Newspaper Page TextTHE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1920 13 TEAL TO GET FULL BACKING OH BOARD Aid Pledged at Meeting of Foreign Commerce Club. GREAT OPPORTUNITY SEEN Portland and State Chambers and Port and Dock Commissions Join in Assurances. Joseph N. Teal, recently appointed member of the United States ship ping board, last night received assur ances that t!fe Portland and state chambers of commerce, the Portland port and dock commissions and the l'oreign Commerce club would back blm "to the limit" In his new work on the shipping board. Teal was the honor guest at rthe regular meeting of the Foreign Commerce club held at the Chamber of Commerce last night. II. B. Van Duzer and George Quayle, representing the Portland and state chambers respectively, and H. Li. Hudson of the port and dock commissions, joined in their assur ances of support and co-operation. In reply, Mr. Teal declared that he would do all in his power to see that Portland was given a square deal in shipping matters. Large Work la Predicted. "The work of the shipping" board will be large." said Mr. TeaL "Its ecope will be nation-wide. I cannot promise that any favoritism will be EhowA this district, but I will see to it that Portland is not discriminated against." Dr. Hunter "Wells, who has spent 20 years aa a medical missionary in Corea, spoke befl7 on the trade pos sibilities in the orient, and the share that Portland should claim in that trade development. There is no arti cle of export trade that cannot find a market In the orient, according to Dr. Wella, and there is no reason -why this port should not become one of the great exporting ports of the world." Great Opportunity Cited. James B. Kerr told of some of the reasons why Portland has been slow in realising the necessity for port and harbor development in the past and why so many divergent opinions were expressed in regard to the port consolidation measure before the ob jections had been removed. The rea son for this, according to Mr. Kerr, was that only a small per cent of the people of Portland had studied or thought about the possibilities of foreign tradje. "It is possible tot Portland to be come the greatest city on the coast if the people will wake up to a re alization that in foreign commerce lies the key to future development," declared Mr. Kerr. "We have the op portunity here such as no other city on the coast enjoys. It is up to us to make use -of it." ISew Bailnes I Obtained. H. L. Hudson announced to the club that Swayne & Hoyt, Inc., man aging operators of the Pacific-Caribbean and Gulf line, which operates between New Orleans and Pacific coast ports, have completed arrange ments with the Mississippi Warrior service to issue through bills of lad ing and to name through class and commodity rates from St. Louis. East St. Louis and Memphis, "to Pacific coast ports of call on westbound traf fic. "This is the first case, to our knowledge, of handling business be yond the port of New Orleans in con nection with Mississippi river steam boat lines," said Hudson. -'This should be of great benefit to our Portland jobbers who drawtheir goods from Mississippi river valley territory." GLADSTONE SOLDIER BACK E. Horton Is Home Af ter Long Stay With Troops in Germany. OREGON CITY, Nov. 1. (Special.) Karl Horton, son. of Mr. and Mrs. L. P. Horton of Gladstone, Or., re turned to his home Friday morning from Europe, having received his honorable drwoharge from the service in New York a few days ago.

After his discharge he re-enlisted for a year and was sent into Germany. At the Theaters. Pantages. BOBKER'S SIX HARLEQUINS, an acrobatic novelty which is so sen sational that applause accompanies the 4ct throughout its appearance, opens the new bill at Pantages. The six acrobats wear costumes of harle quin type and put comedy of a happy turn into their turnings. One of the harlequins Is a" diminutive ebon boy, who is a whirlwind of motion. The six make marvelous revolutions In the air and somersault so fast the eye cannot distinguish legs from arms. The act is a French importa tion by war of the Follies Bergeres. The last act claims attention be cause of the excellent singing voice of its sponsor. Art Penny, as well as for the music played by his back ground of "seven synco knights." The seven play jazz mournfully or merrily according to the piece, and occasion ally put in a dreamy, tuneful melody.

They have a piano, which one of the twain tinkles occasionally to punctuate, some es- , pecial terpsichorean intricacy. j An artistic dancing novelty which i embraces classical ,and character- dances is offered by a trio of excep- I tionally gifted and well-taught danc- j ers. Miss Jean Hamilton, Miss Culver and Mr. Hermann. The last-named is ; an exponent of Russian dancing and ' is amazingly qulck and agile. Miss Culver offers a novelty jazz specialty ' and Miss Hamilton is a triumph of grace and artistry in a toe dance of ! original developments. The act is j smartly put on and entertaining. The Winter Garden Four were warmly received and their big, happy ' voices made plenty ef friends for them. O. G. Roscoe, C. Williams, C. McCash and H. C. Ballentyne com prise the four excellent singers. Their harmony is especially fine and their selections most pleasing. Two girls. Misses Gaylord and Hei ron, appear first in blackface and later, in a dressing-room scene, re move the ebony and sing and step. The "Lost City" is still lost.
