Portland's heaviest rainfall in a
24-hour period since November 6, 1903,
waa recorded at 8 o'clock yesterday
morning, when the gauge showed 3.06

however, a slight possibility that the

in Tacoma.
Special hourly river readings were
taken yesterday from points along
the upper Willamette in order to give
warning of flood danger. Water was
found highest at Salem and Jefferson,
the latter on the Santiam, both points
registering 13.4 feet. At Portland it
it was 9.4, but Mr. Wells says it will
continue to rise today until it reaches
about 12 feet, remaining nearly sta
tionary at that point until Wednesday
and falling thereafter. While the Wil

expected to cause any damage.

SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 26. (Spe
cial.) Continuance of the present
demoralized conditions in the dis
tribution of cars to the Pacific north
west will continue after the railroads j
are returned to their private ownere
if eastern carriers succeed in put
ting through their plans for a car
service commission and "fail to have
northwest representation on that
body, J. H. Bloedel, Seattle lumber
man, said today upon his return from
an eastern trip. The rumored plans
for this commission, Mr. Bloedel said,
call for its formation along lines
similar to the car service section of
the United States railroad adminis
tration. It would handle the dis
tribution of freight cars by agree
ment. This agreement, unless the
northwest is directly represented in
the proposed commission, doubtless
would not relieve the present seri
ous car shortage that Is threatening
to disrupt the vast lumber industry
of this section.
Railroad Men Seen.
Mr. Bloedel, while in the east, was
asked to represent the West Coast
Lumbermen's association in the car
shortage situation. At Chicago, with
Major E. G. Griggs, of Tacoma, he
saw R. H. Aishton. regional director
of the railroad administration for the
western division. In Washington, D.
C, by arrangement through Senator
Poindexter, he held a conference with
W. S. Kendall, chairman of the car
service section of the railroad administration.
Summed up by Mr. Bloedel, the car
shortage is due to two things: Pres
sure by the southern democracy to
get cars whether any other district
dos, and ignorance of the car serv
ice section of the needs of the north
est. This ignorance, he said.
is due to lack of representation of the
orthwest on the committee of sec-
ion which has direct chaage of dis
tribution.
So long as the government opera-
on of roads continues, conditions
can be no better. Air. Bloedel be-
ieves. Railroad administration af
fairs are in chaotic state.
Even the plan put forward by Mr,
Bloedel and Mr. Merrill to relieve the
orthwest situation met no ready re
sponse by Mr. .Kendall.
Retailers Back Move.
This plan was the old expedient
dopted by the veteran railroad man
ames J. Hill, It was to bill empties
train lots direct through to the
Pacific coast. Their arrival then
would be certain.
Two thousand retail lumber deal-
rs attending the Northwest Retail
Lumber Dealers' association conven-
ion in Minneapolis, visited by Mr.
Bloedel on his return trip, stand be
hind the Pacific northwest manu
facturers in their complaint and
stand just as powerless. The whole
cry of their convention, he said, was,
W e want lumber and we cannot
get it."
We recognize, said Mr. Bloedel,
speaking for the lumbermen before
Mr. Kendall, "that there is a gen
eral car shortage in the United
States. This is due to many reasons.
We have no complaint against not
receiving all the cars that we used
to receive, but we do complain
against the unfair discrimination in
he present method of distribution.
For the last three months of 1919 we
received but 30 per cent of our needed
supply of cars, or 2000 cars less than
we received for the same three
months of the year previous. And
this in spite of an increased lumber
production.
"But the south and the north are
not so affected. They have received
as much as 75 per cent of their needed
car supply. There is the injustice.
It is of that discrimination we com
plain.

Story of Pro-British. Tastes Denied
by Old Classmate, Who Tells

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
Jan. 26. (Special.) Dr. Henry D.
Sheldon, dean of the school of educa

lege mate of Herbert Hoover at Stan
ford in the middle '90s, rises to the
defense of Mr. Hoover from Senator
Reed's charge that he is pro-British
in tastes and sympathies.
When I was over in London in
May, 1912, during my tour of inspec
tion of the English .schools, I took
luncheon with Hoover. He had then
been over there about ten years, and
I had some idea that he might be
getting rather English in his waVs
and thoughts. So I got him to give
me his impressions of England and
the English. I found him instead
rather critical of English society and
politics. This is a bad place to
bring up children,' he said. "In this
undemocratic atmosphere there isn't
enough chance for individuality; it's
better for the youngsters to give and
take more knocks.' "
Lloyd George, he said, was about
the only man in public life who had
the welfare of the common people at
heart and who meant business. Lloyd
George at that time was chancellor
of the exchequer, engaged in his big
fight with the Lords over the budget
system.
Mr. Hoover, Dr. Sheldon said today,
was just as plain and simple and
democratic in his ways although he
was then very wealthy owing to his
connections as mining engineer with
wealthy British concerns. He later
lost most of this money.
Dr. Sheldon recalls many instances
indicating Hoover's democracy, effi
ciency and popularity at Stanford.

TODAY'S BEAUTY HINT
It is not necessary to shampoo your
hair so frequently if it is entirely
and properly cleansed each time by
the use of a really good shampoo. The
easiest to use and quickest drying
Fhampoo that we can recommend to
our readers is one that brings oat all
the natural beauty of the hair and
may be enjoyed at very little expense,
by dissolving a teaspoonful of can
throx which can be obtained from any
druggist, in a cup ot hot water. This
makes a full cup of shampoo liquid,
enough eo tt ia easy to apply It to
all the hair Instead of just to the to)
of the head. This, when rubbed into
the 6calp and onto every stratul of
hair, chemically dissolves all impuri
ties. It Is very soothing and cooling
in its action, as well as beneficial to
both ecalp and hair. After rinsins
out the lather so created, you will
find the scalp is fresh, clean and free
from dandruff, while the hair drica
quickly and evenly, developing: a
bright luster and a soft fluffines that
makes it seem very heavy. Adv.
