SATURDAY DECEMBER 1,22. 1 1917. 8 FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TAKES SIDES WITH THE WILLAMETTE VALLEY LUMBERMEN FORES I, SERVICE IS TAKING PART IN LIMBER CASE Strong Brief Filed iri Case Be fore Interstate Commerce Commission for Lower Rates. GOVERNMENT IS AFFECTED 3y Reason of Restriction Placed on Federal Timber Holdings, Value of Forests Is Lessened. -. The department of agriculture, for the i forest service, has filed with the Interstate- commerce commission a strong brief upholding the contentions of the Willamette Valley Lumbermen's . asso- ' ctation In Its complaint against' the Southern Pacific company and the . northern lines, charging discrimination in freight rate against lumber mills In the- Willamette valley. In Its brief, counsel for the Willamette , Valley Lumbermen's association points Out that members of the association are shut out of important markets for their, products by reason of the fact that the railroads . refuse to place the Wil- ' lamette valley shippers in the coast group for rate-making purposes, which would give them the Portland rate. . By reason of this fact they state that the, mills involved are denied an oppor tunity to market their output in Mon tana. Wyoming, Nebraska, the Dakotas, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan, and also in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Canada, To this territory, from Mis V soula and Shelby, Mont., they seek the ' establishment of rates on the Portland baslsT At present shipments take the , local rate to Portland, plus the coast .group rate of 40 cents beyond, giving mills in the coast group such an advant age as to shut out the Willamette valley mills. '-;- Owns Mneh Timber The reason for this, according. to com- plalnants, is that there are ho Joint through rates through Portland via the Southern Pacific and the Great North ern; Northern Pacific and Chicago, Mil waukee & St. Paul roads. The local rates to Portland from Willamette val ley mills range from 4 to 13 cents per 100 pounds. A Primarily the forest service's interest fn the proceeding lies in the fact that within the national forest areas in the ' :. Willamette valley are approximately 47,500.000,000 feet. b. m., of standing . timber, "besides many billions of feet on '-i lands covered by the forfeited Oregon - & California grant, partly within and partly without national forests in the same watershed. ' Continuing on this point, the brief ays: " 111 Washington west of the summit of , the Cascades and in the Columbia river watershed west of the same tine, all hav trig the coast rates, the estimated stand la 67,500,000,000 reet. The amount or - timber 'sold by the forest service in the former are from 1913 to 1917, inclusive, Is 193.000.000 feet, and In the latter area, 28,000.000 feet, i Of the 193,000,000 feet, 163,000,000 .feet was in one sale. .I; pregoa Is Held Back , Practically ..all of the timber in the Willamette river watershed la tributary to the Southern Pacific lines and sub ject to the rates which the complainants have attacked. The forest service has no particular interest in the parties and their complaint, but is extremely desir ous of securing for the territory Involved the same privileges with respect to rates on lumber which are accoraed the re maining territory west of the summit of the Cascade mountains. - While Oregon has more standing tim ber than any other state in the, union. It has never ranked better than fourth In the order of lumber production. Washington,'-with much less timber,' has pro duced approximately between two and three ' times - as much lumber. This marked discrepancy ft lumber produc tion is a logical result of the difference in transportation facilities and rates of the two states. It is apparent .from the above state ment of facts that the rates -which the Willamette valley mills have been com pelled by defendans to pay have retarded the development not only of privately owned timber, but also, that . belonging to the United States. HKk Timber Overripe -Much of the timber within the national forests of this valley Is mature and over ripe, and any unjust restriction in the way of rates on the . part of the transportation facilities if continued will cause great loss to that part of the government-owned timber which is mature and over ripe. In these times when Immense quanti ties of lumber are needed for a vigorous prosecution of the war it is alt the more necessary and rlfxht that any unjust or discriminatory rate on lumber, as well as other products, be removed In order that each section may do Us utmost to fur nish the government with such classes and amounts of lumber and other neces sities as may be desired in furtherance of an early and complete victory. Large timbers are particularly necessary. On account of the handicap from the rates complained of the mills of the complain ant which are of sufficient sue xor me manufacture of timbers of the size de sired are prevented from furnishing ma terial to wooden shifyaras sucn as those at Duluth, Minn., and Superior, Wis. Fatsre It Discounted It is not contended that the granting of - complainant's petition will provide a complete remedy for the originating ter ritory Involved, but taken tn conjunction with the proper readjustment of freight rates into other territories where Wil lamette valley is being discriminated against and the natural decrease of supply of timber in other sections now serving a common market, will draw to Oregon its fair share of the lumber in dustry and enable the United States and Oregon to secure an Increased in come from its timber holdings and en able that state to take its proper place as the largest lumber-producing state In the union. VOOL DEALERS TALK ABOUT GOVERNMEMT: TAKING THE BUSINESS Boston Says Trade Is "Up in the Air" Regarding Possibility' of Federal Control. PORTLAND'S GREATEST INDUSTRY IS SHIPBUILDING Is the government going to take over control of the ' wool business? This Is the question which' has perplexed 'tfe local trade, says the Boston Globe, dur ing the past 'few days, or to be exact. since a meeting of the trade to consider the report of a committee on ways and means to help the government in the matter of wool supplies, It was an nounced that the committee on wool sup ply of the National Council of Defense had resigned. Since no explanation accompanied the announcement and- there are now gov ernment regulations with regard to ex porting gold and Importers, as well as exporters, are obliged to have licenses, not to mention the fact that the gov ernment has not only -bought much wool in domestic markets, but has made the arrangements, for the big shipments to come to this country from Australia, not a tew aeaiers Deneve mat me aays of private venture In wool are numbered at least for the duration of the war. Actually the trade, is "way up In the air" on this matter srnd there is no way of telling In advance whether their worst fears wJll be fulfilled or not. The un settlement that used to prevail in the old days when there was a danger of a downward revision of the wool and woolen schedules of the tariff seems tame compared with that which exists at present. There is no question of the Inclination of the wool dealers to work with the government ; they are prepared to a man to do all within reason to help the government, even to the point of doing business at a fixed margin of profit. The great fear is that private business in wool may be suspended, as it was In England, for the duration of the war.

Exploit Casscl's Invention A company called the Electro Agri cultural Joint Stock company has been founded, having as its object the ex ploitation of HJ. Cassel's invention. Mr Cassel has, after many years of expert- mentlng, succeeded in solving the prob lem of transferring electric power to self propeleld motor plows and other farming machinery. Experiments will be made at one of the company's fac tories at Alfsjo, Sweden. Boats Could Help in Transportation The Importance of waterway and high way transportation to the Northwest is given added emphasis by an experience of Samuel HD1. November 26 a shipment of 1187 pounds of vegetables and fruit was made by rail from Mary Mil, Waah., to Seattle, and the shipment had not yet arrived at Seattle December 9. Mr. Hill makes no com plaint, saying that doubtless all the rail equipment is being used in government service, but intimated that a regularly established boat line down the Columbia river to Vancouver and a good hard sur faced road from - Vancouver to Seattle would facilitate prompt shipment. In famine times, the present situation would be extremely inconvenient, says Mr.. Hill. Two Swedish engineers have invented an electric machine for cleaning boilers that works somewhat like a drill. BRQCCQL I GROWERS SEE GOOD CHANCE TO MAKE CASH' SALES Roseburg Farmer Gets Encour aging Letter From Dealer in San Francisco. A prominent broccoli grower of Ros4 burg has received a communication from one of the largest produce firms In San Francisco, which carries in It considera ble encouragement for those growers who ""hope to establish a market for broccoli for cash f. o. b- Instead of hip ping on consignment as has been done heretofore, says the Roseburg Review. The letter from the California firm states that they will gladly send a rep resentative to Roseburg with the idea of buying the crop on a cash f. o. b. basis, provided the growers will make a price that will permit them to handle the product at a reasonable profit. The letter further states that In ease this firm should buy the broccoli, that they will send their own packing crew to do that part of the work, and thus insure a standard pack of the different grades. According to statements contained In the communication, this company had the Idea that the broccoli crop In Doug las county was a failure for this season, and surprise was expressed that this season's output would approximate 60 carloads. This letter Is the first reply that has been received In answer to a number of Inquiries sent out by the growers to as certain If cash buyers could b Inter ested In the broccoli crop of this county for this season. Others are expected, and upon their receipt a meeting of growers will tit called to put all the In formation thus obtained before the grow ers. O.-C. Land Exchange Measure Approved Washington.

Among these were emergency assistance In the protection of public works and transpor tation, lines and the gathering of mili tary reconnaissance Information valuable to the war department. Wood and other forest prodocts have almost innumerable uses in modern war fare. It is pointed out. Never before has the demand for exact knowledge been so urgent. "In the work relating to forest utilisation aad forest products, the resources of the service have been employed to the limit of their capacity sines tne war began In rendering a slstaace to the war and navy depart ments, tne emergency fleet corporation various committees of the Council of National Defense, and manufacturers of war orders.

It has included also problems connected with the construc tion of wooden ships and of vehicles. As sistance has been given to hardwood dis tillation plants In order to Increase the production of acetone and other prod ucts needed for munition making. A com mercial demonstration has shown that costs of producing ethyl alcohol from wood waste can be materially reduced. Methods have been developed by which walnut and birch can be klla-dried to a much reduced time with cote para lively little loss.

How the work of the forest service was realigned to meet war conditions Is described in the annual report of the forester, which tn the absence of the head of the service is made by Acting Foreater A. F. Potter. The report also states thati practically every form of use of the forests was greater than ever before, that the receipts again touched a new high level with a total of IMS?.' 021.41, and that the Increase tn receipts over the previous year was SCI1.4S7.70. "When the graalng charge has been advanced to cover the full valoo of the graalng privilege," says the report, "lbs Income from the national forests will be Packers to Regulate First Cost Prices la connection with the plans of the government to regulate prices of fish packers have been advised that no effort would be made to regulate prices from the selling end . exclusively, but that the plan was to ascertain ' the cost price for the raw flah as a basis for start. Selling prices per case, it shown, cannot be fixed with any degree of accuracy before the season closes. as estimates made In advance of the pack and therefore the operating costs are often subjected to radical revision. Estimates based on a large crop in the event of a small one. packers declared. are very different from what would occur if the season was a good one. An effort Is being made by the gov ernment's representative to get a list of all the Items that enter into the cost of production and canning, and. after fixing these definitely, packers will bo willing, in view of war condl tlona, to do business on the pai basis. Of great Importance to the fruft grew- era and farmers of this coast Is the en- ' couraging statement wired from Wash - Ington by. Edward Chambers, chairman of the transportation committee, giving the government's assurance that the railroads will be sbls next year to han- -die peiiahable ahtpmenta closely ap proaching the maximum. The message which was addressed to 1 John Lk Nagle. manager of the California . Fruit Exchange at Los Angeles. Is as follows : "Effective December 1. shippers of. oranges and lemons win be required by food administration regulations to load,, refrigerator car seven boxes wide and" two high the .entire Inside length of the -car. either under ventilation or rafrig- -. erator. "Shippers of vegetables and deciduous fruits are requested to advise the limit of safety to which they may Increase the carload above the minimum, so proper regulations msy also be Issued at once. It is absolutely necessary that everything reasonably poeslble be done to Increase the efficiency of refrigerator cars and the railroad power handling perishable commodities. In order that the present refrigerator car supply may handle perishable traffic for the year Just beginning. "There is little hope of the ear shops ' being able to fill railroad orders for ad ditional refrigerator cars to any extent the coming year, because of being eta ployed en priority government war or der. "Wi fully sppreciate the cooperation the shippers have already given and tn asking them to increase the effort we have in view meesnree necessary to pro vide adeqoats transportation for fruits aad vegetables during the coming year. A careful survey of the entire trans portation conditions Just made, we be lieve Justifies the conclusion that with maximum cooperation, the railroads will able to handle periahabls traffic wit hoot serious delay. "Wn have now estimated what is likely to happen la the movement of fruits and vegetables next season and while the , rallroade will have a- difficult task to perform, particularly s eastern lines. see no reason for alarm that any thing might happen to seriously inter rupt or prevent the movement of per ishable fruits and vegetables which are considered by the food administration as essential substitutes for condensed foods badly needed for export."
