THE ! SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, MARCH 5, 1922 21 1 FLOUR SHIPPED TO ORIENT Northwest Exports This Sea son 51, 530,784 Bushels. ASIA BUYS 40 PER CENT .Movement of Cereals to Europe Only Little Less Than Corre sponding Year Previous. Forty per cent ' of the" wheat and flour chipped from the Columbia river and Pug-t sound this Mason has gone to the orient and only 43 per cent to Europe, according to the monthly re port of the Merchants Exchange cov ering cereal shipments by water from the northwest. This report shows a grand total of wheat and riour shipments from Puget sound and the Columbia river from July 1 to March 1 amounting to 51, 630,784 bushels. This alone is re markable, for the total shipped to date is already larger than the en tirety of the crop in many of the. past years. Still more remarkable, how ever,, is the fact that the orient, ex clusive of Ind'a, has taken 21,208,770 bushels of this total. The movement to Europe so far this season has comprised 22,167,594 bush bis of wheat and fiour. Enropean Shipments Lens. Though t'he movement of cereals from the northwest to Europe this season has been only a little less than . that of the corresponding period last season, the shipments to Europe con stitute a much smaller percentage this year than last of the whole vol ume of wheat and flour shipped out. The present season's total of 22, 167,594 bushels of wheat and flour Shipped to Europe represents only 43 par cent of the grain shipped from the northwest, while last year's ship ments t Europe during the first eight months of the cereal year, amounting to 25,341,426 bushels, represented 78 per cent of the total movement. Orient Buys 12,119,068 Bushels. Another comparison that shows the Jump in the exportation of wheat and flour from the northwest to the orient is that 12,119,068 bushels of wheat in the form of unmilled grain has been shipped to the orient this season as against none at all last season. In the matter of flour, the orient has received from Puget sound and the Columbia river this season 2,019,867 barrels of flour, compared to the relatively Insignificant amount of 261,152 barrels for the corresponding period of the 1920-21 crop year. The total movement of flour to all destinations during the month of Feb ruary showed an increase over the corresponding month of last year from both the Columbia river and Puget sound. The sound also showed a gain in the month's wheat ship ments while the Columbia river dis trict suffered a loss. The shipments of wheat from the river for the month, however, totaled 1,080,212 bushels as against a total of 517,299 bushels of wheat from Puget sound. Rival Ports Run Close Race. For wheat and flour shipments con sidered, together in terms, of bushels, Puget sound and the Columbia river ran a close race in February, with the river slightly in the lead. Feb ruary shipments from the Columbia river are given as 1,890,498 bushels. against 1,767,267 bushels from Puget sound. The shipments of wheat and flour to each destination from both Puget sound and the Columbia river for the season to date, meaning from July 1 to March 1, are shown by the Mer chants Exchange tables as follows: Wheat (Bushels). - From Columbia river to 1921-22.

Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Company to Begin Construc tion of Heavy Trunk. - J Rapid expansion of the submarine plant of the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph company has necessitated the drafting of plans for the con struction of a special "cable ship," which upon completion will have as its first duty the laying across the Willamette river of the largest sub marine cable ever brought to the northwest, and after the completion of that task will serve as the per manent repair shop for all subma rine cable work of the state. . j Under the $3,500,000 reconstruction programme of the telephone company it was found necessary to install a new trunk cable between the Broad way office and the East office. This CABLE SHIP TO BE CONSTRUCTED HERE FOR LAYING HUGE POP50 oc VIEW OF SASf FRANCISCO cable will carry some of the most important interoffice trunks in the local exchange system, and since it will be necessary, to cross the river a new submarine section must be laid. The ship, which Will be more of the nature of a barge, will cost approxi mately $8000, while the cable to be placed on the river bed will cost in the neighborhood of J17.000. The barge will be equipped with all modern devices, including a der rick, engine, cable reel and equip ment used for laying, testing and splicing cable. Provision also will be made for comfortable quarters for the workmen and for the serv ing of hot food. The huge cable, which will be laid as soon as the barge is- completed, will contain 900 wires, will weigh approximately 15 pounds to the foot and will be three and one-half inches in diameter. At present there are 28 submarine cables crossing the Wil lamette river in Portland. These vary in size from 40 to 400 pairs. Outside of Portland there are a number of similar submarine cables, including one across the Columbia at Hood River, two between Portland, and Vancouver, three between Goble and Kalama and others at Salem, Flor ence and In the vicinity of Astoria. Altogether there is a total of 12 miles of this type of cable In "the state and the value is more than $100,000. - After laying the giant SOO-wIre cable the barge will be kept ready at all times for repair work on underwater cables. Although trenches are usually dug and other protective measures taken, floating debris and ship anchors sometimes play havoc with these arteries of communica tion, but with this craft in reserve interruption from Inevitable breaks will be cut to a minimum. The barge will be designed after one of the same type now used by the telephone company in taking care of marine cable work on San Fran cisco bay. The contract for construc tion will be let to one of the local builders in the near future, it was announced. Pacific Coast Shipping Notes. ASTORIA, Or., March 4. (Special.)

A sequel to the wreck of the schooner Columbia River on Sunday island In t" e South Pacific last Sep tember, and a further manifestation of the friendship between certain Englishmen and Americans resulting from the Incident, arrived in the local offices of Balfour, Guthrie & Co. few days ago in the shape of a letter from Commodore Hotham, commander of the British cruiser Chatham, which rescued the shipwrecked crew of the Columbia River. Balfour, Guthrie & Co. were owners of the schooner, and transmitted a warm letter of thanks and apprecia tion to Commodore Hotham for his services in the rescue of the cast aways. The reply of the British naval officer to this missive, trans mitted through the American consul at Auckland, N. Z.. is as follows: "I have today received your kind letter of November 17. 1921. In re- Ply, nay I assure you that it is always a privilege and a pleasure to be able to assist mariners in distress? But in this particular case we derived more satisfaction than usual, as we were enabled to wipe. off some of the debt we owned to the United tSates for the hospitality received in American ports on our way out from England.
