ADOPTION OF DIESEL
ENGINES PROPOSED
Port Dredge Tenders Slated
' for Power Alterations.
EFFICIENCY IS OBJECT
Economy In Matter of Fuel Also
Taken Into Consideration in
Study of Problems.
Substitution of Diesel engines for
motive power in dredge tenders of
the Port of Portland fleet in place
of steam plants, with the idea of
gaining efficiency under a marked
saving in the matter of fuel, has
been taken up. Investigations under
way as to equipment required con
templates its' installation in one or
more new tenders, as well as in re
placing the steam rig aboard the
tender Wenonah.
The same character of power has
been approved for an exclusive
pilotboat for service off the entrance
to the Columbia river, and in order
to have a first-hand demonstration
of the working of a Diesel engine
of the type considered, under full
trial conditions, James H. Po-lhemus,
manager of the Port of Portland,
with James F. Healy, master me
chanic left last night for Seattle,
where today they will make a run
aboard a vessel fully powered. The
teBt Is to continue for several hours
hat they may be afforded oppor
tunity to look over all features of
the rig.
New Tenders Contemplated.
The steam vessels at present
classed as dredge tenders include the
tugs wenonah and John McCraken
and the sternwheeler Pronto. The
i launches Astoria and Marie have
much to do with dredge operations
and are gasoline driven.
The probabilities are that one or
two of the tenders will be offered
for sale on the working oat of the
Diesel engine programme, it being
held that the construction of new
hulls and modern equipment in keep
ing with the Diesel installation, as
well as changing needs of the serv
Ice, is warranted when compared
with the rehabilitation of such a
vessel as the McCraken, while the
Pronto would not be considered for
a new plant.
Economy Basis of Plan.
The Port of Portland commission
authorized plans and specifications
prepared for a new towboat a few
months ago, the desire being to add
a vessel that could be utilized for
helping to shift dredges, tow fuel
barges and doing such work, at
times aiding the big sternwheeler
Portland in moving and towing ves
sels. Of late more serious consideration
has been accorded the Diesel engine
as offering advantages from a fuel
standpoint, both as to requiring a
smaller supply at a much lower unit
cost and in space occupied aboard
and the size of crews.
HUIJj TO AID IN SALVAGING
Uncompleted Vessel Floated to
Receive Material Saved.
Towed by the sternwheeler Olym
pian, the Kudapasan, one of the
uncompleted wooden eteamship
hulls in the North Portland harbor
fleet remaining from the shipping
board's war drive, was moved into
the harbor yesterday to be prepared
for service in conjunction with a
contract undertaken by,M. Barde &
Sons for the removal of the wreck
of the British steamer Welsh Prince
from the Columbia river, off Al-toona.-
The hull was shifted into a
slip at Supple's dock, where consid
erable caulking is to be done in
seams above the light load line.
A second hull is to be withdrawn
from the former government fleet,
which today is owned by the Barde
interests, and they will be used
alongside the wreck in receiving
material and equipment recovered.
A eheerleg gear that formerly did
service at the main plant of the
Pacific Marine Iron Works is to
be mounted on one of the barges
for lifting salvaged parts; The
steamer Olympian is under lease as
part of the floating plant for the
salvage, operations.
CONFERENCE. PERSONNEL TIP
San Francisco Understood to
Want Another Delegate.
Portland operators of oriental ser
vices are awaiting receipt of a com
munication from San Francisco op
erators dealing with developments
In the reformation of the trans
pacific conference and, though the
text of the letter has not been given
out, it is assumed to deal with the
organization of a rate committee.
It has been intimated here that
San Francisco- opera-tors are not sat
isfied with a single representative
on the committee if there is one
each from British Columbia, Puget
sound and the Columbia river, tak
ing the stand that there should be
two from San Francisco, though
other ports have only one member.
Portlanders are not keen for ac
cording one port more strength than
another.
HELP OF PORT IS OFFERED
Assistance in Pumping Schooner
Free of Water May Be Given.
Assistance from the Port of Port
land In pumping the steam schooner
H. B. Lovejoy free of water so she
might be floated from a shoal off
near Reinier, where she lies with a
marked list after having dumped a
topheavy deckload of lumber Friday
afternoon, was offered yesterday. It
was arranged to send the steamer
Wenonah alongside if her services
were deemed required.
Reports from the scene were that
the vessel, after losing the deckload,
listed so that her engineroom was
filled. Men on vessels passing yes
terday said half the side of her
house was submerged because of the
list. The steamer is sailing in the
Charles Nelson -company's service
and was to have gotten away Thurs
day night for San Pedro, but it was
decided to take more lumber on
deck. On getting under way Friday
afternoon she proceeded only a short
distance when the list developed
sufficiently to dislodge the deck
cargo.
O.-W. K. & N. RECEIVES Ollj
First Shipment of Liquid Fuel
Arrives for Locomotives.
First of the fuel oil delivered at
the O.-W. R. & N. tank at terminal
No. 4, for the General Petroleum
company, which has entered the
Portland field, arrived late last
ight aboard the steamer Lyman
Stewart of the Union Oil company's
I line. She will begin discharging
'30.000 barrels of the liquid fuel there
today. A previous shipment of
1 35,000 barrels was delivered there
by the Standard Oil company imme-
diately following the determination
I of the O.-W. ft. &N. interests to
convert locomotives into oil burners
because of the coal strike develop
ments.
The tank has a storage capacity
of 55,000 barrels and while orig
inally built by the railroad corpora'
tion was under leas-e to the commis
sion of public docks. Control was
relinquished when the plan was an
nounced of burning oil in the loco
motives.
Chillicothe In Port.
The American ship Chillicothe,
sailing in the salmon fleet of the
Alaska-Portland Packers" associa
tion, made fast at terminal No. 1
late last night completing voyaga
from Nushagak with part of the
season's pack. She reached the river
at 10 o'clock Friday night. The Levi
G. Burgess, of the same fleet, ar
rived in Friday morning and was at
terminal No. 1 that night. Both
brought back cannery workers as
passengeTs. On the cargoes being
landed the Burgess will go into win
ter quarters at Goble and the Chilli
cothe returned to her owners, the
Columbia River Packers' association.
at Astoria.
Channel In Good Condition.
In the opinion of Major Richard
Park, corps of engineers, U. S. A.,
in charge of the Second Portland
district, the channel from Portland
to the'sea was never in better condi
tion than at present. The stage of
water, based on the measurement of
the engineers at the mouth of the
Willamette, shows a height of three
feet above zero. The weather
bureau gauge at Portland yesterday
showed the stage here to be 4.2
feet. Three dredges are engaged on
the lower Columbia in connection
with maintenance operations.
' Marine Notes.
The steamer Eastern Sailor, returning:
from the orient and Manila with general
cargo In the service of the Columbia
Pacific Shipping company, left Yoko
hama Friday, Bays a message to her op
erators. The steamer West Kader, of
the same line, Is scheduled to get away
from Manila tomorrow. The Montague,
loading here, and which went from In-man-Poulsen's
to the Southern Pacific
siding yesterday, is to be dispatched for
the other side Friday.
The Japanese steamer Tasmania Maru,
laden with lumber and other cargo for
Japanese ports, started for sea from
terminal No. 4 about 5 o'clock yesterday.
The French line steamer Alaska, car
rying lumber, canned goods and miscel
laneous freight for Bordeaux, Havre,
Antwerp and Hamburg, sails early this
morning from the Harvey dock, going
by way of Puget sound.
The Isthmian line steamer Steel Work
er, sailing In the New York and Balti
more service, arrived last night at ter
minal No. 1; also the steamer Mlnne-
sotan of the American-Hawaiian, line.
which has considerable inbound ship
ments and will load for the east coast.
The two vessels were assigned berths In
the slip at the terminal.
- The tank steamer Col. E. L. Drake,
due to have gqtten away from Willbridge
at daylight yesterday, was detained until
early afternoon because of slow dis
charge or oil.
The schooner Defiance arrived down
at Astoria yesterday afternoon with lum
ber and similar cargo, loaded at St. Hel
ens for Honolulu.
Millard T. Hartsen, collector of cus
toms at Seattle, was in the city yester
day. He called on Collector of Customs
Piper and spent some time at the Port
land office.
Employes of the customs house and
other federal departments enjoyed their
last half holiday for the summer period
yesterday. Until June, 1923, the various
departments are to be open to the public

DREDGING IN
HARBOR
SHIFTED UPSTREAM
Work Will Be Done Above
Big Hawthorne Bridge.
CHANNEL NOT ADEQUATE
Operations Around Supple Dock
for Motorship Movements
Are AVell Under Way.
After finishing- most of the mai
harbor dredging, so that the zone in
which the greatest activity centers
In general cargo handling has teen
cleared from dock to dock, the Port
of Portland commission has ex
tended its dredging campaign to
take in' the section above the Haw
thorne bridge and between the Haw
thorne and ' Morrison-street cross
lngst
One of the important parts of the
programme has to do with Supple'
dock at the foot of Belmont street,
where improvements are under way
in the construction of a 100-toot au
dition to the covered section and
the installation of an elevator, by
means of which river boats handling
paper from the Oregon City plant of
the Crown-Willamette Paper com
pany can berth there and the freight
be moved to the upper level with
the elevator gear.
Depths Are Inadequate.
Depths in the vicinity of the dock
are inadequate at low-water stages
to accommodate vessels of the Ocean
Motorship corporation's fleet, which
are to handle inbound and outbound
California .freight at Supple's dock
In the future, when capacity cargoes
are loaded, so the port authorities
have worked out a relief channel.
It will extend from deep water
toward the west side and near the
Hawthorne-avenue bridge diagonally
to the dock, with a sufficient space
for swinging ships off the dock so
they may enter either slip.
As nrovision was not made for de
nositing the dredged material in the
vicinity. General Manager Polhemuo
of the Port of Portland decided 10
numD it to a point above the Haw
thorne-avenue bridge and deposit it,
removing it when the channel is tin
ished and distributing it ashore.
The channel is to be 26 feet deep
at low water, with a width of 300
feet. It is estimated "three weeks
will be required for that channel
undertaking.
About a month's work remains
above the Hawthorne-avenue bridge.
The dredge "Willamette finished a
cut and fill yesterday at the inman
Poulsen mill property, where a new
cargo dock was constructed re
cently, and she la to work as well in
the channel to the- upper mills. A
new electric "booster," which is to
be connected with the discharge
pipeline of 30-inch dredges to In
crease the distance material may be
pumped, will be thoroughly tried out
there, power being rurmsnea irom
one of the stations above the Drldge.
The dredge Tualatin has been se
lected to start a big fill at Kelso in
connection with an extensive diking
project of the Long-Bell Lumber
company, which Is an essential part
of an extensive and strictly modern
lumber manufacturing plant being
established there.
Huge Job Faces Tualatin.
The Tualatin has completed dig
ging along the face of the Peninsula
Lumber company s dock property.
the material being depsited at the
lower end of the tract, and she will
be towed to Kelso Tuesday. Per
haps from 10,000,000 to 12.000,000 cu
bic yards of material will be lian
died there and, while the port may
have two dredges engaged at the
scene, it Is declared private dredging
equipment in the district will be re
quired to expedite the job.
The dredge Portland is continu
ing channel maintenance on the
east side of Swan island below the
plant of the Portland Flouring Mills
company, and the dredge Columbia
is operating in the main channel at
Linntbn oposite the Clark & Wilson
Lumber company's mill.
ESE GRAFT BOOKED
A. M. GIIiUESPIE, IXC, SIGNS
12,000-TOIf CARRIER.
Vessel Has Accommodations for
500 Steerage Passengers; Gen
eral Cargo to Be Loaded.
Offering a change in nationality
in the lengthy list of carriers which
annualy visit Portland is the addi
tion of the Chinese steamer Ber
muda, a 12,000-ton carrier that A. M.
Gillespie, Inc., yesterday announced
as due for late October loading to
Japanese ports, Shanghai and Hong
kong. The vessel has accommoda
tions for 500 steerage passengers, and
it is hoped to have most of them
filled by home-going Celestials
when she departs from this city.
Captain W. P. Ireland la master
of the vessel, and though consider
able cereal cargo is being booked
for her, she is going on berth for
general freight also. Besides Cap
tain Ireland there are British offi
cers abroad, while the crew is made
up of Chinese and Hindoes. H. M. H.
Nemazee of Shanghai is the owner
of the ship, which is to come here
from New York via Cuba.
G. R. Theiring, Portland manager
for the Gillespie interests, said yes
terday that while the owner of the
Bermuda had other ships. It was not
Intended to place more than the
Berumda on berth here and for the
single voyage. A. W. Kinney, trsff
fic manager for A. M. Gillespie, was
in the city yesterday on his way
from the Seattle headquarters to
San Francisco. Mr. Theiring was in
Seattle during the week when the
assignment of the Chinese steamer
for Portland loading was arranged.
FERRIES HAVE BIG TRADE
Long-Bell Company's Boats Take
1250 Cars in One Day.
KELSO, "Wash., Sept. 9. (Spe
cial.) The Long-Bell Ferry com
pany ferries from their landing at
the mill site south of Kelso to
Rainier did a tremendous business
Sunday and Monday. Sunday 1100
autos were transported and Mon
day the record was increased to
1250, the biggest day's business yet.
The company is operating two fer
ries at the present time and giving
prompt service.
The highway from Kelso to the
landing is in first-class shape, much
better than that from Kelso to
Kalama, where many cars have been I
mired down in th soft fills the -
past few days, and many autoists
plan to continue use of the Long
Bell route, even after the paving is
completed from Kalama south, as
they save 10 miles of rough road
from Kelso to Kalama via the Long
Bell ferry.
ANOTHER WHEAT SHIP HERE
Victoria Maru Arrives to Load
Grain for United Kingdom.
Coming from Muroran to join the
Columbia river grain fleet loading
for the United Kingdom market, the
Japanese steamer Victoria Maru re
ported at Astoria yesterday. The
vessel was listed for fumigation and
it is planned to start her for Port
land today. She loads in the inter
est of the Northern Grain & Ware
house company.
The Norwegian steamer Louise
Nielsen, also from the orient and at
Astoria for a week, left up at mia
night. She is under engagement to
Kerr, Gifford & Co. for United
Kingdom loading.
The Japanese steamer Toshida
Maru No. 1, the first carrier to ar
rive in conjunction with the Yam
ashita company's new schedule to
the far east, came into the harbor
yesterday and berthed at the West
Oregon mill to take on her first
consignments. After working 800,000
feet of lumber she goes to the In
man-Poulsen mill for more of th
same material, while additional
cargo is at terminal No. 4.
Mr. Campion Felicitated.
Harry F. Campion, whose respon
sibilities with the Port of Poltland
embrace all purchases for the or
ganization afloat and ashore, was
the recipient of felicitations yester
day because of the arrival of a sec
ond daughter in the Campion house
hold, while more congratulations
were sent Mrs. Campion.

OREGON'S BLUE SKY
LAW IS HELD LIE
Dennison Bill Favored
Corporation Head.
by
UNIFORM STATUTE URGED
T. B. Handley to Prepare Amend
ments to Oregon's Pres
ent Legal Code.
" SALEM, Or.. Sept. 9. (Special.)
Passage of tha so-called Dennison blue
sky law, which is now up for considera
tion in the United States senat. will go
a long way toward correcting the evils
existing at the present time with relation
to the sale of questionable stocks, bunds
and other securities In this state.
This was the statement made here
today by T. B. Handley, state corporation
commissioner, who has mads a careful
study of the OTegon slue-sky law and has
found it inadequate to stem the Influx
of foreign securities. As a result of the
defects and shortcomings of the blue-sky
law now in effect in Oregon the citizens'
of this state have lost many thousands of
dollars during the last few years. Amend
ment of the Oregon statute or a federal
blue-sky law such as that Introduced
by Representative Dennison are the only
means through which Oregon Investors
can hope to obtain protection, Mr. Hand
ley said. Letters received at the state
corporation department from Washing
ton, D. C, indicate that powerful Inter
est are using their influence to defeat
the Dennison blue-sky law when It Is
presented for final passage. Opponents
of the bill allege that it is unconstitu
tional and attempts to regulate and pre
vent In interstate commerce the handling
of securities, the sales of which are pro
hibited by various states.
Sale Prohibition Impossible.
Under the Oregon blue-sky law Mr.
Handley said It Is Impossible to prohibit
the sale of stocks, bonds and securities
offered by non-resident corporations,
with the result that the slate Is now
flooded with proposals of questionable
character.
As interpreted by Mr. Handley. based
upon a report prepared by A. G. Davis
of the Illinois securities department, all
sales ol securities under the Dennison
law which are declared to be unlawful
shall be void at the. election of the pur
chaser. Such a sale might have been
made to be absolutely void without quali
fication, but such provision Is fraught
with serious danger. In that it might ef
fect the title to property in the hands of
innocent purchasers. Then there Is no
undue burden on the purchaser should
he find himself defrauded to elect to ex
ercise his rights under the law. The
Dennison bill declares with particularity
what person shall be liable to auch pur
chaser and leaves no loophole for subter
fuge or shirking of liability. The Den
nison bill, according to Mr. Handley. is
the result of earoful and persistent
thought and is an evolution of the origi
nal idea. It is the result of a sincere
desire of all parties having to do with
its formulation to accomplish the good
purpose without placing any unnecessary
restriction on the sale of legitimate se
curities. It is an earnest effort to bal
ance the two principles.
, States Are Helpless.
"The Dennison bill," Mr. Handley said,
'Is the one thing lacklnr toward afford
ing effective messure for calling to a
halt the purveyors of fictitious and fraud
ulent, securities. wunout it states are
helpless to protect their citizens aganlst
this evil, more general In extent and more
expensive in cost than the stick-up man
and the yegg.
"If enacted Into a law It will be an
added factor to the suppression of fraud
and to the preservation of funds for
legitimate Investments. It will be the
foundation stone around which may be
built uniformity of state laws and es
tablish confidence In our industries. It
will do away with the unfair competition
between the true and the false, the frt
and the fictitious, the genuine and the
counteneit, and will save the widow's
dowry for the income intended and pre
serve the savings account of those who
labored for It. It will make every state
line a dead line for blue-sky salesmen."
Transactions by Mail.
In order to evade the Oregon blue-akv
law operators of questionable securities
make no attempt to obtain recornitlon
of the local corporation department, but
transact mucn of their business through
the mails and resort to Dartnernhin
schemes, which are nothing short of
roooery. as a result or these operations
many thousands of dollars are removed
from the stats and legitimate Indium
suffers.
Air. Handley some time aro Issued a
statement that the Oregon blue-sky law
had not met the requirements for whii-h
it was intended and that he would rec
ommend various amendments at the next
session ol toe legislature. He Is no
preparing these amendments which. If
approved, will tend to tighten the blue
sky statute as it relates to the sale of
non-resident securities. Better vet. hnw.
ever, Mr. Handley contends, will be the
passage or the Dennison federal blue-sky
law. which would place all states on a
uniform basis and regulate Interstate
commerce In securities.

KUROrKAX WHEAT DEMAND LIGHT
Large World Supplies Checks lluylng
From Abroad.
The weekly grain ravlew of Jordan,
Wentworth Co. of Portland follows:
Large world's supplies of wheat at the
outset of the European harvest period
oDerated to lessen the denmnd from
abroad and to force out free marketings
by the foreign raiser. Huylng for fu
ture needs has I't-en restricted to ship
ping Interests. The milling end of the
traiie has bitn rath-r Indifferent to its
needs. The large Canadian crop has
been the unsettling factor. Helling for
the falling of prices has not heen popular
nor profitable lately. The marketing by
the producer below cost of production
has a tendency to make for a slow pro
gramme. The drouth In the southwest finallv
worked Into the central ei-rttnn of the
country and has held tenaciously to the
record of previous September tempera
tures. More damage to corn has -followed
the heat and drouth. The claims
of the crop being early matured are not
to be taken as Indicating a normal crop
but abnormal. The early maturity has
been at the expense of the else of the
kernel and the weight of the grain. In
the southwest and wt-etern end of the
corn belt, the damage has n.'t only he
come Irreparable, but extended to fields
which had been thought safe. Ths gov
ernment reports showed the loss which
had been developed to the first of the
month, and this has undoubtedly been
Increased since that time. The price
should be materially higher, and the
market strength win continue.
