mayor of Portland.
Mayor Baker is active chairman
of l he board. In a personal letter
rec-eived by The Statesman yester
day. Mayor Baker says:
"Allow us. as officers of the state
Advisory board, to thank you for
your participation in this drive. We
are with you heart and soul to see
the full state quota raised and
every activity or the army properly
functioning. Interest is-manifest on
every hand. The Salvation Army has
done and is doing the most splendid
piece of constructive work it has
been our good fortune to be assort

When men so overwhelmed with
official responsibilities as Mayor
Baker and A. L. Mills can be per

Kxpirt businrs continues an Im
portant factor in the lumber indus
try of western Oregon and Western
Washington, as indicated by the
weekly report of the West Coat
Lumbermen's association.
At 12G representative mills, ex
port orders for the week ended Apr'l
24 were 1".106.920 reet. the previous
week they were 16.436.0oo feet. In
the last six weeks these orders have
aggregated 62.000.000 feet. Much
or this business go-;-s to Australia
and the orient, some to the west
coast of South America and some
England; scattering cargoes and
parcels are destined for nearly all
parts of tbe globe. These 126 mills
now have a total of 76.29S.O00 feet
of export orders on their Ixxiks.
Most Moves Itr lUil
The aggregate of all new business
accepted by these mills, within the
week was 71.273.524 feet of which
47. 610. 000 or 1387 cars, were
booked to move by rail.
At the same time they chipped
1742 cars, leaving 10.081 cars or
302.4 30.000 feet of unfilled rail or
ders on their books. The unfulfilled
business both rail and water ship
ments is equivalent to 43C.405.000
feet.
The induftry is running on a hitch
production basis. Total cut at the
126 mills for the week was 87.081.
927 fet which was 3 919.073 feet
or 4.31 per cent below the normal.
Stock Shortage Shown
The monthly stock report of the
association shows that stocks at
some mills are below normal and that
the Industry as a whole is slightly
short of Ftocks.
Analysis of car distribution for the
month of March shows that rail ship
ments from Oregon and Washington
went into nearly every state in the
union.

HAS THE PEAK BEEN REACHED?
SOME day conditions are going to change.
Some say that it won't be long coming, or

extravagance and speculation will pass.
In any event, carefulness is a virtue; careless

Most of these reports showed thit
the radicals were preparing gigantic
propaganda demonstrations, but
meetings are scheduled in many
places, and it is at these that the
trouble might develop, according to
Mr. Garvan. The department, he
aid. would allow "those gatherings
to talk themselves blue. but govern
ment agents would observe the tenor
of agitation. Agents have been in
structed "not to incite or excite Irou
ble in any such assembly."
It wa3 disclosed by Mr. Garvan
that several members of congress.
three federal judges and an attorney
recently active in invetigating rad
ical disturbances had been marked
for assassination. With the early
discovery of the plots, however, Mr
Oar van believed the officials against

now were amply protected.
