SUGGESTIONS FOR RELIEF

T.. II. Hnzen Summarizes His Recom-
mcndntions to Members of Federal
Irnic CommlssIOn


CHICAGO. July 20.-NIembers of the

to-day and left for Detroit, where they
Will hold hearing tomorrow.
The statements that the lumb.:

sentati"cs Of the industry who appeared
before tho commission to-day.
4. B. liazen, OF Portland. Orc repre-
sentinS the West Coast Lumber Manu-
facturers' Association, summarized his
recommendations for the relief of ex-
listing conditions as follows:
Our marine laws should be amended
so that we can compete with vessels
under foreign faEs--so that we can
purchase ships anywhere and operate
them under our flag offshore and be-
tween the Pacific and Atlantic coasts
railroad owned ships should be per-
united 10 operate through the Panama
CanaI from coast to coast.
The lumber men should be per
mitted to form cooperative selling
agencies to care for the domestic
trade"
The government practice OF selling
timber to manufacturers on the present
system" Mr.. Hazen said, makes tho
operators on government lands the
hardest competitors we have and places
our government in direct competition
with u.s."

and the dealer soon found that he had
accidentally invented new drink-or
a new food, whatever 1t is. The FASH
ion spread thence until it had COW

All this looks natural enough, but
this explanation is so extremely easy
that II seems unnecessary to hitch 1t

PORT OF PRINCE RUPERT
Building City Believed to Huvc n
Great Future.


The further north one goes the less
is the distance cast and west across
continents and across oceans This we'll
known fact largely accounts for the
Grand Trunk hallway and it's far North
Pacific Coast terminal at Prince Rup-
ert just south of the panhandle OF
Alaska. TO plan and build city with
falls to the lot of man. Gary is one
notable example of the unusual in this
respect. When William 4. Donnely.
consulting engipeer of New York
City, was intrusted with the future
Prince Rupert, n similar opportunity
was his and the following brief de-
scription is Of this city now in the
making:
After careful survey it vas decided
that the city should be located OH the
north shore of Kalen Island. AS this
point is about 900 miles removed from
any source of supply. the necessity of
complete independence as regards out
side help, both now and in the future
is at once apparent. Building on that
plan, the present terminal construction
started with complete machine shops
provided with heavy machinery of all
types. Following this was the boiler
ana blacksmithing shop, administration
building, complete steam electric DOW
er station of 5000 horse power CAPACITY
shipbuilding shed, launching platform
etc needed to complete such an in
stallation.
That the city of Prince Rupert will
grow rapidly as soon as this new line
makes itself felt is an assured fact.
Ihat this line and port will make ac-
tive bid for the vast wheat tonnage of
central Canada is certain. In only one
section are grades of per cent en-
countered. while over most of the line
nNe-elShths OF l per cent or less are
shown. Add to this n 5oO-mIle adyant
age IN distance to Japan tclaimed by
the Grand Trunk officials as against
any other Pacific Coast port), with the
ADDED advantage of shorter haul across
the continent, and will see some of
the why" OF Prince Rupert. The his
Kerry OF Prince Rupert. however, lies
almost wholly in the future, and the
present interest in the port is largely
due to the novel conditions surround
ing its birth and growth.-Engineerin
