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.
