eral cargo from New York and Phil
adelphia, and the steamer West
Lewark came in with general cargo

The chipping business of the past
week started with the entrance of

clearance of one. The motorship
Chile, with her valuable consignments
of glass and other freight from Eu
rope, was one of the arrivals. The

with the steamer West Kader from

Xepere cleared for Valparaiso and
way ports along the coast of Mexico
and South America and the Japanese
ateamers Reiyo Maru and Talkal Maru
cleared with lumber, wheat and gen

During the month of November 20
vessels under foreign registry and
four under American, entered at the
Portland customs house direct from
foreign ports, while 23 foreigners and
four Americans cleared from Fort
land direct for foreign ports.. This
listing excludes all vessels touching
at other American ports before com
ing here and all those In the Euro
pean trade which touch at other
American ports on their way abroad.
ForeJara Commerce Grawi,
The rapid and consistent growth of
Portland's foreign commerce In recent
years is shown by the official records
of the department of oommerce, cover
ing the period of convalescence since
the war. During the government
fiscal year ending June 30, 1918, ex
ports from the Oregon customs dis
trict had a total value of f 10,L'05,445.
For the following fiscal year, that of
1919. the total value of exports from
Oregon was 130,518,519. During the
next fiscal year the figure grew to
142,818.891, and In the fiscal year
ending June 30 last, a new export
record was set with a total value of
169,129,971.
That the exports for the present
year will come close to this figure in
spite of the rapid fall in value of all
commodities exported, Including a
drop of from $3 to less than $1 a
bushel in wheat, is a safe prediction,
for in the nine months ending Sep
tember 30 last, the official record
gives the Oregon district a total
valuation of $17,285,043. October'ex-
ports from Portland were valued at
more than $7,000,000, and those for
November more than $5,000,000.
Import Doom Indicated.
If Portland is at the beginning of
a great boom in import traffic, as
those in a position to know declare,
and has been Indicated in shipping
developments of the past few weeks,
all past records in this business will
be made insignificant.
From .1912 to 1916 Portland's Im
ports held consistently to a value
of about $3,000,000 a year. In 1915
this figure dropped to about $2,260,
000, and in 1917 imports received here
had a total value of only a little more
than $2,000,000. In 1918 the value of
imports climbed back to the $3,000,000
mark, and for the fiscal year of 1920
reached the unprecedented total of
$7,042,702, about the equal of the value
of one month's exports. A loss of
$2,000,000 was suffered by the import
traffic of the fiscal year 1921, bring
ing the value down to $5,014,199.
The prediction of a rapid growth in
Portland's imports from now on is
based principally upon the establish
ment in this city of large Japanese
commercial houses, which have here
tofore handled this business through
other ports. Chief among these are
Suzuki & Co. and Mitsui & Co. The
latter has already started routing a
share of Its transcontinental Import
traffic from Japan through this port
and has brought two inward cargoes
to Portland in recent months. Sev
eral more steamers of this company
are definitely booked to come here
within the next few months to dis-
' charge imports. ,
Oregon Proaorta Shipped.
Suzuki & Co. recently selected
Portland as the location for its Pa
cific coast headquarters snd during
the last three months has sent more
than a score of Its own steamers from
this port loaded to capacity with Ore
gon products. Routing of this firm's
imports through Portland, as has been
promised, cannot help but swell the
value of the inward freight received
here from abroad to a figure never
approached before.
Establishment of a direct trans
Pacific steamship service out of Port
land under the Japanese flag also Is
expected to play a large part In the
development of the Import traffic of
this port. The steamer Saikal Maru
of the Yamashlta Kisen Kalsha now
Is loading here after discharging
more than 2000 tons of oriental
freight, the largest cargo brought
here from the erlent in several
months. Three American steamers
which arrived here Friday night from
the orient brought Inward cargoes
aggregating less than that brought
by the one Japanese vessel.

STEAMERS TO BE RAISED
Only Five Head of Cattle Aboard
La Center Saved.
RIDGEFIELD, Wash., Dec. 3. (Spe
cial.) According to Information re
ceived here late Friday from J. W.
Davis and George W. Burrow, local
cattle raisers, only five or six head
of cattle were saved on the steamer
La Center, sunk by a gale that hit this
part of the. country Thursday after
noon. The storm nit tne j-.a center
near Deer island, Columbia river, and
soon capsized the boat with every
thing on board. A passing vessel
rescued the crew. The cattle belonged
to J. W. Davis and were loaded
aboard the steamer at Kelso and were
bound for tne stockyards at North
Portland.
Efforts are being made to raise the
boat, which plies between La Center,
ltidgefield and Portland on a trt
weekly schedule. The towboat
Metlako, of Portland, was the other
victim of Thursday's gale- when It
sunk near the mouth of Lake fiver
Thursday afternoon. The crew escaped
with safety. The towboat had a large
barge of cordwood and both became
unmanageable. The cordwood barge
rammed the towboat, damaging part
of the ship's structure, which later
sank. The mouth of Lake river is
about three miles northwest of Ridge
field. Efforts .to raise the Metlako are
in progress, according to word brought
here by fishermen.
