TRADE DEMANDS SHIPS AM; SHIPMENTS NOW MADE TO RUSSIA ARE FOR SPOT CASH. Call for SWpplng From Europe Ex pected to Follow Rapidly on Heels ot Signing Peace Treaty. OREGONIAN NT3"W3 BTOBAU. "Wash ington. May 81. If only some definite policy toward Russia were announced by the government, trade with Siberia and Russia might be expected to pick up at once with the result that there would soon be no idle ships in Pacific ports, is the information which one gets from the offices of the almost defunct war trade board In this city. As matters stand now, nothing is old to Russia except for cash, which means that when an American exporter makes a delivery at Vladivostok there must be somebody in waiting to pay over the money. Indications are that abundant trade Is held up by this lack of policy to employ all the Idle ships and call for additional tonnage, but it is felt that before this channel of trade Is opened a much greater demand w'ill be corning from Europe by reason of. the signing of the peace treaty. Between golf games, government trade experts are willing and ready to vouchsafe that much Information. They say that the moment the peace treaty is signed and reconstruction starts in European countries, which have been at war, the only question for this country to consider, the Pacific coast as well as the Atlantic will be the problem of finding the shipping sufficient to carry the trade. The United States will be asked to furnish food as never before, in the first few months, and along with this will come the demand for manufac tured products of all kinds. As to opening up the trade channels which lead from our Paciflo coast to Vladi vostok, it Is anticipated that President "Wilson may be induced on his return to do something. The railroad export rates ordered by the railroad administration and put into effect April 21 are expected to restore to the Pacific coast eVery ad vantage of trade with the orient that existed before the war. a long; dry spell. Rain Is needed so badly that unless It comes In the next few days. It will prove disastrous to spring sown grain and corn on un lrrigated lands. The late warm and dry weather has hastened the maturity of crops In gen eral; but in spite of the drouth the valley has never had a better prospect of a heavy yield of fall sown grain. The haying season is on with the first crop of alfalfa, and the strawberry harvest Is in full blast with a good yield. Apples, pears and peaches are a good crop generally. Thinning of these fruits Is In full sway and with the general scarcity of labor it means that every available man. woman and child will be recruited to do this most Im portant Job. Dropping of cherries and plum fruits, due to the early frosts, will cause a light crop in this district. LEWIS IS SMARTEST CAMP MENTAJti TESTS BY GOVERN MENT COVER WIDE FIELD.
