Managing- to work at least two

vith three gangs employed on three
fcf them, the Waterfront Employers'
:nion managers in charge of han
lirig men from the hall, yesterday
xpressed themselves as sanguine they
Ivould fare as well today, with their

The day passed without disorder on

nd non-union longshoremen were
oncerred. Additional policemen were
;etailed to assist at docks and in
ransporting men from the hail at
fbecond and Oak streets.
Shipping; Board Plan Accepted. .
Union longshoremen reported that
'iey had accepted a proposal from the
nlted States shipping board to han
le cargo on Its vessels and a com
littee called on J. W. Crichton, rep
eser.ting the division of operations

Longshoremen Act Quickly.
Andrew Madsen, on .behalf of the
inlon longshoremen, said the men
iad met on the receipt of the tele
.ram from Washington and agreed
o accept the proposition, and that it
vas their understanding Director
enkins was coming to make ar-ang-ements.
Two vessels of the shipping board
leet are in the harbor the West
Ceats, which is In the oriental line
f the Columbia Pacific Shipping
ompany, and the Depere, loading for
est coast ports in the service of -the
ieneral Steamship corporation.
Operators Are Not Pleased. . . .
It Is contended by shipping inter
sts that the contracts under which
iie vessels are handled by private
perators call for the latter to at-
'nd to stevedoring details, so .that
he letting of work is out of the
ands of the board. Telegrams were
ent to the board's coast headtfuar
ers at San Francisco to inquire into
rie move, which is not pleasing .to
perators in view of their support of
:ie action of the Waterfront Employ
rs' union for an Independent hall and
Itered working conditions. T. V.
'Connor, a shipping board member,
'or years the active head of the In-
rnational Longshoremen s associa
on, is credited by shipping men with
aving interested himself in behalf of
he Portland union.
Negroei To Be XMscltarsred.
At a conference held yesterday be-
ween Mayor Baker, Chief of Police
enkins. Sheriff Hurlburt, Captain of
'olice Circle, Martin Pratt, chief
eputy sheriff: John H. Burgard,
lairman, and G. B. Hegard, chief en
ineer of the commission of public
ocks, and Otto Kettenbach of the
IVaterfront Employers' union, the
mployment of one gang of 16 ne
roes at terminal No. 2, in handling
argo aboard the motorship Booby
11a, was discussed at length and an
greement reached that they would
e discharged. The presence of the
egroes on the dock had prompted a
on-union white gang to stop work.
Only Whites Are Protected.
It was agreed that ample protec
ion would be afforded white men en
gaged by the employers, of which
here are said to be many in need of
'ork, but that police would not be
oncerned in guarding Mexicans, Jap
nese or negroes. There was a dif
erence of opinion expressed on the
aterfront as to the elimination of
rie negroes from the gangs, steam
hip men Insisting that they were
mployed on Puget sound and at San
rancisco, a number of them at the
itter port having worked since the
aterfront strike of 1919.
Union men continued picketing.
ivhile men with banners were sent
hrough downtown streets and about
ocks advising laborers that a strike
as on.
Workers Handled by Motor.
Men were sent from the hall to
ocks in autobusses and it was said
t the hall that the enrollment of
orkers was going ahead.
Report from Vancouver, B. C, that
nion longshoremen and employers
vere in negotiation over the same
onditions as employers have put into
fi'ect here, were discussed in snip
ing circles. In the event the British
'olumbia port adopts the schedule all
arbors on the coast will be on a
arity as to the scale and working
onditions, the employers said.

possibilities for an exclusive lighter
age proposition and in connection
with the movement of local products
it is said the prospects of handling
cargo between terminals, as well as
assembling shipments for moving to
terminals, bound to deep-water ports,
figure in the calculations. Mr. Lillico

FILL TO BE
MOCKS BOTTOM DEVELOPMENT
PART OP PORT SCHEME.
Details of Scheme W ill Be Taken
Up With Property Owners by
Commission Today.
Included in subjects tc be discussed
at an adjourned session of the Port
of Portland commission this after
noon will be a proposed fill on
Mocks bottom, material to be made
available from channel wqrk under
way on the west side of Swan island.
Property owners in the Guilds lake
district have begun negotiations with
the port for filling land there though
they have not reached a point of en
tering into an agreement. As it is
estimated there will be sufficient
material from the east and west
channel to take care of Mocks bot
tom, it Is the desire of the port com
mission to ascertain the attitude of
the iand owners in the latter section
so the dredging programme may be
fixpd definitely.
The plan under consideration Is to
organize improvement districts, so
the property can be assessed, but with
no interest charged for ten years,
while time for paying the amount is
to run 20 years.

Congress to Be Asked for
Fund to Complete Work.
BIG PORT HELD POSSIBLE
Russell J. Hubbard Says Develop
ment of Umpqua District De
pends on Federal Help.
Future development of the heavily-
timbered areas c western Douglas
county, and the establishment of
big port at the mouth of the UmpQua
river, depend entirely upon the atti
tude of the government in the quea
tion of financial aiu, according to
Russell J. Hubbard of the Winches
ter Bay Lumber company, who
preparing- to leave for "Washington to
ask congress for an appropriation to
complete the jetty that has been
started.
In the belief that In time the gov
ernment would come to its aid the
port of Reedsport expended a large
sum of money in the partial com
pletion of a jetty for the purpose o:
deepening the channel at the mouth
of the Umpqua. The government so
far has failed to furnish any of th
$553,000 estimated to complete the
task, and Mr. Hubbard with others
Is endeavoring to bring about federal
aid.
Good Faith Pointed Ont.
"We have shown good faith and
spent our own money but the gov
ernment has not aided us," declared
Mr. Hubbard yesterday. "At the pres
ent time the channel at the mouth of
the river Is constantly changing. It
is not sufficiently deep to permit
ocean going ships to enter and load
cargoes of lumber. Three mills are
located on Winchester bay and while
all have been shipping lumber to
California this has been accom
plished through the use of barges.
"If the jetty was completed ac
cording to our plans trans-Facifi
lumber carriers could go over the bar
with heavy cargoes without danger,
As conditions now are the handling
of lumber by barges i a losing prop
osition. If the channel at the bar
were deeper we could carry cargoes
of 1,000,000 feet on each barge,
whereas now it is impossible to carry
more than 850,000 feet- It costs $350
a day to operate one of these barges.
Many times we are held up for days
on account of conditions on the bar.
If the jetty was completed and the
bar depth increased we could pay
our expenses of operation through
the additional cargo we could carry
on our barges. Our losses through
being held up would also be elimi
nated.
Bar's Expense Is Grcatm
Mr. Hubbard callea attention to the
fact that during the past seven month;
one concern on Winchester bay has
been bar-bound 76 days at a total ex
pense of $26,000 and that during this
time it has cost the same concern
$1750 for bar soundings.
"The port of Umpqua is composed of
a district of 613 square miles," con
tinued Mr. Hubbard. "Private and
federal timber holdings In this area
are 11,000,000,000 feet. Already two
bond issues have been sold to com
plete the work cf the jetty. One of
$200,000 was issued in 1917 and an
other of $250,000 in 1921. The first
was used for the construction of 4500
feet of the jetty, which was completed
in 1919. The remaining funds have
been apportioned for use In co-operation
with the government. The entire
area surrounding the proposed harbor
is approximately 4500 square miles
and this contains 56,000,000,000 of fed
era! and privately-owned timber."
Jetty Would Open Harbor.
That the supply of timber In the
United States is rapidly diminishing
and that Oregon eventually will be
the lumber feeder for the entire coun
try is being emphasized by Mr. Hub
bard in his efforts for the port (level
opmenL
By the building 01 tne jetty one 01
the best harbors on the Pacific coast
could be opened up ana the timbered
resources of the country on the lower
Umpqua would be offered to the
world," continued Mr. Hubbard. "It is
important in the development of Ore
gon that we receive federal aid and
develop the port oi umpqua. xne ira
provement of the harbor means that
the natural wealth of the Umpqua
valley will be retained and used for
the upbuilding of the territory almost
equal the size of Connecticut. The sum
asked for is only $276,000, or less than
1 cent a 1000 feet on the government-
owned, tax-exempt timber in the area,
and less than the normal tax for one
year on timber of the came amount in
private hands.

Ill TP BE MOVED
DREDGE PORTLAND TO WORK
OFF TERMINAL NO. 1.
Decision Causes, Satisfaction
to
Mariners Because of Having to
Give Spot Wide Berth.
Word was passed Tuesday that
the dredge Portland would begin
the removal of a mound of material
deposited in mid-stream off terminal
No. 1, which was created in clearing
away in front of dock fronts on the
west side of the harbor. The dredge
Columbia was unable to deDOsit the
material ashore without blocking the
channel. The removal, of the mound
is the cause of satisfaction to mari
ners, who have had to give it wide
berth in handling large vessels
through the harbor. The material
will be deposited on land the com
mission of public docks acquired for
the second unit of terminal No. 2.
The Columbia removed the last
sediment in front of terminal No. 1
last night, while the Portland ended
dredging along the face of the
Southern Pacific siding, below the
east approach of the Burnside-street
bridge. The former has been assigned
to the middle ground between the
rydock plant at St. Johns and the
oil docks on the west bank. con
siderable material is to be removed,
while there is a small area of rocky
formation as well which is to be
drilled and blasted. Dredging to
prepare for the drilling will require
a month.
The Columbia will continue on to
terminal No. 4 where material is to
be dredged on the northerly front of
the property and with that finished
there will be virtually the projected
depth of 35 feet available between
hasbor lines from the Broadway
bridge to the terminal.
The dredge Tualatin, working in
the west channel at Swan island,
material from which is being utilized
as a fill in the Guilds lake district
where the new railroad terminal is
under way, is reported to be keeping
up her average and material is being
pumped ashore at a lively rate.

LUCKENBACH FLEET
ISIlCfeSEDTOII
Eastern Soldier Purchased
From Shipping Board.
MORE SERVICE ASSURED
Better Than Tfeetly Sailing From
, Portland to Atlantic Ports
to Be Established.
Through the . purchase of the
steamer Eastern Soldier from the
shipping board and her assignment
to the service) between north At
lantic ports . and the pacific coast,
the Luckenbach line has a fleet of
11 vessels on that route that insures
Portland and other cities better
than a v eekly schedule. The steamer
Ponset, taken over from the govern
ment fleet,' will Join the coterie ply
ing between Gulf ports and the Pa
cific side, making a total of six
steamers. In the latter service the
steamer Hattie Luckenbach. arriving
from the Gulf last night, is inaugu
rating a monthly schedule direct to
Houston and Galveston.
Such are features in the operation
of the big line concerning this har
bor as pointed out yesterday by H.
C. Cantelow, general manager on the
Pacinc coast for the company, who
is making his initial inspection trip
through the northern territory since
taking over the reins at San Fran
Cisco a few months ago. Mr. Cante
low will go south today, having cov
ered the British Columbia and Puget
sound districts.
Though dwelling on gains attained
in the trade between Pacific coast
communities and those of the North
Atlantic zone, Mr. Cantelow empha
sizes the Importance of relatively
new development that has followed
the establishment of the gulf service.
Westbound Service Fed.
.-New Orleans and Mobile are
natural gateways and with the
barge services available on the Mis
sissippi river, forming connections
as far upstream as St. Louis and
Kansas City, with even territory be
yond reached at present, it is prov
ing one of the big feeders for the
westbound service," said Mr. Cante
low. "On the other hand there have
been marked increases made in the
way of eastbound cargoes, especially
as to fruit shipments from the Pa
cific slope). When one considers
that with ships operating out of
the gulf and barges on the river run,
commodities are moved by an all
water route, it affords a strong
showing as to what the intercoastal
trade has accomplished.
It has been brought out that the
recent action of Intercoastal confer
ence lines in making low flour rates
to North Atlantic and Gulf ports for
a limited period, due to expire in
June, has prompted some of the most
representative millers of the coast
region to go east for the purpose of
presenting before steamship opera
tors arguments in support of mak
ing the rates permanent and effec
tive on a car-lot basis, the same as
most features of the tariff. As to
that Mr. Cantelow said he has no
knowledge of what Is prospective,
but says the flour rate has drawn an
appreciable amount of new business
to the gulf. . .
Only One Vessel Idle.
Of the fleet of 18 vessels controlled
by the Luckenbach interests only one
is idle, the Mary Luckenbach, she
being a tank steamer. The Eastern
Soldier has been renamed the Lena
Luckenbach and is one of the ships
built in China under contract with
the shipping board. Lewis Lucken
bach of the company was superin
tendent of construction for the gov
ernment in China when the ship was
under construction and it is said to
have been largely on his recom
mendation she was bought. The Pon
set is an ex-German steamer, taken
over as a war prize. Her new name
has not been announced.' Reports
that two other steamers were pur
chased are unconfirmed, according
to Mr. Cantelow.
In company with. J. Gifford Euson,
district agent at Portland, Mr. Cant
elow went over important matters
yesterday and last night and they
will meet with shipping men today.
The waterfront strike is holding the.
attention of the coast manager, in
asmuch as the dispatch of the Hattie
Luckenbach today, and others to fol
low is important. He says the situa
tion at San Francisco is harmonious
and highly satisfactory to both men
and managers and that friction is
buried.
