The flour situation today Is very er
ratic in the local trade hut general prices
are unchanged. . Occasional . shading of
values en both patent and bakers' la re
ported but card prices are : unchanged
generally. . - ",,
One of the queer twist of the situation 1
that Portland continues to sell and ship floor to
Braail and other South American countries, ia
competition with Argentina milleia. The trad i
not expected to ba very extensive and there haa
for many years been a fair volume of business
passing between the Atlantic coast and Braail.
Thi business waa than unavailable to the Pa
eific coast because f the long Journey "around
the horn." but since the completion of the Pan
am canal, Portland and other Northwest miller
have participated in the trade.
Braail want a fair volum of soft wheat
flour and whether this amine can be increased
depends upon how the &outli American like the
taste, of our product. Tbe Argentine floor i
somewhat harder. "

W. O. Hudson, president of the
dock commission of New Orleans,
haa filed a wire , to the dock com
mission of Portland s relative v to
the operation of vessels . and
port terminal facilities. Hudson de
sires the cooperation! of the Port of
Portland In 1 securing " the appoint
ment of Rene F. Clerc to the ship
ping board from the Southern dis
trict. .- y ; '
The wire from Hudson fellow and
the dock commission referred the mat
ter . to Engineer Hegardt. The text of
the message from New Orleans follows:
"We have wired President Harding
aa follows: The efficient and econom
ical operation of ships largely depend
on proper port facilities and operation,
and we deem it just as essential to have
aa a member -on the "shipping board one
who is as familiar with port operations
aa one familiar with steamship opera
tion, 'i ; ". r.
"If member of the shipping board
is to be selected from New Orleans, we
take the liberty of Indorsing Rene F.
Clerc, former president of the New Or
leana board of : trade and at present
secretary and a member of the commis
sion. Mr. Clerc has not only had ex
perience ia matters of commerce, but
ia experienced in port conditions ana
operations, having in his capacity as a
commissioner of this port made a study
of port matters not only in this port,
but in every port of the United States
of any consequence and some of the
porta of 'Canada..';.' ).- ;;;.j-'-;:".-
"It would be greatly appreciated if
you - would wire a similar Indorsement
of Mr. Clerc v - i
-BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF
- THE PORT OF NEW ORLEANS.
"W. O. Hudson, President.'
Relative to action on moving pictures
and films In the advertlaing program
of Oregon and Portland, the matter
was referred to Frank Ira White and
W. t. ' B. Dodson of the Chamber of
Commerce.' ' .
A number of communications from the
engineer were taken up and passed.
Most of them were on application for
permits, i ' ,
