SEMTE FDR SHIP BILL
MEXACE TO SUBSIDY LIES IX
BLOCKING OF VOTE.
Insurgent Republicans Declared
to Be Planning Filibuster to
Force Extra Session.
BY MARK SULLIVAN.
(Copyright by the Hew York Evening
Post. Published by Arrangement.)
WASHINGTON, D. C, Dec. 2.
(Special.) The best judgment Is
that there are enough votes to pass
the ship subsidy bill in the present
senate, provided it is permitted to
come to a rollcall. Of the 80 demo
crats in the senate, two are expected
to vote in favor of the bill. These
are the senators from Louisiana.
With these two added to the total
republican strength of the senate
there would be an aggregate of 61
votes, but of the 59 republican sen
ators, it is expected that 13 will
, join the main body of democrats in
opposition. If this computation
should turn out to be accurate, the
result would oe 46 voteB against the
subsidy and 50 in favor of it.
But the real menace to the sub
sidy lies not in its coming to a vote,
but rather in a filibuster, which, if
it comes, will proceed more from the
13 insurgent republican lenatorB
than from the democrats. The pres
ent disposition of the democrats is
not to filibuster and not to force a
special session of the new congress
after March 4. The insurgent re
publicans, on the other hand, are
very much disposed to filibuster on
the Bhip subsidy bill, and also, for
other reasons, to force President
Harding to call an extra session aft
er March 4. The insurgent repub
lican leaders tala the position that
Uncle Sam haB hired a lot of new
men to run the show and that the
men should have a chance to see
what they can do without waiting a
full year, until December, 1923.
WILLPOLO REACHES TACOMA
Long List of Vessels Due Within
Next Few Weeks.
TACOMA,' Wash., Dec. .2. (Spe
cial.) With the arrival of the Will
iams line vessel, Willpolo, which
docked just astern of the Hakushika
Maru, the Tacoma port terminals
locking list for the first half oi
December became effective with a
long list of vessels due wIThin the
next few weeks.
The Willpolo brought general
freight from New York, Philadel
phia. Norfolk and various other east
coa.st points for Tacoma and neigh
boring cities.
To date 11 other vessels are sched
uled to arrive at the port terminals
prior to December 15, and new dates
are being received with considerable
frequency, it was said by port offi
cials The Carylon, of the Steele S-team-Bhip
company, is due to reach port
tomorrow from New York direct and
hor. Tacoma freight will be followed
two days later by the Tacoma-built
motorshlp Kennecott, which is
bringing a large shipment of goods
consigned to southwest Washington
merchants.
WILLAMETTE RIVER IS iOW
Rise Because of Rains Is Not Ex
pected Immediately.
The Willamette river at Portland,
having had an average mean stage.
' of 2.1' feet above zero during No
vember, whereas the normal heighth,
based on past tallies, is 4.1 feet,
maintained the lowest stage for the
same period since November, 1917,
when the mean average was 1.8 feet
and previous to that the lowest in
November was in 1895 with a stage
of one foot In 1905 the November
record was low also, 2.3 feet being
the average.
A rise because of late rain is not
in early prospect, Edward I Wells,
meteorologist of the weather bu
reau, pointed out that usually at
least two heavy rain periods are
experienced before a marked influ
ence is noted in the stage of water.
As a rule the Upper Willamette
conditions permitted the resumption
of navigation beyond Salem and as
far as Corvallis by the middle of
November, but this season it is said
that would have been a drawback.
Dredge Completes Channel.
HOOD RIVER. Or., Dec. 2. (Spe
cial.) A dredge brought by Colum
bia river transportation interests
and apple shippers has completed
cutting a 10-foot channel from mid
stream to the local docks. The
dredging was made necessary to fa
cilitate movement of apples from
here by boat to Portland terminal
docks for export to the United King
dom. The channel will enable boats
to ply between the docks and mid
stream at the lowest stage of the
river, it is said.

teems with men of every race. Then more sun
lit days at sea until with Yokohama the endless
