NEWS OF THE PORT
rjoYernment supervision of the big
shipbuilding yerda of the Pacific
coast may become a real!! y.
Inspection of the various yards In
Portland Seattle and San Francisco,
yras made within the past month by a
government agent, it baa been stated.
' with tha assumption that It was to de
t.rmin tho number of yards which
would be willing to bid on government
work.?-. .
-The rumor about the waterfront
Saturday, however, was that this
move was in reality one to gather
! data as to the capacity ol these plants
: with the view to turning their prod
uct into government use in the cas
pT the' need of the government.
' Tha argument is raised that this is
not unusual, as every shipyard in Eng
land and Scotland has been taken over
by tha British government and that the
attention of the government has been
directed, towards keeping up tfie ef
ficiency of these organisations.
Tha: needs of th government in case
tha country should be drawn into the
present conflict will be enormous. The
difficulty of transporting troops, mu
nition and provisions as well as keep
IPs' tP the feeding of the Kuropean na
tions will demand hundreds of vessels.
" There are under construction on the
aeifk! coast at present and due for
-launching within the 12 month 70
steamers totaling 505, 74S tons.
:, Kvery one of these vessels could be
taken over by the government as fast
as completed, it la believed, despite the
fact that they are for foreign owners.
in addition to these contracts' at
t least two more steel yards are content
lated on Puget sound which- would
also add their mite.

Prominent business men of Portland,
who are vitally interested in the con
duct and management of the Port of
Portland are opposed to involving tne
port in petty politics or disrupting its
organization by the removal of experi
enced members of the commission be
cause of small internal squabbles fos
tered by a small minority of its mem
bership. They do not look with muoh
pleasure at the efforts of the coterie,
beck of the candidacy of George Kelly,
who are seaking to line the Multnomah
delegation and the legislature up to
refuse to reelect Alfred Tucker and
give him tha place.
Pity to XXrac la Politics.
"It is a pity for the Port of Portland
to be dragged into politics." is the
opinion expressed by T." B. Wilcox. "It
ought to ba entirely divorced from pol
itics, which has no place in connection
with its conduct. I thought the port
suffered the loss of a good mn when
Mr. Mears left it. but Mr. Tucker has
been doing good work and the commis
sion has been giving good and economi
cal service, lu or its administration,
ought not to be bothered with politics.'
W. B.VAyer. president of the Eastern
& Western Lumber company, expressed
himself strongly against th methods
being employed to prevent the confir
mation of Tucker.
"It is unfortunate." he said, "when
citizens are performing public service
efficiently and economically that
members of the legislature should lend
inemseives to tne designs of any
group of men who are trying to control
a public service.
Knows Problems of Por.
"Apparently there is no reason why
Mr. Tucker should not. be confirmed.
He is thoroughly qualified from years
of experience in the shipping business
to handle the problems of the port.
"By this service-he has proved him
self to be honest and capable and not
seeking any personal advantage."
Thla also expresses the sentiment of
various other men who have large in
terests in Portland affected - by the
work of the port commission. r
For some time strong pressure has
been brought to bear on the members
of the Multnomah delegation in the
interest of George Kelly's caniidacy
for Tucker's place on tha commission.
Even before John Mann ' and K. K.
Kubll, members of the delegation, pre
sented Kelly's name before the dele
gation for consideration, Kelly's
friends had been quietly sounding dlf '
ferent members, and they now contend ;
that a majority of the delegation will
give him their support. , V

cnt of Dredges Groves and his son, .

and the Kelly boom was started. Be
cause of the influences back of Kelly's
tiandldacy, which do not contend that
Tucker is not capable ami qualified
for the position but seek to repudiate
him solely, in order to accomplish soma
personal and political ends, much oppo
sition is being1 aroused to 1J, among
those who believe that tii Port of

poor condition. He was responsible for
sc-veral uprisings culminating in! the
second period with a fight between
Johnson and Patrick In which; the
league prexy was badly mauled. Both
received major penalties and the Port
land captain kept Johnson off the ice
for the'rest of the game.
From then until the finish pliyeraj
mauiea one anoiner ireeiy: Kven tne'
referees were dumped on the Ice by
the players, some of "them being in-
tentional.
Both goal keepers got' in the way
of many dangerous shots, their work
being only outstanding feature',
Portland came frombehlnd in th
third period and evened the count,
Irvln and Barbour,? distinguished
themselves by brilliant rushes.
Taylor scored tha tieing goal and
then ensued a desperate fight for

I have used Nuxated Iron widely In
my own practice In most severe aggra

to glk-e it a trial, all of.whorrf have
given me most surprising reports in
regard to Its great power 'as a health
and strength builder..
Many an athlete and prise tighter
has won the day simply because 'he
knew the secret of groat atrength and
endurance and filled his Mood with
iron before he went Into the affray;
wbile many another has gone down In
inglorious defeat simply for the lack
of Iron."
