THE DALLES REJECTS Chamber of Commerce Refuses to Endorse Mill Operations. The Dulles Optimist. Articles of incorporation of The Dalles Pine Veneer and Manufactur ing company were tiled with the county clerk Wednesday, the papers being presented by Dick Cain, Port land resident. This corporation is something over a month old, and was formed for the purpose of developing the timber resources in the Friend section, with a mill and veneer plant at The Dalles. It is a mutter in which the industrial committee of The Dalles-Wasco County Chamber of Commerce was interested, but the plan proposed was turned down by them, as it had all the appearance of one of J. Rufus Wallingford's best efforts when he was in his prune. Briefly, the facts in the matter are as follows: C. J. Harrison and J. L. Fischer of the Black Butte Lumber Co. made some kind of a deal with J. G. Heimrich, whereby they se cured the box factory and mill site at the east city limits and a string on the 263,000,000 feet of government timber which Heimrich has contract ed for. The Bluck Butte people, working on a shoe string which has evidently played out desired local capital and since coming here have interested some smaller investors, and desired to get going on a large scale. The $750,000 corporation, according to the proposition made the Chamber com mittee, was to be formed as follows: Of the capital stock, $250,000 was to be seven per cent preferred and $500,000 common. John Heimrich was to receive $86,000 as a "prepay ment" on the timber, and $50,000 for the1 mill site, in seven per cent pre ferred stock, and $100,000 in this stock was to be taken up locally at par, to provide working capitul. Of the common stock, $170,735 was to represent the Black Butte's "equity" in timber; $130,000 was to be paid for the sawmill they were to build; -(take a look at it); $30,000 was to be used for a veneer plant building, and $72,000 for the machin ery; and the Black Butte people were to receive another $10,000 for a small mill owned and located near Friend. This left $88,000 of treasury stock. J. G. Heimrich was to receive a bonus of $1.00 per thousand for the government timber he has contracted for and paid $10,000 on, which would reach a total of over a quarter of a million dollars. Under this agree ment, the timber was to be turned over at a valuation of $3.50 per thousand, and it was bought from the government for $2.00, the extra 60c over Heimrich's velvet representing a rake off for the Black Butte peo ple. The Chamber of Commerce com mittee assured the Black Butte rep resentatives that they were willing to do anything they could to aid in this big development, but that they asked too much when they wanted people to put up their money on any such basis. The dealings of the Black Butte people with the business men of The Dulles have been generally unsatis factory, and during the brief time they have operated here they have miled to meet their pHyrolls, been sued for wages, had liens slapped on their property and left some NSF checks. Another chapter in their operations was brought to light yes terday when The Dalles-Wasco Coun ty Chamber of Commerce was served with a writ of attachment issued out of Multnomah county, levying on any sums that the chamber might have belunging to the Black Butte, to sat :rfy a claim for $1105.21. Which makes it clear that they had been representing the chamber to be as sociated with them. Naturally, the service of this writ will net no re turn. Development of the timber tribu tary to The Dalles is a certainty, and there is r.o doubt but that it will be brought about in the near future, for the Forest Service will eventually tire of dilatory tactics and require action. But this development will not be brought about by the people now interested." Since the Black Butte people asked the aid of the Chamber of Commerce, which represents the people of The Dulles, and the public is looking to ward their organization for results, the facts in the situation should be known.
