TO MAKE PORTLAND
A REAL OCEAN PORT
Service Commission
Want Empty Cars Brought
From East

Tn a letter to r. H. Ashton, region
al director of the railroad administers
ttion, the Oregon Railroad commission
outlines a plan for solving the trans
portation problems of eastern Oregon
and which, if carried out, will have the
l'affect of establishing Portland as an
ocean port for trans-Pacific traffic.
lAttention is called to the fact that
There is a harbor at Portland suitable
for ships of a 30 foot draft, and that
there are ample storage and dockage
Facilities. The letter states in part:
You are, of course, ware that it is
impossible either from a financial
standpoint as well as from the question
'of storage facilities for the mills in
this territory to take care Of govern
mental requirements unless the side
cut is also shipped and used for com
mereial purposes. Generally speaking,
the mills are unable financially, nor
have they sufficient storage facilities,
to continue to cut on government or
ders for any considerable length of
jitime, unless the material not needed
I'by government can also be disposed OF,
and the many other industries in Ore
gon, and particularly the eastern poT-
Ition thereof, are seriously handicapped
DIN their output or closed down entirely
Ifor the want of equipment with which
ito ship their products. This is especial
|ly true of flour mills and warehouses
desiring to ship flour and wheat.
With the equal Of only about 66 per
centage Of their own equipment, the
10. w. R. & n, which serves the great
Ter portion Of the eastern part of the
state, is unable to meet the demands
made upon it for transportation. The
volume Of traffic in this territory is
.eastbound, and in order that suffi-
lcient ears may be secured to handle
the output in the west, it is essential
that many cars should be diverted to
the Pacific coast and hauled into this
territory empty.
If Portland could be designated az
an ocean port for trans-Pacitic move
lment, the cars unloaded there could
then be used for eastbound movement.
The storage and dockage facilities in
Portland are ample and could hold
many thousand tons Of freight. The
port is available for deep water ships
of 30 foot draft and we trust that some
method may be found whereby these
facilities can be used to the greatest
possible advantage.
