ACTIOW IS URGENT ' " 1
"Drastic action must be taken to im
prove our harbors and increase our
shipptffr facilities if the Northwest ex
pects to Iceep pace with other sections
of . the United States." was the mes
sage sent to the members of the board
by Hodson.i - who represents Oreron at
the 1 National : Rivers and Harbors con
gress. . . . J t : -
Directors voiced . the opinion .; that
every man of 'influence in the North
west believes that the time is ripe for
doing something ; ; that only ; full co
operation of those interested can ob
tain the desired results, and that, while
this! meeting will ; be primarily of ;ln-
terest to tne snipper, 11 snouia aemana
the attention of every resident of the
Northwest, 'who In the 'end has to pay
the 1 transportation bins.. 1
"The Pacific Coast must realize that
this is the best time to be alive to, the
possibilities of foreign trade and the
needs of shippers," said President.: Hall

vention. i :
PROBLEMS ARE ACUTE j-
shipping problems of the Northwest
are becoming acute and demand the Be
stows attention 01 manufacturers, mer
chants and farmers,, and, in fact, all
who; avail themselves ofl, shipping fa
cilities. High freight rates in the past
have worked seriously against the Ship
per,) and iwtth, new freight rate in
creases becoming effective this month
the j whole matter is presenting a prob
lem lithe serlobsness of which can only
be contemplated.
Railroads are ; handicapped on ac
count of lack of equipment, and. while
striving to give service, are unable to
handle the situation . either in trans
portation of products or in the 1 pro
vision of! a. rate' satisfactory to the
Northwest shipping public. r
If there w as ever a time In the
history of the Northwest : when busi
ness! men ishould be alive to the I need
of developing - maritime shipping 1 and
to cooperate on a program or sucn ce-
velopsnentj - It is now. Relief can j be
obtained through development of steam-
shin! lines and harbor facilities which
will, fhandle . the shipping of this sec
tion ! of the country. .
Iuture prosperity of the Northwest
demands action. , The lumber industry
Is dependent upon the-ability of manu
facturers to make prompt shipments to
the 11 Eastern ; market -and other . trade
centers: The lumber business has de
veloped enormously and will develop by
other leaps arid bounds if adequate
shipping i facilities are provided, . ;
Farmers must have better trans
portation t facilities, for the marketing
of their grain,' livestock .and other pro
duce. The very life ; of our industries
depends to a great extent on the; abil
ity to secure the cheapest rates j com
bined with prompt service for the ship
ment of raw products from the East
and! for- the distribution of the manu
factured artlciea ? - , .
The call for this convention ..is being
sent to various organisations and in
dividuals and an invitation Is being ex
tended to-them to be present and take
part in the deliberationa
on Ibis gun." The atmosphere was very
tense for a moment Nobody spoke. Then
General j Martinez tactfully changed the
subject and the crisis passed.- J i
Villa moved freely around the town,
cheered' at every turn, but it was noticed
that ;he always had a body guard of
five heavily armed men at his heels.
His , troopers .looked f lerc"e and wild.
They were typical ot the reckless band
that made Villa's name a terror through
out then north and which even eluded
Pershing's expedition. Some were iongJ
ana lean wttn nig mustaches, dressed in
the fashion of Texas -cowmen1 with
"chaps" and Stetsons. Others were more
3hsractristically Mexican, attired" In
tight fitting leather trousers, braided
jackets and enormous hats. ; But lif j
aere all extremely businesslike, carrying
-ifles and revolvers and apparently op
the alert for treachery.. : .;-.' . i ? '

The gathering was at the. Instance of

is about three fourths of a mile and
that If the state highway commission
would ask for bids, he would person

when Newiands reiterated that he would
underbid the asphalt people and added
that the highway commission was In er1

pave the short strip separately from the
entire distance to Oregon City.
