FULL CARGO IS CARRIED
TV. S. Miller Due to Arrive in Port
land May 2 0 to Discharge 40,
000 Barrels of Gasoline.
Moving with all the stealth and se
crecy of a blockade runner in war
time, the Standard Oil company's tank
. steamer Col. E. L. Drake slipped into
the Columbia river yesterday morning
and docked at the Standard Oil plant
at 7 o'clock last night with a lull
cargo of fuel oil. Because of the seri
ousness of the tie-up at San Fran
cisco resulting from the marine work
ers' strike and the desire of the com
pany to avoid disorder at the port of
destination, the Col. E. L. Drake was
sent out of San Francisco under sealed
orders, and her destination was known
only to her operators and the few
persons taken into the confidence of
the Standard Oil company.
Arrival First In Week.
This tanker is the first coastwise
vessel to come here in more than a
week. Practically all of the vessels
ope rating in the Pacific coastwise
traffic have been tied up at their
home ports as fast as they finished
their first round voyages after May 1
and have been deserted by their men
and officers. The majority of the
fleet of tankers, steamers and steam
schooners are at San Francisco.
Announcement was made by the
local office of the Standard Oil com
pany yesterday that the new tanker
w. S. Miller, now out on her second
voyage from Baton Rouge to the Pa
cific coast with gasoline, will come
to Portland about .May 20 to discharge
40.000 barrels of gasoline. This will
be the first direct shipment of oil
from the Gulf coast to Portland for
more than 18 mouths. The W. S.
Miller has aboard some 80,000 bar
rels of gasoline and will leave half
her cargo at Point Wells before com
ing to Portland to discharge the re
mainder.
Anxiety Sot KxprrHiseU..
o concern over the delay to ves.
sels by the marine strike is professed
by officers of the Standard Oil com
pany, and it i9 declared that the com
pany will be able to operate enough
tankers in the coastwise trade, in
spite of the strike, to prevent a local
shortage of either fuel oil or gaso
line. According to local officers of
ti 3 company, the Col. E. L.. Drake is
manned by a regular crew, as arc the
other vessels of the Standard Oil fleet
An entirely different version of the
effect of the strike upon the oil tanker
fleets has been reported to the local
headquarters of the striking marine
unions. These reports state that the
tankers are being manned entirely by
non-union men and that the refiner'
ies and plants of all the oil companies
throughout California are being
combed for men with a knowledge of
engines to become marine engineers,
and for ex-navy men to act as sailors
during the emergency.

STEAMER SWIKTSCOCT.
One of the most widely-discussed developments on the Portland water1 front during the past week was 'he
charter of the 12.000-ton tank steamer Swlftscout to take a full cargo of about 10.000 tons of wheat to Eu
rope for the Northern Grain & Warehouse company. The Swlftscout is one of the seven big tankers built by
the Northwest Bridge & Iron company of this city for the Swiftsure Oil Transport company of New York. Vwo
of these tankers the Swiftscout and Swifteagle were tied up here after they were ecompleted because tiere
was not enough activity in the foreign oil trade to justify their operation.
The interest of he water front is centered upon the loading of the tanker they were completed because there

One of the luckiest accidents that
ever befell a steamship company,
according to A. C. Ca Man. Portland
manager for the "Williams Steamship

aboard the steamers WiHhilo and
Willpolo before the present .strike

be signed at Pan Francisco for the
round voyage to the Atlantic coast
and back to San Francisco.
When steamers of other lins were
bein:? delayed or tied up because of
thp marine workers' strike, the four
steamers, in the service of the Will

trouble. As it happened, the two
vessels on t he Pacific coast had
crews signed to take them back to
the Atlantic, and those on the Atlan

BT STUART P. WEST.
(Copyright by The Orenonian.)
NW TOKK. May 14. (Special.) The
broad view of Germany's acceptance of th6
reparation termi is that It prepares the
way for her re-entrance into the commer
cial league of nations and as such Is an
accomplishment of great significance to
the trade future of the world. The growth
of German exports has already been not
able, but it has been due entirely to th
extremely low value of the mark in terms
of other currencies.
Before 'Germany could really launch out
into a campaign for world commerce an
develop her buying power for the bene
fit of other nations, she had to know what
she had to pay under the reparation!
claims. . Xow that this has been settled,
her main development will begin. The
per cent export tax will not be a serious
handicap because it will be tacked
to export prices and will still be offset,
fn competition with other countries, by the
low value of the mark.
Naturally, much will depend upon
ceptabllity of the new German reparation
bonds. If these go well it will hasten Ger
many's economic restoration; If they prove
hard to sell it will retard her commercial
expansion. But inasmuch as it will be
thought common interest to make a sue
cess of the reparation loans, they will be
sura of the united support ot the banking
communities and can count upon powerful
influence being brought to bear upon in
vestment capital of the nation to absorb
them.
German Outlook Brighter.
The very sharp advance in German
exchange, and the simultaneous upward
move in German government securities are
sufficient indication to banking cir
cles that the German outlook is good
Likewise they are a convincing answer to
the question of Germany's ability to pay.
The new high levels reported during the
week in other European exchange are
partly a response to the reparations set
tlement which holds forth the prospect o
France. Belgium and other continental al
lies beginning payment before long on their
war debta
But more largely the upward move
ment in sterling, francs and lire is the
result of extraordinary reversal in their
foreign trade relations, a subject which
had already come in for a creat deal of
attention, but which was more sharply
defined by the publication of our own ex
port and import statistics for the month of
April. It was shown In these April fig
ures that the balance of our sales over
purchases had shrunk to the low level of
SS.yooo.OOO and that this was more th
offset by the Import of WJ. 000. 000 tn gold
This visible debit against the United States
would be considerably augmented by reck
oning in the invisible Items, for with tha
most liberal estimate of what Europe
owes us for interest on loans, both public
and private, this is nowhere near equal to
her credit in the carrying trade plus the
sxpendtture of American - tourists abroad
Curope Already Liquidating.
Thus it appears that Europe has al
ready begun to liquidate the obligations in
curred during the war. When we remember
that it was less than a year ago that
any people, some of them in high places.
were talking about the possibility of Eu
rope going bankrupt and laying down on
Us American indebtedness, this should be
regarded as a most welcome development.
But unfortunately it is not an unmixed
good. England. France and Italy h
bettered their position as debtors at the
expense or the trade of their principal
creditor. The April figures show the tre
mendous slump which export business from
this country has had since last summer,
d they also make clear the great part
which this slump has played in the indus
trial reaction at home.
It is increasingly plain, moreover, that
European countries, when cut off from
further extension of American credit, set
about becoming less dependent upon Amer-
can products by trading more with one
another. This condition promises .to con
tinue and to form a hindram-e to trade
recovery here, unless we find means to
make it easier for Europe to buy from us
on long-term loans. Recognition of thu
is seen In the new ruling by the federal re.
serve board this week making exchange
bills up to six months available for redis
count. This is an invitation for the banks
which were shut down upon so severely in
heir foreign trade relations a year ago,
to go ahead again.
Motor Industry Suffers.
Developments in the domestic trade sit
uation continue of varying character.
There is no use denying that the motor
industry so far this month has been
great disappointment. The promising re
covery of March and April has been iol
lowed by a reaction severe enough to in
fluence automobile and tiremakers to cut
prices sharply In an effort to stimulate
business. Inasmuch as the better demand
from the- automobile centers had been th
bright spot in an otherwise uncertain sit
uation for the steel companies, the steel
outlook has been made to appear less fav
orable. The market lias felt it necessary
tn discount the passing dividends by a
least two of the big independent con
cerns. and has had to consider the posst
bility of a further downward revision ot
steel prices beiore tne industry win nave
struck bottom.
Agricultural Implement makers are re
oorted to slash the-ir prices, and this, too,
has been a disturbing influence. But these
are instances which merely bear out the
content on made all along that the turn
ing movement in business is not being
made In any general way but by section,
Against the unfavorable reports from the
motor, steel and harvester industries are
to be set. as quite as important. Uie ad
vance during the last few days in copper
nrfces and the very substantial gain in
railway traffic as shown in the statistics
of carloadtngs and idle cars, irom tne sec
ond week of Apjril on.
Stock Market Irregular.
The stock market has revealed a de
gree of Irregularity commensurate with
slmtlar conditions in outside trade. De
clines in steel and motor .shares have gone
on simultaneously with advances in oils
and copper, and this unevenness seems
likely to continue until trade readjustment
is completed in those quarters where it
still has not yet run its course.
The upward movement of bonds has
paused for two reasons. First, there is the
increasing competition from a fresh out
put of new capital issues. Second, there is
the probability that further reduction to
interest rates will be slow because the dn
mand from farmers and business men who
were unable until recently to get ade
quate accommodations, will take up quite
a part of the credit slack released by the
slowing down of industry generally.

VLADIVOSTOK SHY OF COIN
Residents Have Clothes and Plenty
to Eat, but Xtt Money.
TOKIO. Resldenls of Vladivostok
have plenty to eat and plenty of
clothes' but no money, according" to
a correspondent of the Kokusal News
agency who has Just returned from
that city.
"Good beef can be purchased for 20
cents a pound," he says and continues:
"A good suit of clothes costs about
one-third what they do In America
and other things In proportion. The
only thing the people lack is money
to spend. Coin has virtually disap
peared from circulation and nobody
will accept the paper notes. Wages,
even of government employes, are
paid in food, clothes and tickets for
use with the public utilities.
"The plenitude of these necessi
ties is explained by the fact that huge
stores have been imported Into Vladi
vostok for shipment into the interior
and are being held there indefinitely.
These stores are being drawn upon.
"A few miles out of Vladivostok to
the north conditions are very dif
ferent There the population has
neither money nor supplies, and hun
ger and cold have taken liberal tolls
of the Russians. The Chita authori
ties have been sending clamorous de
mands that Vladivostok share her
supplies with the rest of Siberia, a
call to which the local authorities
have shown no disposition to respond,
even if the Japanese would let them.
"These latter have been taking the
stand that until it is certain that
Japan will not have to fight Chita
they will not permit the exportation
of anything that may later be used
against the Japanese forces.
"The lack of acceptable money in
Vladivostok Is resulting in business
stagnation. Anyone with good money
can buy anything he wants and cheap
ly, but in its absence nothing can be
sold. Business houses are fast clos
ing their doors and factories are shut
ting down."

NEW YORK'. May 14. The two-hour
session of the stock market today was
enlivened by further pressure from the
shorts, that faction dominating the d&al
Ings in the absence of more tentative
support.
Selling once more converged around
oils, motors, steels and shippings with a
liberal sprinkling of the prominent irperial
ties. The latter embraced Famous Play
ers, Sears-Roebuck and some of the more
obscure issues, whose reaction was ac
companied by adverse dividend rumors.
Sumatra Tobacco recovered a small part
of its recent continuous reversal and a
few rails resisted pressure, but in the
main, transportations gave way with the
general list In which extreme losses ex
tended from one lo nearly live points.
