loaded to capacity since the railroad
administration released its conirol. in
a letter sent out by Regional AWrector
R. H. Alshton. He declare that, dur
ing the last month, a saving of 20 per

loaded to maximum. j ,
Mr. .Alshton says that the mlilera are
not averse to heavy loading , but are
governed by the consignees orders " and
the resultis' that onJy. S per cent of
the capacity of the railroad equipment
has been utilised-of late. "Had -cars
been loaded- in March, 1919." says Mr.
Alshton, "on the same basis as De

TRADE LETTER FROM -ENEMY
COUNTRY, FIRST.
!E 1914. ARRIVES
.. .. : -
Trieste rFirm Wants to i Buy Raw
Materials for Jugo-Slavia, r
Austria and .Hungary, j
CommunlcaUon for the first tin sine
1914 from commercial i interests In any
of the central warring powers of Eu
rope has been received by the foreign
trade bureau of the Portland Chamber
of Commerce in a letter from a firm tn
Trieste, asking for a. supply; of raw ma
terials..' ' "1 '
Interesting " features are contained In
the letter as the Hungarian firm speaks
of "the ccessful termination of the
war" and the difficulty of now obtain
ing raw materials from the "hitherto
powerful competitors, Germany and Aus
tria." Another interesting note is rung
when he speaks of his Flume branch in
Jugo-Slavia. The letter follows :
."The successful termination of the
war has awakened In our countries the
Interest for trade relations with the al
lies. OwlngJ to the difficulty of ob
taining raw materials from hitherto
powerful competitors (Germany and
Austria), whoWlll hardly be able to
hold their own markets, our population
shows more desire for American goods.
"My Trieste house transacts mainly
insurance of shipping, shipbuilding and
all supplies adherent to the operation of
steamers." such as coal, oils and lubri
cators, paints and ropes. My ; Flume
branch, being at the sea outlet of Jugo
slavia, Austria and Hungary, under
takes beside the articles already jiamed
taS handle metals, machines and tools,
dhemicals. ores and phosphates, pro
duce and canned preserves.
"1 shall be thankful if you will be
good enough to announce my enquiry
in your communications o the commer
cial world and if. you will kindly give
me names of firms ready to serve my
enquiry or to whom I may be able to
apply direct."
The letter is' signed by a well known
Hungarian ship broker who was en
gaged In world trade before the waf
broke in 1914. The Chamber of Com
merce is desirous of having merchants
communicate with them before taking
any action on this message.
GERMANS WILL
IS
(Continued From Face One)
President Wilson heard a lepgthy "re
port from Ambassador Thomas- Nelson
Page, who recently arrived from Rome
and called at the White House this aft
ernoon. There were informal confer
ences between other members of the
American delegation and Italian repre
sentatives. The Austrian peace delegation is
scheduled to arrive at St. Germain to
night and from indications will assume
a passive attitude when the terms are
presented. - - '
Signor ' Crespl of the Italian delega
tion is quoted as saying that, aside from
her territorial demands, Italy will ex
pect all peoples who were members of
the dual monarchy in 1914 to contribute
to the indemnity Austria-Hungary must
pay.
MOKE OUTLETS WASTED
: The Serbians (now part of Jugo
slavia) are demanding complete repara
tion, in addition to Bosnia and Harxe
govina. Jugo-Slavia is ready, however,
to accord the Austrians and Magyars
access to the Adriatic through Dmowiki.
Poland is claiming the eastern part
of Galicia and an outlet to the Black
sea by way of Kramarez.
In addiUon to their claim for the
Teschem Basin, the Czecho-Slovaks want
a sea. outlet to the Baltic. The Czecho
slovaks furthermore are seeking the in
ternationalization of the Elbe river,
facilities to use the Hamburg and Stettin
harbors and also an outlet to the
Adriatic via Pressburg and Jugo-Slav
territory. -OFFER

BUSS BEDS APPEAR
4Agent--of the- Russian Bolshevik
regime are In Paris and are making one
final, desperate effort to secure' recog
nition of the.Lenln-TTotstky combina-.
Uon at Moscow. Most of these agents
are posing in the guise of writers. They
are taking the fullest advantage of the
German suggestion that if the Teutonic
envoys fall to sign, Germany may make
an alliance with the Bolshevists.
As a matter of fact such an alliance
is welcomed in some quarters, the argu
ment being that Bolshevism in both
Russia and Germany could be wiped
out at the same time.
SIGN AND REVISE LATER,
. IS ADVICE OF LABORITES
Paris, May 1J. (U. P.) The opinion
is growing among British laborites and
the French Social lata that Germany's
wisest course is to sign the peace eraty;
according to information from various
sources. They believe it is only a mat

is a labor government In Great Britain

when it would be possible to obtain re
vision of the treaty along more liberal
terms.
Don't Sign, Will Be Order

correspondent of the National Zeitung

German government will order its dele
