13 TIIE MORNING OKEGONIAN, TTIUTiSDAY, JANUARY 29, 1920 STOPS SALE President to Decide as to Dis posal of Transports. ARMY WANTS RESERVE War Department Proposes to Keep Bout- as Troop Ships in Case of Another Emergency. WASHINGTON', Jan. 28. Action on bids for 30 of the former German lin ers seized in the United States was deferred today by the shipoing board as a result of a protest from Secre tary Baker against the sale of such of these vessels as have been includ ed by the -war department in its army transport reserve. Mr. Baker not only has protested to Chairman Payne with the request that the matter be presented to Pres ident Wilson, but has taken the ques ion up with the senate commerce com mittee, which now is undertaking to formulate a permanent policy to gov ern the American merchant marine. Chairman Payne, on receiving Mr. Baker's protest, promised that no ac tion would be taken until he could confer with the war department of ficials. It is understood that the question of the disposition of the vessels al ready has been placed before Pres ident Wilson for final decision. In his letter to Chairman Payne, the war secretary disclosed that the ship ping board, the navy department, the war department and the department of commerce had agreed, with the approval of President Wilson, upon a policy in connection with the former German ships which contemplated the building up of an army transport re serve. He said vessels released to the shipping board for the service in (Heated in the agreement were re leased "with the understanding that they are subject to immediate with drawal in case of emergency for use as transports." Twelve ships were specifically named in the agreement, six being allocated for the South American serv ice and six for the trans-Pacific service. Among the former German vessels ; for which preference in release for the interdepartmental agreement are the President Grant, the Mercury, the Powhatan, the Susquehanna, the Mad awaska and the Artemis. It was proposed to the interdepart mental conference that the foregoing named ships should be used by the shipping board for the trans-Pacific service and the war department re leased the vessels to the board with the understanding that they would be used in that traffic. IS TO START STEPS ARE TAKEX FOR EREC TION OF BUNKERS. Port Commission Completes Ar rangements for Project to Aid in Ship Loading. Arrangements have been made be tween the commission of public docks and the port of Portland commission for the immediate start of the work of dredging for the proposed pier 5 of the St. Johns terminal for the erec tion of bunkers, it was reported at Tuesday's meeting of the dock com mission by G. B. Hegardt, secretary and chief engineer. The bunkers, the erection of which is contemplated, will be for use in loading ships with coal or other sim ilar material handled in bulk. Counting on a stronger tone in the bond market next month, the com mission Tuesday voted to readver- tise for bids on an issue of $750,000 of harbor development bonds dated Feb ruary 2. Bids will be opened February 20. All bids received for this issue at a recent meeting were rejected be- cause they were too low. The funds derived from the sale of these bonds "will be used to finance construction work already under way in the harbor. " Ji ' The oronosition of an extension of the St. Johns streetcar line to the St. Johns terminal was brought up for discussion, but because of the hear ing before the public service commis sion scheduled for February 2, it was decided to defer action until after this "hearing. It has been agreed that if .-the P. R., L. & P. company cannot be induced to construct this extension the city, through the commission of public docks, will build the exten sion. Whether the extension will be operated by the city or the street railway company has not yet been decided.

The Endicott is expected to clear from Seattle Friday. Captain John Alwen was master of the steamer West Munham. one of the freighters in the Portland oriental service of- the Pacific Steam ship company. When this vessel re turned from her first trip to the far east last September, she touched first at Seattle to discharge part of her cargo. Several members of the crew left the vessel there and refused to continue on her to Portland. An un successful attempt was made by mem bers of the crew to libel the vessel at Seattle. After the West Munham reached Portland an investigation was started by the federal grand jury because of the death of several members of the crew in the orient because of al leged bad conditions on the vessels.

PORTLAND TO LOSE E I New Factory Will-Be Built at Oakland, Cal. SHIPPING LOSS RESULTS Copra-Lad en Schooners From South Seas to Be Diverted Here after to San. Francisco Bay. The Portland plant of the Palmollve company, recently destroyed by fire, is to be rebuilt at Oakland, Cal., and Portland is to lose the industry and ail its attendant commerce, according to the only interpretation that can be placed on telegraphic orders received by C. A. Painton. manager of the local plant, from the headquarters of the company in Milwaukee, Wis. The decision to move the Pacific coast factory of the company to Oak land has been made by the board of directors of the Palmolive company, according to Mr. Painton. and it is improbable that efforts of the Port land Chamber of Commerce to secure a change of heart on the part of the head office will bear any fruit. "E. S. Pierce, vice-president of the Palmolive company, made a trip to this coast recently." said Mr. Painton yesterday, and inspected factory sites offered here, on Puget sound and on ban i rancisco bay. o objection was made to the Portland site. The deel sion of the board of directors, based on Mr. Pierce's report, is due to the greater shipping facilities offered on the bay, and the fact that that region Is more centrally located on the coast. "The business of the company has grown so lately that ship connections by regular service with the Atlantic coast, Australia and the South Pacific are essential, as well as with the orient. San Francisco has the coast to-coast line which Portland has not. as well as more frequent and regular service to the rest of the world.' The new plant to be erected at Oakland. Mr. Painton said, will cost about $350,000 for the building and $150,000 more for the machinery. It will have a capacity of 100 tons per day, a little more than twice the capacity of the plant burned at Port land. The loss of the Palmolive plant will be a serious blow to lumber exporters here, as the sailing vessels bringing copra to Portland have always taken lumber to Australia as return car goes. Through several years the copra trade has brought an average of two vessels a month to Portland. ' The copra cargo of the schooner Charles F, Crocker, now somewhere n the Pacific destined for Portland. has already been resold, according to Mr. Painton, and will be trans-shipped soon as it arrives here, and sent east by rail. From present indica- ons, the Charles F. Crocker will be the last copra ship to come to Port- and. Pacific Coast Shipping Notes. ASTORIA. Or.. Jan. 28.

"Free from serious damage" means that any damage from the causes mentioned can be removed by the ordinary processes of paring without Increase In waste of more than 10 per cent by weight over that ' which would occur If the potato were perfect. "Soft rot" means a soft, mushy condition of ths tissues, from whatever cause. TRADE IX FEED GRAINS SLACK Idaho Farmers Reported to Be Res red ing Wheat.
