Firm Market For Strawberries In Western Oregon PORTLAND, Muy 26 W) Great lncroiwo in BtoraKQ holdings of but; tcr along the Pacific slopo as com pared with this sanw period a year ago, appears a big factor against val uta, wnlch ore already at the lowoat level known here for creamery make. With production oi butter holdhiif up unusually well in tho Pacific northwest; and California flooded with suppll-38, the lownoBs of tho Chicago prlco has created more or less fear of a liberal Invasion of tho coa-.it mar kets by the midwest churning. i Market for eggs Is practically with out price change with moro or less underselling continued by unattach-, cu producers selling direct to rotall- j ors. This Is making It difficult fur established firms to maintain values. Oood demand remains for chickens locally with no furthor change in tho' general prlco Hat.

Hun dreds of othors crowded tho corri dors, rotunda and overflowed into the slrcot. As Walkor entered the courtroom, hisses were mingled with cheers and Senator Hofstadtor threatened to clear tho room If there was any repe tition of tho demonstration! Samuel Seabury, chief counsel of tho legislative committee, launched into questions about tho city fran chise to the Eultable Bus company, which tho mayor signed. Tho questions .began with mat ters of some years ago and in sev eral Instances the nviyor replied ho could not rempnnjbor tho details. "I never recommended tho Equit able franchise I voted for it," Wal ker said in answer to a question. "You urged It among your po litical colleagues didn't you?" he was asked." Denies Ih'Klng Franchise "I did not. The mayor never has in 0 years asked the board of esti mate to voto for or against any thing." The hearing has not gono far bo foro a brief verbal tilt occurred be tween tho mayor and tho gray haired former Judgo. Seabury questioned tho mayor as to why ' he voted for tho Equitable franchise. Mayor Wal kor leaned forward. "I don't think you havo any more' right to question an executive and cross examine him on the official workings of his mind," the mayor nHsoVtcd, "than you havo to ques tion the governor on ar appoint ment or the president or theJnitcd States, however .. Apple use drowned out the rest. A few minutes, later Seabury en gaged in a brief argument with one of tho members of the committee as to the purport of recent testimony. "And you ask me," tho mayor ex claimed, "to renumber things that happened five or six years ago, when you can't remember what happened here last week," A burst of laughter resounded through tho packed courtroom and tho committee chairman threatened to clear the room. Seabury asked the mayor again re garding his vote for the bus fran chise and he answered: r ; "I can only repeat what I said be- j fore that I voted for the Equitable franchise because it provided an In itial 6 cent fare, which I have con sistently advocated." .More Applause Heard Continued ripples of subdued ap plause and laughter led Seabury at one point to remark to the mayor that he seemed to have "an appreci ative aucuence.' "I don't have to comb here to get an appreciative audience," Walker re plied, and there was more laughter. Senator John J. McNaboe shouted Seabury had had an appreciative audlenco all through the hearing. He added that Seabury had "admitted communists and reds" to the hearing room. After a brief recess a violent argu ment arose between Seabury and the mayor in the course of which the mayor wagged his finger at Seabury and shouted: "Remember I am still the mayor of Now Yorkl" There was on uproar, in which i Senator McNaboe said addressing the mayor: "Ho'U be sorry he ever called you " Somo one yelled: "Thank heaven you are herd" "In spile of all these statements, I'm glad to see you herd," Seabury said. "Judgo, I'm glad to bo here," Wal ker replied. "It's been a pleasure deferred for four years." PORTLAND CASH PORTLAND, ore., May 25 (P) Cash wheat: Big Bend bluestem 71c. - Soft whito eiijc. .

Freddie Steele Given Decision In Portland Go PORTLAND, Ore., May 25 (&) Freddie Steele, Tacoma's "boy won der," took a close six round decision over Frank ie Stetson, San Francisco hero last night. Steele shook the California n with smashing left hooks. In the second round one of these blows cracked Stetson on the chin and as Steele made ready to repeat, Stetson went to his knees to protect himself. Stetson confined most of his work to clinching and In-flght-ing, at which he excelled. i Steele weighed 147 pounds, Stetson 143. . Handy Andy Bundy and Abie Israel both scored knockouts In the other two six rounders. Bundy dropped Sid' Torres, Los Angeles Filipino twice in tho first round with his dynamite right. Torres was on the floor again in the second with the bell saving him. Referee Oliver stopped it in the fifth to save Torres from need less punishment. Bundy Injured both hands in the first round pound ing at Torres' head. Young Furrel, another Filipino, lasted, three rounds against Israel. He went down three times In the first round from left hooks, made a good comeback in the second, but after Israel dropped him the third timo in the third, the referee called a halt. Mickey Barker and Whitey Neal gave another four-round slap bang exhibition in the best bout of the evening. It was a draw.
