Longshoremen's Refusal Me
by Employing Veterans.
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. You
can have it abundant, soft, glossy and
full of life. Just get at any drug or
toilet counter a small bottle of "Dan
derine" for a few cents. Then moisten
a soft cloth with the "Danderine" and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time. Instantly,
yes. Immediately, you have doubled
the beauty of your hair. It will be
a mass, bo soft, lustrous and so easy
to do up.. All dust, dirt and excessive
oil is remo-.ed.
Let Danderine put more life, color,
vigor, and brightness ' in your hair.
This stimulating tonic will freshen
your scalp, check dandruff and fall
ing hair and help your Lair to grow
long, thick, strong and beautiful.
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.

EXTINCTION OF ALASKAN FISH
IS THREATENED.
Big Operators Held Responsible
for Situation Tax on Tonnage
In Trade Advocated.
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.

their estimate, you have a 5 per
cent chance to remain free from
unfavorable mouth acids through
out your life. But had you not
better consider the greater possi
bility that you are one of the 95
in 100 who have "Acid-Mouth"
the estimated chief cause of all
tooth decay?
IP(EB(EC
TOOTH PASTE
Counteracts "Acid-Mouth"
Pebeco Tooth Paste is universally rec
ognized and endorsed as the dentifrice
which counteracts any undue acidity in
the mouth in a thoroughly natural way
by stimulating the normal flow of saliva.
That is why, in a Pebeco-kept mouth, the
tendency to healthy teeth and gums is so
marked.
Use Pebeco twice a day, and have your
teeth examined by a dentist twice a year.
T'ow sum u cma bowo
launched in August. It Is of the 8S00-ton
type and will be sold or chartered bv the
I mately be consumed by tne worms tnai
ping men who have investigated the ves
sels. These experts say that owing to
the number of changes that would have
to be made in converting these wooden;
hulls into barkentines the expense would
be too high to justify the payment of
more than a nominal sum per ton.
The hulls lying In the fresh water lakes
near Seattle, it Is said, are not subject to
the destructive effect of the teredo and
crB.ft do not apply here. 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.
It la estimated by one operator who sub
mitted a bid which was rejected that, all
things being equal, the shipping board
would have to give the unfinished hulls
away and tender a bonus In addition ir
the party securing possession is to come
out with a reasonable profit.
