P. Camplaint Is That Prices Set Are Too Low to Admit of a . Profit. Officials of the Willamette Valley Tie and Lumber association declare that only about one fourth of the Southern Pacific order for 450.000 ties for ship ment to Atlantic coast roads has been placed with mills of Western Oregon, though a determined effort Is btpg made by the purchasing agent of the Southern Pacific to place thev entire order in this territory. The majority of the operators of the f0 tie mills of the Willamette valley assert that crossties cannot be produced at a profit under specifications of the railroad administration. This price. 321 prr 1000 feet, is considerably in advance of pre-war prices for ties', but will not take care of the increased cost of labor and the waste In side cut made neces sary in meeting the specifications of the administration officials. ADMINI8TBATIOX WOULD HELP It would appear that the railroad ad ministration officials are attempting to assist the west coast lumber producers by showing Eastern buyers that they can get heart sawn ties of the quality and dimensions they demand in this ter ritory. The Eastern roads require ties 7x8 and 7x9 by feet 6 inches in length and, according to local mill men, the Eastern buyers think they are doing a favor to Oregon lumber mills in placing orders here. Ties of this length can be cut to ad vantage from 17, 26, 34 or 42 foot logs. Very few of the mill operators in Ore gon cit "from hand to mouth" and logs now bucked up are 16, 24, 32 and 40 feet in length. Orders now placed call for delivery June 15, and their accept ance will result In constidrable wastage to the mills, except those which log the entire tree and buck It up In the pond. ADVANCE PKICES EXPECTED The lumber business is rapidly in creasing in volume and an advance from the present price, which Is based on discount sheet No. 3 and Is from $1 so $2 higher than in April, is looked for in the near future. The majority of the mills are working to capacity and orders exceed the output by a considerable ir.argtn. - Orders for cross ties, other than those of the railroad administration, the an tlclpated from interurban electric lines In the middle western territory and this business is expected to stabilize the market and give work for the Willamette valley mills.
