High Pier Rentals Eliminated
BY Publicly Owned Terminals

In New York harpor steamship lines pay
rentals as high as 100000 a year for dock
conveniences far lower than the roomy
Seattle standard Yet these municipal docks
of the Western port are operated on gen.
erous and equal terms to all commerce at
all times. In a word. these publicly owned
terminals are free highway, open alike to
freight connection and ship approach. In
other ports steamship companies are subject
to high rental for piers, to charges for
preferential assignments, to charges for
berthage From any place in the world a
ship may sail into Seattle and berth with
out charge for berthage at any of the mu-
nicipal piers.
Altogether II is an interesting experiment.
In Seattle itself it has had a stimulating ef-

ments. And everywhere else the example
set will repay study Nor is its value as
an example vitiated by the fact that Seat
tie was inspired to this effort by mag
nificent trade opportunity. An uncommonly
fine natural harbor lay ready to hand.
Seattle is fortunate beyond this, in its geo.
graphical location. In mileage to ports in
the Far East it enjoys advantages over
every other Pacific port. II Is nearer TO
Vladivostok by 296 miles, to Yokohama by
273 miles, 302 nearer to Hongkong ESQ to
Batavia, 476 nearer to Manila, and 500 miles
nearer to Alaska
Seattle has its eye on China Manchuria
and Siberia. Returned army engineers have
brought back to Seattle newspaper inter-
vic wers the confident prediction that sooner
or later we shall tap in that region the rich

order to back up his case he referred to the
fact that wheat area greater than that

According to Col. Emerson, these fertile
areas, hiding no one knows what mineral
wealth, and yearly producing riches in un-
marketable beef butter, hides and so on,
arc begging for American made articles,
from pins to locomotives. Naturally Seat

assistant In the physics laboratory
of the Bureau Of Standards in Washington,
who little more than decade ago accepted
a humble job with the Government in this
same laboratory following the completion
of his university and undergraduate work,
suddenly has become famous as one of per-
haps four men in the world regarded as the
tific subject.
For inventions and discoveries of methods
for determining and accurately measuring
the radiant heat reaching the earth from
the stars and other heavenly bodies DIR.
Coblentz has been awarded the Jansen
medal by the French Academy OF Sciences.
This means that DIR. Coblentz has become
a commanding figure in the scientific world.
The award of this medal is a distinction
coveted by many scientists. though won by
few 1t is regarded as one of the highest
recognitions within the gift Of those author
lied to confer scientific honors. 1t was won
by Dr. Coblentz not in any contest with
others. nor in any test with set rules quail
fications and so on, but is wholly unsought
thing, growing out of the fact that the
work done by him has, in the opinion of
those who make the award, placed him
within the high circle of men whose names
stand first in scientific annals
DR.. Coblentz was entirely unaware that
he was being considered for such recogni-
ton until he with other readers of news
papers saw in a cabled despatch from Paris
that the award had been made.

the harbor in order to encourage such indus
tries
Thus far seven piers have been constructed
in this novel community effort. All are
larger than the average ocean terminal in
other ports of the world. And two of them,
Smith Cove Pier A and Smith Cove Pier b.
outdo anything yet attempted in cargo
handling These two piers are each roughly
half a mile long. One of them is $40 feet
wide, but The other has width of 365 feet.
Each is lined with about four miles of rail-
road track, with space for 800 freight cars at
time. The two piers together provide space
at one time for twenty cargo vessels Of the
$500 ton type built by the Shipping Board.
Switch connections with the yards of the
transcontinental trunk rail lines and ham
ding machinery of the most modern design,
enable these ships to be loaded and unloaded
without congestion and with a minimum
waste in time and power.
Mechanical Equipment Does Away
With Teaning and Hand Labor
In themselves these two piers are mina-
ture freight yards. The inner tracks may
be used for storage of goods In cars On
the two outer tracks through or rush freight
can be hosted from the holds of the vessels
and landed directly in the waiting cars.
No teamng or trucking Is needed, and little
mana laDOr. frelRnt Is dfSCnarged by me-
chanical means almost entirely. Examples
of this mechanical equipment are a 325-
horse power gantry travelling crane, 1856
ton steel derrick, several 35-ton locomotive
cranes, a 12-ton stiff-leg derrick. For crate
and lighter package freight a system of
tractors and trailers Is employed, with in
clned conveyors for loose grains and seeds
and the like, electric stacking elevators for
boxed goods. gravitor roller conveyors and
other devices.
That genuine economies result from these
methods the records amply prove in items
such as these: 5.76S barrels of oil unloaded
from the steamer City of Spokane at a cost
OF nine cents a barrel; 1000 tons OF beam
cake and sugar from the same vessel han
died by tractors. trailers and unloading plat
forms, at 20 cents a ton; 1000 tons of beans,
rape seed and maize from a Japanese ship
at 80 cents ton A recent feat was the
unloading of six 55-ton boilers from car to
ships hold at an average rate of a boiler
slowed every 13 minutes.
Goods have been moved by tractor trains
directly from shpside to the warehouse for
term storage without touching the dock or
transit shed floor. And as ships are kept
waiting at dock for shorter periods of un-
loading, they become more profitable to their
owners.
About one third Of the water borne COM
merce of Seattle is cared for by these public
terminals. In the past three years they

single generation 1t had accumulated no
priceless but outworn properties to take
over, no hard and fast customs and preju-
dices to break down. 1t had no need to cut
aside tough old growths in cutting fresh
roads to progress. This fact remains, how
ever-Seattle saw it's opportunity, and met
1t. Met it by united effort in bold ex-
pertinent. It's people had unity Of purpose,
readiness in enterprise and the daring to
risk novel step in the loan Of municipal
authority to the interests of trade. These
feats may be easier in a small and compact
community. Whey are not impossible here.
