f
Iluge Volume of Trade Exclusive
of Steam Schooner and Other
Coastwise Commerce.
In two years Portland has gained
27 steamship services extending to
leading world ports, according to cal
culations of H. L. Hudson, manager
of the traffic bureau Jointly con
ducted by the Port of Portland com
mission and commission of public
docks-. The estimate, says Mr. Hudson,
-is exclusive of steam schooher serv

ment, bave kept pace, working out
J' nances in numerous ways over con
ditions preceding the war.
War Conditions Are Changed.
The establishment and growth of
tnependabie lines have wrought an
futogether different situation than
prevailed during the war, when the
major movement of tonnage was
outward ana represented principally
fin the fleet of new ships built, out-
itted and loaded at Portland for war
equirementfs.
One striking feature of the prevall-
ng marine movement, bearing on Eu
ropean business, is the volume of par
cel business in grain, lumber and
isome commodities of lesser impor
tance, which has tended to reduce the
mumber of privately chartered ships
for full cargoes. Especially does this
'apply to grain, which in former days
Jwaa handled exclusively aboard wind
jammers and- tramps fixed by the

ie difference today, as compared

in the number of lines, as the American-Hawaiian

American - Hawaiian having been a

XSE OF SHEERLEGS UNLIKELY
Unstallation at Terminal No. 4 Is
M Held Improbable for Present.
II For. the present there seems little
Sikelihood that the commission of
ublic docks will consider the Instal
ation of sheerlegs as part of the
quipment at terminal No. 4 for lift
ng weighty cargo, as has been sug
gested ry certain steamship interests.
Jhe Willamette Iron & Steel Works
ad advised the commission of the
availability of sheerlegs at its new
plant, and rates have been fixed for
commercial lifts. In addition there
is a crane at the Aibina dock of the
O.-W. ft & N., which has been used
iat various times for lifting cargo.
The Willamette sheerlegs was in
service at the old plant of the own
ers, having been erected during the
rusn ol marine wont curing the war
and in that service is credited with
having made more than 600 lifts of
boilers that weighed from 46 tons to
close to 70 tons. The gear is located
on the Willamette dock and has been
called on a tew times during the last
year to aid in discharging coils of ;
cable and similar heavv consiimmpntii i
' For all ordinary heavy cargo, such as
is often included in offshore and in
tercostal shipments, the commission
has locomotive cranes and similar
gear so that it would be only in the
case of unusually heavy consignments
that ships would be shifted to one
of the private plants to take advan
tage of lifting equipment.
on the facilities and general details
The assumption is that in taking of
ficial notice of the drydock property
the navy intends to get minute in
formation relative to the capacities,
the character of work possible on
the dock, as well as marine repair
plants in operation here that bid for
marine repair and overhauling jobs.
The- navy maintains adequate dry
docks at the Bremerton and Mare
Island yards, but could use Portland
for emergency work and for lifting
vessels that later may be at the
Astoria station.

EXAMINER REPORTS TO COM.
MERCE COMMISSION'.
Freight From West to Points Near
Boston Are Declared to
Be Reasonable.
WASHINGTON. D. C, March 15.
Existing rates on raw wool from the
west destined to manufacturing points
around Boston were held reasonable
today by an interstate commerce com
mission examiner, who reported to
the commission his recommendations
after investigating the complaint of
the Boston wool trade association.
The rates attacked by the associa
tion were chiefly the charges for com
bination rail and water hauls
On wool produced in the west and
moved to the Pacific coast for trans
ahipment via the Panama canal.
Though holding the present charges
reasonable, the examiner declared
that the railroad practice of refusing
to halt cars moving to the Pacific
coast at various points along the
lines to pick up small wool shipments,
which privilege is given to cars mov
ing east with an all-rail haul of wool
in view, constituted a discrimination
against the rail and water traffic.
This, it was suggested, the railroads
should be required to remove. The
report will not be made effective un
til approved by the commission itself.

Portland Does Not Get Full Credit
for Its Business, Declares E. C
Sammons In Address.
Some means of showing the actual
business transacted through Port
land banks, so that it will give the
city proper credit for its volume, is
being sought by bankers, according to
a statement made before the members
of the local branch of the Purchasing
Agents of Oregon at their meeting in
the Hazlewood Tuesday night by .Ed
ward C. Sammons, assistant cashier
of the United States National bank.
He said that the present system does
not accomplish this, for not all paper
handled is credited and that, if it
were, the showing would be even bet
ter than it has been.
Mr. Sammons also detailed the
status of the federal reserve eystem
and told of its relationship to its
member banks and declared it had
successfully carried the country
throueh what otherwise would have
been a great financial panic. He eaid
that only 3 per cent of the business
of the country Is done in casn, tne
other 97 being by paper.
