THE MORXIXG OREGOXIAX, SATURDAY, MAY 29.-1930
4 VESSELS TO TAKE
E
Eastern Sailor Assigned
European Pacific Line.
to
POMONA IS DELAYED
Steamer Originally Scheduled for
Late June Ixa d i ng AVest
Cayote Is Slated.
Assignment of the shipping board
steamer Eastern Sailor to the European-Pacific
line and the coming of
this vessel and three othprs to Port
land for heavy offerings of freight
were announced yesterday by the Columbia-Pacific
. Shipping company,
local agents for the European-Pacific
line.
The steamer Pomona, launched at
San Francisco February 18, was orig
inally scheduled for late June loading
lr. the European-J'acific service, but
delays in her construction have led
to the substitution of the Eastern
Sailor, to come here the latter part of
next month. The Eastern Sailor was
built for the shipping board in Japan
and arrived at Taccma May 19 for de
livery to the emergency fleet corpo
ration. Her maiden voyage under the
American flag will be from Pacific
ports to Dunkirk. France, Liverpool
and Glasgow. Of her total cargo
of from 7500 to 8C0D tons, 4500 tons
will be loaded at Portland. This
amount of freight has already been
booked for the vessel by the Columbia-Pacific
company.
Pomona to load Here.
Following the Eastern Sailor, the
Pomona will load here for Europe
during the first half of July, and ap
proximately 5300 tons of freight have
been booked for this ship.
The late July sailing in the, European-Pacific
line will be taken by
either the West Kedron or the Topa
Topa, both of which vessels were re
cently antiounfpd as allocated to this
service. The West Kedron is build
ing at Long Beich. and the Topa Topa
was launched at San Pedro May 1.
The steamer West Cayote, which
loaded h-ere in February in the Euro
pean-Pacific service after bringing
the first direct imports from Europe
to be received here in more than six
years, will come to Portland again for
urop3an cargo early In August.
Commerce Increase Shown.
The increase in commerce between
Portland and Europe since this city
was made a port ot call of the Euro
pean-Pacific line is shown by the fact
that the next two vessels of the line,
while taking cargo from four ports
on the Pacific coast, will load more
than half their total freight here,
Only a few months ago, operators of
these vessels wero reluctant to send
them here becauisa cf the scant offer
ings of freight at Portland for Eu
rope. One ve3sop of the Jlne parsed
this port completely because not
enough cargo could be assembled here
to make it worth her while to come
up the river.
Besides the four regular liners men
tioned above, which will take cargo
for Europe from t uget sound, Port
land. San Francisco and San Pedro,
four vessels of tho European-Pacific
line are scheduled to load full cargoes
at Portland during June and July.
