Bill Enacted by Congress
Benefits Many Ports.
COOS BAY TAKES LEAD
Total of' $3,310,000 to Be Avail
able for Channel Betterments
In Marshfield District.
Highly important waterway pro
jects in behalf of Oregon's com
merce, involving channel improve
ments for the direct benefit of
navigation, are embraced in the
authorization bill passed last week
by congress, and from the stand
point of the amount involved that
having to do with Coos Bay better
ments, aggregating $3,310,000, takes
first place.
The Umpqua river project, for
which $276,500 is to be made avail
able as the government's half sham
to offset that provided by the tax
payers of the district, is of marked
importance. Another item of $1,750,
000, for the lower , Columbia and
"Willamette rivers, covers an addi
tional dredge, estimated to cost
about $750,000, and provides for
continuation of diking already un
der way. '
Funds for all work outlined will
be made available through the regu
lar war department bill, according
t the understanding here. The
Hact that the projects were in the
authorization bill, with no definite
means provided for obtaining the
funds required caused some to feel
that it might be necessary to enact
special legislation to set aside
money, but that is said to be em
braced in the war department meas
ure. In the regular rivers and har
bors bill, signed June 30, a total of
$42,815,661 was appropriated for
maintenance work, so existing pro
jects were cared for.
New Jetty Provided for.
The Coos Bay wfcrk assured in the
authorization bill is for a new south
jetty at the entrance and restora
tlon of the north jetty, also im
provement of Isthmus slough with a
22-foot channel to Millington, about
three and a half miles above Marsh
field. There is a 22-foot channel
project for the bay proper, extend
ing from the entrance to Marshfield,
and that was virtually carried out
some time ago save for a reef, about
all of which has been blasted, and
operations at present are confined
to removing the material loosened.
That is expected to be entirely out
of the way next season.
The Umpqua river project Is for
completion of the north Jetty, on
which the Port of Umpqua has ex
pended about $200,000, the money be
ing provided from port district
taxes. The government appropria
tion of $276,500 represents one-half
of the estimated total cost.
Also on the coast is another jetty
project, that at Newport, which is
under way. Coquille river work
has been prosecuted but was stopped
this month because of seasonable
conditions, the aim being to carry
on improvements at the entrance
during the most favorable summer
months.
Dikes Important Feature. t
As to the lower Willamette and
Columbia rivers, the government
maintains the pipeline dredges
Multnomah and Wahkiakum as
well as the self-propelling dredge
Qlatsop. on channel digging, and it
is possible the dredge authorized in
the new project will be of the pipe
line type. Additional funds for dike
building at certain bars are held of
prime importance. About a dozen
dikes are already decided on for this
season. Those previously construct
ed have produced such encouraging
results that with a complete system
working it is hoped to control the
current to maintain deep water,
thereby reducing dredging to a
minimum.
Authorization of work in Wil
lamette slough, in connection with
which $23,250 is mentioned, is for
the removal of two dikes and a dam
so towboats may move rafts and
other tows that way, escaping
strong currents in the main river in
the freshet season, and keeping out
of the way of loaded vessels which
are troubled at times by tows mov
ing from one side of the- stream to
the other. The work in the slough
is contingent on local interests pro
viding an equal amount of money.
There is an item of $4620 for the
Clatskanle river that will be ex
pended for channel work between
the city of Clatskanle and the Co
lumbia river.

PORT NEEDS DISCUSSED
OIyMPIA HEARS TALKS ON
COMMERCIAL FAILURES.
Opportunity to Get Ahead With
Proper Development of Water
front Is Pointed Oat.
OLTMPIA. Wash., Sept. 23. (Spe
cial.) Olympia'a history as a ship
ping point, its failure to take ad
vantage of opportunities offered in
the past lor port development and
the consequent lack of growth, and
the possibilities to be attained
through the creating of a port of
Olympia with harbor development
and attraction of overseas shipping
to the port were discussed at the
Rotary club's luncheon yesterday.
The topics were assigned in view
of the decision of the county com
missioners that the question of
creating of the port of Olympia, em
bracing all of Thurston county,
should be placed on the ballot for
the November election.
J. M. Hitt discussed briefly the
early shipping history of Olympia,
beginning with the days when the
first shingles, hand carved from a
cedar tree which stood where Capi
tal park now stands, were , trans
ported by canoe to Nisqually, where
they were traded for peas and mo
lasses. The reason for Olympia's failure
to grow as a. commercial city was
its failure to provide a harbor big
enough and deep enough to care
for the larger ships which natur
ally were built with the develop
ment of commerce, J. Li. Petere told
the Rotarians.
The growth of cities keeps pace
with harbor development, Roscoe
Kullerton said, quoting figures to
show that Portland, Seattle, Astoria,
Aberdeen and other cities have
grown in greater proportion with
the development of their ports than
nr. ve the inland cities which had
no such development.

TRIP ROUGH AND STORMY
Modern Columbus, Bronzed Prod

Glad Journey Is Over.
VICTORIA, B. C, Sept. 23. Cap
tain George Waard, a modern Co
Iumbus. has spanned the broad Pa
cific in a 23-ton Chinese fishing;
Junk', with hia Chinese wife as
helmsman, his 9-year-oia son as
cook and cabin boy and a foremast
crew of three Chinese, of whom two
had never before been beyond the
confine of Hongkong- harbor. The
vessel will call at Portland on the
way to the canal.
Tired of lifo on the China coast.
Captain Waard decided to return to
British Columbia, his boyhood home.
So he fashioned a ship, signed on
hands and embarked with his family
for America. That was at snangnai,
June 21.
6300-Mile Voyage Ended.
This week saw the finish of the
remarkable voyage of more than
6300 miles of the Pacific. Into Vic
toria harbor Tuesday stole a ran
tastic craft, the like of which had
never before Deen seen in menu
waters. People on shore rubbed
their eyes In bewilderment at the
stransre vessel, with its towering
stern, stump of a bow, amazing coat
of red and blue and yellow, two
bulirine-. brilliant fish eyes glaring
from either side of the stem, three
ill-cut sails bellying in the breese
and over all the five-striped flag
of the Chinese republic
Th full tale of the 91 days at
sea, as told by Captain Waard and
his wife, matches the highest flights
of the imagination. Second only in
interest to the Junk ltseir was a
snake skin as great around as a
man's thigh and ten feet in length,
on view on deck.
One night," said Captain waara
nr this tronhv. "when at anchor orr
the China coast, the barking of our
chow dog awakened me. On the
China coast you sleep with your gun
on your pillow. So I naa it nanny
as I sprang up, thinking pirates
perhaps were boarding the ship.
The sight to meet my eyes was the
snake slithering1 down from the
fleck irtto the cabin. It took four
shots to finish the beggar, and then
I threw him out on the deck.
Snake Put In Pot.
Half a minute later I followed
him. But it was too late, -lnese
fellows (pointing to the Chinese
seamen) already had him chopped
up and In the pot. I didn't even get
all his skin."
Full of Dride in his vessel, the
ekipper had a thousand instances
of her seaworthiness.
"She'll ride anything. I'j she
wouldn't, we wouldn't be here. It
was the 'roughest trip I have ever
yaria and I have made aplenty.
She's here as dry as on the day of
her launching, not a drop of water
In her.
"Nervous? Not a bit of it.. The
Shanghai people were when we, left.
Rut T knew what was before us
no doctoring, no fresh provisions, no
Ice chest, hardship unstinted. I knew
all that and so did mother.
WatAr? Plenty OI II lor anna
lng. The tanks carry oetween w
and 500 gallons. Washing clothes
was out of the question, vvnne wo
couldn't even commence to think of
h.vlnff a bath. As for the rest,
there was always a fish to be caught
on the road, a bird to De snot, or a
porpoise to be harpooned, r 00a was
the least of our worries.

But with the trip over. Captain
woarri BTnilpd and admitted he was
glad. His Chinese wife at the tiller
concurred. "How did you like tne
trip?" she was asked.
-wii not very much. It was
ir.no- wair and very rough, but still
wft are afe."
Little Bob, 9 years old, born in
China, with the voice and language
of a westerner but the features of a
Chinaman, lent his part to tne in
terview. "I didn't like it very much. Too
much sea sick," he admitted, rnen,
licking first the cone in one hand,
added, "Victoria more better than
Shanghai. Ice cream more cheap
here."
"If it wasn't for her we wouldn't
be here," said the valiant skipper of
his wife. "She can handle the ship
better than I can, and the crew hop
about when she gives orders. No,
she ftn't the mate, she's the master."
Captain Is Sea Product.
Big and brawny, Waard is a thor
ough product of the sea, bronzed
and wrinkled by the suns and winds
of many waters. Mild-mannered and
affa-bl-e, he seems to have oome thing
of th Imperturbability of the ocean
itself, gained through a lifetime of
voyaging on the broad bosom. A
Hollander by birth, ho came to Can
ada as a laid and. went to sea with
tha sealing fleet from victoria at
the ago of 11. Tears later ho went
to Chin.
The Amoy, as his Junk Is known,
was built at Amoy at the cost of
four months' labor and somo thou
sands of dollars. She is 69 feet over
all, has an 18-foot beam and five
foot draft. Her, Bails are so ar
ranged that one man can manipu
late them all If necessary. The ves
sel Is id-entical in every respect of
hull and lines with the fishing junk
of - the China sea, even to the cus
tomary eyes. To the Chinaman the
ship's eyes are naore important than
her boats. They not only have to
be there, but they must be placed
there on certain days Joss days
with behind them a bit of money
and a Bcrap of paper with some
scribbling on It, all very significant
ceremonies to the China seaman.
Were the junk not so adorned, he
reasons, how could it see In the
dark? Ships, like people, have need
of eyes to get safely about.
Voyage Is Thrilling.
The tale of the trip is a stirring
one. scarcely naa onangnai Deen
left behind when typhoons swept
down. The 1200 miles to Hakodate,
North Japan, reached July 12. was
one continual struggle. Six days
later Hakodate was left, but the
storm rushed up from the east and
south, driving the junk ever north
and north, until, passing among tha
Aleutian islands, it burst into the
Behring- sea. . Repeatedly the rud
der was carried away, to be re
paired only to be swept away again.
Half the distance was covered with
a jury rudder dragging the vessel
back. Calms and gales succeeded
each other.
Unalaska, in the Aleutians, was
soug-ht for refuge August 28 and
left again September 1. On this last
leg of the voyage better, luck wag

met with. A fair breeze sent him
down the coast and in past Flattery.
Now that he Is safely on the Pa
cific coast, Waard intends to navi
gate its entire length In his strange
craft, pass through the canal and
up the Atlantic side. In Seattle,
Portland, San Francisco and other
ports en route he will exhibit his
ship. When he is through with the
American continent he plans to
orwaat 4t Atlantic to Europe.

LONGSHORE CREWS BUSY'
888 EMPLOYED IX PORT ON
JLAST FRIDAY.
Gangs Equally as Large Said to
Have Been Engaged In
, Harbor Yesterday.
Longshore work which drew 888
men to handle cargo aboard 24 ves
sels Friday was said to have fur
nished as much employment yes
terday, and It was estimated there
would be a rush for ths remainder
of the month, principally because
of the necessity of dispatching
grain cargoes "before October.
The men were hired at the neutral
hall, and it was said there yester
day that many who left the clt. to
engage in ftshlng and follow other
vocations are returning, so there
would be no question about meet
ing calls for longshoremen. The
number working for the lest two
days of the week is rated the peak
since the settlement of the long
shore strike the latter part of June.
Additional facilities have ben
provided at the hall for dispatching
men, Fred Buckman and A. E
Barnes of Longshoremen's Union
S8-6, having been named to serve
as dispatchers for members of their
local, while M. Milner and F. Heuser
are dispatchers for the nsn-union
workers. The union men are repre
sented on the managing committee
for the hall by Herman Larson, who
was named by the local last week
to succeed Fred Buckman in that
capacity.
Orders were placed yesterday for
gangs to work some of the vesiels
in port today, they being such as
are operated on schedule. It was
reported that the same line of ac
tivity looking to a strike move was
be'ng continued by I. W. W. follow
ers, but the date had not been given
out.

manager of the Pacific Steamship com
pany, was In the city yesterday on his

MARINER TAKES AUTO ALONG
High Cost of Motoring Is Solved
by Master of Schooner.
ABERDEEN, Wash., Sept. 23.
(Special.) The high cost of motor
ing in territories outside the United
States is sometimes almost prohib
itlve, and the high cost of freight
transportation also looms big, when
autos are shipped, but Captain A.
Abrahamson. commander of the
four-masted schooner Alvena, has
solved both. On his last voyage
to Honolulu Captain Abrahamson
stowed his flivver In the hold of
the ship and packed a few cans of
gasoline on the back seat when he
left Grays harbor.
Arrived in Honolulu, his flivver
was unloaded and the gasoline
stored conveniently, and the captain
explored the Island to his heart's
content when off duty. Arrived on
the harbor again, the flivver was
brought into play and the harbor
roads are being explored while the
ship loads for another voyage.
The Alvena reached this port
Wednesday morning.
Dredging to Start Soon.
