To a former Portland nan bt
longs credit .for having performed
one a of ' the wonderful feats of the
world war. 'Ninety-eight thousand
. American soldiers were transported
safety to- France, and half of them
returned home again on the steamer
Leviathan (formerly thVaterland),
of which Captain John H. Blackburn
was commanding of fleer. ...
; Captain Blackburn is spending a few
days In Portland -visiting Lieutenant
Commander Frederick K. Elder, at the
local navy recruiting r office. He mo-
tored here from San Francisco with his
-wife. Before the war Blackburn was in

TEE DITTO BIO JOB
. The mere loading and unloading .of
the soldiers on the Leviathan was hut a
small matter. The biff Job was to see
that all were 'properly, fed and , kept
nappy. On each trip across the Atlan
tic this gigantic steamer carried 11,000
soldiers. 2200 sailors and 74 officer.

when this -vast army had to be .ted.
Commander macaoum arranged a
schedule after a few days' practice.
whereby he wss abls to feed these men
In 70 minutes. All the provisions needed
for the round trip had to be taken from
the American side, as Europe had no
food to spare for returning vessels, i It
required seven days and nights o load
each trip. The fresh water was used for
cooking and drinking only. ;
HA5DLED PAT IKTELOPES
, Transportation of the soldiers was not
. the only responsibility given to super
tntendent Blackburn. On -r ever trip
across Unfile Sara gave him the pay en
velopes for the American soldiers in
France. Thousands upon thousands of
dollars were taken to Francs on the
leviainan. : Any spare room ieri on uie
vessel after the men and bag-gage were
loaded, was filled with food for France.
About 100, airplanes were also carried
. over on the Leviathan. '
To give an Idea, of the amount of
" cooking which i was dona on board
Blackburn said one of the matters of
daily rountine In the kitchen was the
baking of 7000 loaves of bread and 3000
pies. , .

(Confined From Pace Omr)
tot- Eastern Oregon the rural population
decreased heavily. . .
. Of the 524,997 people in Oregon out
side of Portland, Bennett estimated
roughly that 50 per cent could be classed
as rural J population. This estimate
would leave approximately 260,000 in
the rural sections or the equivalent of
the population : of Portland scattered
over a territory comparing In area with
the total area of New York, Pennsyl
vania and New Jersey. ;k ,
There are 61,188,480 acres in Oregon
or 95,607 seuare miles independent of
the water area.: This would mean that
less than six people to the square mile
live In the state outside of Portland and
when this is reckoned from the rural
population., alone, it would mean less
than three people to the square' mile.
Although Charles Hall, I president of
the Oregon State Chamber Of Commerce,
had estimated that the population of the
state would be about 900,000. he ex
pressed the opinion that Che state had
made a good showing In I view of the
Increase of 110,000. '.
"From 1910 to 1915 Oregon was given
a black eye by land frauds and from
1915 to 1920. the world war had the ef
fect : of drawing thousands of people
back to the East to pursue industrial
work, said Hall. "But now the west
ward movement is on again and Oregon
has the best chance of any state in the
West to make a remarkable growth dur
ing the next 10 years." j ; , i
In spite of his evident satisfaction
with the growth Indicated, Hall ex
pressed - the opinion that: the figures
were 10, per cent under what they
