LINE TO FRAMt WHITE CALLS PRESENT SERVICE IXA-DiEQ CATE. Huge Volume of Business Between Islands and Columbia River Declared Possible. "It has been stated by persons who can speak with authority that there are 200.000 tons of freight in the Hawaiian islands which are avail able annually for a return carjro to the United States." declared Frank Ira White of the foreig-n trade bureau of the Chamber of Commerce yester day, as a result of a number of visits which have been made to his office by Hawaiian manufacturers In the past two months. "It has long been recognized that there should be a steamship service established and maintained between Portland and the islands." Mr. White continued, "and with an established line, with adequate service, fair ton nage and passenger accommodation, the volume of traffic could be ma terially increased." Some interesting figures on the 1920 trade of the islands were given out by Mr. White. In 1920 .Hawaii sold to the 'United States products valued at $190,515,772, and in the same time products bought in the United States by Hawaii were valued at $74,052,452. This, he said, is con sidered a remarkable volume of trade for a territory with a total popula tion of 255.912. The bulk of the business of the Hawaiian islands is now being car ried on with the United States main land, according to Mr. White. Con siderable has been said about the business control over Hawaii being held by Japan, but statistics, he de clared, show that the total business carried on with Japan during 1820 amounted to 15,098.071. The business with foreign countries amounted to a total of $13,199,544, in which the Japanese business was included. At present there is a steamship service maintained between the Co lumbia river and Hawaii by the Alaska Steamship company, their steamer Cordova just having loaded a cargo at Astoria. This service was put on as a result of the co-operation by the Port of Astoria, according to Mr. White, and assures a sailing from the mouth of the Columbia to the stands monthly. It is important, in Mr. White's opinion, that traffic orig inating in this territory and that in bound from the islands should be handled by steamers giving direct service. v According to the figures compiled. approximately 6.000.000 cases of pine apples are packed in the islands an nually for exoort. This means ZOO.- 000 tons of pineapples alone, of which a considerable quantity comes through the Columbia river gateway In addition to this, the island of Ha waii uses annually $2,000,000 worth of box shooks and an equal amount of lumber. "It is the opinion of men in close touch with the business of the island that a steamship line permanently established, and preferably one with good passenger accommodations, would soon build up a huge volume of traffic between the islands and the Columbia river ports," concluded Mr. White. UXIT OF FIlili IS COMTTiETED Dock, to Re Xext Undertaking; In Hoqulam District. HOQUIAM, Wash., Aug. 2. (Spe cial.) Completion of the first unit in Grays Harbor port commission's scheme of development so far as fill ing is concerned, was announced to day by C. R. Wright, assistant en gineer.

Pier No. 1, will next be completed adjoining this acreage which will be given over entirely to the use of lessees. The next unit will require about 500,000 cubic yards of earth to level it up for use, ac cording to Mr. Wright. Plans are go ing forward, to get railroad connec tions in booh, so that material for the docks may be shipped directly to the place where it is to be used.' Work started April 1, on the unit just com pleted, and part of the time three shifts have been working with the dredge. It is anticipated it will take two months and a half to complete the second fill. THADE ESTIMATE EORXE OUT Marked1 Increase In Portland's For. elgn Commerce Shown.

DRINKER HACKED WITH AXil: VICTIM IS REPORTED- DY1XG; BROTH Kit IS ACCUSED. Eye Witness Tells How "Woodsman Chopped Tp Emmet Knrfman'i Head- With. Heavy Weapon. SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 2. (Spe cial.) Emmett Kurfman tonight was dying In the Bremerton general hos pital with his head severely chopped with an ax. Fifteen miles from Bremerton, In Mason county, his brother, Charles Kurfman, accused of the murderous attack, sat in his lonely cabin, a rifle across his knees, defying anyone to get him. Residents of the section In which the crime was committed live in con stant dread of Kurfman, it was said. and they -have not dared report the case. Hence, it is not certain that the Mason county authorities know anything about it. At all events, no attempt at an arrest has been made. Posses are being organized in Brem erton to go after Kurfman. According to residents of the sparsely settled community the fight took place Monday after a protracted drinking bout. . William Steward, who was with the two brothers, said they had been arguing all Sunday. The argument was alleged to have reached a climax when Emmett Kurfman was said to have drawn a knife and to have slashed at his brother. He tripped as he lunged and fell to the ground. While the brother lay helpless at his feet. Steward said. Charles Kurf man picked up. an ax and struck him repeatedly on the head, using the sharp edge of the implement. Hours passed before anyone dared gc to Emmett Kurfman's assistance, and it was yesterday morning before he was taken to Bremerton. Kurfman's skull was fractured in half a dozen places and his face was battered past recognition. Doctors said only his remarkable physique had kept him alive and that he could not live longer than a few hours. Kurfman's neighbors declared the party" which culminated in the tragedy was one of a series, the two brothers and their friends having gathered every Saturday night for drinking orgy. In one of these bouts two weeks ago Louis Griff was stabbed, but not fatally. The region is far removed from any settlement and is without police protection. The people who live there are wary of treading on each others' toes. SPONSOR BARS LIQUOR Ten-Year-Old Girl to Dedicate Bat tleship Without Champagne. THE OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Washington, D.
