BONDS FOR PEACE
Oil DOCKS FAVORED
Ship Employers Offer Plan
to End Disturbances.
STRIKERS ASKED TO JOIN
Financial Security Against Any
Attacks, or Word of Leaders
of Union, Is Proposed.
Renewal of attacks on nonunion
water front workers, credited in
most cases- to union longshoremen
on strike aim in turn by them
charged to outsiders seeking to
create trouble, have prompted the
Waterfront Employers union to
make a proposal that the union file
a bond that its members , will pre
serve the peace, or, if that iB unsat
isfactory, for the officers the
union to pledge their word that the
assaults cease.
That the officers of the labor or
ganization are capable of insisting
on such peace is declared by the
employers to have been proved
when attacks were stopped during
deliberations of the Oregon state
board of corfciliation.
Employer! Inane Statement.
Relative to the situation as it has
to do with the assignment of extra
police on the water front, the em
ployers yesterday issued the fol
lowing statement:
The Waterfront Employers union
makes the positive assertion that no re
sponsibility can be attached ty it tor the
matntainance of an extra force of po
licemen that the authorities believe is
neressary to preserve order in .this city
during the strike on the waterfront.
Charges that the employers are to blame
for this expense to the taxpayers are not
based on facts. No acts on the part of
the employers or the workers at present
engaged in loading and unloading ships
in the Portland harbor have brought
about conditions that have .made such
measures to preserve the peace neces
' sary.
Violence is not an effective are amen t
in such a controversy as now exists be
tween the waterfront employers and the
longshoremen's union, and the employers
will use every effort to prevent their
employees from making any move that
might lead to a combat with the strikers.
Employers Offer Bond.
To demonstrate our desire that this ex
pense may be eliminated, if the author
ities wish it; we will-furnish such a bond
as may be requested as a-guaranty that
there will be no disorder or lawless acts
committed by the employers, their agents
or employes, if the leaders of the long
shoremen's association will do the same.
Or, if the bond conditions cannot be
met by the longshoremen, positive as
surance by both sides that there will be
no further violence might be acceptable
to the city1 officials. The mere promise
that the longshoremen's officers would
endeavor to prevent criminal acts would
not suffice. It should be an absolute
pledge that there would be no more vio
lence. It lies within the power of these
officers to do thris.
Violence Halted by Leaders. .
To say that they have no control over
their members is not stating a fact.
When the shipping board representatives
came to Portland and hearings were In
progress before the Ptate hoard of con
ciliation, violence was at once halted and
every effort made to create a favorable
impression by the longshoremen. ' Had
these acts been committed by I. W. W.
or other outsie persons to discredit the
labor union, as is claimed by the long
shoremen's leaders, no better time to ac
complish this aim could have been se
lected by the alleged conspirators.
If this plan Is agreed to, it is reason
able to assume that there would be no
further need of extra policemen and
while we cannot speak for the mayor
and chief of police, we believe they
might be justified in recalling their men.
Truck ins of Flour Discussed.
Representatives of flour mills at
Portland met with members of the
conciliation board yesterday to dis-j
cuss trucking of flour by longshore
men, work which Balfour, Guthrie &
Co. denied union longs"hore,men
Thursday on the dock of the Crown
mill, when the shipping board
steamer Eastern Sailor was along
side for flour consignments destined
for the far east. As a result of the
meeting the state board is to obtain
data as to flour trucking on Puget
sound.
The difference over flour trucking
caused the Eastern Sailor to lose
half a' day, but the union men went
to work in thje afternoon, the mill
delivering flour at ship's tackle with
it3 own force. The men acted under
protest, being assured that the neu
tral bureau committee, of two long
shoremen and two shipping board
representatives, would take the sub
ject up with the state board.
Employers Not Interested.
Flour mill operators assert that
all Puget sound mills deliver flour
at ship's tackle, no longshoremen
being employed, at least not as
longeshoremen, and that the same
system will be continued in vogue
here. Their contracts, it is declared,
provide for delivery within reach
of the ship's gear and it to be in
sisted on by. them regardless of
whether the vessel loading is
owned by the shipping board or pri
vate interests. The squabble as yet
is one in which the Waterfront Em
ployers' union has no official con
cern, since it arose with respect to
shipping board loading, but there
appears no question but that the
employers are bent In carrying out
the same programme initiated when
the new schedule was issued April
22 and which they are determined
shall be established as a port cus
tom with the move por a positive
parity in costs as they relate to
schedules at competitive ports.
APPOINTMENT IS APPROVED
Lieutenant Jones Is Expected to
Promote Harmony in Port.
THE OREGOXIAN BUREAU,
Washington, D. C., June 10.-Ap-preval
was given by the shipping
board today to the permanent ap
pointment of Lieutenant Harold C.
Jones, of the sea service bureau,
United States emergency fleet cor
poration, to act on the neutral bu
reau committee formed to handle
labor matters in connetion with
stevedoring at Portland.
This committee now consists of
two representatives of the Interna
tional Longshoremen's association
and two members representing the
interests of the United States ship
ping board.
In recommending the appointment,
the Oregon state board of concilia
tion expressed the view that Mr.
Jones would use everv endeavor to
carry out the findings of the board
and will do all in his power toward
promoting harmony and the restora
tion of the port's industry along ef
ficient lines.
Commissioners T. V. O'Connor and
George E. Chamberlain, of the ship
ping board, in approving the selec
tion of Mr. Jones, wired the board's
' representative at Portland today
that they hoped "this appointment
satisfactorily ended the matter."
In a brief statement with the an
nouncement of the appointment the
shipping board said:
"The troubles in Portland were
t due to differences that arose be-
I tween operators of American vesselsJ
;ana tne International Longshore
, men's association, and the contro-
j versy which resulted was the sub
ject of arbitration.
I "The shipping board from the
start maintained a neutral attitude
toward the Waterfront Employers
union and 'the International Long
shoremen's union, the two parties
involved.
'"The shipping board took the po
sition that in the employment of
labor to stevedore its vessels the
board would not be required to em
ploy through, or according to the
dictates of, either the longshore
men's union or -the Waterfront Em
ployers union.
"The state board of conciliation,
after hearing both sides and taking
testimony, decided that a neutral
bureau, giving equal representation
to each side, should be established
for the- purpose of allotting em
ployment. Both of the. contending
organizations have accepted this set
tlement." - " . . !
VINITA TRANSFER 1ELAYED
t
Shipping Board Steamer Iiikely
to Take on Supplies Tomorrow, v
Plans for transferring the ship
ping board steamer Vinitavfrom the
Columbia-Pacific Shipping company
to the Swayne & Hoyt Australian
service .failed'to be carried chit yes
terday and delays met with will
probably prevent the assignment be
ing made until noon tomorrow. The
ship will then proceed from terminal
No. 3 to the dock of the Shell Oil
company for bunker supplies and is
to shift to the mill of the St. Johns
Lumber company to take on 250,000
feet of lumber that was originally

ing at San Francisco on her way to
Australia and New Zealand. '

tinue on the ship. He is among the
best-known navigators on. the Pa
cific and previous to his deep-water
service during the war was in the
United States steam vessel inspec
tion service, being inspector of hulls
at Los Angeles.
SHIP LOADED IX QUICK TI3IE
Steam Schooner Established New
Mark at St. Helens.
Loading .1,100,000 feet of lumber
aboard the steam schooner Ernest
H. Meyer in two days is a new mark
established when the last went over
the side last night at St. Helens,
where the vessel got under way at
9 o'clock for San. Francisco. Inci
dentally, as she steamed from San
Francisco at 8 o'clock Monday night,
reaching St. Helens late Thursday
night, the "turn around" is pointed
to as exceptionally fast. She started
loading Friday morning.-
Captain Danskanen, skipper of
the Meyer, which was built by Wil
son Bros, at Astoria, in 1917, and is
controlled by Portlanders, though
in the McCormick service, .gives
credit to crew and longshoremen for
having hung up a new record, and
while there are other ships under
the flag that have loaded speedily,
the Meyer's company feel confident
their" total will be safe for a time.
However, with the steamer Willam
ette in port and the Multnomah
bound back, there is expected to be
some close checking on the two
days' work and with equal gear for
hustling the material aboard the
1922 season may witness the show
ing being shaded.
Cargo handled by the McCormick
vessels there is merchantable stuff,
so such dimension material that
might be compared with Jap squares
and the like is not handled in large
lots, .-
Nonunion Workers Attacked.
R. W. Calkins and H. H. Johnson,
nonunion dock workers of 274 East
Giisan street, were attacked by two
men believed to be striking long
shoremen, as they were aboard a
Montavilla street car on the way
to work yesterday morning. Neither
man was badly hurt and the at
tackers were put to flight by spe
cial police. One of the assailants
was said to have been identified as
being G. Thompson, for whom a.
warrant,, charging, assault, was
sworn out.

SALVAGE STEPS PEND
On Action Taken on Tenders De
pends Whether or Not Hull
Is to Be Abandoned.

aboard tne sunken Brmsn steamer
Welsh Prince,- which lies below AI
toona, 12 miles above Astoria, where
she sank two weeks ago : tonight
after a collision with the American
steamer lowan, will b opened at 10
o'clock Thursday morning at the
office o Henry Hewitt & Co.,
Lloyd's agent. On the action with
qespect to tenders for the removal
of the cargo depends steps to be
taken toward the salvage' or aban
donment of the hull.
The conclusion to call for bids
was rea'ched yesterday at a confer
ence between Captaia W. H. Logan
of Victoria, B. C, representing the
London Salvage association; Captain
M. M. Crockett of New York, here
in behalf of the New York Board
of Marine Underwriters; Captain
William C- McNaught of Portland,
surveyor for the San Francisco
Board of Marine Underwriters, and
Stanley G. Jewett of Henry Hewitt
& Co. The party had been at the
scene of the wreck Friday and in
spected the vessel as best they could
and U appeared as if the best method
of proceeding was to call for pro
posals to get the cargo out of the
ship.
Lumber Deckload Lost.
Of 2.200,000 feet of lumber that
was loaded aboard, the Welsh Prince
at Portland for oriental delivery
there is said to remain at) out 1,600,
000 feet in the. hold of the ship, the
remainder having been in her deck
load and that was floated off soon
after the accident, when partial sal
vage was carried out- - In addition
to the lumber there is said to be
3600 tons of steel, mostly - plates,
in the hold, with a small proportion
of general cargo.
One pieans of lifting the plates
from the depths of the vessel that
was discussed is the use of-an elec
tro magnet gear. -. If the cargo Is
sold Thursday it is believed that
system will be adopted. The ques
tion of the future of the wreck is
concerning some shipping interests.
Fears that it might prove a menace
to navigation are not general, how
ever, since some of the largest car
riers calling here have been piloted
past the vessel. ' ; - (
Protection A Ida Placed.
The bureau of lighthouse and
Corps of Engineers, U. S. A., took
steps immediately fter the wreck
to protect shipping by means of
placing additional navigation aids
and to make a survey of the waters
surrounding the vessel to indicate
the depths available. , Robert War
rack, superintendent of seventeenth
lighthouse district, . yesterday
ordered the tender Manzanita to the
scene to shift the Harrington point
gas buoy No. 12 to mark the stern
of the wreck, replacing a nun buoy
that was anchored there at first

tablish a beacon on the dyke there.

of the Welsh Prince and A. R. Pear
son, pilot of the lowan, is expected
to be concluded Tuesday before

tors, Edwards and Wynn. The case
was temporarily stopped last Tues

"K" LINE PLANS EXPANSION
Japanese Company to Send More
Vessels to Portland. '
Increased operation of vessels by
the "K" line' between this port and
Japan, also extending the opera
tion of the vessels of that flag in
the oriental-European trade, are
prospective, according to T. Araki,
manager of the line;who. is in the
city. Suzuki & Co., are agents
for the service at present, and while
72 ships were Portland callers dur
ing 1921r Mr. Araki said a much
larger number will be in the trade
for 1922. . :.
The "K" line contemplates the In
auguration of a passenger service
from Portland as soon as business
warrants, said the visitor. H re
ported the financial depression in
Japan as fast being overcome and
said that while buying" has been re
sumed, he anticipates the volume
will become normal in a compara
tively short time, which, he pointed
out, means orders for more lumber,
cereals and other Oregon products.
He is to remain here this week.
FRESHET NEAR HIGH STAGE
Recession of Water in Columbia
Forecast for Tomorrow.
Tomorrow will mark the turn of
the 1922 freshet, the stage of 22.3
meet attained up to 8 o'clock yes
terday morning being expected to
recede to 22.1 feet and 21.7 feet
Tuesday, the weather bureau has
forecast. Edward L. Wells, meteor
ologist, says he is hopeful reports
from the watershed area will con
tinue to indicate streams receding,
and he doubts if a resumption of
warmer weather will have sufficient
influence to again raise the volume
to an extent that will mark the crest
in excess of 22.3 feet. m- -
A fall of two-tenths of a foot at
Wenatchee, Umatilla and The Dalles,
with a drop of six-tenths of a foot
at Lewiston, were made, known yes
terday morning, thdugh gains were
recorded on the Willamette, amount
ing to four-tenths of a foot at
Eugene, six-tenths at Albany and
two-tenths at Salem, while the
change at Portland for 24 hours was
an increase of three-tenths. At
Oregon City no change was recorded.
