Mill stocks are depleted. Physical

pairs during July and August that
heavily restricted immediate pro-
duction is certain.
Notwithstanding the heavy vol
ume OF business booked and offer

prosperous. Costs, held somewhat
in check on a high level, thru gov
ernmental regulation during war
times, are again showing disposition
to pyramid. The composite cost
statement OF forty-three representa-
tive mills for the month Of April,
shows that the production OF thous-
and feet Of lumber cost S21.54. The
composite sales report OF the same
mills indicate a return OF s20.6S per
thousand feet, or, considering the
bulk of the industry, loss of eigh-
ty-six cents on every thousand feet
of lumber manufactured during the

BANKING CAMPAIGN

object of encouraging thrift was re-
Gently run in Cleveland, Ohio.
Some of the results OF this cam.

Euclid avenue bank was visited by
three Assyrians who deposited over
100000 in currency that they had

the idea of putting II in a bank.
The enterprising banks of the
country have caught the big idea
that the surest way to increase their
business is to show the other fellow
how to get ahead first. In doing
this they not only build the founda-
tion for their own business but they
are doing great national good In
teaching the public the idea OF bust

SURPLUS LUMBER AT

Surplus lumber at six shipyards
on Puget sound, remaining from
cancellations of wooden steamer con-
tracts made by the shipping board,
has been disposed of definitely
about 100000 feet being involv-
ed, according to announcement made
at the Portland office of the fir pro-

The plants where the timber was
stacked include the Patterson-Mc-

get Sound Bridge & Dredging COM

Approximately twice as much lum-

of 1t being in plants along the VIII
lamette and Columbia rivers, none
of which has actually been sold, tho
negotiations under way will result
in at least one of the yards being
eliminated from the list in a few
days and other lots are being sought.
The sale of equipment and stores
is expected to be in progress soon,
since the organization of the force
is under way here, and all property
is being listed and assembled in prep

Over 100000 pounds OF govern
ment wool was sold at auction June

Warehouse. II was the most sue
cessful Of three sales and on Sc.
cured wool basis brought higher
prices than at recent Boston auction.
When It is realized that Portland
Is second only to Boston as a wool
center, the present demand for wool
speaks well for the, future of the
wool industry in western states.
Growers ara realizing the advan-
tage of grading up flocks whose
fleeces command the highest price.
This coupled with modern grading
and warehousing euch as the CpIum-
ha Basin affords gives the grower
every penny there is in his wool clip.

THERE WILL BE COAL SHORTAGE

In the southeastern fields there is
5S,OOO,OOO tons shortage
of normal coal production.
United Mine Workers demand a
6-hour day, five days per week or
80 hours production at pay Of As
hours.
They demand still further nation
alization of coal miners, which means
applying government inefficiency to
production. a
With the first signs Of labor
trouble in July the railroads will
make demand to take over the
bulk of the supply.
In the excessive and unusual de-
mands OF the miners unions, the
consumer is entirely overlooked.
1t looks as IL car shortage would
accentuate coal shortage, thus add
ing burden of the public.

Their operating costs have
doubled while corresponding increas.

Municipal operation in Boston has

that increased rates were necessary
