"I am aure," he said, "that the
fleet corporation will secure the best
results in this sale by giving all
bidders an equal opportunity, and,
even though this procedure will cost
will be worth it to assure the peo
more than selling on the first bid. it
pie that their government has not
mistreated them.
"I have no knowledge that offi
cials of the supply and sales division
did anything at all irregular, but if
I had I would not hesitate to say so.
It appears, however, that in their zeal
to complete the task before them
they determined upon a course of

Bids for Uncompleted Huns ana
Materials on Coast Accepted
Cntil ext Friday.
In ' response to a protest by eight
prospective purchasers and a recom
mendation made by Senator Cham
berlain, announcement was made yes
terday by H. B. Miller, director of the
supply and sales division of the
emergency fleet corporation, that
bids will be accepted until 11. o'clock
next Friday morning for all the un
completed wooden hulls and ship
building material remaining in the
possession of the emergency fleet
corporation on the Pacific coast.
Bidding on this material was de
clared closed at 4 P. M. last Friday.
At that time only one bid had been
received, that of the Barde Industrial
company of this city. Shortly before
the hour set for the close of bidding,
eight would-be purchasers met in the
office of Senator Chamberlain and
sought his counsel in obtaining an
extension of the time for bidding.
Mr. Miller, who attended the meeting,
acted upon the'protest of the would
be bidders and the advice of the senator-and
telegraphed Washington rec
ommending an extension of time.
The reason given by the prospec
tive "bidders who did not enter bids
Friday for their failure to do so was
that a complete Inventory and ap
praisal of the property upon which
they were expected to bid had not
been available to them.
Other ConcesNiooif Made.
Two further concessions to those
who failed to bid before are con
tained in the call for bids authorized
yesterday. These are that bids will
be opened in the Portland office of
the supply and sales division in the
presence of bidders instead of in
Washington, T. P., and that pur
chasers are permitted to bid on the
property embraced in any one state
or for the uncompleted wooden hulls
apart from the material and equip
ment. The former call was for bids
on all the property without reserva
tions. The prospective1 purchasers who met
with Senator Chamberlain protested
strongly against the acceptance of
the Barde bid and found fault with
the entire procedure. It is under
stood that in Seattle dissatisfaction
was expressed both by firms that de
sired to bid and by some of the men
within the emergency fleet corpora
tion. It was feared that the provision
that bids must cover the entire tS.
OOn.000 worth of property to be dis
posed of by the government would re

at junk prices. The bids now to be

MlKmanagrmrnt l Charged.
Howard ti. Cosgrove, counsel for
the emergency fleet corporation, re
signed from that office about a week
ago. Mr. Cosgrove. whose offices
were in Seattle, declared that his res
ignation was due to dissatisfaction
with the conduct of the supply and
sales division, which, he said, had
been mismanaged. Whether the
method by which it was proposed to
sell all the properties in one lot was
specifically the cause of his dissat
isfaction. Mr. Cosgrove did not sav
but it has been inferred among men
interested that this may have had
something to do with It. At least
two other resignations are reported
to havebeen submitted by employes
or the Seattle offices.
It was reported yesterday that Jay
S. Hamilton of the Portland office.
assistant manager in. charge of sales
for the Pacific coast district, had re
signed, but this Was denied last night
by Mr. Hamilton, who had been out
of the city. A similar report concern
ing F. J. Rosenberg, executive as
sistant to Mr. Hamilton, was con
firmed. Mr. Rosenberg. however,
said that the present protests had
nothing to do with his action, and that
he had resigned because of a better
position offered elsewhere.
Alarm field Vnneoesaary.
W. C- Hunter, who recently suc
ceeded C. O. Yoakum as manager of
the Pacific coast district of the sup
ply and sales division, could not be
reached last night at the Multnomah
hotel, where he is living. H. B. Mil
ler said he had no knowledge of the
resignations, but would not unless
Hunter himself resigned. Other res
ignations from the local district force
would be handled directly by Mr.
Hunter, he said.
"There is no occasion for alarm,"
he declared, "even if several resigna
tions have been made. The sale of
the material in this district will in
evitably mean the curtailment of the
sales force, though some organiza
tion will be necessary for some 18
months until the transaction is com
pleted. A force to handle supplies for
shipping board vessels will be neces
sary indefinitely."
Senator Chamberlain last night ex
pressed himself as gratified at the
First Lumber Rate to Cuba Estab
lished by Shipping Board Is
$25 a . 1000 Feet.
Impetus was given to then cam
paign to free Portland from the jur
isdiction of the Seattle office of the
division of operations of the shipping
board by the statement yesterday of
one of the largest Portland lumber
exporters that a new shipping board
freight rate on lumber from north"
Pacific ports to Cuba was announced
in Seattle a week before it was made
public in Portland- He held that be
cause of the earlier announcement
of the rate at Seattle, lumber oper
ators of Puget sound were enabled to
secure all the business offering for
Cuba before Portland lumber export
ers were enabled to bid on the busi
The new shipping board ra.te on
lumber to Cuba was announced yes
terday as $25 a thousand feet. Infor
mation that the new rate had been
established was received by telephone
ysterday by E. W. Crichton, district
agent of the operations division, from
the district manager's office at Se
attle, and immediately givtn to the
lumber trade by Mr. Crichton.
As this rate is practically equal to
the latest charter rates on private
tonnage from Portland to Cuba, lum
ber operators yesterday expressed no
criticism for the rate itself, but only
for the alleged delay in the trans
mission of the new rate to Portland.
This is the first lumber rate to Cuba
established by the shipping board.
Previous shipments to Cuba have
been carried by privately owned vessels.
Efforts of Farmers to Sell Wheat
in Absence of Export Demand
Causes Slump.
CHICAGO. Oct. 4. All prain prices
smashed down today to the lowest level
since 1017. Impairment of confidence on
the part of owners appeared to be largely
responsible. The finish in wheat was
semidemoralized at 11 Vi to l2Vac net de
cline, with December 91.95 to J1.95Vj and
March $1.01 $1.91 Vs. Corn lost 4 i to
fcc; oats. IVjilc to 2c, and provisions
0c to $1.17.
Heavy selling found the wheat market
with little support Except from shorts who
were in a position to grab profits. Toward
the last, even this prop gave out and val
ues collapsed in srood earnest, notwith
standing that the pressure to sell had
diminished as compared with the first
part of the day. The unanimity of bear
ish sentiment was due in a considerable
degree to gossip that liquidation from
rural sources had increased. Besides, ex
port demand seemed to have vanished for
the time being aid domestic millers gave
no sign of coming to the rescue. On the
contrary, one of the biggest flour mills in
St. louis was reported as having closed
down for lack of buying orders. Canadian
wheat continued to be offered freely and
it was confirmed that actual exports from
India had begun.
Big receipts and ideal weather accel
erated the decline of corn. Oats sympa
thized. Provisions, like grain, were without ade
quate support.
The Chicago market letter received yes
terday by Overbeck & Cooke company of
Poniand said:
wheat It waa a weak market from
start to finish. Ail small bulges due to
profit taking by shorts were quickiy
erased The $2 mark found resting orders
to buy. but in insufficient volume to ab
sorb liquidating tales. The cash market
responded to the declines in future and
although premiums were unchanged here,
the basis waa b cents lower in the north
west. For the first time in several day;
export demand was reported as completely
absent. Perhaps the most significant news
of the day was a report that the country
shows more willingness to sel i. This is
the first indication of larger receipts and
tbs importance is emphasized when cne
recalls that the farmer stubbornly re
fused to aeil corn above $1.50 but is now
damping it on the market as rapid-iy as
possioie. we are in the midst of the long
awaited period of deflation and normal
factors are oi minor importance.
Corn General selling developed shortly
after the opening and the load that was
put into the market waa more than the
buying, which was mainly to cover fchorta,
couid digest. Cash corn continued to dis
play eahnM by d-eciining to around the
October price for the contract grade. There
is a surplus in the country that the farmer
apparently wants to convert into cash, re
gardless of sacrifice.
Oats Prices receded readily with other
grains. Cash prices broke with futures
and spot sa-ies were on approximately the
same Dasis as Saturday. This market
might be low enough to be a purchase,
but there is nothing in the outlook upon
which to base prognostications of that
sort.
Rye The buying power in this market
was considered of an influential sort, but
it failed to of f--et the selling inspired by
weakness in other pits.
Provision Commis5ion house rinuldation
and poor support featured the market
The only buying appeared to be in the
nature of short covering. We continue to
look for lower prices.

Are Stocks Headed
Up or Down?
After a decline in security
: prices extending over a pe
Irtod of nearly a year, due to
industrial deflation, it is of
interest to know whether the
: downward movement has
culminated, or whether the
! strong rally which has re
cently taken place represents
a bulge preparatory to a
further decline.
In view of. the extreme im
portance of this question, we
have attempted to indicate
' the probable trend of the
market over the balance of
the year in an editorial ap
pearing in our current
1 Market Review.
' This publication, which cur
i! t1ir fliccitises developments
in industrial, oil and mining
companies, will be sent to
