THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, - PORT LAND. . WEDNESDAY. JANUARY ; 23; -1920. 8 t r PROPOSED HGHER LUMBER RATE TO ORIENT HELD UP department come under one of the four bead of the -nipping: board- The other three divisions, are the operating, con struction, and finance departments. - Yoakum said that Harry J- Weins was selected by the shipping board as the manager of the sales division to supersede O. H. 8. Pollason. Weinawtll have offices in Philadelphia, although it is the intention to remove the' headquar ters of the Fleet corporation from Phila delphia to -Washington early In April. "Sales are progressing nicely on all shipping board material," said Yoakum, "and already property valued at $25, 000,000 has been disposed of." ..---- irtlrnm that Prntptte. Prnmnt Shinmnp Hoard imnortant sales of . . r - rr - o "::-... to Gather Data Before Finally Deciding Important Question. Heeding the protest of commercial organizations and lumber Intereeta on the Pacific coast against the proponed increase in rates of lumber transported from the Pacific North west to Japan and China on gov ernment vessels, the shipping board is collecting data on the subject and expects to render a final decision this- week, according to advice re ceived by the Chamber of Commerce from Senator Charles L. McNary. The further increase proposed by the shipping board is $5 per thousand, thus making the rate from Portland to the nearest Oriental port 40. Shipping board officials claimed justification for this increase in rates because private shippers were charging from $37.50 to S40 per thousand. "Exactly contrary to the methods of the shipping board In placing favorable rates on other goods to encourage ship ping, is the tack taken by the board on lumber movement," says W. D. B. Dod- son. scretany of the chamber. ' "Lumber was orlginally..jlaced far - down on the list of commodities that would be hauled on shipping board ves . sels. At timed ft has appeared that, the board, controlled by heavy Eastern in terests, has been trying to repress the lumber trade. "Because the board moved a major portion of the ships to the Atlantic coast, there has been a shortage of ton nage and this is the reason that the board is makingPaclflc shippers suffer. The shipping board was responsible for taking ships necessary to the Pacific trade- to the Atlantic and should not make lumbermen on the coast suffer for their mistakes." SHIP BOARD MAKES CHANGE I Sales and Supply Divisions Are Made ' Distinct Departments. : Decentralisation of the supply and 1- sales division of the United .States ship ping board, giving greater authority and -i; a larger field of duty to district man I; agers of the sales division, was one of the results of the conference of shipping board officials in Philadelphia recently. 5 according to C O. Yoakum, general manager of the western division of supplies and sales, who has returned to -v! Portland. ; "The decision was "made at the confer- ence," said Toakum, "to place the sup ' ply and sales department under a sepa rate division. This action makes property pending on the Pacific coast, but details have not been arranged so that an announcement can be made. On his return trip Yoakum stopped at San Francisco for a conference wun snip ping board officials in that city and In a few days will go to Puget Sound for a similar conference. ' STEAMER TO LOAD TIES The shipping board steamer Marsh field, built on Coos Bay and equipped at San Francisco, arrived at Municipal ,w.ir Kn. 1 Tuesday night and will likely begin loading ties in the Portland har bor today, moving down to St. Helens early next week to complete her cargo. The Marshfield is operating in the serv ice of the Pacific Steamship company and will proceed to the United Kingdom. The steamer Corone, which has been or drydock, has been taken to the Pen insula yards, but will likely be placed in the Columbia-Pacific service soon, to handle a similar cargo. The Clackamas is also ready for service and a tie cargo will likely be placed on her by the Columbia-Pacific.
