Representative W. C. Hawley was
Tuesday asked In a telegram sent by
the Portland Chamber of Commerce to
withdraw his opposition to tha bill be
fore the house which wlU permit ves
sels. Inward or outward bound, with
full Portland, cargoes to pass Astoria
without the necessity of a stop to fil
a sworn copy of the ship's manifest.
This bill has been passed by the sen
ate, and is designed to eliminate what
are sometimes serious delays to ship
ping, occasioned by the provisions of a
bill which is now a relic of the days
when this section was divided into two
customs dstricts, the Willamette and
Columbia.
Because of any cargo destined to or
originating in the former Willamette
district, necessarily passing through
the Columbia district, which had its
customs collector at Astoria, copies
or me- manliest were required to oe
filed with the collector, at Astoria.
With the inclusion of all Oregon In one
customs district, with headquarters in
Portland, this former requirement is
eliminated so far as any actual need
for government purposes is concerned.
It Is pointed out that because of tide
conditions vessels stopping at Astoria
to file the manifest on care-oes wfcollv
for Portland frequently are delayed for
hours. The continued requirement
under the statutes that manifests must
still bs filed at Astoria, it is pointed
out, hurts commerce without resulting.
In any goo4 to anyone.

sition 10 uu repeat or tne requirement
is said to be act In for Astoria inter.
est. The Chamber of Commerce, in
na leiearam asamg tnat Representa
tive Hawley withdraw his opposition,
pointed out that the stonsaf of
sels with Portland cargoes at Astoria
does not in any manner benefit that
city.

Power company is not to be permitted
to loop its Interurban cars on Yam'

city council today. !

A , a C . . . 1 , '
to loop all the Interurban cars com
ing across the Hawthorne bridge and
down Second, street on Yamhill.
Objections to the plan were made
because of the public market being lo
cated on Yamhill street and conges
tion which would result if the large
cars traveled the street. Members of
the council declared that they had no
objection to looping on Taylor street,
however.
