Tneadav nia-ht rife i CHANNEL THIRTY, FEET - DEEP, 300-600 WIDE, J Biennial' Report of Port of Portland Board Reviews Its Work of Twenty-five Years $6,941,056 IS EXPENDED X.sss Mossy Was Balssd by Taxation j la 1918 Than la ta Taraa PrsYioas Tsaxst "There is now 30 feet of water t zero In a channel from 300 to 600 feet wide." This sentence, taken from the bien nial report of the Port of Portlanl commission to. the legislature, epitom izes what has been accomplished by the port district since, it organization in 1891 and with the cooperation of he United States government. The reference is to the condition of the ship channel connecting Portland wilh the sea via the Willamette ana Co lumbia rivers. What this has cost the port district. practically all of which Is within the city of Portland, is shown In a con densed, statement of Income and ex penditures from incorporation, Feb ruary, 1891, to December 31. 1916. Total Zacoma $6,941,056. Tho total Income was $6,941,058.17, of which $4,655,923.56 was realized by taxation. $1,654,782.25 was operating revenue and $704,000" was secured by bond issues. Cash on hand. Decem ber 31. 1916, amounted to $79,210.15. In 1916 less money was raised by taxation than in any of the three pre vious years, the figures for 1913-16 inclusive, being: 1913, $347,810.46; 1914. $600,090.22; 1915. ' $359,093.8: 1916. $320,895.82. For 1916 total re enue amounted; to $595,190.75. against $727,680.93 for 1913, $1,051,084.60 for 1914. $629,298.62 for 1915. JTecessity for Organization. A portion setting forth the necessity which dictated the organization of the pbrt district Is as follows: 'The Port of Portland was created In 1891 In response to an imperative demand. Portland was confronted with conditions which. If not remedied. would prevent the growth of its ship ping. At that time there was only. 17 feet at low water at the shallowest places b'etween Portland and the sea. so that it was practically impossible to bring vessels drawing over 17 feet to Portland. It waa then the practice to lighter part of a vessel's cargo be tween Portland tho lower river, thus so increasing the normal cost of han dllug cargo as to place Portland at a disadvantage. Peopla Themselves Undertook Work. "For many years prior to the organ ization of the Port of Portland, the United Statea government had engaged In river Improvement work on the Co ly on congressional appropriations which were not always" forthcoming when needed, the people found it, nec essary to undertake the work them selves through the Port of Portland, worklne always under the direction or with the approval of , the United States engineers. Most of the early funds raised by the Port of Portland were cept in a few cases, the results did not warrant the expenditure, and it De- came necessary to resort to suction I dredges. "With these machines wonderful re- suits were secured, and where the 17- j foot bars were giving .shipping almost endless trouble when the port was or-1 ganized, there is now 30 feet of water at zero in a channel from 300 to 600 re" wide.

Mrs. Thompson of Hood River and Wasco temporarily lost her first battle In the house this morning when her bill to provide for permanent commitment of feeble mind ed came up on third reading. An effort was made by Clark and Childs to have the bill re-referred to the ways and means committee because it weuld entail additional expense through an increase of population at the feeble minded institution. This motion was lost, and the house in dulged in a long argument on the mer its of the measure. Krs. Thompson aeard. Mrs. Thompson, speaking In support of the bill, contended that tt fur nished a less drastic method for car ing for the problem of the feeble mind ed than was offered in the two ster ilization bills, one passed by the house i and the other by the senate. She ar gued tnai iv per vein ul wi icctie minded cases were caused by heredity. and that this class under present con ditions offered a big menace to the public. The permanent commitment law would shut these menaces away from their menace. Mrs. Thompson con- thetr menace. Mrs. Thompson con tended, because It would prevent re production Just as effectively as steril ization without being so drastic and seldom used as a remedy. Jonas Has Objections. W. Al Jones objected to the measure because of the fact that the approprl ation for the feeble minded Institu tion had already been passed and the enactment of the Thompson bill would cause a deficiency unless the appro priation were recalled and increased, Childs agreed with' Jones, while Sey mour Jones objected because the bill gave the county court the power to commit 6-year-old children, who were not menaces, even against the objec tion of 'the parents, who were willing and able to, care for them. At the end of the argument so many objections had been advanced to the measure that it was sent to tha ju dietary committee for further con sideration, particularly of the law points involved.
