Eddy corporation and the Skinner &
Kddy Shipbuilding; company, ifluis j.
Titus of San Francisco, hitherto east-
ern representative of the Seattle con
r.m, of which he was a vice-presi
dent and director, today announced
his resignation of connection with the
firms.
Titus was recently nominated by
President Wilson as a member or tne
United States shipping board to fill
the vacancy created by the resigna
tion of Henry M. Robinson, and the
teleirram severing his connection witn
the Seattle shipbuilding corporations
and their affiliated interests is be

Titus to accept the shipping board
post.
Marshfield Due to Sail.
The wood steamer Marshfield. load
ing flour for the grain corporation
at Irving dock, is expected to com
rlete her cargo and sail today for
New York or Europe. The sailing of
the Marshfield will leave the local
harbor devoid of flour carriers for the
first time in several months. By a
coincidence, and due to the alteration
of schedules, the Oil tankers calling
regularly at this port and the oriental
freighters are all absent also, and the
only vessels loading in the river be
tween the Inman-Poulsen mill and
Astoria are all taking cargoes of
lumber.
LETTER WRITTEX TO GIRL
WHOSE ROOM WAS ROBBED
Resident or Martha Washlngon Ho
tel Recipient or Epistle Signed
"Porch-Cliinbing Harry."
It was apparently a thief with a
sense of humor which raided the
Martha Washington ' hotel Friday
night, taking a Baby Ben clock and
a ring from the room of Miss Myrtle
Smith and a ciieck for S15 from that
of Miss Nora Scheusner, judging from
the letter Signed by "Porch Climb
ing Harry," which was received by
Miss Smith yesterday. The letter
declares:
"My dear Miss Smith I was very
sorry that you were not at home yes
terday when I called, but I feel sure
that you would not deny me the
clock and ring. But I must say thilt
of the two the ring in the clock
is best.
"You see now I will be able to arise
early enough every morning to hold
the job that I now have' and that
will enable me to save up for our
little bungalow. Hoping that you will
always be true and faithful to me
as I am to you I am forever yours."
Inspectors Vv right and Gordon are
working on the case in the effort to
learn the identity of "Porch-Climbing
Harry."
BISHOP RAPS ISOLATION
Shipping Board Steamer Pnt in
Service of Pacific Steam
ship Company.
The shipping board steamer Wawa
lona, which recently took a full cargo
of lumber from Portland to the orient.
and sailed from Yokohama February
4 on her return trip to this port, was
yesterday assigned by C. D. Kennedy,
agent of the operations division of
the emergency fleet corporation, for
continuous service between Portland
and Japan in tlja service of the Pa
cific Steamship company.
In spite of the present demand for
more tonnage on this coast to handle
shipments to the far east, it had
been prophesied by shipping men that
the Wawalona, on returning from her
present voyage, would be turned over
to the food administration to carry
flour to the Atlantic, and thus lost
to the Pacific coast ser- ce. The al
location of an extra steamer to ply
between Portland and Japan will, it
is agreed by steamship operators, do
much to relieve the congestion nere.
The Wawalona is expected to ar
rivo at Portland about February 24,
and is scheduled to sail again with
general cargo for Kobe March 9.

League of Nations Favored in Ad
dress at Chamber of Com
merce Meeting.
That isolation has long since been
impossible for the United States, and
that some understanding between the
enlightened nations of-the world must
be reached which will prevent an
other such horror to the world as that
of the late world war, was the decla
ration of Bishop Matt S. Hughes, head
of the Methodist Episcopal church in
Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Alas
ka, in speaking at the members'
forum of the Portland Chamber of
Commerce yesterday noon. Bishop
Hughes' topic was, "The New Interna
tionalism."
The policy of isolation, as outlined
by lieorge Washington in his ture-
well address, was alright for the
young and struggling nation, the
speaker declared, but at the present
time, when America has become the
richest and most powerful nation on
earth such a policy is not possible
even if it were desirable. The ex
pansion of American dominion by
taking control of the Phillipines,
Hawaii and other islands-. construe'
tion of the Panama canal and other
expansion of tree past has made isola
tion impossible, he said.
To follow our traditional policy
now, even If it were possible, would
be not only cowardly, but criminal.
the speaker said. "If out of this war
there comes a league of nations, not
necessarily the league, which will
make it forever impossible for a small
group of men to cali millions of men
under arms to stain the fields with
their blood, then the sacrifices which
our boys made in France will not have
been in vain."
N. J. Upham, president of the In
ternational Realty associates, who is
in Portland on a short business visit
in connection with the organization's
properties in this section, was also
called upon and made a brief talk.

Twenty of the i0 steamships being- con
structed in Japan for account of the United
States shipping board have been completed
and have either been delivered on this
coast or are en route, according to advices
received today from Tokio. It has also
been announced that the special commis
sion having charge of the construction for
the shipping board will soon have con
cluded its work. The advices stated that
the government is not losing $0(MX0 on
each vessel built in Japan on account of
the wooden tubs and lockers that were In
stalled in the orient. It was explained
the expense of installing standard equip
ment in this country has been cared lor by
the builders through an arrangement made
between them and the commission, the
wooden fixtures being only a temporary
makeshift.
Lrfcal launch men are experimenting with
kerosene as a substitute for gasoline or
distillate, it was announced by officials of
launch and lighterage concerns here. It
was said- a simple system of heating the
fuel by a botwater coil bad been provided
and the small boats have operated even
better than with distillate. If the ex
periment continues to prove efficient dur
ing the next few days the method will be
installed on the entire local fleet. This i
means a considerable saving .In the cost j
of operation, it is said.
The Kusstan volunteer neet steamship
Kogaay, captain 31. uoraaneii, which was

port of the death of Admiral Kolchak was
received, will leave ior .Seattle in a few
days, it was announced today. The com
pany operating this vessel has decided it
will not be safe to dispatch the craft to
the Siberian port until matters become
more settled. It has been decided to send
(he steamer to Seattle and she will remain
there until normal conditions of govern
ment obtain in bioeria.
Sixty-five persons who have purchased

the deal had been closed, it was said. All
of the vessels of the company scheduled to

SALEM, Or Feb. 16. (Special.)
Because of the increased business in
the inheritance tax department of the
state treasurer's office, R. A. Reld of
Portland today was appointed special
inheritance tax auditor and will have
charge jot all Multnomah county
estates. Mr. Reid formerly was dep
uty clerk of Multnomah county.
Estates aggregating more than
$15,000,000, the larger part of which
are in Multnomah county, are now
under investigation by the inheritance
tax department. State Treasurer Hoff
says the addition of Mr. Reid to his
staff of employes is justified because
of the marked increase in the rev
enues of his office due to a district
investigation of all estates subject to
the payment of inheritance tax.

Aiarcn promises to be a busy nTfmth on
Puget sound and the Columbia river In the
way of shipping lumber. Announcement
has been made that 3S.OO0.0OO feet of lum
ber will be sent foreign during March
By decision of the Multnomah coun
ty commissioners yesterday morning
the one-story stone and marble build
ing to be erected in the light well at
the courthouse to accommodate county
offices which are outgrowing their
present quarters will cost nearer
$100,000 than the $65,512 estimated on
original plans.
First plans, drawn by "Whitehouse
& Fouilhoux, architects, called for a
single-story structure, without base
ment, containing record rooms and
offices. It was to be located in the
center of the light well with about
six feet clearance on every side from
the main building of the courthouse?
Yesterday the commissioners decided
to add a basement, containing vaults,
and a restroom for women, and to
join the west side of the structure to
the courthouse proper, giving addi
tional room to the quarters held nec
essary by the county clerk.
Excavation and construction work
on the basement will cost the county
at least 927,000, estimated Architect
Whitehouse, and connecting the build
ing with the main structure will bring
the cost up to approximately $100,000.
Commissioners Hovt. Holman and
Muck were agreed that a well- j
equipped restroom for feminine em-
nloyes at the courthouse was a neces
sity, and Commissioner Hoyt was in
favor of having a woman attendant
on duty there during the day.
The present courthouse basement
contains a vault originally intended
for the storage of valuable records.
f-but it has been found useless because
there is no provision for ventilation,
and records stored there would soon
fall a victim to dry rot and crumble
away. ew vaults would provide ade
quate ventilation.

Broken Down From Overwork
He Takes Tanlac and Now
Feels Splendid.
1 have actually trained fwelra
pounds by taking Tanlac. and thla
atrlkca ma as being; remarkabla. ca.
peclally for one of my asro. as 1 am
now 73 years old." said C. 1. Lock.
4619 Korty-scvenlh street aoutheast,
Portland. t)r., contractor and builder,
white telling of his experience wllh
Tanlac.
"L'p to) two years ago, Mr. Ixcke
continued. 'l was very vigorous, but
at that time I was on a ranch In
California, and I worked so hard I
overtaxed my strength and became
very badly run down. I lost my ap
petite until I finally got to where I
just had to force down every mouth
ful I ate. Nothing tasted good, and
what I managed to eat did not seem
to do me a particle of good and 1
gradually grew weaker and weaker
and felt tired and worn-out all the
time. 1 nearly always had a pain In
the small of my back, which caused
me to think there was something
wrong with my kidneys. I never could
sleep well, waking up a dosen or
more times during the night, and 1
always got up In the morning feeling
worse th -x when I went to bed. My
circulation was poor and my hands
looked pale and were so numb all the
time they felt like a piece of wood.
In fact, my whole body Juat felt cold
and chilled all the time.
"I had heard so much praise of
Tanlac 1 decided to give It a trial,
and to my surprise I began to feel
better al.nost as soon as I started
taking It. I say I was surprised be
cause I had taken so many different
treatments and medicines without
getting any benefit I had about lost
faith In everything. Well, I continued
taking It until now I have a splendid
appetite and everything I eat tastes
good and gives me strength. I sleep
well at night and always get up In
the morning feeling greatly rested.
My circulation Is all right again and
I am entirely rid of that cold, chilly
feeling ..nd the numbness has en
tirely left my hands. I feel better
In every way than I have In years,
and I owe It all to Tanlac."
Tanlac Is sold in Portland by the
Owl Drug Co. Adv.

Chemist Wells. "Even fruit or vege
tables put up by the housewife may
contain .this poisoning. As soon as a
jar or can of any food is opened, if
it has the least 'queer smell it should
