10 THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, FRIDAY, JUNE 11, 1815. PORT ADVANTAGES OF PORTLAND SUPERIOR: BUT MUST BE USED Senator. Lane ; Says Prompt . . Action Necessary or Other . , Places Will Cinch Business WANTS RULING CHANGED Parmtttisr XaUroad to Cfc&r X Than Cost to KNt Wtor Com " '- petition. Boeluod' Unfair. United States Senator Lane said to ' the 'Progressive. Business Men's club yesterday afternoon that Portland has natural port advantages superior to those of other Pacific cities, but he -added that if Portland falls to act promptly In . the large development of her superior advantages she will pres ently find It of no use. for others will presently have double cinched the business. 0 ' - Portland should be doing the bulk of the Alaska, the oriental, the 8outh American and the European business originating in the Pacific northwest. he urged. But sseaiiie ana rum. sound . have gotten so much of , the business by nature Portland s tnat a bigger city has been builtv on the sound than in the Columbia basin. "We must take immediate steps to foster -water transportation," urged the senator. ' Wants Killing Caaaged. "When I - go back t,o Washington I'm going to see-if a ruling of the interstate commerce commission can be corrected. This ruling permits railroads to haul sto water terminal points. In meeting water competition, ' at rates less than the cost of haul ing and for less than the boats can carry the commodities. They make up their losses to these points by -advancing the rate to intermediate points not affected by water compe tition. , When, by such means they destroy water competition and the boats have gone out of service, the railroads advance their rates to the water terminal points again. "I believe the interstate commerce commission should . rule that a rall road must not furnish transportation for less than cost. I believe the boats should be given a chance to live. "Not to hurt the railroads! They have done much In pioneer develop ment, but to establish for each mode of transportation its place, for the general' good.- "I ' want the help of the business clubs, of your club, when I do this, because I am going to keep on fight ing until there is a result." Senator Lane told how he wants the Portland r . waterfront handled, t "Condemn ft strip on . both sides the river from Sellwood to Linnton and St. Johns. Let benefits balance dam ages and the whole won't cost the city a ten-dollar bill. ' Build up a bulkhead and dredge out the harbor to a minimum of 40 feet. With the dredged material fill in solidly back of the bulkhead and put' thereon wharves and railroad tracks and make your harbor xree to ail tnai come. V'i. "... "." "If ' this can't be done. : go down into your lower harbor or over on the Columbia " river side and develop a . great, free port, v Broad Plan Essential. ' The commercial life of Portland depends on the breadth of plan. "Portland Is not doing as much business in proportion to population as when j I was a youngster, The collector of customs says we are not . i v- Aijm lit tioins KB muca HO we uiu av ma . ago. I am : informed that the com merce of Seattle last April was $ 20,- - 000.000 and ours for -the same month, J51.700.00O. "There Is no reason In economics ; for this. We have the fresh water harbor. We have the exclusive watei grade route to the interior. We have the immense tributary country. But when - X view the facts ' and note the apathy that has caused us to lose and not go ahead, it makes me Blck; I want to fight." The luncheon of the business men was ' held in the Multnomah hotel. There were songs by the Ad club quartet and Miss M. I. Ash accom panied by Miss ' Hazel Mills, and music by the Multnomah orchestra. Dr. W. P. Flebig told of the plan for the annual beach excursion of the club, -this year to Gearhart, June 26 and 27. Walter S. Asher presided. Examinations for Teachers Fixed Salem. Or., June 11.

Secretary of the Navy Daniels, Rear Admiral Benson, chief Of the navy staff. Rear Admiral Caldwell and other officials began actively today to pre-pare-far a greater navy. This activity in the navy is intend ed to keep pace with the progressive movement of Secretary of War Gar rison and his army staff. They will have plans ready soon for a greater navy. The' character of the work be ing done by both the army and navy heads indicates - now that neither of the executive branches will be caught napping should there be an extra ses sion of congress. Secretary Daniels said today that the chief topics of discussion were the types of cruisers to be on the con struction program, the protection of battleships from torpedoes and the best plan to secure a naval reserve. The reserve is to consist of 25,000 additional men, who are to be mostly fcrmer sailors of ths navy. The com pensation for the navy men who are enlisted will be in proportion to the length of their active service. There seems to be no question that the construction program will Include several battle cruisers of which the United States has none on its list. The question of protecting warships. and especially battleships, from tor pedoes Is one of tremedous importance. With the developments of this question it is promised by officials that there will be special attention paid to the development and Improvement in all up-to-date essentials of the submarine service. -- ' "Old Pacific": Graduates Class Pacific University, Forest Grove, Or June 11.
