northwest will end June 30, and, ac
cording to a conservative estimate,
at least 51.000,006 bushels -of wheat
and flour will have been shipped out
from the Columbia, river by that date.
The departure of the Dutch steam
er Alkmaar for Europe yesterday with
a cargo of 380,000 bushels of wheat
for Europe brought the total ship
ments of wheat and flour from the
river for the season to date to 29,
402,376 bushels. Since June 1, 1,433,
798 bushels of wheat have been sent
out of the Columbia river to off-
chore points alone, and with th
resumption of coastwise steamship
service as a result of the breaking of
the marine strike, it is estimated that
a good 1,500,000 bushels more of
wheat and flour will move from the
river before the end of the cereal
year.
All Records Broken.
The shipment of 31,000,000 bushels
of wheat and flour from the Columbia

NEW YORK. Sixteen exploration
expeditions are now in progress or in
contemplation after four years of in
activity in this line of scientific re
search, due to the great war. Most of
these enterprises have been under
taken or projected since the armistice
and they recall the fact that Mother
Earth still has important biological,
zoological, geological, ethnological
and meteorological problems which
are still unsolved.
One of the most important of these
enterprises is the British Antarctic
expedition, headed by Commander
John Lachlan Cope. P. R. G. S., for
merly of the British navy. It is
financed for 1750.000, includes five,
ships, 123 men, several airplanes and
extensive wireless -apparatus. The
undertaking is to require five years
and Its objects are the circumnaviga
tion of the Antarctic sea, a dash to
the South Pole, the locating of new
whaling grounds, and the discovery
of supposedly rich gold, silver, coal
and ruby fields.
CaDtain Roald Amundsen, who dis
covered the South Pole in 1911. left
tioroe, Alaska, last August in an at
tempt to reacb-the North Pole. His
ship, the1 Maud, had already spent 19
months in the Arctic, north of Asia
and Europe, and had successfully
mad the northeast passage. He ex
pected the Maud to be locked In the
ice pack and to drill lowara tne poio
when the Arctic winter ended.
Siberia and Ureenlantl Sen.
Tn negotiating his way to Nome he
was frequently compelled to blast a
path through the ice. The explorer,
on account of high wages and scarcity
of men, was handicapped by lack of
help, his only companions being three
sailors and an Eskimo cook.
The other interesting expeditions
projected -or now under way are as
follows:

party of American scientists, neaaea
by Dr. Henry H. Ruaby of Columbia
university. The party expected to
traverse more than 1000 square miles
of almost virgin land in the upper
reaches of the river basin. Dr. Rusby
was to be accompanied by Dr. Carl
H. Eigenmann of the University of
Indiana, who were to study fish and

,r. ,BJ STUART P. WEST.
(Copy-right 1921, by The oregonian.)
NEW YORK. J.in. 11 u
weeks developments in the markets huve
been encouraging, others depressing, with
the net result that financial sentiment is
yery much mixed over the outlook. On
the favorable side are the further marked
Improvement in federal reserve bank
ratios, a decline In money rates and rat..
on commercial paper, further progress to
ward normal prices for wheat ami some
other farm products and better reports re
garding railway traffic and the attitude
of railway labor toward wage decreases.
On the unfavorable side are fresh price
cutting in various commercial lines, not
ably automobiles, farm implements, sugar
and steel, accounts of the steel trade show
ing production down to the lowest in a
decade, with no indications of an early
turn for the better, the unwillingness ot
the Mexican government to consider re
vising Its onerous oil tax measures until
Wsshington has consented to formal rec
ognition, the reduction and passing of more
dividends, carrying the fear of slill njore
to come, and finally the acute unsettle
ment in foreign exchange In the course of
which the entire recovery since last De
cember has been undone.
Easy Money Not Enough.
The stock market has plainly shown
mat ine untavorahle ractors. for the tlm
being, were in the ascendant. The relax
ation in money rates has, to be sure, re
moved one of the matters which were caus
ing much concern a week ago. But easy
money can never by itself put storks up.
where earnings are poor and dividends
doubtful. Parts of the list seem to have
got down low enough to measure the worst
in their trade aituatlon, while others have
not.
This Is the simple explanation of the
week's declining stock market. Sentiment
In speculative circles has become demoral
lzed by the spectacle of continuously fall
ing prices in precisely the same way as it
was intoxicated by the predictions of un
limited advance when the market was at
the top of Its upward swing in October,
1910. Just aa the price movement then
over-estimated the extent of trails infla
tlon and swollen profits and made no al
lowance for the readjustment demanded
by the return to peace, so the reverse
movement now is exaggerating the extent
of trade depression and giving no thought
tor the turn which is bound to come.
Another Cut Kiperted.
The rise In the federal reserve rstio to
58,3 the highest percentage since the
spring of 1918 foreshadows another cut
before long In official discount rates. Last
time the reduction was from 7 to O'j per
cent; this time it will be a drop to 6 per
cent, and both in the call loan department
and in the market for commercial paper,
preparations for this lower' level already
have begun.
That the prospect of lastingly easier
money rates has not been the stimulus
that It ordinarily would be to the Invest
ment market Is to be explained, firat.on
the gronnd of the excessive output wlth'n
the last month or so of new securities and,
second, on the ground of the uncertainty
of the new reenue legislation. While most
of the new syndicate offerings have gone
well there has been too great eagerness
to gather the cream off the investment
demand.
As a result the market has become con
gested In the same manner as It was last
February and has not been able to resist
as well as it otherwise would the competi
tion of the new tax-exempt issues of the
federal -government and of New York
state. The success of the- latter issues
has been promoted by the unsettled finan
cial outlook, which has made Investors
feel more inclined toward securities like
the 54 per cent treasury notes, which are
free from normal taxes, and the New Yo.-k
state 5s, which are free from all taxation.
Income Tax Sticks.
But In the market generally, both for
bonds and stocks, one thing which has
told against the buying power which has
kept down the support wnicn oramann
would have been forthcoming at such very
low pricea is that rich men do not know
where they stand In their obligations to
ward the government. They were assure!
,h,t the new regime at Washington would
cut down expenditures and reduce taxation
on large incomes. Now they have begun
. hr whether this can be done, in view
of the great shrinkage in both corporate
and private profits that has occurred and
will- he a continuing feature certainly for
another six months.
The proDiem win do Kmiiiinru .
, treasury programme for distributing
the redemption of the $7.500,000.000 (loat-
Ing debt over a five-year period from 1023
to 1028 proves a success and the results
of Iho first offerings of the new three-year
notes Intended to accomplish this purpose
are certainly encouraging. Still, even
eliminating the consideration of any part
of this debt retirement having to be met
through taxes, It is going to be a hard Job.
with the slump In revenue, to make both
ends meet and relief from the present tin
burdens becomes every day more and more
unlikely.
Recovery I'nder Way.
In tho light of last statistics on Brltlih
and French trade and considering these
along with the continued heavy Imports
into this country of gold, there is no excuse
for trying to read into the recent break in
the exchanges any inference that the con
ditions which worked for recovery" a.l
through the winter and spring have been
changrd.
Purchase of dollar credits and tne set
ting up In this, country of a largo cash
balance in favor of the recipients of tne
German reparations money coining upon
an Inflated speculative situation furnishes
a complete explanation. There ui nothing
seriously disturbing about the decline be
cause it could be instantly stopped If it
threatened unfavorable consequences, by
the reparations commission ceasing its
buying of dollars and agreeing to accept ,
other currency as cover tor me inree
months' bills which they Bold against tne
German government.
As for the railway situation the feeling
Is rather more confident at the close or
the week that the men will agree to the
12 per cent wage cut and that there will
be no real threat ot a strike.

' Duly Is Xot Expected.
Differing greatly from many commodi
ties, "coffee Immediately began to decline
when the great slump began. As with many
other goods, the retailers did not lollow
promptly with their declines, but now they
are all on the market banis. It Is believed.
Coffees havo been of late selling at re
tail at about the average pre-war prices.
During pre-war times thc-y have been much
higher than they havo been lately anu
occasionally a little lower.
A month or two ago Brazil floated a
Iran In Europe and a little later a $23,
uihi.ihhi loan In the United Slates. Part
ot this latter loan has been used In a
new valorisation scheme by the state of
Sao Paulo, hacked by the entire L'nlled
States of Brazil. At tho snme time Eu
rope began to purchase coffees heavily In
Central America and late advices show
an advance in all Central American grades
of from 1 cent to 1 'i cents per pound.
This advance has been most pronounced
in the lowest grades and the ordinary and
medium grades and is now being re
flected In the price or the roa.tcrs
throughput the Pacific coast.
Brazil, which now has the largest slock
of cofleo unsold on hsnd. is practically
dictating prices and lis prices have al
ready advanced fully 1 cent per pound
Prices thus far have not advanced enough
to make any appreciable difference to
the consumers, and It is hardly anticipated
any advance will show much, if any. dif
ference In the retail prlrc, but Urazll an
ticipates In the present crop year, now
Just fairly started. 25 per cent or greater
shrinkage and with affairs In more nor
mal shape In central Kurope. thero la a
possibility of still further advances, al
though this is not generally looked for.
Some, dealers have agitated the ques
tion of a possible duty on coffee In the
new tariff now before the house commit
tee. Thus far nobody knows anything of
what is proposed In this tariff and aa II
has been more than 40 years since a duty
was put on coffee and none was put on
even during tna great emergency oi ine
war, the general consensus of opinion
seems to bo that no duty will be put ot
coffee.
