Eight Vessels Launched by Co
lumbia River Corporation
. Since Dec. 1, 1917.
AVERAGE ONE A MONTH
Mrs. John H. Beeson Sponsor for
Second Boat of Isherwood Design..
Twenty-seven Steel Ships Are
Launched at Portland to Date.
Beven steel hulls have been launched
by the Columbia Rjver Shipbuilding
Corporation this year, an average of
one vessel a month, though they were
not actually spaced 30 days apart.
Eight ships have. been floated In all at
that plant, the first having left the
ways December 1, 1917.
The last vessel to enter the water
was the Western Plains, which was
launched at 4:11 o'clock yesterday aft
ernoon. Mrs. John H. Beeson, wife of
the corporation's surgeon, was sponsor.
The event was fixed for 4:16 o'clock,
but as Mrs. Beeson and members of her
party were already there, the shipyard
band had rendered three selections
most creditably and everything was
set for releasing: the big ship, Walter
Brown, superintendent, gave the word
and the trigger was tripped.
Second of Isherwood Design.
The Western Plains Is the second of
the Isherwood design to be floated, the
Western Coast, which left the ways
July 6, being a sister ship, and there
1 are two more to be finished, after
which the corporation will turn out
only the transverse types, such as were
built before the Isherwood carriers
were laid down. In the place vacated
yesterday by the Western Plains one
of the transverse ships is to be laid
down tomorrow.
To date there have been 27 steel
ships launched at Portland, 25 of them
for the American Government and two
for the British, representing a total
of 206,600 deadweight tons. Of the lot
the Albina Engine & Machine Works
has turned out ships of 3300 and 3800
tons, a total of 21,800 tons; the North
west Steel Company has floated 8800-
ton vessels, representing 96,800 tons.
and the Columbia River Shipbuilding
Corporation 8800-ton ships, aggregat
ing 70,400 tons.

NEW STEAMER STARTS NORTH
Estebeth Will Have Long Mall Route
on Stormy Coast.
TACOMA. Wash., July 20 (Special.)
The Estebeth. trim steamer built by
the Western Boat Company, Tacoma, is
on her way to Juneau. She will go on
the mail route between Juneau. Skag
way and Sitka, thus covering: a mail
route 700 miles long on one or the
stormiest coasts of the country.
The Estebeth is a combination freight
and passenger steamer 65 feet Ions and
equipped with an 80-horsepower engine.
The cost of the Estebeth was approxi
mately $20,000. She is fully equipped.
Kaiser & Davis, of Juneau, own the
boat, which, was named after Dr. and
Mrs. Kaiser's twin daughters, Estella
and Elizabeth.

LUMBER MILLS BUSY
GOVERNMENT ORDERS TO DATE
AGGREGATE 110,000.000 FEET.
Gratifying Feature of Past Week Ia Big
Amount of Commercial Business.
Car Supply Weaker.
Government orders now being dis
tributed to iumoer manufacturers of
the Northwest will keep them busy for
several months. The aggregate of fir .
orders already placed mounts to more
than 1 10. 000. 000 feet 1
ti. o,oi. f i.
elude 63,000,000 feet of cantonment
stock; 45,000000 feet for Eastern ship
yards, and 3,600,000 feet for the Navy.
Other orders are to be forthcoming, ac
cording to the weekly barometer of the
West Coast Lumbermen's Association.
A gratifying feature of the week was
the amount of commercial buying. The
aggregate of new business of this class
entered on the books of association
members in the week was 65,969,247
feet.
Production for the week reflected In
activity in many plants, this being be
cause of shutdowns for the annual mid
summer repairs. The week's aggregate
was slightly more than 20 per cent be
low normal, the figure being 67,955,462
feet.
Although car supply is reported
weaker than it was a month ago, the
mills shipped, for the week, an ag
gregate of 71,939,170 feet, which was
5,978,923 feet more than they produced.
This excess of shipments over produc
tion served further to accentuate the
shortage of stocks which has been ap
parent for the last six weeks.
SHIP PLAXS UP TO BUILDERS
Suggestions to Be Before Committee
at Meeting Tomorrow.
Duplicate plans sent shipbuilders of
the Oregon district, covering a tenta
tive draft of a 5000-ton wooden steamer,
are to be passed on and their Ideas re
duced to communications to be in the
hands of a special committee tomor
row morning, so a meeting at 10 o'clock
will be marked by actual work being
started toward the completion of the
plans and specifications. The plans are
to be taken to Philadelphia by a com
mittee as soon as ready, and final ap
proval of the Emergency Fleet Cor
poratlon will pave the way for their
construction at all Pacific Coast yards.
Quarters have been arranged for In
the Northwestern National Bank build
ing so the committee will be in close
touch -with the Oregon officials of the
Emergency Fleet Corporation and may
have access to all other plans of stand
ard and special design ships being
turned out in the yards. Unless the
work is held back plans should be in
shape the fore part of August.
STAXDIFER YARD RUSHES WORK
North Portland Plant to Lay Down
Latest Carriers Ordered.
In place of the two twin-screw Ferris
ships launched at the Vancouver wood
en yard of the G. M. Standifer Con
struction Corporation a week ago yes
terday, new keels have gone into place
and framing is under way. Another
vessel had been floated there May 30, in
place of which another is well along
so there are three being rushed and
three others are well advanced toward
the stage of completion.
Four vacant ways at the North Port-

IDLE DOCK LEASED
Dalles-Columbia Line to Make
Needed Improvements.
MORE VESSELS ARE ADDED
Pioneer Steamboat Landing Later
Will Be Used br Other Companies
Operating Out or Portland.
River Business Grows.
Ash-street dock, pioneer of the
steamboat landings in the main harbor,
and which has been idle for about a
year, has been leased by The Dalles
Columbia line, primarily for Its own
SHIPBUILDING CORPORATION.
4
i
purposes In connection with the opera
tion of the steamers J. X. Teal and
Twin Cities between Portland and The
Dalles. Later other lines are to loin
with them in the occupancy of the
dock.
The property extends from Pine to
Ankeny street, the entrance being at
the foot of Ash street. For the present
The Dalles-Columbia line will occupy
the north half of the dock, using the
administration building at Ash street
for Its offices. When the motorship
Mount Hood was launched, December 4,
1917, at the Supple-Ballin plant, she
failed to check In midstream and float
ed against the dock, causing part of the
upper platform to fall. That will be
removed by the lessees and. repairs
made on the lower dock, while, as other
sections of the dock are leased to dif
ferent lines, repairs will be undertaken.
The O.-W. R. & N. owns the property
and of late there has been talk of the
company rehabilitating it for its Asto
ria steamers, but the execution of a
lease to The Dalles-Columbia line is
taken as showing such a programme Is
not contemplated. The dock was aban
doned by the owners when it was decld
ed to consolidate Its inland and ocean
vessels under one head at Ainsworth
QOCk.
The Dalles-Columbia Interests.
hlch
recently inaugurated a service between
Portland and Arlington with the steam-
r Twin Cities, later adding the steamer
'. N. Teal, have eliminated Arlington
and all of the upper river territory,
proceeding only as far as The Dalles.
The People's line, which has had the
steamer Tahoma for several years, and
chartered the steamer Dalles City Fri
day from the Regulator line, also oper
ates as far as The Dalles, so there are
four steamers on the route, a service
that was not expected could be main
tained less than a year ago.
The companies are bidding for auto
mobile business at both terminals as
well as In ferrying them between the
Cascade Locks and Hood River, and, in
spite of competition, they report being
busy.
RIVER WORK NEGLECTED
WILLAMETTE CITIES STIRRED BY
LACK OF APPROPRIATION.
Only Enough Money Remains on Hand
to Maintain Improvements Made
Daring Previous Seasons.
Lack of an appropriation for the Up
per Willamette River In the last rivers
and harbors bill, and the fact no steam
boat service is enjoyed there at present.
is said to be stirring commercial in
terests of cities located along the upper
reaches to Induce Congress to remem
ber the Upper Willamette in the next
bill; otherwise it is feared much of the
channel work undertaken up to the
present will be destroyed.
The united States engineers have
been frugal during past years, so there
remains enough money on hand to oper
ate the steamer Mathloma as a dredge
and snagboat during the 1918 season,
but only on maintenance, no provision
being made for new work or perma
nent Improvements. The vessel will be
Btarted this week for the Yamhill
River, to remove a bar below the locks,
so if the steamer Relief is operated to
McMinnville, there will be no impedl
ment to her movements so far as the
channel is concerned. i
Usually $36,300 has been caraied in
the rivers and harbors bill for the Up
per Willamette, and its expenditure is
said to have brought the channel to a
point now where it is comparatively
easy to maintain It. but should an ap
proprlation not be made in the next
bill, so one season would pass without
the channel being looked after, much
more money and equipment would then
be necessary to undo the harm.
Judge McKnight, of Corvallis, who
has evinced an Interest In river condi
tions, was In the city yesterday, and
learned that the money to be utilized
during 1918 was left over, and that
there had been no provision In the bill
for new work. The expectation Is that
he will organize Corvallis business men
to bring the situation before the Ore
gon delegation at Washington forcibly
to back up any recommendation of the
Government engineers.
The waterway is not In use ' by
through steamers, the Oregon City
Transportation Company having dis
continued Its vessels between Portland
and Corvallis In the Spring. It Is hoped
others will undertake 'their operation,
particularly should an Increase In rail
road rates insure greater patronage to
the water line, with Increased revenue
to justify them being brought out
again,

both of Ban Francisco, and J. F. Duthle
and David Rodgers. of Seattle, today were
named as a committee to frame a satis
factory achedule of wages for the entire
Pacific Coast, which la to be submitted
at the Philadelphia conference with the
Shipping Board and Wage Adjustment
Board August 6. The committee was named
by Charles A. Plex, prior to his departure
for the Kast today. Charles M. Schwab and
the rest of the party rejoined Mr. Plea and
Counsel Cuthell here after a visit to Rainier
National Park, and the entire party left
over the Milwaukee at 7 o'clock. The wage
committee is expected to meet here to
morrow. The steamship West Gambo. one of the
Skinner A Eddy ships launched July 4.
was delivered to the Shipping Board today
following a successful trial trip, and la the
first vessel of the Independence day fleet
of the whole country -to go in service.
Charles M. Schwab congratulated the build
ers on the feat before he left Seattle.
The W. R. Grace Company has been named
by the Shipping Board to handle the load
ing of the steamship West Coast, a Portland-built
vessel, and the West Gambo.
Both are in the naval aervlce.
GAS BUOY IS WRECKED
CC1DE
MARK AT CLATSOP SPIT
" DESTROYED,
Mishap at Entrance to Colombia River
Necessitates Revival of Old Jetty
Sand. Range.
Exactly how important Is Gas Buoy
No. 12, at the entrance to the Columbia
River, where it marks Clatsop Spit,
was demonstrated yesterday, when the
destruction of the superstructure, by
a cigar-shaped log raft towed against
it, necessitated the revival- of the old
Jetty Sands range, on the south side,
so vessels can be safeguarded when
covering the course at night. Robert
Warrack, superintendent of the Seven
teenth Lighthouse District, expects that
a new gas buoy will be in place in
about two weeks. Meanwhile vessels
bound here are being informed of the
change by wireless.
A telephone message from Astoria
yesterday advised Superintendent War
rack of the accident. The raft, which
was from Wallace Slough and was be
ing towed to San Diego for the Ben
son Logging Company, ran against the
buoy, tearing away virtually all of the
structure above the water. Superln
tendent Warrack says that In its pres
ent condition it Is not even a depend
able day mark, for navigators will be
unable to pick it up any distance away.
Another gas buoy Is at the Tongue
Point buoy station and a third Is on
the way from the east, but all tenders
In the district are busy at other ports
and the re-establishment of the light
must watt a while. It is not thought
by Superintendent Warrack that the
damaged buoy will sink, so it will be
easy to remove and replace with the
proper gear.
The Jetty Sands range was In serv
ce before No. 12 was established, and
ince then the front light of the range
has been maintained for the benefit o
fishermen during the season. The rear
light was not in use, but yesterday
Superintendent Warrack ordered It re
lighted and attended until the gas aid
Is available.
While navigators have depended on
No. 12. the Jetty Sands range will mark
the turning point. Inbound vessels
hold to a course in line with the "wink
ing" range at Fort Columbia, and, on
"lining up" the Jetty Sands range, will
turn there for Fort Stevens.

Mr. Conway was married laBt year, but
In spite of family ties decided to go
into the service. Officials of the Shav

the highest terms, and their regret at
his departure Is only offset through
the fact that they appreciate his enlist

Shipbuilders Return From Pu-
get Sound Conference. .
SITUATION IS ANALYZED
Emergency Fleet Officials Bent on
Keeping Production Within Lim
its of Labor and Costs; Distri
bution of Man Power Aim.
Shipbuilders who have returned from
Puget Sound cities, yhere they at
tended a conference on the Macey wage
scale with representatives of all ship-
uuiiaing plants and crafts on the Pa
cific Coast, are analyzing the effects
or me visit to the district of Charles
M. Schwab, Director-General. and
Charles Piez. vice-president, of the
Emergency Fleet Corporation. The
most prominent of their deductions is
that the officials are bent on keeping
production within the limits of labor
and costs. They not only have dis
couraged new plants, but have cur
tailed expansion of some already es
tablished. The project of the Columbia River
Shipbuilding Corporation here for two
aaaitlonal ways, which are now under
construction, is probably the only case
ot expansion in a steel plant permitted
io proceed uninterrupted. The new
yard of the Northwest Steel Company.
wnicn seemed assured up to the dav
tne party arrived, has been postponed
and the came Policy has been an.
puea to puget Sound plants.
Expansions Not to Be Made.
Commenting on that nhasa of the trln
of the officials, Joseph R. Bowles, presi
dent or tne JNortnwest steel Company,
yesteraay sate:
The result was that, after a full
analysis of this situation, rather than
deplete further the supply of men re
quired ror farms and general uses, no
further expansions tn the production
of war Industry products ships and
auxiliaries therefor particularly
wouia De arranged. Hence, our new
four-way plant was laid aside for the
present. The question of building a
piant xor production of forgings, steel
castings and bars for use in ship con
struction, also met with disfavor, as
aia ail other applications for exnan
sion which might make further drafts
upon, the already limited man Dower
or tnis district.
The same procedure was followed
on Puget Sound, where all plans for
new extensions were abandoned, and
in addition, arrangements which had
already been completed, and construc
tion work started on extensions of two
or three of the larere shinbuildimr
piants. were stopped, and that district
therefore, will proceed only with the
snip ways now in operation.
I am informed that like action ban
been, taken in regard to expansions in
California. All shipbuilding Dlants
were, however, assured that further
contracts would be awarded in keeping
with their progress of launching and
delivery during the period of the war."
As to the wage adjustments all mat
ters were not dl.postl of, the Emer
gency Fleet Corporation officials ar
ranging for a general conference to be
held at Philadelphia, the headquarters
of the corporation, on August J. To
that Portland will send a delegation of
five, four representing the shipyards
and one the auxiliary manufacturers,
such as machine shop and foundry
operators, who are to be placed in the
same category as regards wages. From
Puget Sound there will be seven repre
sentatives. Labor delegates. Including
the presidents of international unions,
also will be present. In the main, it is
said the session will deal with In
equalities In the scale, making adjust
ments where deemed advisable, and
correcting existing misinterpretations
of the scale, as well as extending the
classifications of workmen in some
renpecus.
The understanding Is that on the
conference reaching a decision In those
matters It will become effective Im
mediately. The Government is the sole
dictator of -wages and the Philadelphia
meeting is counted on to place a
quietus on practices in vogue in some
districts of paying in excess of the
scale in order to draw men from their
localities.
Employment Not Proportionate.
Regarding the number of men in war
Industries on the Coast. Mr. Bowles
said:
The Fleet Corporation officials dis
covered on the Pacific Coast that
somewhat too large a proportion of
our man power was engaged in ship
building, spruce production and allied
war Industries; that out of the total
of about 400.000 working in shipbuild
ing plants In the United States, ap
proximately 100,000 or 25 per cent of
the whole, were In yards located in
Oregon and Washington, and almost
as many more in California. . In ad
dition, there are In excess of 30,000 in
spruce industry, which must be at
least doubled by reason of a recent
call of the Signal Corps for an in
crease frorn 10,000,000 to 30,000,000 feet
monthly.
