THE SUNDAY OUEGOXTAX. rOKTLAXD. MARCH i, 1921 1R FIBDVUN DROWNED WHEH DRBKE SUIKS Arthur Gardner Not Missed Until Body Is Found. OTHERS OF CREW ESCAPE Preparations to Raise Submerged Hull Arc Brtnj Made by Com mission of Port. The death by drowning of Arthur Gardner, 63 years old, a fireman and water tender on the Port of Portland dredge Willamette when the dredge sank at the foot of Ross island Frl day morning, was revealed yesterday morning when his bodv was recovered by fellow workmen who were explor ing the submerged staterooms with a pike-pole. The body was taken in charge by the coroner's office. The recovery of the body was the first intimation that a fatality had re sulted from the Binktng of the dredge. As Friday was Gardner's day off duty, it was supposed that he had gone ashore, and he was not missed. All Others Accounted For. A careful check of other members of the Willamette's crew of 50 men was made by Captain W. M. Halvor-e-n. master of the dredge, and W. J. Sharp, chief engineer, immediately after Gardner's body was found, and all men were found or accounted for except one who, like Gardner, was off duty Friday. This man later was lo cated ashore. vGardner evidently was taking a morning nap in his bunk when the pipe line broke and foundered the dredge, and probably dll not awaken before his stateroom was under eight feet of water. He was unmarried and had been working on the river for several years. His only known rela tive is a sister, Mrs. A. M. Sabin of Bountiful. Utah. He was a native of Wisconsin. Dredge Will Be Rained. Preparations for the raising of the sunken dredge were well under way yesterday, with empty fuel barges moored alongside the partially sub merged barges. Chains from these barges will be passed under the hull, which then will be raised by house Jacks. A diver will be employed to place the chains, and it is expected that everything will be in readiness for the lift within a week. Some of the equipment for the task may have to be brought from Puget sound, as it is rot available here. Plans also are being prepared by James H. Polhcmus. general manager for the Port of Portland, to equip the port dredges in the future with safety valves In the intake and discharge pipes to prevent a recurrence of such an accident. I'lpe-Llne Break dun Sinking;. The sinking of the Willamette re sulted from the breaking of the pipe line within the hull of the dredge and the consequent pouring of the entire intake into the dredge's interior. She went down in less than fivejninute from the time the pipe burst. VANCOUVER GETS NEW LINES I'ort's Shipping Takes Big Jump in Course of Year. VANCOUVER. B. C March 5. A year ago Vancouver was a seaport without a single locally owned and operated steamer plying deepsea. Even the Canadian Pacific oceap serv ice steamers were registered in Mon treal or England. Now the Canadian government is operating a line to India, another to Australia ami will inaugurate an oriental one next month. The E. D. Kingsley company has commenced a San Francisco freight service. The Coughlan shipyards built three big freighters, and have opened a line to Europe. The Kings ley company plans another vessel tor tle San Franciscorun, and the an nouncement has been made that the Canadian government may start a passenger and freight line to Califor nia this summer. Coughlans contem plate building two 6800 deadweight ton standard freight steamers to add to their own 'fleet. They are expected to be ready this summer. SHIPPING BOARD IS ATTACKED .Movement Launched to Abolish Big Federal Organization. SEATTLE. Wash., March 5. (.Spe cial.) Seattle shipping men today launched a campaign to get indorse ment of the shipping and trade in terests of the country in a plan to abolish the I'nited States shipping board and create a department of com merce and marine, with the recom mendation that the new department be placed under direction of Secre tary of Commerce Hoover. Local shipping men contend that the government fleet should be op erated with the chief purpose of in creasing foreign trade without re Kard to profit from operation. The plan proposed was to consolidate the iictivities of the shipping board and tr.e department of commerce. Letters were mailed to prominent shipping and trade executives ask ing eo-opcratlon in the movement. v STEAMER BEAVER ON WAYS lliver Vessel Is lo Be Overhauled and Effln Is Her Substitute. The river steamer Beaver of the Cl:itskanie Transportation' company was hauled out on the ways of ti.i Portland Transportation company Thursday for overhauling. During her lay-up the service of this com pany to Ciatskanle is being handled hy the Harkins line. The steamer Kffin is maintaining her run to Cold Creek. It was planned to place the steamer Fleetwood on the Clat,skanie run dur ing the overhauling of the Beaver. Essential parts of the Fleetwood's machinery, however, which are en route here from the east, have not yet arrived. WATER RATES AT COST URGED Congress to Ask Shipping Board to Favor Relief Supplies. . The next congress will ask the shipping board to transport relief supplies from the Pacific coast to the famine-swept areas of north China at actual cost, according to advices re ceived from Washington by J. J. Hanclsaker. chairman of the far east relief committee for Oregon. Such ac tion would result in a greatly reduced trans-Pacific freight rate for relief supplies. A reduction of the rate on bona fide relief supplies was expected from the narAfe west-bound conference at San Francisco last week, but the confer ence adjourned without such action, leaving the rate at $10 per ton. A report that the Seattle coherence had made a special rate of 18 a ton on wheat and flour for relief purpose? could not be confirmed by local operators. HIGHER UMBER KATES HOPE Trans-Pacific Shippers Expect Ad vance Following Oriental Revival. A stiffening of trans-Pacific lum ber rates is looked for by local steam ship operators following revival of the oriental lumber market. During the slump in lumber buying that fol lowed the Japanese financial panic of last summer, trans-Pacific lumber rates declined by gradual stages from $25 to $10. Though lumber has been offering rather freely for a week as cargo for oriental liners operating out of Port land, and a number of sales in the far east have been reported, no book ings have been made, and It is be lieved operators are holding off for an advance. RATE CHANGE EXPECTED EASTERN" SHIPPERS TO ORIEA'T ARE HANDICAPPED. Manufacturers West of Arbitrary Dividing Line Have Advantage in Transportation. Preferential import and export rates, now applicable from Pacific ports to Chicago, will soon be ex tended to the Atlantic seaboard as the result of pressure being brought to bear upon eastern transcontinental lines and the Interstate commerce commission by manufacturers in the territory lust east of the dividing line. according to private advices received by local transportation interests irom their eastern agents. Manufacturers Just east of the dead line." which extends from Chi cago southward through St. Louis, are at disadvantage In competing with manufacturers on this side of the arbitrary line. As the cost of shipping freight from non-co-operative territory across the continent is prohibitive, products of this region are forced to take the longer all water route from the Atlantic coast through the Panama, canal to the far east, while products from a plant per haps only a few miles farther west, but across the dividing line, can ship quickly by rail to the Pacific coast and thence to the orient by water, at the same total cost. Norwegian on Way Here. The Norwegian steamship Rio Grande, a vessel of 2221 net tons reg ister, left San Francisco at 7 o'clock Friday morning to load a full cargo of wheat here for Europe, ac cording to advices received by the Merchants' Exchange. Responsibility for the vessel's coming was denied yesterday by all local grain export ers but the Pacific Grain company, officials of which could not be reached. Monday.

NOTHING INSPIRING YET Present Period Said to Be Resting Spell With Consumers Get ting, Readjusted. . BV STI" ART P WKST (Copyright 1021 by The Oregonian.) NEW YORK, March 5. (Special.) The Wall street markets this week have sunk still deeper in the rut. For a fortnight now price change.-, taking the general as pect, have been small and the trading nas been constantly narrowing and dnnintsn ing In volume. These are the ordinary characteristics of a market resting upon a dead levl. waiting for some poweriui fresh impulse to stir it one way or tne other, no longer responsive to Influences which were once most potent. Here and there individual stocks hae been driven downward on the disclosure ol something unfavorable that had not been fully appreciated in their particulur situa tion. T-here have been on the contrary some moderate buying movements In tue shares of companies which are represent . i n... in iKa main the ins gooa earnings. i.ui. ... share list seem to have become hardenea to bad trade reports, to po statements, even lo dividend cuts.

Cotton at Low Level. Cotton has made another new low rec ord with the course of the week. Reports from the aulomokile and allied industries indicated continued dullness, while the American Locomotive company In Us an nual r. port published yesterday speaks de spairingly of the outlook for new orders in its line.' While, therefore, on the surface there Is nothing to enthuse about In business con ditions the situation is developing in a perfectly normal way and there is not the slightest reason to alter the view that the bottom was slrucK two mourns . A trade movement w nich went down hill as badly as that of last autumn does not suddenly rush to the other extreme. There must always interfile a resting spell, dur- inu- which consumors get used to and gain . confidence in the readjusted price Jevel and make up their minds that the price cutting has gone as far as it possibly can. The keynote of an Interval of this sort is caution which shows Itself in so-called hand-to-mouth buying and there should be nothing sut prising or depressing because business is going through such a period now. One thing Is certain, and that Is that when new buying once starts, it breaks rapidly. It Is like a stock market with a large short interest and a still larger investment demand only waiting the proof that the turn has come. Business men never buy on a falling market but when prices start upward at all this buy ing comes in with a rush. We have seen this as the aeU l"to the steel trade cisls of 1IMI3-04 anil lo the more general up heaval of HMli-08. That It will be the outcome of the present condition of dull ness and uncertainty can scarcely be doubted. Lighter Taxeia Hoped. Now that the programme of the new regime at Washington has been oueflned tho public knows exactly as much as it knew before. It is to be hoped that the heavy tax burdens will bo lightened, but the action of the stock market following the presidential message certainly sug gested no tremendous confidence along tills line. There was nothing in the mes sage that was calculated to throw any fresh light upon the situation or to fur nish any inspiration to the business and financial community one way or the other. The strength of the foreign exchange In face df the diplomatic crisis at Loudon has been.altcgether the most notable In cident of the week. It is in this quarter that uneasiness would be reflected more quickly and certainly than In any other. The January earning statements of the railroads are for the most part turning out quite as unfavorable as looked for. They are showing how with operating ex penses still Inflated by maximum wage scales and the traffic volume hard hit by the business slump, many roads have failed to come out even, let alone provid ing anything for Interest. Naturally such a situation could not last without prnouc- t ing rrcelverehips. The fact that the mar- I ket for railway shares has remained o i calm may be taken to indicate either llif f belief that the railway executives will eventually carry their point before the t labor board and by obtaining the abroga- tion of the national wage agreements. ; make possible a lowering of wages in the n.,rt:itin ImiUStTV. tllO SUIUe StJ ISi being done in the other lines. Doubtless the market action oi mv. mu in flects hope on both these points. At the same time the stoadiness of the railway list in the face of the worst possible show ing of current earnings foreshadows what is likely to happen with the steel and other Industrial stocks when their very poor statements for the first quarter are made public.
