MENACED BY FLOOD 100 PER CENT FEDERAL AID PORTS' PLEA Matched Fund Policy Forced Upon Northwest Branded as Vicious by Speakers at Harbors Qongress; Budget Advocated. Branding &a vicious the federal system which demands matched funds frorn Pacific poets to carry on rivers and harbors improvement work, delegates at. the Northwest Rivers and Harbors congress session this morning in the Multnomah ho tel voiced the opinion that Oregon and Washington should stand sol idly for 100 per cent government appropriations in the future.' Discussion at the morning session centered on the aggravating condition now confronting states of the North west. Delegates called attention to the fact that ports of the Atlantic and gulf now obtain 100 per cent appropriations, but ports of the Pacific have to bond them selves heavier with each Improvement because the government refuses to ap propriate any moneys without assur ance of assistance. TO REMOTE EVIL The delegates were unanimous in the opinion that definite action should be obtained to overcome this alleged evil. The session this morning came upon the second and final day of the congress. Delegates continued to register in large numbers this morning wtth the re sult that 150 had affixed their names to the attendance roster at noon. The plea for formulation of a definite demand for full consideration from the government in the matter of port and river development funds waa first insti tuted by Hugh McLain of Marshfield. McLaln discussed the attitude toward western harbor development at Wash ington, D. C. and during the course of his remarks' said : "Washington has the attitude that It desirea to do the greatest amount of good for the greatest number of people.

BANK OF IRELAND IS LOOTED BY BANDITS I will II 11 IU FREED FROM SOUND'S GRIP Plea for Separation From Seattle Shipping Board District and Transfer to San Francisco Granted After Long. Fight. Portland's shipping board busi ness is to come under the Jurisdic tion of the San Francisco rather than the Seattle district, according to Information transmitted by Sen ator C. L. McNary to the Chamber of Commerce today, on advices from Admiral Benson: Thus Portland wins a long fight for th preservation of its prestige in the maritime world after -negotiations that have been going on for months. Admiral Benson announced to Senator McNary that the new rule transferring Portland from the Puget Sound district would be made effective aa soon aa de tails can be worked out "This is exactly what Portland asked for, and all we have desired. There fore, of course, so far as the Chamber of Commerce is concerned, we are per fectly satisfied." Such Is the reception news of Port land's association with the San Fran cisco shipping board district won in the office of H. B. VanDuser, president of the chamber, this morning. "Our problem waa to Win a complete divorce from Seattle and attachment to San Francisco. We have never asked for more than that" FRIOB, STATUS RESTORED The order including Portland in the San Francisco shipping board district in reality reestablishes the status ex isting prior to the order creating 'a Pa cific Northwest shipping board district, of which Seattle waa designated aa head quarters. As soon as it was known that Admiral Benson had included Portland in the district with this city's most vindictive rival, a strong protest burned on the wires to Washington and to Admiral Benson as chairman of the shipping board. All local commercial shipping and business Interests were represented in the persistent campaign organised and wag-ad under the direction of the Port land Chamber of Commerce. The victory la one of the most dis tinctively important gained . by the chamber for the Portland community. An alternative to re-lhelosion In the San Francisco district waa the creation of a Columbia river district of which Port land would be headquarters. XXABT WIRES MWS The telegram from McNary announc ing the new order of things, follows: . "Have just received following tele gram from Admiral Benson.- I expected this result and am very much pleased. " 'Senator Chaa. Lu McNary, Salem. Or,- Replying to your telegram of Sep tember 30. In view of statements con tained therein and the many similar re quests, I believe it will be to the best In terests of all concerned to transfer Port land to the San Francisco district and orders to this effect will be given as soon aa details can be gone Into.' - 'BENSON.' " TAXES POURING III TO DODGE PENALTY One per cent penalty will attach to all unpaid second installment taxea in Multnomah county after 9 o'clock tonight. A flat penalty of 5 per cent will attach to all unpaid taxes on November S. The greatest rush of taxpayers In local history wss witnessed at the court house Monday and today. All of Mon day, people, were in line before the caaMera' windows, and at times the lines extended entirely through the first floor north corridor. Similar scenes were re peated today. It is estimated that more than 11.000. 000 was received at the tax collection department in cah and checks Monday and the expectation la that this amount will be exceeded by today's paymenta. At the opening of the office for busi ness Monday morning there were un collected taxea to the amount of 15,071, T32.S0 on the roll out of the total assess ment of $12,007,732.40. Unless there is an abnormal receipt of tax payments through the malls, it appears there will be a heavy delinquency list that will hsvl to bear the 1 per cent penalty. The recent rearrangement of the sher iff a department, riving; more room to the tax department, waa found of great service to the public during the final rush. Four windows were open for the receipt of tribute and seven cashiers were on duty Instead of four, the num ber heretofore used. The department win be kept open un til 9 o'clock tonight, and all tax pay ments that are mailed so aa to show today's dates on the envelopes win cover the fuU payment, avoiding Imposition of the penalty.
