SEATTLESFUTURE IN

THE ORIENTBusiness Man Sees Big Op-

portunity There: SaysWe're in Good Shape

By E. P. CHALCRAFTAltho the w«H-knowtl ndvlrn to

Go West, young man. go Wont,"

la oommonly *upp»wd to havr bt-pn

obaolctc with th« nprfftd of

America's population to the very

Kurt of the l*acirt<\ e.g. Anderson.president of the Western dry Goodscompany, and chairman of the for-

eign trade bureau of the Chamberof Commerce, believe* that Seattle'srreateet bualnrwa future still liestoward the setting sua.

"Kvery business mjui tn Seattleouicht to make a trip to the Orient."Ander»on said today to The Star.

"No matter how short his stay, I

am confident he would return with

is vision of opportunity that can l>«

acquired In no other way.

IMPORTANT TO KNOWsituation IN ORIENT

"Kor one thin*, the business man

who learns at first hand the presentsituation in the Orient will be able

to handle hla own forelirn businessmore Intelligently. Then. too. lia

will learn that It la essential for usto purchase as well aa to sell. That'san important lesson; and that Is onethinir to be borne in mind In fram-

Ins the new tariff bill."We must have a tariff, of course,

to protect our industries. We couldnot begin to compete with moat ofthe foreign countries, where laborand materials are so cheap and thepate of richinct so low, on a no-tariff basis. But if placet! too high,

the tariff will act as a boomerang

and defeat Its purpose. Were the

United States entirely self depend-

ant. a tariff wall high enough tokeep out all foreign competitionnight be all right. Out we UlliTbuy as well as sell. Therefore, weahould f>eek the happy medium In

the tariff. It's a mighty complex

and Important question to be

MlMd."Another fact not generally real-

bed. Anderson pointed out. Is the

ratatlvs nearness of the Orient toSeattle.CHINA NEARER TOSEATTLE THAN NEW YORK

"Did you Know that we can ship

goods to China in one-half the time

wa can to New York?" he asked.

-Moat of our trade with tha Atlantic

eoast these days ia carried on by

water routes, because the freight

rates are so heavy. A vessel of theaverage type now employed In inter-ooatal service requires 18 to 10 days

to reach Seattle from New York.The Seattle-Shanghai 'voyage takes

14 to 1« days. By eliminating stops

st San Pedro and San Francisco therunning time from New Tork toSeattle might be shortened by somefeur days. That would mean a bigwring to Seattle merchants.

"While we are on the subject of

shipping, I might say. for It la true,

that no one factor has been ofgreater force In building up Puget

sound cities than the Japanesetransportation companies. They sawthe opportunity for trade betweenthe Pacific coast and the Orient

first, and took advantage of it."Anderson has little use for the

business man who became scared attha beginning of the past business?lump and sold out, thus attemptingto dodge his responsibility.

"The man who sold out to avoidloss is both a slacker and a sucker,"Andrt-non declared. "He is a slacker,because he deserted at the very timewe needed him the most. And he taproving to be a sucker, because nowhe finds that thoae who stuck totheir guns and weathered the bus!neas depression have little use forthe fair weather sailor.BtmtNßM BKTTKK HERETHAN ELSEWHERE -

"Business conditions In Seattleare better than they are generallyIn other parts of the country," saidAnderson. "Out here we took ourlosses and squared around for re-adjustment sooner. It may takesome tlm« to get back to where wewere, but we are now on the upward

road. And what we hare accom-plished in the past is as nothing towhat the future holds for us InSeattle.

"We have only to catch the visionand gr&np the opportunity that lieswaiting."

As the Interview drew to a closeAnderson harked back once moreto the subject of tariff.

"We say we must have foreigntrade," he warned, "but to build ahigh tariff wall means to shut outthe very thing we are demanding.Remember?lt Is as essential to buyaa to sell."

FREIGHT TRansported

From re«or<l» kept on frelgtitpassing over the ferry Lincoln Inthe month of July, we find freight

transported at the rate of over 2A.000

tona annually. July la by no mean*

the beat month In the year, cpeclallythla year when the financial depres-

Hlon waa at It* woniL Thla total

will ohm nearer 40.000 tona than28,000 for the entire year.

Hear In mind that the frelgtit men-tioned wa« that handled by trucksalone on the Lincoln and did not In-

clude the hundreda of thouiuinda of

dollar* worth of gooda of alt klnda.carried over by hand and by privateautomobile.

Take the »0 per cent of the realdent* of that aectlon and you willfind that every article of clothing

from bat to ahoes waa purcbaaed InSeattle. Ton* of Seattle groceries

are consumed In their home* everyday. Beat tie furniture atore* have

furalahed their home* and everyother line of mer«-handl*e find* cus-tomers on the Kant Bide. Thla isequally true on Vashon Inland.

The attitude of several of Seattle'slarge property owner* towards theferry servlcs has within recent yearsbeen Interpreted by resident# thsterritory lying east of lAke Wash-ington as being antagonistic to thatsection. Whll. the merchants of th«city have not been party to what hasbeen dona, they have lost much busi-ness as the direct result of this senti-ment.

Rrerrtt has brnnn aware sfthis condition and la making cap-

ital of U ItIs offering every In-ducement to the Kast Hider totends in thai progressive city.Isrp .nlru have been plasteredover thla aertion of King county,inviting the iraldenl* to KvrretLRrpreerntalHms have been Inthe field, and every legitimatemethod u*ed to Induce trade to

Krerett. They are being urn aidedfor their efforts.Kven as the tree send* forth Its

roots to gather custenance andatrcngth from the surrounding soil,

so must a city draw Ita strength

from the surrounding territory.Th» chamber of Commerce sends

forth lta hundreds of thousands toattract new Industries and more peo-ple to Brattle. It Ik well that this l>«done, but In reaching out for morewe ahould tAjcc bred that we lose nutwhat we hava.

Where the ferries mean pennies tothe communities across U<e waters,

thev mean dollars to seattle.County CAn Afford TOSTAND reasonable Deficit

Another phase of the ferry ques-tion presents Itself. The Increase Invalue of property In the territoryserved by the ferries meana moretaxes paid by that territory.

Every dollar ujips that comesfrom other source* means a dollarlean for Heattle.

According «o figures Riven by thecounty aui>ertntendeot of achoola,the valuation of property In Kingcounty has Increased within th« (Hist

.\u25a0?even years according; to the follow-ing table:

Ter CentKing county Increase 3022 school districts affected by

ferry service SO94 rural dlxtrlcts not affected

by ferries 18The 22 districts to which reference

Is made are nil on the east side ofWashington as that is the only

territory that has had service for anylength of time.

Compare tlx? rural districts affected by ferry service to the other ruraldistricts of the county. The formerhave had on Increase of 80 per centand the lntter 1* per cent.

The Increased taxes paid by the 22districts affected by the ferries In1919 was (109,524 1* greater than thetaxes paid In 1913.

This means $109,524 less for othertaxpayers to puy.

nils figure alone Is greater thanthe loss on the big lake ferries lustyear.COMMISSIONERS did NOTDARE Lease Ferries

There have l>een many Ideas ad-vanced ns to the reason the commitsloners did not lease the ferries aswits their evident Intention when thecall for bids was recently Issued.

The commissioners announced thatIt was becuuae the bonus demanded

wu too large. I cannot accept thisus the real reason and there arcthousands of the name opinion.

The commissioners fully Intendedto lease the l>oats. They expectedto pay a bonuH. The lowest bid railcd for a bonus of $76,000. This bonuswan as small an could l>e reasonablyexpected. In fart, I was surprised

would have demanded If a bidder forthe contract.OPPOSITION Of The PressMADE THEM SWITCH

It was not the size of the bid thatmiide ths commissioners change theirminds. It was the opposition of Thestar and other seattle papers, to-gether with the sentiment arousedamong the people thereby.

I am thoroly convinced that TheSenttle Htar by Its editorials previousto the date s»-t for the decision ofthe commissioners, blocked theawarding of the contract.

I personally differ with The HtarIn Its belief of fraud In connection

with the contract. I believe that thecommissioners were square In thisdeal. They reallyd that they hadmade a miserable failure of the Job.They knew that If they held on that

a storm was due to break. They

wanted to get from under and thelease plan was the one adopted, withthe expectation that the public
