It has become learned In local grain circles that a move is on to se cure an arrangement whereby wheat shipped east this season may be sent via Portland and cleaned in transit at i he docks In that city, it Is presum ed that authority for such a rate will have to be secured from the interstate commerce commission I There has been considerable com ! plaint regarding the handling of west ern wheat shipped east last fall and I during the winter. In the absence of j a state standard of grading wheat the wheat was graded and cleaned on reaching the Atlantic ports. In the cleaning process. It is declared a J? grading was often given than i the facts called for. Wheat contain ing nothing but dust was docked for being smutty. By having the wheat cleaned in transit In Portland it Is said the deal-. ers will have a better show in thi east At the same time the plan would avoid a congestion of cars at eastern terminals as least year the wheat had to be kept in the cars until it could le cleaned. What makes the problem a press ing one is the fact present indication.? are that all export wheat will go east ! by rail. Thus far no ships have been ! ihartered out of northwest porta and with the pronounced scarcity of ship it is possible all the ocean carriers will be kept on the Atlantic. Should suck prove the case, western people will want a square deal in the matter of grain grading In New York and It is said the shipment east of cleaned wheat will work to this end.
