of the
who presided at the ,
hearing, and Lieutenant 1'.
Ilutier. All lold how development
of this harbor would benefit them
and the territory Involved.
Mines llantlhiippcil
I.. A. l.evensaler. head of the
northwe.-:t mining department of
the American Smelting and Refin
ing company, pointed out that
mines In this territory nre paying
a higher freight rate per ton mile
haul than any other customers of
his firm. Ho declared that In all
eases transportation had been the
chief drawback of mines tributnry
to (SrantH l'ass. Ore., and tills city.
"We are buying copper ore from
three properties that could In
crease their output and ship via
Crescent City If harbor racinues
nermltte'd and a railroad was built
to the coast," l.evensaler declared.
Ho explained how these properties
at present are shipping via Kiddle,
Orants Pass and Medford, Ore., by
railroad at greater expense than If
this harbor was developed.
Amu I'ntlcnlevelopctl
Levensaler said his company is
interested in finding an economic
outlet for the ores of tills district
as it is considered one of the best
undeveloped mineral areas in
northern California and southern
Oregon.
The chamber of commerce of
Medford in a report submitted at
the hearing listed 11 .091) carloads
of products shipped from that sec
tion during the year 1H2S. The
report said: Should development
of the Crescent City harbor reach
a point where ocean going craft
could be accommodated, a large
portion of this represenlatlvn ton
nage would be made tributary to
that point. Transportation facil
ities between the Hague ltlver val
lev and that harbor would result."
Hobbs. Mall & company of tills
city reported they are forced to
export lumber in small boats, from
which the product is transferred
to ocean going vessels at San
lianeisco. Development of tKls
harbor, their report stated, would
eliminate, this transfer.
Ship More Oil
The oil company representatives
testified to shipping largo iiuantl
ties of their products through
Crescent City in the past. They
were unanimous In declaring these
shipments would Increase in num
ber and size if this harbor was de
veloped. A statement by Standard Oil
said tile company has erected a
large plant at Crescent City and
has shipped to that city and by
truck and boat LTm tons of bulk
products since August litl'll.

as against 75 per cent last week,
reports from the steol trade were .
