THE .OREGON-.DAILY: JOURNAL', PORT LAND, WEDNESDAY, : JANUARY &I5,V 1919:
SHIPPERS ASKED TO
CONTINUE MINIMUM
- CAR LOADING RULES
Benefits of War, Time Regulation
Is Seen and Extension to
. Permanent Use Urged.
'Coincident with the withdrawal of
food administration regulations govern-
in gr minimum carload for licensed com
' modities, local officials of the United
State railroad admftiistratlon are send
tnff broadcast to shippers an appeal to
fountarlly maintain loading: practices
established during the war.
The policy of the railroad adtninistra
i Uon. in regard to car loading is set forth
as follows by W. C. Kendall, manager
, car service section:
; -. "The heavier loading: of freight cars,
til campaign for which has had the
. ; valued aid and support of the several de
partments of the government, as well as
the hearty cooperation of shippers, has
been a very material factor in accom
plishing the follow ing :
,"1. An Increased car supply.
."2. Lessened congestion of railroads,
particularly at terminal points.
3. Improved service made possible
i " by '-lessened congestion.
Taking full advantage of car carry
; lng capacity means more than the mere
' ' conservation of equipment. It not only
saves equipment for freight which could
not otherwise move promptly, but also
minimizes congestion and makes pos
' slble greatly Improved service.
'-'" "If.it be thought that the improved
car supply, which exists at the, present
. time makes it less necessary to load cars
to full capacity It should be borne In
.', " mind that a return tovthe old practice
V, of light loading would speedily bring
, about another car shortage and cones-
tlon, by reason of the Increased number
of cars required to carry aj given ton-r-.-
nage. Numerous shippers have volun-
i teered the information that it is their
- i purpose to make the fullest use of equlp-"-
ment maintaining the record established
during the war, regardless of tariff
- minimums. .They apparently realize the
V advantage gained, which prevents useless
ast and a retrn to transportation
rtltions which formerly prevailed.
, ,drailroad administration will con-
ts efforts to closely supervise the
- of all commodities, in order that
yjemands for service may be promptly
J met and we ask the continued coopera
Uon of all shippers to that end. Re
ports of all instances of light loading
'. will be made to the car service Bectlon
; : as heretofore."

INFLUENZA AGAIN
Physicians and druggists claim that

now than ever before. The first sneese

Moy Blck Hin, Chinese consul for
Oregon, denies reports presented at the
recent convention of the State Federa
tion of Labor to the effect that Chi
nese restaurants and cafes of this city
are employihg white girls for the pur
pose of overcoming the 'prejudice
against orientals.
Such statements as these say Mr.
Hin, "can have no other effect than to
engender race prejudice which does
not now exist, and at the same time
inflicts upon all law abiding orientals
in this state engaged in like business.
a great wrong." .
M. D. Goon, chairman of Portland
Chinese Restaurants and Cafes asso
ciation, brands the statement as "ma
licious, false and not founded -on one
lota of truth."
"The statement .that a virtual white
'slave traffic among the girls was be
ing managed and abetted by the ori
ental proprietors,' is false in toto a
fabrication which has its origin in a
biased and malicious mind," declares
Mr. Goon.
The girls employed by the oriental
cafes in this city receive the same
treatment as those employed by white
owners, claims Mr. Goon. "They are
treated well, are well paid, cared and
provided for.
"We court the fullest investigation
by the Girls' Welfare League or other
leagues of this city or state," said Mr.
Goon.
"If such charges . had any truth la
them I would upon my own initiative
present the question to the grand Jury
for an investigation," said Mr. Hin
