FOR TRAFFIC BUREAU
New
Position Created
Joint Commission.
by
H. L HUDSON GETS OFFICE
resolution Adopted by Conference
Calls for Expenditure of "ot More
Than $100,000 Annually.
The immediate establishment of a
traffic bureau by the Port of Port
land commission and the commission
of public docks and the appointment
of it. Hudson, now manager of the
East Waterway Dock & Terminal
company of Seattle, as head thereof
were decided upon at a joint execu
tive session of the port and dock com
missions JIarch 15, it became known
yesterday. 7ews writers were ex
cluded from the Joint session. j
The creation of a traffic bureau by
either the port or dock commission,
or both, has been under discussion for
a year or more. The first step was
the recent appointment of Joseph V.
Buckley as oriental traffic agent of
the port.
Three Office Contemplnted.
The complete plan, as recently out
lined by M. II. Houser, chairman of
the port commission, at a meeting of
that body, is to have one traffic
apent in the orient, another in the
eastern part of the United States and
a traffic manager stationed perma
nently in this city to direct all the op
trations uf the bureau.
II. L. Hudson attended the Joint ses
sion of the two port administrative
bodies March 15 and cave his views
on the scope and probable ecomplish
ments of such a bureau. He esti
mated the annual expense at from
Jju.OUtt to To.otJU and slated he would
undertake the work for $12,500 a year
on a three-year contract, plus $nr0
per year to be paid at the end of the
three-year period if the commission
ers consider that his service have
been satisfactory.
The resolution adopted at the Joint
conference provides that the traffic
bureau shall be established jointly by
the two commissions and that each
commission shall pay half of its ex
penses, the total expense not to exceed
$100,000 per year for the first three
years.
The establishment of the traffic
bureau and tlie formal appointment
of the traffic manager are to be
handled by .Max II. Mouser, chairman
of the port commission. C. B. Moores,
chairman of the dock commission, and
an advisory committee of two mem
bers to be named from each com
mission. Appointee Haft ftood Record.
II. I.. Hudson became well known
to Portland business and commercial
interests when connected witli the
traffic department of the old O. K.
X. Co. W hen this railroad was re
orcanized and invaded Pugct sound
territory, Mr. Hudson was sent to
Seattle in connection with its traffic
department, and is credited locally
with bein;j responsible for a large
proportion of the business developed
by the railroad into and out of i'uyet
sound.
In his present position, he is direct
ing the operation of a privately
owned and operated rail and water
terminal at Seattle which is reported
to be competing successfully with the
municipal terminals. The movement
of vegetable oils into Seattle from
me urieni is now conducted prin
cipally through the facilities provided
t the terminal of which Air. Hudson
is manager.
Announcement has recently been
made by the Pacific Steamship com
pany that oriental oils in bulk are
aoou to be brought into this port In
large quantities, and for this reason
members of the port and dock com
missions consider they are fortunate
in securing: the services of a traffic
manager who is thorouehiv familiar
wun this trade.
surveying- the various Inlets for de
termining plans for dredging.
The port will construct a small suc
tion dredge, probably of 12-inch ca
pacity and deepen channels to better
accomodate the ranchers, residing
adjacent to them, where they depend
entirely upon water transportation
for marketing: their products.
Other -work for the engineer will
be laying out of the p'roposed dock
plan. State Treasurer Hoff is quoted
as ready to buy the Coos bay port
bonds, if any more such purchases are
made.

Tax Reductions
There is a heavy tax on our income to meet the Gov
ernment's running expenses, and interest on the public
debt. This tax we all mu3t, can, and do meet.
There is another tax which money will not discharge
the tax on our physical system from stagnation of food
waste. Its name is Constipation. It burdens us and
makes sluggish a system otherwise perfectly healthy.
Nujol will fully clear this' tax. Nujol will keep the
poisonous waste moving out of the body by this en
tirely new principle it works on the waste matter
instead of on the system. Every other form of treat
ment either irritates or forces the system.
Nujol prevents constipation by keeping the food waste
soft, thus helping Nature establish easy, thorough bowel
evacuation at regular intervals the healthiest habit
in the world.
It is absolutely harmless and pleasant to take try it.
Nujol is sold by all druggists in bottles only, bearing Nujol
trade mark. Write Nujol Laboratories, Standard Oil Co. (New

Why Measles May
Be Dangerous
A FEELING OF SECURITY
This is No. 3 of a series of advertisements, prepared br a com
petent physician, explaining how certain diseases which attack
the air passages such as Pneumonia, Influenza, Whooping
Cough, Measles or even a long continued Cold often leave
these organs in an inflamed, congested state, thus affording a
favorable foothold for invading germs. And how Vick't Vapo
Rob may be of value in this condition.

Few of us escape measles it
is one of the commonest of child
hood diseases. Everv mother
knows the symptoms, but the
mistake that most mothers make
is in failing to realize that the
child is not fully recovered after
the eruption and fever disappear.
The air passages are still inflamed
and if this inflammation is not
cleared up, the air passages may
be weakened, thus paving the
way for pneumonia or serious
disease of the lungs.
Nightly applications of Vick's
VapoRub will aid nature in
relieving this inflammation. Be
cause Vicks acts locally by stim
ulation thru the skin to draw
out the inflammation, attract the
blood away from the congested
spots and relieve the cough. In
addition, the medicinal ingre
dients of Vicks are vaporized by
the body heat. These vapors
are breathed in all night long,
bringing the medication to bear
directly upon the inflamed areas.
Children's digestions are deli
cate easily disturbed by too
much "dosing." Vicks, there
fore, is particularly recommended
since it is externally applied and
so can be used often and freely
without the slightest harmful
effects. '
Vicks should be rubbed in
over the throat and chest until
the skin is red then spread on
thickly and covered with hot
flannel cloths. Leave the cloth
ing loose around the neck and
the bed clothes arranged in the
form of a funnel so the vapors
arising may be .freely inhaled.
If the cough is annoying, swallow
a small bit of Vicks the size of a

Tablets! Remember grandma's rem
edy sulphur and cream of tartar

Thousands avoided rheumatism and
serious fevers by taking it. Now you
can get the benefits by taking a little
tablet regularly containing the blood
purifying, system regulating medi
cines that grandma relied on.
Constipation, inactive kidneys are
overcome and catarrh, neuralgia, rheu

symptoms" vanish after a course of
Sulpherb Tablets. The best medicine
for spring lethargy and thick, slug
gish blood. Every package is guaran
