As a first means of correcting thla false imnresslon Mr. McMurray will send in one consignment 10,000 copies of the recently Issued Portland book of the Oreson-Washlngton Railroad & Naviga tlon -company to Europe. These books are filled with tinted Illustrations show- lng Portland's modern buildings, tne harbor, the parka, the rose gardens and other features that rive this City OlS tlnctlon and show that the Rose City Is no more frontier than Paris. ' Booklets to Boost State. As the most Important event of the United States for lll the doom win Include a page announcement of the sec ond World's Christian Citixensntp con ference to be held in Portland next sum mer. "These thousands of books widely dis tributed will do Portland more good than anything yet sent out" declared Clement H. Congdon, publicity manager of the world conference who had been In Portland several days until yester day evening-. "They are the finest things I have seen for showing th beauty, wealth and splendid location of the city and the resources of Its tribu tary territory. The announcement of the world conference In Portland that draws an attendance of 20,000 delegates will also be conclusive that Portland Is not a village but a metropolis bound to be as famous as any city or isurope. Mr. Congdon asked, before he left for California last night, "What has Portland really dope to prepare for the world conference next summer?" ,Vhat are the definite arrangements ior hotel accommodations for the great throng while it is here. 'There are to be between 1500 and 1800 persons in Portland who know no word of any modern language. They will be Persians, Assyrians, Turks. What arrangements have been made for Interpreters? "There will be hundreds from France, from Germany, from Italy. Some of them know English. Others do not We will have Russians, and Scandina vians, Japaneae and Australians. There will not have been such another cos mopolitan gathering In the worl.. Means of Identification. For the French, German, Italians and other foreigners we have arranged an easy means of Identification. The Ger man will wear, say, a purple button; the Frenchman, red; the Italian, blue, and so on.- If they speak more than one language we will pin on them the colors to represent the countries whose language they are able to use. For the people of the United States will be little red, white and blue banners to be pinned on lapels and dress fronts. "I have been asked," continued Mr. Congdon, "what definite plan of elect ing delegatea to the conference has been adopted. The question is easily an swered. ' The plan is so effective that with the conference still many months away, we have 6000 names of persons who are positively arranging to come. The plan is so good that Garrett Fort and other pasaenger experts have been unable to find any fault with it They are so confident that arrangements are already being made for the special train service that will bring the people here. Will Draw Brainy Ken. "The plan Is simply this: In all the populoua eastern and middle west sec tlona we hav fild secretarlea nd dla-trict-managurs, These- attend U-4h denominational and civic meetings. They tell about the conference. The organiza tion electa ita delegate or delegates and makes arrangements for their transpor tation. "The Idea of a conference having as Ita speakers the great minds of all lands and dealing wtth the vital problems of all life, has singular appeal. There will be train loads of delegates who have come because of the conference urze "It has been said to me, 'It will be easy to draw local crowds or Pacific ; coast crowds to hear the world famed men who have agreed to come fom many nations to apeak.' I recognize the truth of that statement, but I will! not rest content upon any such aasur-1 ance. The people who attend the con- ference should come from east of the Rocky mountains and from abroad. And j It Is there we are working. We are I paying no attention to Oregon, and the Pacific coast. That attendance is as-' sured. We will bring the people from ! east of the mountains. They will come here to stay for over a week. They will be the best people that could possibly be brought here. It's Vf to Portland. "They will go away praising or criti cising Just as they have been enter tained. It Is up to Portland to wake up to the bigness of this conference. A bigger thing could not be planned for New York or Chicago. A greater honor could not be paid any city than has been paid Portland. An immediate under standing of the situation and a rising to the necessity for preparation Is Imper- ' atlve. A greater profit could not come to any city than will come to Portland If thla conference Is handled right"? t ! : Mr. Congdon spent several hours With ' C. C. Chapman, developnient manager I of the Commercial club, going over the loa,k plan and "preparation. He says the only tack he finds Is In local under- i standing of the bigness of the gather- j I . : . i itlih ODITY RATE CASE SETTLED AT SEATTLE J. H. Lothroo, manager of the trans portstloa committee pf- the Portland Chamber of Commerce, ' returned. Ihls morning from Seatye, .Where he attend ed a conference o the. commercial In terests o. .the Puget sound titles and Spokane, and the railroads' interested. In that district"'-.':'.. ' The conference wan In i' connection with the so-called Spokane differentials cane, An understanding, waa reached under which the Spokane commodity case, involving rates on a number of commodities" moving to' Spokane, from Seattle and Taooma.ln carload lots, is to be dismissed , simultaneously with publication by tne earners of new com modity rates, as follows: Blue vltrou rate ii cents, minimum 40,009 pounds: tin cana. Eu cents. 18.000 nniinda! drid fruit, tJ cehtfl. 'IQ.QOO pounds; salt and dried fish, 40 cents, 36,000 pounds; sugar, 41 cents, 44403 pounds; syrup, 43 cents, 36,000 pounds; canned goods, 43 cents, 40,000 pounds; tea, 6& cents. 24,000 pounds; rope, 45 cents, 80,000 pounds. "At the same time," explained Mr. Lothrop, "the Spokane differential dis tributing rates will be advanced to the basis of tha public service commission order naming distrlButlve rates within the state of Washington. Thla matter has been .before the public servjee com mission about five years and the ad justment reached seems to be satisfac tory to both carriers and commercial interests. . . ; '"' "The reduction" on the commodity rates referred td doea1 not 'materially affect the distributing ability of Port land wholesalers, but will be of substan tial benefit to manufacturers dr pro ducers of tin cans, dried fruit fish, syrup, canned goods and rope." RURAL ROUTE MAIL MUST BE COUNTED! During the months of October and November, a count on every piece of mall that goes out of Portland over the rural routes has been called for by the postofflce department. Two s routes lead directly out of the city, - LUMBER INDUSTRY TO FEEL CANAL IMPETUS "I predict that the lumber Industry will take great strides when the Panama canal Is o?encd," said William E.
