For Upper Willamette
River Transportation
The government has taken up the
consideration as te whether it was best
to have all river traffic withdrawn
from the upper Willamette river, ac
cording to lato information at hand.
A survey of the river is to bo made by
Colonel Zinn, Corps of Engineers, in
charge of the First and Second District
The party of engineers will leave
Portland today gouig direct to Corval
lis, board the govornment launch
Salem at that point and steam down
the river. They expect to arrive in
the city this jveninjr, resuming their
journey to Portland Friday morning.
ino recent withdrawal of tho boots
of the Oregon City Transportation com
pany between Portland and Corvallis
was due to a lack of patronage. With
the increasing cost of operation it was
found that tho boats could not be
profitably operated.
Comparing rates, it seems that the
O. C. T. company was working on only
yrv cent uiiierciuiai irom tne rajl
road lines. With the recent advance in
railroad rates, it is thought that river
rates could be advanced to some extent,
at least enough to permit the running
of boats on the upper Willamette.
War Savings Stamps
Campaign Is Opened
' A committee of the War Savings
fnaiiio campaign consisting of W. M.
Hamilton, E. T. Barnes, Reuben P.
Boise and Ben F. West called on Judge

assured by Judge Bushey that the
county would aid in a financial way as
tne raising of the amount is a patriotic
duty.

ing at 10 o'clock at the Commercial
club, delegations from all the school
districts in the county will be present
at hear an address by O. N. Wonacott
of Portland, assistant director of the

the campaign will lbe outlined and an
nouncement made of the quota for
each school district. The delegates
will also be given instructions how to
orgaime their respective school dis
tricts in the county, it is figured that
none will be overlooked and that each
district in the county will be given an
opportunity to sell its quota of War
Savings stamps.
The committees for each school dis
trict and town will simply receive sub
scriptions for the War Saving Stamps
and a pledge of the amount a verson
will buy each month for six months be
ginning with July. As explained by
the committee, it will give every adult
and every child in the county an op
portunity to agree to save aVrertain
amount eacl month for the remainder
of the year and to invest this amount
with the government. The campaign
is national with $17,000,000 to be sub

OREGON RETAIL
JEWELERS ARE HERE
Business Sessions Held Close
With Banquet and Pro
gram Tonight
The second day's session of the
Oregon Retail Jewelers opened with
an address at the Commercial 'club by
Walter A. Denton, secretary Oregon
Retail Grocers' and Merchants' asso
ciation. In his talk, Mr. benton took the
stand that the retailer must not over
look the human element with his em
ployee as well as the public and that
the modern retailer must do his share
in building up his community and com
munity life. It was the duty of a mer
chant to so conduct his business as to
build up his community, he said, and
to keetp business at home rather than
to conduct it in such a manner' that
hig home folks' would support mail or
der houses built cn inferior merchan
dise and through misrepresentations.
He also urged it hat retailers should
be free from such an indirect tax on
the public as trading stamps and free
gifts wherein the public always final
ly pays in full. He claimed that the
"merchant is really the backbone of a
community and that ho was the first to
bo solicited and the first to give for
the advance of local affairs.
This afternoon at 2 o'clock, Milton
A. Miller, United Sta'es revenue col
lector, delSvcretl an address on the spe
cial tax to which jewelers are subject
and giving general information as to
how this tax affects the business man.
. At 7:30 o'clock this evening the din

Government Price On
Wool Definitely fixed
The farmer who has a small clip of
wool is now assured of the govern
ment's price at from 47 to 63 cents a
pound, according to grade and tliero
ore no restrictions as to disposing of
same, except that instead of having
the wool graded by a local buyer, it
must be graded by a licensed dealer,
such as Clifford W. Brown or the Thoa.
Kay Woolen Mills.
. The government regulations permit
the local buyer to charge Hie wool
owner one half a cent a pound merely
for shipping ajid sending to a licensed
dealer, if the wool is sent direct to
these dealers, he of course saves tho
half cent a pound.
Woolen mills arc limited to buyini
to within a radius of . 50 mlies from the
mill whilo a licensed dealer may buy
any where in the Willamette valley.
Hence the man who has a small clip
of wool to sell may have it handled by
his local banker or any local firm at an
expense of half a cent a pound. Tho
priw leceived will depend on the trad
ing and this year buyers say there is
but little to be sold at the low price of .
47 cents and that the average will run
up pretty close to 60 cents a pound.
