PLANTS EXPECTED
; Portland will have in operation in
a few days -the only United States
government . licensed wool ware
house -in the west and the largest In
the entire countr.
Its operation and the issuance by it of
standardized receipts for wool on a grad
ed basis will make it possible for the
warehouse company and ' for banks to
finance the wool clip and to rediscount
loans at the federal reserve bank.
Western growers would be enabled to
store and market their product according
to the demand, and to scour. Western
wools,; reclaiming the valuable by-products
and shipping only the pure wooL
These were t statements made this
morning by II. K. Hoi man, Jr., espert
for the United States department of agri
culture;! - who ' came to Portland from
Washington, D. C, to pass on the huge
wool warehouse and scouring mill of the
Western wool Warehouse, which Is now
being completed at St. Johns.
Hoi man said that the establishment of
the big plant meant that the first step
had been taken toward the Inauguration
of a tremendous textile industry in the
West.
"As a result of. the warehouse here be
ing licenced and bonded by the govern
ment, you will find textile industries
growing all over the West, for by the is
suance of the graded receipts represent
ing collateral of a known value, banks
will be able to finance the wool so stored.
This will make it possible for textile
plants to operate on smaller capital with
the assurance of being able to obtain ex
act grades of wool,'! he declared.. ,
"In fact. In my belief, the establish
ment of this plant goes even farther, and
the day Is not far off when you here in
Portland will be manufacturing the raw
wool products of the Orient."

List : of Slackers .
In Multnomah Bead
To Post of Legion
Heading of the slacker list .for Multno
mas county created no littte interest in
the closed meeting of Portland post of
the American Legion Monday night in
the club rooms. Prepared by the adju
tant general of the state, the list was
read before all members in good stand
ing to prevent any error by ; naming
those who were In service. The list was
confidential and is not ready for pub
lication. ' j -i "Jr-
i Despite the care with which the rec
ords had been searched names of men
were Included who had seen service and
lots of it. On the other hand few of the
draft dodjrers were left, off and in the
llst'were the names of many well known
men of the county. Cheers af approval
greeted the names of those whom the
letonairres had a , ''sneaking idea"
should be listed when f the names . were
officially read off. ?t ! -
A touch of pathos was given the read
ing when Jane V. Doyle objected to the
reading of one name, 1 The name was
that of a. lad who had recently died of
wounds received in the service. Through
Borne error it had been Included among
those .who- evaded the responsibilities of
citizenship. ' : ; i r ; t
Other business of importance ' con
ducted was the nomination of fhe dele
gates to the annual convention it-Ku-jrene
and requesting, legion members to
register for the special election in June.

Purchases Increase
In Pacific Section
Says Credit Eeport
The April report of the credit clearing
bouse of New York is based on about
200,000 actual transactions by manufac
turers and wholesaler, aggregating in
volume over $1 50,000,000.
In the Pacific coast section, the re
port states that purchases were more
active than in March, but not so good
as the corresponding month for the past
five-years. -.-
Indebtedness in April waa less than
the month, previous, as well as in April,
1920, 1918, 1917 and. 1916, but is higher
than April, 1919. -, ,
Payments show, less activity than in
March as well aa April, 1920. 1919 and
1916, and are better than April 1918 and
1817.
Congress Hard at
Work on Problems
Of Labor, Trade
By Walter B. Brown.
Editor New Totfc rVimmerrial
' (Written for the TJnited News)
New York, My S. Congress and the
administration are bard at. work in an
endeavor to solve our domestic prob
lems. Transportation is the keynote, and
that. In 'turn, hinges upon the labor
problem. Hearings before the railway
labor board are still in progress, but
there is little doubt in anyone's mind
that the board will recognize existing
conditions as against the theories of
amateur economists of the type now
pleading labor's cause. Kven if it be
true, aa they claim, that more efficient
management can reduce operating costs,
the benefTj of such reductions does not
belong to the railway employes, but ; to
the general public m the- lorm or. re
duced freight and passenger rates.
This particular group of wage earn
ers has no divine right to a subsidy at
the cost of heavy taxation of the general
public If that were so, itwould be far
better to levy a direct tax and be done
with it, rather than have it spread
throughout the entire economic fabric as
it does now. It has been pointed out
that it has cost the nation since the
government took over the railroads, in
the way of guarantees and losses of
various kinds having to dowitn the ex
travagant operation of the'.roads, some
thing like $2,000,000.000, ; and yet it is
declared that this sum will have been
well expended if it wilKhave cured the
people of the 'socialistic idea of govern
ment ownership of the railroads..
The state park committee has accepted
a deed from Robert Moran, retired ship
builder, for 26.000 acres of natural park
land on Orcas island. Puget sound.
