each
hull off the ways and out of the
way."
The principal feature of the
transaction lies in t'.e fact that the
United States shipping board, emer
gency fleet corporation, after spend
ing many thousands of dollars for the
partial erection of these hulls, is
now obliged to pay more thousands
for their destruction.
Mr. Rodgers' first experience in this
phase of wood shipbuilding operations
came when two unfinished hulls on
the ways in his- own yard at As
toria interfered with the proposed
erection of a new dock by the port
of Astoria. In this case, the hulls
were merely completed to such an
extent that they would float and
were then launched and beached to
die a natural death.
Disposition la Optional.
What disposition will be made of
the 34 hulls throughout the country
that Mr. Rodgers has contracted to
remove, has not been learned here,
and is optional with Mr. Rodi?rs. As
$75,000 has been set by the shipping
board as the standard price .of a
wooden hull afloat, it is probable
that most of the unfinished hulls
which are 50 per cent or more com
plete, will be finished and sold. In
this case Mr. Rodgers will have the
difference between the cost of com
pletion and launching and the sum
of the purchase price and $5000 as
his net profit on the venture. In
cases where the hull is only well
started, the cost of destroying it will
be considerably in excess of the $5000
which the emergency fleet corpora
tion will pay him for the Job. Mr.
Rodgers has calculated, however, that
enough profit can be derived from
the compeltlon and sale of these
abandoned hulls to more than com
pensate for the cost of destroying
those which are not saleable.
No One Wished to Bay.
It was recently announced in the
Portland offices of the emergency
fleet corporation that offers would
be entertained for the purchase by
private interests of any unfinished
wood hull in the United States for
which the construction contract had
been canceled. It was understood at
that time that any offer made would
be accepted.
It was necessary for the comple
tion of the government programme
that these unfinished hulls, as well
as tJiose afloat, should be disposed
of in order to clear the slate and re
turn the shipbuilding yards to the
condition in which they were before
they were taken over by the shipping
board.
When no prospective purchasers of
these unfinished hulls appeared, the
emergency fleet corporation entered
into negotiations with Mr. Rodgers,
which resulted in the signing of
his contract for their removal from
the yards.

NEW SUGAR PRICl
AT RECORD MARK
Wholesale Quotation of 15.90
Cents on Cane Granulated.
RISE OF 6.13 OVER OLD CROP
Price Will Apply on First Shipment
of Xew Cane to Arrive De
clines Are Expected.
New crop cane granulated sugar prices
were announced by coast refiners yester
day morning and later In the day local
Jobbers fixed the Portland wholesale
price at 15.90 cents a pound. This quota
tion Is In line with the expectation of the
trade and Is an advance of 6.13 cents
over the old crop price.
Stocks of old crop sugar ln Jobbers'
hands are cleaned up and the new quota
tions will apply on the first shipments of
new sugar to arrive. It is understood
that a shipment Is due today.
Jobbers place the responsibility for the
high price of sugar, the highest ever
known, on the president's action In re
fusing to sanction the further purchase of
Cuban sugar. Stocks in the United States
ran short and Cuban planters were quick
to take advantage of the fact and raised
the selling price of Cuban raws to un
heard, of figures.
It Is believed and hoped that the open
ing price will also represent the highest
price of the new season. There Is no
certainty how long the present price will
be maintained, but when a change comes
It will doubtless be a decline. The peak
of sugar production will be in March and
by that time there Is a prospect that
sugar will be selling at a lower level. If
domestic consumption is curtailed by the
abnormally high price, this will be an
added factor in weakening the market as
the season advances.
EAST DOES NOT WANT W HEAT
Mill Temporarily Out of Market for
Northwestern Grain.
In the grain market, almost entire stag
nation rules at present. There is a lack
of inquiry from the east for wheat, be
cause of Mr. Barnes' statement that the
grain corporation will buy no more flour
from mills.
There waa a lack of interest In coarse
grains at the Merchants' Exchange ses
sion. Corn bids were reduced 25 cents,
clipped oats were down 2550 cents and
sacked oats were unchanged to 50 cents
lower. There were no bids on north
western or eastern barley.
The San Francisco barley market was
steady and eastern barley options were
cents lower.
Chicago reported stocks of contract corn
in public elevators at 232,000 bushels, or
80O0 bushels lens than a week ago; oats,
1,039,000 bushels, a decrease of 72.000
bushels.
Weather conditions In the middle west,
as wired from Chicago: "Northern Illi
nois Vnd elsewhere ctear and cold. Fore
cast: Generally fair tonight and Wednes
day, snow and a little colder in Minne
sota, Iowa, North and South Dakota and
Wisconsin."
Terminal receipts. In cars, were reported
by the Merchants' Exchange as follows:

EUROPEAN WHEAT CROPS FAVORED
Mild Weather Helps Growth of New
Grains Additional Sowings.
Improvement . In foreign grain crop
prospects are noted in Broomball's cable,
which follows:
Western southern Europe Generally
mild weather has favored the growth of
the new grains and the crops have a
good appearance.
Germany and Roumanla Weather has
been mild and generally favorable and the
growth of the new crop has been fur
thered as a result. Additional sowings of
wheat were made but the acreage Is still
short.
Russia Authoritative report says of
ficials in this country appear more dis
posed to facilitate exports against im
ports, but .that Incompetence and bribery
are still rampant.
North Africa Beneficial rains have
fallen in many sections.
Australia Further good rains have been
predicted, but no further export sales of
wheat will be made until prospects for
the new crop are ascertainable.
India Agricultural outlook and the new
seedlngs of wheat are mostly favorable.

"Flour prices continue firm with spring
wheat patents 15 cents higher than a week
ago and still the demand is active. Wheat
prices continue to advance and good mill
ing wheat is hard to get. The car shortage,
la very serious at many points and mills
are having trouble in shipping flour. The
exceptionally heavy demand Indicates buy
ers ek not expect lower prices for some
time.
"The advice given 0y the wheat director

ket so far has not been pronounced."
