POLICE GUARD ON DOCK Steamer Potter Chartered and Moored Alongside Ship to Serve as Quarters for Workmen. Following- the refusal of members ef the longshoremen's union to load the steamer Eelbeck with grain han dled on the dock, by a crew which had not been hired through the union headquarters, neeotiations between the operators of the vessel and tb union leaders ceased yesterday. ,erew of ex-service men was secured to stow the grain in the vessel, and the loading proceeded yesterday morning, and was continued wlthou Interruption throughout the day Though no violence was reported, a rjolice guard was placed on tn dock and the side-wheel steamer T. J Potter, which has lain idle for a ion time, was chartered by the employ ers yesterday and'moored Desiae in Eelbeck to serve as quarters tor in workmen engaged In loading the ves tL The use of the Potter as a board ing house was determined upon by the employers to relieve the work men from the necessity of passing through the streets, where it was feared they might be set upon by the union workmen. Mm Strike Declared. No strike has been declared in the ease of the steamer Eelbeck. but deadlock has been reached between the officials of the Internationa Longshoremen's association and the Portland Waterfront fcmployers onion. When the steamer Eel&eck, one of the shipping board vessels of the European-Pacific line, was berthed at the Montgomery dock Friday the ship operators asked the longshoremen's union to supply crew to load her with a cargo of sacked wheat. The longshoremen, after rigging the chutes and making all preparations to begin work, refused to touch the grain because the men handling it on the dock had not been employed through the longshoremen's union. A. C. Stubbe and Henry Rothschild, president and (vice-president of the employers' union, corresponded with the longshoremen's union, endeavor ing to explain that the ship operators did not control the work on the dock and were unable to change the situa' tion. Several ineffectual letters were exchanged, the longshoremen's union insisting upon the employment on the dock of men hired through their local and the operators replying that they were offering the longshoremen's union all the work over which they exercised any control. Attempts at a conciliation ended yesterday morning, and a crew consisting entirely of ex- service men was placed on the ship. Official Statement Issued. As the situation stood last night. the longshoremen's union refused to load the vessel unless the crew on the dock was changed. The operators of the ship were powerless to change the crew.on the dock, and the Pacific Grain company, operators of the dock. t showed no disposition to make a " change. Concerning the personnel employed en the dock, S. C. Draper, president of the Pacific Grain company, oper ators of the dock and charterers of the steamer Eelbeck, made the fol lowing official statement yesterday: During the months of December and January there were a great many ex-service men In the city out of tprk. The dock operators and mill people were asked by a committee to give work for a certain number of these men, which we endeavored to do to the best of our ability. "In order to avoid the possibility of any confusion or bad feeling, we ar ranged to give these menemployment ' at a separate dock where no grain handlers were at the time employed, and continued to employ the same crew of grain handlers we were then using, but notwithstanding this pre caution, the business agent of the grain handlers served an ultimatum. staling ana demanding that unless we immediately discharged all of these ex-service men. they would call off the grain handlers at Once. Patriotism la Ignored. ' "We did our best to pacify them by xplaining that it was our duty as well as theirs (the grain handlers) to ace to it that all ex-service men re ceived employment and that they ehould be reasonable and fair. "The only reply we received was that they did not care ibout that part of it. that if we hired ex-service men, the grain handlers were going off, and off they went in a body, without a moment's warning. "There was nothing left for us to do further than to try and meet the situation, which we have endeavored to do. Having sold a cargo of wheat, which has been th first wheat ship- DOUBLE BEAUTY OF YOUR HAIR "Danderine" creates mass of thick, gleamy waves Tb a few moments you can trans form your plain, dull, flat hair.

Adv. ment for private account since the be ginning of the war, we are now con fronted with a strike the longshore men claiming that they will not re ceive the wheat that ia being deliv ered to the chutes by the ex-service men." The. side of. the longshoremen's union In the controversy was ex pressed yesterday afternoon by J. W. Murphy, business agent of the union, as ' follows: "We have no objection, to ex-service men and, in fact, many returned army and navy men are members of this local. We do not insist that men era ployed on the dock shall be union men, but we do insist that they shall be hired through this office. "In picking up an outside crew wherever they can to make good their lockout of union members, the dock operators are camouflaging their po sition by saying that they have a crew of ex-service men. I venture to say that there are not more than three former army or navy men 1n the crew of 35 on the Montgomery dock." A flat contradiction of this asser tion was made last night by Mr. Dra per, who said, "The eVew on the dock is the -same as we employed when the grain handlers left us, and is com posed entirely of ex-service men." Officers of both the longshoremen s and the employers' unions last night were of the opinion that an amicable settlement will be reached within a few days and the belief is expressed on both sides that the trouble on the steamer Eelbeck and the Montgomery dock will remain a purely local affair and that the remainder of the Port land waterfront will not b,e involved.

WASHINGTON, March 29. The big salmon packing companies were held responsible for the threatened ex tinction of the Alaskan salmon fish eries by Maurice Leehy of Seattle, counsel of the Alaskan territorial shipping board. In testifying today be fore the senate commerce committee on legislation designed to promote Alaskan shipping. The "big packers," through owner ship of private boats, Mr. Leehy de clared, have a financial advantage oyer the smaller ones who use the regular boat lines subject to legal requirements not Imposed on private lines. The bie packers also are more interested In record production than in safeguarding supplies, ne saia. By charging a tax on tonnage ot all ships entering the Alaskan trad;. Mr. Leehy told the committee the small packer would be" nearer equality than the larger one and the salmon industry also would Deneiu. Use of the tonnage tax In contract ing with ship lines for regular serv ice, Mr. Leehy argued, would result In diversion of much salmon now shipped to Prince Rupert to American ports and over American-qwned rail lines Instead of the Canadian routes to the eastern portion of the United States. The tax of $3 a net ton on ships entering the Alaskan trade as pro posed by the bill, Mr. Leehy esti mated, would raise an annual fund of $500,000.

It Is pointed out that the several craft purcnasea oy local nartles who converted them into barkentines were vessels that originally had been planned for sailing ships and only a few minor changes were necestary.
