HEW THIERS WILL
BE INTERNED HERE
Swiftsure Company Will
Up Four Oil Carriers.
Tie
SLUMP IN TRADE REASON
1'olloulng C.'omplrlion of Vessels
Under Const ruetion Slcel Ship
yards Will Su-pend.
Beginning with the steamer Swift
nrout, which was launched March 12,
the new 12,00i)-ton steel tank steam
ers beins built here for the Swiftsure
Oil company will be tied up at Port
land as fast as they are completed,
it Miis announced yesterday by Cap
tain UcOrcc K. Bridsctt. marine su
perintendent for the Swiftsure Oil
company. The Swiftscout will ro
down the river from the plant of the
Northwest HridKe Iron company
Monday, cross out into the Pacific
Tuesday for her speed tests and
loaded sea trial and return to Fort
land Wednesday. - She will be tied up
at the plant of her builders.
The reason priven by Captain Brld-irc-tt
for tyinu up the Swiftscout and
the three other 12,000-tonners which
ni'A on the wavs of the Northwest
Hrlrfc-f' & Iron comoany is the faHiiiR
off of the oil trade to the extent that
there is no business for these boats.
They will remain here, he said, until
business improves sufficiently to
make their operation profitable.
Trade With Europe Slumps.
The Swiftsure Oil company's veeela
are operating: principally in the oil
trade between Mexico and New York
and the United Kingdom. It is the
trade with Europe that is reported to
be suffering the most severe slump.
Inquiries amonff officials of the
various oil companies serving Port
land failed to reveal conditions that
misht lead to the expectation of Idle-
' i..fl...ld nf Vi A nnnatvilM
ntaa lur tiny concia v m v.
fleet of oil tankers. All -boats of the
Standard. Associated and Union Oil
companies are fcaid to be running to
rapacity, except those temporarily
1 it I U Up lUt I C a. ' -. -
the Standard Oil company, however,
which has been a frequent visitor to
Portland for several years, has been
at San Francisco eince January 27.
Shipping Board Tnnkrra Idle.
Three shipping board tankers are
Idle on San Francisco bay also be
cause no business is in sight for them,
and it is expected by shipping men
that more of the government-owned
tank ere will be vacationed as new
vessels of this clpss are completed
for the oil companies. The shipping
board tankers now idle at San Fran
cisco are the steel steamer Dilworth
and the concrete steamers Peralta
and Palo Alto.
Captain Bridgett'e announcement
epclls the end of steel shipbuilding at
Portland for some time at least. With
ateel cargo boats of all types and
sizes idle in practically every world
port, the only hope of the builders for
additional contracts was the demand
for tankers resulting from the ship
ping board's .failure to construct
enough vessels of this type to balance
Its fleet. The announcement that new
tankers are to be tied up as fast us
they are completed means that not
only is this demand filled, but the
market is glutted.
Yard Will Close In June.
Tli next launching from the yard
of tie Northwest Bridge & Iron com
pany will take place under. the pres
ent schedule about April 15. The
vessels remaining to be completed in
that yard are expected to be finished
by June. The yard will close upon
the completion of work on this con
tract, as no new orders are In sight
a,id none expected.
Two 12.000-ton tankers remain to
b4 completed for the Standard Oil
company by the G. M. Standifer Con
struction corporation at Vancouver.
The first of these is to be launched
about April 20 and it is expected that
the Standifer yard will close late in
June or early in July. Between 7000
and 7500 men are employed in the two
steel shipbuilding plants.

SHIPPING STUDY IS MADE
On Tour of Country, Louisiana
Candidate Sounded Praise ot
Portland's Terminals.
Indorsement ot Rene F. Clerk, sec
retary of the New Orleans board of
port commissioners, for a position on
the new shipping board was asked f
the Portland commission of public
docks yesterday morning. A tele
gram from the New Orleans port com
mission, read at the mcetiiiB, was
referred to X3. B. llrgardt. chief en
gineer and secretary of the commis
sion, for suitable response. The com
mission decided to take no action in
the matter.
Mr. Clerk made the acquaintance
of Portland, shipping folk and won
the unanimous friendship of the dock
commissioners when he visited this
port last year in the course of a study
of port conditions in the principal
ports of the United States and Can
ada. Upon his return to New Orleans
he caused to be published in the offi
cial bulletin of th Association of
Commerce of that city an analysis of
the harbor facilities of Pacific ports,
in which he declared that Portland's
municipal terminals far surpassed
those of any other harbor on this
coast. t

dorsement of Mr. Clerk fori position
on the shipping- board read:
-We have wired President Harding

"'The efficient and economical op
eration of ships depends largely on
proper port tininal facilities and
operation, and we deem it just as
essential to have as a member of the
shipping board one who Is familiar
with port operations as one familiar
with steamship operation. If a mem
ber of the shipping board is to be
selected from New Orleans, .we lane
the liberty of indorsing Kene F. Clerk,
former president of the New Orleans
board of trade and at present secre
tary and a member of this commis
sion. Mr. Clerk has not only had ex
perience in matters of commerce, but
is experienced in port conditions and
operation, having in his capacity as
a commissioner of tnis port nmui a
study of port matters, not only in
this port, but in every port in the
United States of any consequence and
some of the ports of Canada.' "
Trackage Rlfthtu Granted.
Certain provisions of the commis
sion's building ordinance were waived
at the request of the Willamette
Iron & Steel works to permit that
company to erect buildings on the
old "boneyard" property.
The commission gave its consent
to the construction of a railroad spur
track in York street by the Albina
Fuel company and approved ordi
nances submitted by the city commis

SEAMEN'S ACT BLAMED
Shipping Board's Inability to Dis-
pose or Craft Is Considered.
DETROIT. Mich., March 24. The
seamans' act was responsible for the
shipping board's inability to dispose
of its vessels at anywhere near their
worth, and unless it is amended to
exempt vessels on inland waterways,
will put Great Lakes shipowners com
pletely out of business, Meyer A.
Phillips of the Detroit & Cleveland
Navigation company declared at a
meeting of lakes shipping men here
yesterday. At another conference
early in April, It is planned to bring
pressure upon congress to modify

claring they could not hope to com
pete with vessels of foreign registry.

OF
Improvement of Big City Dis
trict Held Necessary.
BOND ISSUE IS PROPOSED
Property Owners Advised by Com--f
niissioner Bar bur to Take Inill-
alive in Knterprise.
Formation of a $10,000,000 corpora
tion, composed of property owners
within tho district bounded by Madi
son, Glisan and Fourth streets and
the river, for the purpose of working
out a large Improvement programme,
was suggested to these property own
ers yesterday by City Commissioner
Barbur. .
A delegation of property owners of
this district, which filled the coun
cil chambers, appointed Graham Glass
temporary chairman of the organiza
tion and authorized him to appoint a
committee of 15 to investigate the
project and report. Paul Wessinger
was appointed temporary secretary.
Commissioner Barbur informed the
property owners that some co-ordi-pated
plan must be worked out if
the district is to prosper in the fu
ture. He contended that It was im
practicable to make the project a
municipal one, but argued that the
property owners could incorporate
and issue bonds to carry the plan
to success.
Bis: Terminal Sua-K-eMted.
"You canot expect to keep live
business men in your district unless
you improve it," said Commissioner
Barbur. "The district affected by this
proposed project, outlined - by City
Engineer Laurgard was formerly th-j
very heart of the city of Portland. It
has depreciated, but it can bo rebuilt,
to the benefit not alone of the prop
erty owners affected, but of the city
as a whole."
Mr. Barbur said it had been sug
gested that a large street railway
terminal for interurban lines be es
tablished on Front street, removing
the electric lines from Fourth, Sal
mon and Tenth streets.
He also suggested that the property
owners wbrk out a plan whereby the
city could lease space on Front street
for a public market.
Frederick W. Mulkey. former United
States senator, was the only person
who offered opposition to the scheme.
The position of temporary thairman
was offered to Senator ilulkey, but
he declined it. saying he was not in
sympathy with the movement.'
1 0,000.000 estimated Coat.
Considerable discussion was heard
on the subject, after which it was
announced that the meeting would
adjourn to the call of the temporary
chairman.
It is estimated that the proposed
project for improving the district
would cost 110,000.000, but Engineer
Laurgaard held that the project could
be made self-sustaining, if carried to
completion without too much delay.
