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

Local tonnage was not being delivered
rapidly enough to keep pace with the

"When once the ships are in Atlantic
waters, cargoes are more readily avail

Consequently, the vessels fall to return

"Another factor which will tend to

FAY KING, WIELDS HAMMER ON SEAT
HOGS IN STREET CARS
M r
By Fay King
(Miss Kins in a'l'ortland airl whose first news
paper work was published in The Journal sev
eral yean ago. 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.

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

patriotic motives when they devoted
their time and energy in preparing for

Development of Submarine and

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.

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.

London, Sept. 2. (I. N. B.) A

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

All of the evening newspapers make a

Packer Control Is
Cause of Loss to
Producers, He Says
Washington, Sept 2. (U. P.) 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. N. a) The ex
ecutive committee of the Federation of
Miners today decided to recommend to
the delegates to the labor conference to
morrow that they reject the govern
ment's proposals for the settlement of
troubles in the coal fields. The miners
will appeal to the trades union congress
to declare what action shall be neces
sary to secure nationalization of the
coal mines.
