DREAM OF PORTLAND
OWNED STEAMER LINE
TO COME TRUE
McCormicks to Build First of
Big Steel Carriers in Ship
yard in East.
OTHERS LIKELY FOLLOWJ
XVumber Xast and General Cargo West
W1U Be Basis of Operation) Bail
tag Schooners to Bs Built.
The dream of years, a line of steam
ers - owned In Portland and operated
largely for the benefit of the Colum
bia river, is About to be realized.
The Charles R. McCormick Lumber
Company Is about to let the contract
. for the first of a fleet of steel hull
t steamers with -which Portland and the
Atlantic seaboard will be connected.
The vessel will be 415 feet in length
with a-lumber carrying capacity of
5,000,000 feet. . She will-cost in the
neighborhood of $700,000.
While this vessel is being built in a
shipyard on the Atlantic coast the St.
Helens "Shipbuilding company, owned
; by the McCormlcka, will be busy turn
ing out the two motor auxiliary sail
tug schooners which The Journal an
nounced, soma time ego.
. A line of steamers has been the
dream of the Portland Chamber of
Commerce and of local merchants for
years.., At no time has the necessity of
such a line been so strongly impressed
. otj these merchants as during the pres
ent shipping crisis caused by the Euro
pean war. With steamer rates high
"in the air the Portland trade has been
neglected by practically all the steam
er lines which' made this port before
the. war."
"A line of steamers such as we plan
will make Portland a factor In the
world's trade to be reckoned with,'
said H, F. McCormick over the long
distance wire from . St. Helens this !
morning. "With the exception of our I
coastwise fleet of six steamers thero
: isn't a line of steamers operated out
:f this port' in which Portland can
claim an interest.
"With us our -interests are all on the
Columbia . river, . We have selling
agencies at the leading California ports
and have now established a like branch
... at New York. We will be in shape to
handle general cargo from New York
to this coast in only small quantities
at first, but as our fleet is increased
weAvill be in shape to better .these fa
cilities. On the success of this first
steamer will depend the - extent to
which we enter the trade.
"It, is my hope that the example of
the war and the need of vessels in
' which Portland can place a reliance
will awaken people tiers to the neces
sity of going into' this thing right.
There, are territories unlimited in
which Portland can sell goods should
she have the facilities to reach them.
: Let us get together and go after these
fields ih the. way that we have proven
the most successful and we won't have
these financial depressions and hard
, times stories to hear."

JOHNSON OF
PORTLAND AWARDED
PENDLETON CONTRACT
Original Lowest Bidders Ex
plain Too Late That They
Made Mistake in Figures,
Salem, Or May 11. The contract
for the- construction of the new wing
of the eastern Oregon hospital for the
insane, at Pendleton, was let today fay
the state board of control to Olson &
Johnson company ef Portland,' the sec
ond lowest bidder, The firm's bid was
J77.680. '
Parker & Banfleld of Portland, who
had the lowest bid, came in. with a
written explanation that a mistake
totaling $4649.96 had been .made in
figuring and asked that the board raise
the bid Of $70,534 accordingly. They
pointed out that the bid would stilt be
$2497 under that of the Olson & John
son company. They argued that it
would be unfair to hold them to the
original bid and have them lose money.
Architect Knighton was called on
for his opinion and said" that he be
lieved the board could not be fair and
raise the bid. He said he believed it
would be best for all concerned to re
turn the Parker & Banfleld'check and
eliminate them from consideration, un
less they were wilting to do the work
at the figures named in the original
bid.
Kay said the board got into one mix
no by raising a bid after it was-sub-
tnltted and he did not propose te be a
ttartv to any more such deals. He re
t erred te the bid of A. J. Anderson for
the construction ef a building at the
state hospital for the insane, which
was raised $1000 a few Weeks ago on
a showing that he had made a mistake.
in nguring.
The board unanimously voted to give
Olson & Johnson company the contract
and return Parker & Banfleld s checH
for $3000. This check ' oould have
been forfeited but the board did not
feel that this would be right, under the
circumstances.

Prevents Acid Stomach

Most people'who complain of stom

absolutely .healthy and normal. The.
real trouble Is excessive ctd in the
stomach' aggravated byi food fermen-

fermentation causes wind which dis
tends the stomach abnormally, nursing
that full bloated feeling and retarding
the process of digestion.
In all such cases and they comprise
90 per cent ef all stomach difficulties
the first and only step necessary is
to neutralise the acid and stop the fer
mentation by taking in a little water

COC0ANUT OIL FINE
FOR WASHING-HAIR
If yon want to keep your hair in
good condition, ths lesa soap you
use the better. ' i
Most Soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and is very harmful. Juat
plain mulslfled cocoanut oil (which
is pure and entirely greaseless). is
much better than soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing,
as this can't possibly Injure the
hair. .
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub It in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund
ance of rich, creamy lather, and
cleanses the 'hair and scalp thor
oughly. The -lather rinses out
easily, and removes every particle
