WEDNESDAY, JULY , 1921. fHE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND. OREGON IS LUMBERMEN STH.L WRESTLING WITH TARIFF QUESTION Washington, July .(WASH INGTON BUREAU OF THE JOCR- JjNALi) Controversy over a tariff on '!lnmKr rftntinnjte at m K4ab wa.a and it seems clear that there is to .be a fight to the finish against the imposition of any sort of a doty, jeven though the tariff, advocates (have reduced their demands to a retaliatory provision on tongued and grooved lumber alone. ( 'Republican leaders of the Mississippi valley will be satisfied with nothing less than absolutely free lumber, re gardless of the kind or the Canadian (duty. rORDXET FOR IT i . The Southern pine and Western pine I manufacturers and the retail lumber I men are against the duty; the West -eoast Lumbermen's association is for it 0 Chairman Joseph W. Fordney of the ays ana means commute is ior lt- is A manufacturer of Southern pine an owner of Western fir. A ch ar ris tie letter Is one recently writ- to Fordney by C 3. Win ton. a neapolis lumberman, in which he ays: "You are interested m the Guchrist Jfordney Lumber company, manufac turing yellow pine at Laurel, Miss. I Sun interested in the Wausau Southern Lumber company at the same place. Ve are both also interested . in timber Jn Oregon, so that in some respects we .have the same interests, although yours are, I doubt not, much larger than mine. Imakes AEG C ME 5 t "My principal Interests are In the tats of Idaho, where I am Interested jnjhree operations, and I am also in terested in one operation at The Pas, Manitoba, Canada My interests are nuch larger hi Idaho and Oregon than hey are In Canada. "The profits made since the war by lumber manufacturers certainly ought Jo satisfy and more than satisfy any one. It is hard for me to conceive ' fof a lumber manufacturer who would Shave the hardihood to show his profits . i for that period and then ask for any .protection against lumber coming la It might bring our Oregon timber 'into the market a little quicker, but it (would destroy to a very large extent that splendid trade relationship with Canada which we enjoys t the present time One of her prinpai means of paying us the balance hi trade is in lumber." PAMPHLETS JOB TARIFF K. B. Allen, secretary-manager of the West Coast association, has broadcast ed congress with a pamphlet favoring the tariff, asserting that eight years of free lumber have not reduced prices to the consumer or Increased the sup ply of lumber to any extent Canada could net supply the normal lumber demand of the state of New York alone, be say a if it exported all it produced ; but ' it exports only 30 par cent and only one-tenth of the Canadian output will be dutiable under the Fordney bill. Terming this an "in consequential percentage," he says it nevertheless r gjyea undue profits to a small group of men "that are ftasncmg the Canadian lumber lobby." theerrlestfighting grounds In con nection with the new tariff bill. Its closest rivals in interest appear to be. wool and oil. with sugar coming down the stretch for a share in the public Interest. County's Warrant Debt $395,966, Cash On Hand Is $24,813 County Auditor Martin issued a state ment Tuesday showing that oa July 1 warrants outstanding against the Mult nomah county general fund amounted to $395,966, while the cash on hand In the treasury at that time amounted to only 924,919. Interest oa the outstanding warrants is being paid by the county at the rate of per cent making $$164 paid out during the first six months of the year, in comparison to $485 paid out for in terest during the same period last year. Practically the entire interest charge this year waa ea warrants on the gen eral fund. Last year it was practically all on warrants on the road fund. Ob Jane 1 of this year outstanding warrants against the general fund amounted to $276,673. During June this amount was swelled by $164,306. Then $45,013 la warrants were paid; leaving a "red ink" balance on July 1 of $395,966. The road fund on July 1 had outstand ing warrants of $5213. The balance on hand frfom Interstate bridge tolls on July 1, 1921, waa $81,239 in comparison to $189, 73J at the name time last year, an Indication of a de cided falling off in toll receipts. North Bank Road Not for Sale, Say Rail Presidents Reports that the Great Northern Rail way company Intended to take over the Northern Pacific interests in the S. P. & S. railway, popularly known as the North Beak road, were denied Tuesday evening In a joint statement issued by Ralph Budd. president of the Great Northern, and Charles Donnelly, presi dent of the Northern Pacific through W. F. Turner, president of the S. P. A S. The message, which intimates that some change in the organization and op eration of the S. P. & s. is being con templated, la as follows: "The story that the Great Northern Railway company is to acquire the in terests of the Northern Pacific Railway company in the Spokane, Portland & Seattle railway is entirely incorrect and unfounded. The Northern Pacific has never at any time considered selling its interests in that property nor has the Great Northern considered purchasing. It is not at all certain that any change will be made in the operation of the Spokane, Portland Seattle Railway company's property, but it is absolutely certain that the equality of ownership of the Great Northern and Northern Pa cific will not be disturbed."
