BANKERS
CONSIDER
CONGLAV
E IN CITY
Financial Body May Meet
Here Next Year.
NORTHWEST SESSION ENDS
Closer Co-ordination Is Sought Be
tween Chapters at Meeting
Held in Seattle.
Having1 established herself as the
"convention city of the westi" Port
land has a good chance to be the city
chosen for the annual convention of
the American Institute of Bankers
in 1922. according to J. K. Bryon of
the Ladd & Tilton bank, who re
turned yesterday from a conference
' of the northwest chapters of the or
ganization held in Seattle last week.
Representatives of the four chap
ters in the northwest, Portland, Se
attle, Spokane and Tacoma, went on
record as indorsing Portland's re
quest for the important convention in
1922, and it was felt that in all prob
ability the national organization
would take a similar action at the
convention next year. No other con
tenders have been mentioned thus
far, according to Mr. Bryon, although
it would be impossible to say what
would develop before next June.
The principal object of the late
conference in Seattle was to work
' out a plan for closer co-ordinating
between the northwest chapters and
to Indorse candidates for election to
the national executive committees.
Many minor deails in connection with
chapter problems also were discussed
in the two-day session.
George P. Maine, assistant cashier
of the Dexter-Horton National bank
of Seattle, and P. R. Williams of Los
Angeles were indorsed as candidates
for the national executive council.
James W. Cur ran, vice-president of
the Anglo-London and Paris bank of
San Francisco, Tras indorsed for vice
president of the national body.
TRUST DEPARTMENT ADDED
Eugene Bank Increases Scope of
Institntion.
The First National bank of Eugene
last week added a trust department
to the institution, following lo..g con
sideration of the subject by the
board of directors and after receiv
ing the necessary authorization from
Che federal reserve board, according
to an article in the Eugene Register.
In addition to the authority cf the
federal reserve board, the bi.nk has
been granted the privilege by the
state of Oregon authorities and has
complied with all the laws, rules and
regulations relating to trust com
panies of the state, including the de
posit of $50,000 with the state bank
ing department, says the Register;
"The bank's principal activities in
this new department will be as trus
tee and administrator of estates," said
L. L. Goodrich, cashier.
"It has long been recognized that an
institution like the First National
bank, which has a continuing organi
sation and which does not die nor be
come inoperative on the death or ab
sence of any individual but continues
in cumulative experience and ability
to handle people's affairs, can func
tion better as an administrator than
an individual. The individual named
in one's will may die before the maker
-of the will, or about the same time in
which case the testator has nothing
to say as to who should execute the
will and safeguard the interests of
the heirs.
"W. T. Gordon, the trust officer. Is
one of the best known and respected
men of the community. Having had
a great deal of experience in handling
property and the interests of others,
is particularly well qualified to han
dle the affairs of individuals who
make the bank their administrator or
executor." - .
LOCAIi BOXOS OFFERED EAST
Boston Newspaper Carries Adver
tisement for Securities.
An interesting angle on bond mar
ket tendencies is brought out In the
fact that while Canadian atvl other
foreign bond issues bearing a high
interest yield find a ready market in
Portland and the Pacific coast, the
last issue of city of -Portland 5 per
cent gold bonds yielding & to 5.75
per cent is being offered to the east
ern bond market.
A recent advertisement on the fi
nancial page of the Boston Evening
Transcript offers the Portland bonds
t 98 for the 1930 maturities and at
100 for the 1946 to 1950 maturities.
The advertisement points out that the
bonds are free from federal Income
tax and that they constitute a legal
investment for the savings banks of
Maine and Vermont and for all in
surance companies. The population
of Portland is given as 258.288.
Local bond dealers explain this sit
uation by the fact that eastern inves
tors of large capital cannot afford to
invest in bonds which are not exempt
from the income tax. while Pacific
coast .investors of small capital can
not afford to invest in bonds bearing
a .low rate of interest. A large per
centage of the Canadian bonds sold
in this dfstrict are acquired by the
small investor, whose total income is
not affected by the Income tax, it is
, said.
PORTLAND CLEARINGS GROW
Seattle Surpassed in Ocotber by
Nine Millions.
In addition to the fact that Port
land's bank clearings for the month
of October, 1920, exceeded that of
Seattle by more than $9,000,000 a
comparison with the bank clearings
of a year ago for .both cities shows
that Portland missed the record mark
set in October. 1819. by only $649,008.
while Seattle missed the high record
of a year ago by $25,881,188.
Furthermore, a comparison of the
total bank clearings for the first ten
months in 1920 and 1919 "for both
cities, shows that Portland has in
creased her clearings by $257,973,263,
while Seattle shows an increase of
$112,419,863 during the corresponding
period.
Bank clearings for both cities dur
ing first ten months of 1919 and 1920
follow:
Portland bank clearings for first
ten months, 1920, $1,602,514,950; 1919,
$1,344,551,637.
Seattle bank clearings for first ten
months, 1920, $1,776,554,638; 1919
,1,664,134,775. -

selves to assist responsible farmers in
their respective .communities in . the
purchase of foundation stock and
purebred sires. Some months ago C.
D. Rorer f Eugene, chairman of the

POWERS SAYS PORT
FACES ITS DESTINY
Chance of Generation Here,
Says Committeeman.
GOOD HARBOR NECESSITY
Merchant Urges Voters to Back
' Both Consolidation Bills
Vitb. Big Ballot.
A thorough statement of the mer
its of the port consolidation bill. No.
310, which makes possible the consol
idation of the Port of Portland and
the city commission of lublic docks,
and of the charter amendment. No.
510, which authorizes . the city to
turn over its docks to the combined
commission, was made yesterday by
Ira F. Powers, member of the com
mittee of 15 and of the city plan
ning commission.
Mr. Powers, who is one of Port
land's most prominent merchants and
who, as a member of the committee
of 15. has spent many months in
conferences with experts on the needs
of Portland as a port, declared that
the bill was a step in the right direc
tion and should be passed.
"The most important planning and
development projects before . the
people of Portland or the state of
Oregon at the present time are the
tnitiatlve bill making possible the
consolidation of the Port of Portland
and the .city commission of public
docks ar.d - the charter amendment
authorizing the city to turn over Its
docks to this combined commission,"
said Mr. Powers.
Period of Development Here.
"We are entering a period of trade
readjustment and opportunity such
as may not occur again in a genera
tion. The Increase in railroad freight
rates has forced shippers to return
to water routes. New steamship
lines and- trade routes, - with their
specialized ports of call', are now
being established all over the world
and particularly on the Pacific The'
next two years will-probably see the
choice of these lines and ports of call
settled upon for a long time to come.
"This is the day of the port that
is ready. One of the largest shipping
contracts ever gained by. any port of
this coast was tba.t obtained this year
by Portland for phosphate rock to be
sent to Jivpan. We got it because we
had & terminal with trackage -ready
and bond money voted but unspent
that could be used to put in bunkers
and equipment necessary to this kind
of business and which other coast
ports were not ready to offer. Port
land must keep ahead of the demand
to gain the business. . -
1'nlfled Plan Necessary.
"With the large improvements and
expenditures required to equip a mod.
ern port. It is fundamental that one
unified plan of development be
worked out and followed. This plan
must insure a satisfactory river chan
nel and ample harbor and dock facili
ties, provide relief from railroad ter
minal congestion, and ample rail and
terminal Interchange. Aa far as pos
sible it should provide convenient and
well-equipped sites for industrial de
velopment. Co-ordination of these
facilities Is one of the prime require
ments of modern business, which
must be considered as one problem
for the whole port, rather 'than as
separate problems.
"Such port and dock development is
more than a city problem. - It also
requires unified and intensive man
agement and control. The consoli
dation of the port and city dock com
missions is a fundamental necessity
and should be accomplished as soon
as possible.
' Consolidation Plan Good.
"T'he present measures on the ballot
accomplish this consolidation, and are
therefore a step in the right direc
tion. At the same time it is probably
impossible to get all the details f
management of such a combined port
and dock commission perfected in one
bill. These matters can safely be left
to future legislative enactment. The
important thing now is to agree upon
unified management of our port im
provements. "Millions of dollars' worth of dredg
ing must be done on the inner harbor
and- rtver channel during the next
ten years. The valuable material so
dredged out from the bottom of the
river should be used, as in other ports,
for filling in permanent docks and in
dustrial sites -owned by the public,
instead of being - given to private
property holders or piled at the river's
edge to wash down later and make
another dredging of the same ma
trial necessary.
Affirmative Vote Urged. -'
"Portland has port and dock develop
ment to be proud of, in comparison
with other cities. It has been ham
pered heretofore only because man
agement by boards with overlapping
powers, by lack of a unified plan, and
sufficient funds. With these three
hampering items provided for, Port
land has every reason to expect as
able if not better management in the
future under the present bill.
"Adoption of this measure is urgent
and will be a long step toward get
ting a real "harbor, one that can suc
cessfully compete with other pro
gressive coast cities. A defeat of the
present consolidation and improve
ment proposal may give a serious set
back to Portland's future business, and
prosperity. -It- is important at this
time to stop quibbling over details
and get to work on the harbor. I
therefore strongly recommend voting

TAG 13 CAUSES ARREST
Motorcyclist Asked to Explain
Altered License Plate.
The fact that there- Is no motor
cycle license number 13 last night
brought Peter M. Olson of Beav'erton
Into police headquarters on the
charge, of tampering with a license
number.
Plainclotfresmen Burdick and Shaf
fer of the automobile theft depart
ment were surprised to read the num
ber "R-13" on the rear plate of a
passing motorcycle. Immediate in
vestigation followed, not because of
the hoodoo, however. It was found
that the front portion of the figure
9 had been scratched out. leaving a
passable 13 tn its place.
Olson admitted that the number
had been changed, but denied that
he had done so, leaving the police
to conclude that either a theft had
been attempted or that the . young
motorcyclist ch:hged the number aa
a joke, possibly without realizing that
he would thereby foul the law.
He was released on bail and will
have an opportunity this morning to
assist the municipal court in solving
the problem.
