SHIPS IN OTHER TRADE ROUTES TO E TO PACIFIC Northwest Ports Making Heavy Demand for Ships to Move Grain and Flour Products. COAL CARRIERS TO BE USED ?ortfand Built Ships for Govern ment Have Efeeiv Diverted to Routes Far Away From Coast. That the early ret.urn to the Pa-, cific Coast of ships now being with held in other trade rebates because of the better cargo conditions on the Atlantic coast of the United States, will result from natural changes now developing, Is the opinion of A. C. Stubbe, general manager of the Col umbia Pacific Sftip'png company of this city. , The Columbia Pacific Shipping Co.. although a new concern, has already dispatched under management for the United States, shipping board more than two score of steel and wooden ships. Some of thene ships have sailed 'from the Columbia river laden with ties arid lumber for the east coast and .Kurope. . Others have been sent to 'virays naroor, vvntm., iu tuau nee. The Pacific Steamship Co., of which Frank O'Connor is the general man ager tn Portland, is operating even a greater number of ships for the gov ernment, the Admiral line being an older and larger concern. MANY LEAVKJ SOXJJ RETURN Notwithstanding the steady line of ships which have left Portland and other Northwest ports in the past year, however, mariners have frequently re marked that none of the whips has re turned to Portland for return cargo. Explaining; this phase and telling why the tide has now turned in favor of the return of ships to the Pacific coast, Stubbe today said : ""Movement of the Brain crop and the flour products of the Pacific Northwest alone will require 15 ships at least of a total "miiage of 100,000. Max II. Jlouser. vice president of the grain cor poration of the food administration, has estimated that this immense tonnage will be needed for the.food administra tion in the handling of the new grain crop, WHIPS ORDERED TO PORTLAND "Scarcity f available steel tonnage , i . i, 7 frv I Via shipping board to order ships from San Francisco and Puget. Sound to load wheat and flour in Portland fer deliv ery to the Atlantic coast and Europe and other foneign ports, including Italy. Local tonnage was not being delivered rapidly enough to keep pace with the demands of the food administr.. lon. "When once the ships are in Atlantic waters, cargoes are more readily avail able on the Atlantic seaboard than they are pn the Pacific coast at present. Consequently, the vessels fall to return to their "starting points, but instead are diverted ta other trade routes. The time is now ripe for a reversal L A L 1 , 1 r. h nn'IH'iir of these conditions, however "Another factor which will tend to bring the ships back is the proposition of John II. Itosseter, director of the divi sion of operations of the shipping board. He plans, I understand, to use the ves sels which bring coal from the Atlantic . coast for the needs of the Pacific naval TRANSPORTATION MS EAHSIP ADMIRAL LINE. S:S. "CITY OF TOPEKA" Sails at 9 p. m.

She now is located in New York.) I don't blame a poor guy that's been working all day long for keeping his seat on the street car when a bunch of fresh young women appear on the scene and are as able as he to hang on to a strap; but it does make me 6ore when I see'men who should know better sit buried behind papers, while an. elderly woman stands and strug gles to keep from falling. That's going too far. Whether she works for a liv ingand whether that work is scrubbing office floors) she is entitled to consideration; In the first place, there is fieet aa wheat and flour carriers on the return voyages. MUCH COAL REQUIRED "An immense quantity of coal will be required to supply the needs of the fleet, and the plan to utilize the coal carriers in transporting grain and flour back to various destinations is entirely practical." One of the latest instances of a Portland-built ship being retained on the Atlantic coast after delivering cargo loaded in Portland is the 8800-ton steamer West Hargravp. The vessel delivered flour to New York, then took on general freight for Rotterdam. On her return to New York the steamer was taken out of the hands of the Co lumbia "aclfic Shipping Co. of Port land, her original operators for the shipping board, and turned over to Barber A Co. of the east coast. DIVERTED TO OTHER ROUTES Uecords snow that wooden steamers . . , . , . built in Portland ior ins government have been diverted to other trade routes which do not require their return to Portland. In some cases the wooden steamers have been sold and the ves sels turned over to their new owners after their arrival on the Atlantic coast. All of the 3800-ton steel ships built by the Albina Engine & Machine Works of Portland have been put into service, most of the 17 ships built now being engaged in the Pacific trade for the Matson Navigation Co. or the racmc Mail, as pperators, and these ships are not being returned to Portland. Pacific coast-built ships which are scheduled to return to Portland for re turn cargoes, however, are the vessels of the Williams, Dimond & Co. line, which maintains direct sailings from this city to Europe, and the ships of the Pacific Steamship Co., operating on a regular run between Portland and the Orient. CANNERY SHIP LEVI BURGESS HAS ARRIVED AT ASTORIA Portland's first cannery ship, the Levi Burgess, owned by the Alaska-Portland. Packers' association, has arrived at As toria, her managers confirming- the re port that the total pack is 25 per cent of the normal. The cannery operators are unable to explain the shortage in the pack from the Nushagak river, Alaska, where the canneries are located. The Burgess left the northern port Aujrugt 12, the dis tance of 2200 miles being covered in 18 days. The company's tug Akutan reached Astoria in advance of the sailer. The Berlin, the sister ship to theN Burgess, Is nearing the Columbia river now. Lumber Rales Increase Incr.se in lumber freight rates ap plying to Pacific Coast ports have in creased 50 cents a thousand, according to Information received today by the Merchants' E5ccharrr. The rate on lum ber from the Columbia river, Willapa Harbor and Grays Harbor to San Fran cisco has been boosted from to $8.50, the same rate applying from Puget Sound. From the Columbia river, Willapa Harbor and Grays Harbor, to Valpa raiso the rate is $37.50, whereas former ly it was $35 to $37.50. Passenger Boat on Coos Marshfield, Sept. 2. At the Frank Lowe ihipyard in Marshfield a new river beat is being built for the Coos River Transportation company. It is 50 feet long and is especially designed aa a fast passenger carrier. The boat when com pleted will have cost $7000. As a new summer resort hotel ia being completed on Coo river, it is expected that the passenger travel will be greatly in creased and the new boat is being built to meet this' demand.

The least we can do to ease that condition is to see that she has a seat on the car even, if a GIRL, has to get up and give it to her. If instead of the drab clothes of a working woman, she ap pears in the lace and lavender her years should claim, she would be hailed from every side as a venerable matron, and they would all hop up to make way for somebody's "mother."

Sometimes my blood boils when I see men who will not even move over a bit to make room for such a one. A free country to be sure but a considerate one, I hope. The other day on the car three returned soldiers gave their seats to women, and yet of all the men these women would rather have seen- them keep their seats. America has been noted for its consideration of its women I wonder! E IS OF DID DUTY Olcott Replies to Letter Froml Colonel John Leader of I National Guard. Salem. .Sept. 2. "As a member my self of the Home Guards, it would hardly be becoming for me to utter many ex tensive eulogies of them. I might say, however, thiit I am certain that theee men, who because of advanced age or for other reasons were unable to ef fectively participate against the enemy abroad, were actuated by the highest of patriotic motives when they devoted their time and energy in preparing for any defense against any contingency which mightarise at home." Thus doe9tovernor Olcott acknowl edge the letter recently received from Colonel John Leader of Eugene, an hon orary colonel of the Oregon National Guard, who credits the Home Guard or ganization with having prevented an invasion of Oregon by a Germanized Mexican army last July.

GOV RNOR CLAIMS HI GUARDS BIGMLPIP FOR PACIFIC COAST Development of Submarine and Aviation Bases at Harbors Under Consideration, By M. D. T. Tracy San Francisco, Sept. 2. (IT. P.) The Pacific Coast may prepare for an unprecedented program of naval development as a result of the organ ization of the Pacific fleet. Secretary Daniels, on his present trip. Is gathering data on, which he will base recommendations to congress which will embody a program involving the Im mediate expenditure of millions of dol lars. In this he is being assisted by xlear Admirals Parks, McKean and Mc Oormick and Cummanrler rlilton of the bureau of supplies and accounts. secueTarvs kecoaimexdations By September 24 the secretary will srive to congress - his recommendations fen- the first work to be done. It is, ap parently, quite certain this report will cover all or part of each of the follow ing items : Establishment of a naval training station at San ISego. Construction of a new naval hospital at Balboa Park, San Diego. Probable continuance of the San Pedro submarine base, established dur ing the war. Kxteusive additions to the Pearl Har bor, T. H., navy base, including addi tions to the present shop facilities and hospitals. Recommendations as to the establish ment 6"f the new naval base and navy yard at San Francisco. SUBMARINE BASE OS COLUMBIA Kstablishment of an avtlon station and submarine base on the Columbia river, probably in the vicinity of Astoria. Extensive improvements to naval fa cilities on Puget Sound, particularly at Bremerton. All of this work will be based largely on the report of the so-called Ilelm board, which investigated and reported on in detaii the naval needs of the Pa cific coast jugt prior to the war. Of the program now taking shape, the largest single item is the naval station at San Francisco. Which of four sites will be selected will be determined largely from the personal investigation being made by Secretary Daniels and staff. The same plan of personal investiga tion will be followed on Puget sound and the Columbia river. Will Visil Virloriu Washington. Sept. 2. (IT. P.) Sec retary Daniels will visit Victoria. B. C, September 11, the navy department an nounced today. He will be accompanied by Admiral Hodman of the Pacific fleet, traveling on the battleship New York with an escort of destroyers. PROPOSED IN BILL (Continued From Page One) sentation on the boards of directors of the various tailroad Corporations and establishes an employes' welfare fund for the excess earning which it is believed some or the railroads will derive from the rates to be established under the bill." The proposed employes' fund Is to be expended by a railroad transr artation board created by the bill, "upon the recommendation of an advisory com mittee representing the railroad broth erhoods, and ia designed to promote hospital relief, improve conditons of la bor) lessen the hazards of employment, supplement . existing systems of insur ance and pensions, afford opportunities for the technical education of employes and to establish a system of profit sharing for them," Robinson added. "There is no pijrpose to oppress or permit the oppression of railroads," he continued. "On the contrary, the bill is intended to secure them their Just rights. Having done this, it cannot be considered unfair to protect the public against the dangers of strikes and lockouts." COXTROL BOARD PROPOSED The policy of the United States Is de clared, according to Chairman Cummins' exhaustive analysis of the bill, to be that the railroads "shall be divided in owner ship and operation into not less than 20. nor more than 35 separate and distinct ive systems, each of these systems to be owned and operated by a distinct corporation, organized or reorganized," under this bill. Tha railroad transportation board is to consist of five members appointed by the president, with the advice and con sent of the senate, at $ 12,000 a year each. No member of the board can hold any office or employment under any railroad corporation, or be pecuniarily Interested in the stocks or bonds of any such corporation. I Many of the functions of the interstate commerce commission are transfeerred to this board, which is clothed with many and most important powers, in addition to making the plan of consoli dation of all the railroads of the country Into not less than 20 or more than 35 systems, Cummins declared. "Advances made by the government to the railroads and properly chargeable to capif I account areto be evidenced by bonds or other securities payable in five years, with interest at 5 per cent per annum ; other indebtedness to be evidenced by demand notes, with interest at 6 per cent per annum," Cummins continued. BATE DISTRICTS PROPOSED Upon the passage of the bill, the in terstate commerce commission is "to divide the country into rate districts and the carriers Into rate groups, for rate making purposes ; and hearings are pro vided for with respect to the adequacy of rates for revenue purposes, consider ing the rate districts or the rate group as whole ; this Is to be' tried separate and apart from the question of reasonableness of rates upon particular commodities, or the particular com munities." Under the bill "new schedules of rates which are filed within 30 days after federal control ceases become effective at the end of four months after they are filed, with such changes as the commis sion may, In the meantime, order ; and until the expiration of the four months period. This action const Hot es a guaranty to the railroads which have entered into contracts respecting com pensation under the act of March 21, 191S, of a proportionate amount of the contract compensation, and with respect to the railroads with which no contract have been made, it constitutes a guaranty of a proportionate railroad operatln- income." Laundry owners of San Diego have announced new prices for laundry work showing an advance of 20 to 25 per cent. SHARE PROFITS Brominent Pioneer Oregon Attorney Is Dead in San Diego Kugene, Sept. 2.

(I. N. B.) A sensation has been caused here by a letter from Baron Fisher to the Times today, urging drastic economy In naval affairs and declaring that "half of the 'navy should be cast upon the scrap heap and that the other half would be useless within a few years, because of the develop ment of the internal combustion en gine and oil fuel." All of the evening newspapers make a grreat play up on the letter. Baron Fisher, who was former first Bea lord of the admiralty and a high authority on naval affairs, said that about one lialf of the navy is now obsolete owing to tl.e Kreater speed of modern men-of-war and the use of 20 inch guns. The writer argues tttat the disap pearance of the German navy is one reason foi- the abolition of spendthrift methods. It was Baron Fisher, who.

Virtual packer control of five livestock markets is responsible for heavy losses to pro ducers during the last 10 days, Senator Capper, Kansas, said today. The recent market break was cited by Capper as a reason why legislation along the lines proposed In the Kenyon and Kendrlck bills should be. enacted by congress. I Capper's statement comes on the iSeel3 of a similar one from the National Con sumers' league. "While there is probably no proof that the big packers actually controlled the situation. I cannot but believe that they havebeen a factor." Capper said. British Miners Refuse Government's Offer London. Sept. 2. 1 1.
