20 THE SUNDAY OTIEGOXIAX. PORTLAND. DECEMBER 3, 1923 TRIP ON GDWCRETE icccn Dcpnucn .uuLL IILUHLLLU Captain Conneil Impressed by War-Time Welcome. FAITH NOW LIES IDLE Master of Julia Iiiickenbach Pilot of First "Stone" Craft to Be Commissioned on Coast. War days, with the rush of ship construction and the various de signs that figured in the new mer chant fleet, were recalled yesterday by some of the Portland ers who met Captain Conneil, master of the steamer Julia Luckenbach, discharging- north Atlantic coast cargo, and former masier of the concrete steamer Faith. The Faith was the first of the "stone" ships to be commissioned on the Pacific and after her maiden voyage returned to the coast and visited this harbor. Her construction by private interests was followed by the government contracting for the same type, but the programme was not finished. The presence of the Faith attract ed much attention here, not only because she was new in maritime architecture but because concrete vessels were under way at Van couver, Wash., where five tugs, fitted with oil burning engines, were turned out for the United States army quartermaster depart ment. The availability of highly desirable material in this district for concrete requirements lent hope that some of the big carriers for the government might be assembled here. Trip on Faith Recalled. Captain Conneil said yesterday that he recalled with much pleasure his trip on the Faith, which came to load lumber, for the interest centered on the ship and the wel come extended to him and brother officers made a lasting impression. The Faith, which was sold by her original owners at a figure said to have been much less than cost, is lying at New Orleans, according to Captain Conneil. The Julia Luckenbach is to leave Portland tomorrow with about 1060 tons of cargo for the eastbound run and in the shipments are 500 tons of pig lead, more than 19,000 pigs. J. G. Euson, Portland manager for the line, says the loading of pigs of lead recalls the world war to him, for it was soon after a large quantity of lead was sent from Portland via the American-Hawaiian line, with which he was formerly associated, that the United States entered the war and he joined the navy. Jacob Luckenbach Sails. The steamer Jacob Luckenbach, which plies in the gulf trade and came into port Friday, was dis patched yesterday afternoon. She carried more than 400 tons of freight, in which were canned goods and other staples. The Julia Luck enbach will take aboard the last of prune consignments accumulated at terminal No. 1 for the Luckenbach interests, and while the crop is far from cleaned up it is believed from now until the end of the shipping season there wiil not be such large lots received as has been the case for several weeks. The steamer Robert Luckenbach, whichhas a 1 arge cargo from Boston and New York, will be in a week from today And the Lena Luckenbach, from New Orleans and Mobile is due Decem ber 12. VESSEL TO CARRY POLES West O'Koiva to Take Order on Next Trip Out. Cargo with which the steamer "West O'Rowa of the Columbia-Pacific Shipping company's flag will be dispatched the forepart of the week is in part fir poles, the lot being the last of an order filled here by O. V. Gamble, who booked some of the shipment on the Jap anese steamer Yojin Maru, which left last week. The poles were be ing loaded yesterday on the West O'Kowa at the Inman-Poulsen mill. It was estimated that could the poles be placed end to end they would extend for more than 15 miles. The steamer West Cayote is to get away from the harbor today for the far east with a large cargo. Work of discharging the steamer Pawldt at Terminal No. 4 is ex pected to reach a stage by tomor row or Tuesday that will permit her being dry docked for hull re pairs. When they are made she will be reloaded and sent across. WEST COAST SERVICE OPEN Vamusliltu Interests Inaugurate South American JLine. Inaugurating the new west coast service of the Yamashita company, the Japanese steamer Yoshida Maru No. 3 was cleared yesterday with cargo comprising 1006 barrels of flour for Paita, Peru; 566 barrels of flour and 350.000 feet of lumber for Callao. 280.000 feet of lumber for Mollendo, 153 barrels of flour for Oruro, Bolivia; 240.000 feet of lum ber for Iquique. 1,011,000 feet for Saji Antonia, Chile, and 1,500,000 feet for Antofagasta. The company will operate on a monthly schedule to South American countries on the Pacific eide and, while large vessels have been as siiAed, it is felt the increased trade prospects warrant their use. The same organization operates to Jap anese ports, with two clearings a month. OREGON FIR TOWES TO SEA Oregon Pine "Also Sets Out on Trip to Australia. The schooner Oregon Fir towed out of the Columbia river yesterday afternoon with Melbourne as her destination, carrying a capacity c:irgo of lumber, and the Oregon 1n her f lpt -mfi te unfl Rster-shin moved out of a loading berth to theH stream at Jrt. Helens about th same time and will soon be on her way to the Antipodes, shaping her course for Adelaide. She is lumber laden, too. The vessels are distinctive in de sign and size on the Pacific side, for as six-masters with "fore and aft rig" they are in a class of their own. The hulls were originally laid down for steamers and converted when the war terminated. Grant Smith & Co. operate the vessels and a number of Portlanti-ers are asso ciated as stockholders.

COLUMBIA RIVER DISTRICT LEADS WHOLE COAST IX SIZE OF APPLE CARGO FLOATED SINCE INCEPTION OF EXPORT MOVEMENT FOR WHICH SEASON IS RECORD BREAKER. iff i f- 1 1 ROYAL MAIL, STEAMER BfARE.TA - APPLE RECEIPTS LARS SEASON'S MOVEMENT- ESTI MATED 5 4 0,000 BOXES. Total Exports for Last Year Are Far Exceeded; Two Steam ers Now Loading. Receipts of apples for shipment by water at terminal No. 4 since the beginning of the present season are far in excess of the total ex ports for the 1921-22 season, with the shipping period less than half over. Exclusive of the cargoes of the refrigerator steamers Narenta and Tuscanstar, loading the last, of their bookings there, 250,000 boxes had been floated since October 1 and estimating that the two ships will take a total of 190,000 boxes there will remain at the terminal approximately. 100,000 boxes, ac counting for 540,000 boxes as rep resenting the receipts. Last sea son the movement reached 476,000 boxes. The Narenta, which is one of the exclusive refrigerator carriers as signed to the Pacific coast-European route for the fruit season, was to have finished her cargo last night, but it was determined to postpone final loading until this morning. The first estimate of 125,- 000 boxes for her to load at Portland will crowd the space, it was said, as up to Friday night 99,000 boxes had gone aboard. That figure represents more than the largest previous car go, which was 93,000 boxes and car ried by the Nebraska, fleetmate of the Narenta, which sailed Novem ber 6. Aboard the Narenta in the per sonal cnarge of Captain G. E. Warner are three boxes- of choice apples, one a gift from Mayor Baker to the lord mayor of London and the others from the commission of public docks and the Port of Port land commission to the chairman of the Port of London authority, Viscount Devenport, and to Sir Owen Philips, managing director of the Royal Mail Steam Packet com pany. The boxes were provided through Harry L. Hudson, manager rf tha nn-nt'a ininf ti-of f i h'lrfian The steamer Tuscanstar, of the Blue Star fleet, is to take on 'about 65,000 boxes and will finish tomor row or early Tuesday. The Gothic star, the first of the line to come this season, reached Glasgow last week with apples and the Roman star will be along about the middle of the month. In addition to ap ples the vessels load small lots of pears and cereals, with other freight at times. The apple movement via Portland this season is expected to reach about 1,000,000 boxes. The aim in the country is to clean up consignments to move by water in five months, but as a rule the actual shipping season at tidewater covers about six months, so the last fruit may not be floated until the close of March.

MASTER OFVESSEL. the car situation was relieved at the termination of the summer fruit movement is taxing the capacity of local cold storage plants. Storage space in San Francisco has been filling up so rapidly dur ing the past few weeks that offi cials of refrigerator companies have notified the railroads to accept no more apples for storage in this city. One of the big plants is unable to accommodate any more fruit, while stocks on the tracks and rolling in this direction will fill the others to their limits.- During the past week the move ment of apples into local ice houses amounted to approximately 50,CJ)0 boxes. Figures released today show a total on hanT of 345,720 boxes, as compared with 299,879 boxes at this time last year. Sev eral hundred carloads remain in the "Watsonville district and large quan tities are still held in sections of the Pacific northwest. Large lots of apples in local stor age plants have been put away for packers' account and a big percent age consists of red apples from the north' which will have to be con sumed within a certain time: Hence the argument by optimistic fruit interests who point out that the fruit has been stored at low prices, that the situation with regard to Newtown Pippins, the long-keeping variety, will show improvement during the early part of next year.

WARNER, seaboard cargoes, The Munindies is due on December 12.' The steam yacht Bertie Hanlon, which had been expected here for several days past, called at Eureka to deliver freight. The Marshfieid chamber of commerce 1 executive committee at its Friday meet ing adopted a resolution asking the j United Stntes shipping board to place ! Coos Bay on its list as H port of call, j Coos Bay was never placed on this list, I as the board thought the harbor insuffi- : cient for accommodating the craft; The I past year's demonstration of bringing in craft of from 8800 tons to 13,000 tons is considered sufficient proof that the har bor is safe for most craft.

Longshoremen to the number of 1100 were cled to handle cargo aboard 28 ships in the harbor yes terday, according to H. S. Eaton, manager of the Portland "Waterfront Employers' union, who says it was the record day since the establish ment of a hall in the spring by the employers. Mr. Eaton believed the record beat that of any day this year. Other than the absence of pickets and banners yesterday, there was no change apparent in the strike situa tion. The coming from New York Friday of A. J. Clopek, president of the International Longshoremen's association, has been followed by meetings with members of the longshoremen's union and plans with respect, to the strike will be worked out. Information reached the city yes terday that the shipping board had awarded a contract for stevedoring its vessels here to the Portland Stevedoring company. The award was made as a result of proposals asked for some time ago. At first the board, after hearings with stevedores at various ports, issued a schedule of charges and conditions to be followed, but general objec tion to that brought about a call for bids. Whether the terms of the con tract will have a bearing on the present system of employing long shoremen has not been given out. Marine Notes.

It was, indeed, a veritable revelation! "I had suffered agony for years from rheumatism and its attendant disorders, and Mrs. Reed was also tortured with the demon Neuritis, almost beyond endurance.
