' " versity of Oregon School of Commerce.
'. ; They come from consular agencies of
. " the United States, and no agency nas
" fccen too remote to send the desired
r information.
As a result, a mass of information
- 1 as been assembled that serves to guide
' the box manufacturers of the Pacific
Joithnest in determining their ability
to compete in the world s markets.
Several Survey Proposed.
This world's survey of the box shook
market is one of a number of concrete
attempts. proceeding from several
sources, to get Oregon industries on a
permanent yeararound basis. Of these
: attempts, the State University's depart
ment of industrial survey has several
under way. One is a world survey, of
Ibe market for condensed milk, which
looks ahead to ultimate great expan
sion of the dairy industry. Another is
a world survey of the canned and dried
fruit market, which looks - to saving
and building up the vast orchard in
dustry upon which Oregonians have
embarked since 1905. Considerable
work is being done also upon poiaio
markets.
' The scope of the box shook inquiry
is shown by the names of places from
which consular agencies have so far
reported. A few of them are:

The survev was inaugurated amon
the University School of Commerce, ot
which H. B. Miller, of Portland, is di-
rector: the Northwestern Association
of Box Manufacturers, of which J. B.
Knann. of Portland, is manager, and
the United States Consular Service.
Definite luetlon Forwarded.
The Box Manufacturers' Association
. compiled a list of questions so specific
as to cover most of the foreign infor
mation an Oregon or Washington man
ufacturer would require in oraer 10
know whether he could furnish box
s-hooks. to a given field. Mr. Miller and
the liepartnu nt of Commerce at Wash
ington. D. C. reviewed the questions,
after which the department delegated
Mr. Miller the right to forward these
questions to every American Consulate
1 .1 1 -I T -.3 . !..;., mttnna nf tha
State Department, replies were to be
sent directly to Mr. Miller, who Is an
ex-Consul-General from the United
States to China.
The procedure was efTective in bring
ing complete and prompt responses. As
the information comes 111 it is tabulat
ed and mad? ready for the practical use
of the manufacturer.
nox lnker Learn of Market!.
"The attention of the Northwest box
manufacturers is being called to the
prospective good markets, and we are
establishing a correspondence with the
consumers or importer represented in
the markets reported upon. ' said Man
ager Knapp. to whose association the
data arc referred by Director Miller.
"When all replies have been received,
it is our intention to prepare a chron
ological statement of the requirements
of the principal box markets so as to
make the information immediately
available in tangible form. Probably
we shall also prepare a world map.
indicating the box shook requirements
'f all markets reported and by a color
sjs'eni indicate the ability of North
west manufacturers, to ship to these
markets."
SeMndlnmla AYorat Competitor.
Oregon and Washington find their
principal competition in box shooks
from Scandinavia. Quebec and possibly
Japan. The Norwegian woods produce
a strong, odorless box shook, and as
Inner is cheaper in the European for
ests and mills and on the European
dorks than correspondingly in the Pa
cific NnrthH-est. the Scandinavian coun
tries have so far had the bulk of the
trade in Northern European countries.
"The aliie of this survey is two
fold: it shows us where the business
is and it shows us where the busi
ness isn't. Of the two. I believe the
latter is the move valuable. It wouldl
Jiavo cost our box shook manufactur
ers thousands of dollars to amass In-
mviduaiiy trie information that has
been collected and furnished by these
dozens of consuls for the University
J-n-hool of ( ommcrcc." said George M.
Cornwall, editor of the Timberman.
Price Kailr Figured.
"When thi Information ) classified
ana i ui iu.-ikmi t.v a mill man. he checks
up tne transportation item, and knows
immediately at what price he can lay
down his box shooks in a given con
sular district. From the consular data
le knows the prevailing price charged
in that district by foreign competi
tors. If he can compete he knows
what to do: if not, he has wasted no
money prospecting.
"It will take time to develop defi
nite markets as a result of this sur
vey, but slowly and surely the mar
kets will come. The item of trans
portation and rates must be worked
out simultaneously.
"One of the revelations in this sur
vey is the market for barrel staves
and barrel material." said H. B. Miller,
director of the survey. "This is well
worth careful investigation by the
barrel manufacturers here. We shall
be glad to fiit nish them with a list of
users aud dealers."

City Treasurer Adams sounded the

Winter.
The first alarm was yet ringing
when Motorcycle Patrolmen Gould

out of the police garafre and set off
for the City Hall at top speed. Jerk
ing their revolvers loose in the hol
sters while speeding the several blocks
distance, for they knew nothing of
what was wrong, the two motorcycle
men rushed up the steps of the City
Hall almost before Mr. Adams had
reached the door.
"Two and one-half minutes since I
sounded the alarm." said Mr. Adams
smiling. "Guess the safe is pretty
well guarded."
"Half a minute later the police tour

Women's clubs all over Portland are
now debating the much-mooted ques
tion as to whether "Hypocrites," a pic
ture play" which opens today at the
Peoples Theater, is decent.
The burden of contention admittedly
turns on the fact that the character of
"Naked Truth" in "Hypocrites" is
played by Miss Margaret Edwards, a
beautiful nude young woman. 17 years
of age.
Los Angeles club leaders ana tne
knrrelano board of censors have con
demned the picture. In Portland the
Board of Censors and the Mayor unan
imously gave it their official O. K.,
while a majority of tne women wno
