THE 3IOTlXrNG OREGOXIAX. SATTJEDAT, JTJXE 30, 1917. HOP filEfl HOPEFUL Growers Believe Their Product Will Be Used. HALF CROP IS BEING GROWN Encouraged Over Prospect of Favor able Action by Congress, but High Prices Are Xot to Be Expected. Ottgoix top growers are more encouraged over the prospect of Congressional legisla tion that will allow the hop industry to survive, but until the matter is definitely settled there Is no chance of any business developing- in the market. Trade has been at a complete standstill for the past fort Bight. In the meantime the growers of Oregon are Industriously cultivating a half crop, and are hoping to come out at least even In the marketing of it, trusting to more profitable seasons after the war Is over. It Is likely Oregon will have 60,000 bales this year. In California there has not been much reduction In acreage, and 100,000 bales is the estimated production there. Washington Is figured at 23,000 to 30.000 bales, and New York will have Its usual crop. There Is a carry-over stock on this Coast of some 50.000 bales. Including about 10.000 bales of English owned hops, so a normal supply of hops will await the trade mm mo new season opens. It Is not believed there is a very large nil iur several montns. .tieer pro- uucnon nas Kept up nearly to the usual mark, and If the Government permits the brewer to . continue the making of beer t.ii(3i e snouia oe a good demand for new nop as soon as the 1917 crop Is available. There Is not much prospect, however, for export business, so prices are likely to re main at a moderate leveL Although there has been much asritation In this country to stop the manufacture of beer, as a war measure. It is learned that a contrary policy has been adopted in Eng land, w tie re Parliament, at the request of the munition manufacturers, has authorized the brewers to Increase their production for the year 35 per cent. EGO STORAGE HOLDINGS LARGER Slight Increase In Government Figures Com pared With Year Ago. oia storage holdings of eggs in the .Northwest on June 15, according to Gov eminent iigures, were 60.303 cases, against ou.jo cases on the same date last year. for the United States as a whole hold ings of eggs in storage were reported greater on June 15 than at any correspond ing time last season, for the first time since storage reports on eggs were begun In Au gust. 1016. On September 1, 1916, hold ings reported by 185 houses were 19.2 per cent less than on September 1, 1915. On March 1, at the end of the season, they were BG.d per cent less than on March 1 last year.

In spite of the low stocks on hand on September 1, 1916, the rates of withdrawals were proportionately larger during all ot the Winter months than they were during the corresponding period of the previous season. During January, 1917, for example, stocks on hand January 1 decreased 83.7 per cent, whereas during the same month last year the percentage of decrease was 1 only 66,7 per cent, though a larger num ber of cases of eggs were withdrawn last year than during January, 1917. During March, April and May and the first two weeks In June, the rate at which stocks of eggs have been placed in storage has been proportionately larger than dur ing the same months last year, though the actual number of cases placed In storage was larger during March and April. Dur ing May, 1916. 2,140.018 cases were placed in storage In 236 houses, whereas 2.621.856 cases were reported placed tn storage dur ing May this year in 323 storages.

The total holdings on June 15 were reported by 338 storages as 0,752,225 cases, 477,609 cases more than the holdings reported by 252 storages Au gust 1. 1916, the date of the maximum hold ings of last season. DECUXE IN RESERVE BUTTER StTFTXY Holdings In TJnited States 17.8 Per Cent Less Than Year Ago. Butter In storage In the Northwest on June 15, as reported by the Office of Mar kets, amounted to 423,135 pounds, against 673,503 pounds on the same date last year. Total butter holdings In cold storage In the United States on June 15, as reported by 284 houses. were 23.057.122 pounds. Holdings reported by 214 storages show 4,429,527 . pounds or 17.3 per cent less than reported by the same firms last year. During the period June 1 to June 15 hold Ings In 254 storages Increased 14,074.198 pounds, 4.2S8.883 pounds less than the in crease during the corresponding period last year. From September 1, 1916, to April 1, 1917, stocks of butter In storage ranged from 3.0 per cent to 18.4 per cent less than for the corresponding months the preceding year. On April 1. 1917., 6.022,216 pounds were re ported by 214 storages, which was 2.676.499 pounds, or 80 per cent more than the same storages reported on April 1, 1916. The larger part of the Increase of 2,676,499 pounds reported April 1, 1917. was held in the New England. Middle Atlantic and North Central, East sections. In which are located respectively the cities of Boston, New York and Chicago. By May 1, however, storage holdings of butter In these three sec tions had decreased approximately 3,500,000 pounds. STRAWBERRY SEASON IS NEARLY OVER Home Canners Who Ielayed Buying Most Substitute Other Fruit. Strawberries were firmer yesterday, with flarks bringing- $1.752 and other kinds $1.25(31.73. according to quality. The season for local fruit Is almost over and home canners are Just awakening to this fact. As this Is a year when the making of provision for the future Is -an Important matter. It is unfortunate that home providers should have let the opportunity to put away & needed supply of berries slip by them. They should also realize that the apricot canning season !s now on and prices are probably as low as they will be. The season Is a short one for all kinds of fruit and It will not pay to delay home preserving in expectation of lower prices later. There was a fair trade In cantaloupes at the prices announced on the preceding day. Standards in the city trade sold at $2.50 and ponies at $2.25. Harder shrpping stock was 0 cents more. Flats sold at $1.50 and jumbos were quoted at $3.25. The street was almost bare of new pota toes, but a car is due from California today. A few Oregon new potatoes have arrived. MAXIMUM WOOL PRICES LOOKED FOR Mach Speculation In Eastern Trade as to Attitude of Government. BOSTON, June 29. The Commercial Bul letin will say tomorrow: Business in the Boston wool market during the past week has bea quiet, with sales. including au grades. at generally firm prices. The decision of the Federal Government to request the ells, waste and shoddy trades to arrange for maximum prices for their respective products has caused no tittle spec ulation as to the attitude of the Govern ment on wool. Operations in the Wes have continued steadily at strengthening prices. Manufac turers report little change, with early light weight openings for next Spring and Sum mer at very good prices.

LOSSES ARE MADE UP Sharp Gains in Steel Issues, Coppers and Shippingo Russian Rubles, at Xew Low Price Premium on Liberty Bonds. NEW YORK, June 29. Further unsettle- ment in speculative conditions characterized the first half of today's dull and profes- lonai traaing. with sharn and very sub stantial rallies before the close. Motor shares, utilities, and many minor specialties represented the chief elements of weakness, and rails also Rave way mod erately in the absence of developments re garding the freight rate situation. United States Steel made an extreme ad vance of 2y points from its minimum ot 28 and closed virtually at the top with a net gain of a point. Independent steels and related shares rebounded from their early reversals of 2 to 3 points with pronounced trength In Crucible and Lackawanna, Bald win Locomotive and Republic Iron. Coppers, shippings and the more volatile specialties were responsive to relaxed pres sure, and motors in some instances made up the greater part of their severe looses. Losses in rails ranged from 2, points In Delaware & Hudson to a point or more In Union Pacific and Southern Pacific pre ferred. Recoveries in this group were nom inal. Total sales. 6 1 0.000 shares. A new low price of 22 H for rubles re flected the mixed news regarding Russian affairs. Francs shaded a trifle, but other remittances were unaltered. Transfer of about- $6,700,000 gold to San Francisco en route to J a Dan excited little attention. Bonds were Irregular with a sale oi no- ertv Hi at the new Dremlum of 100 6-10, Total sales, par value, $2,635,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS.

TRUCK DRIVERS NEEDED Plans for Equipping Ambulance Units Dropped for Time. Conditions in France which make it Impossible to get ambulance bodies built there rapidly and other conditions which make drivers for supply trucks more In demand than ambulance driv- , have caused an alteration of the plans of the organization which has raised money for ambulances for the American field service in France. Contributions of $35,000 were made by Portland people recently for am bulances and many men enlisted for service as ambulance drivers. The change In plans has caused J. F, Ewlng-. who assisted in the Portland campaign, to announce that those who contributed and are not willing to have their money applied to other and more pressing war needs may have It refunded.

MANAGER PLAN STICKS EDrCATORS' SECRETARY TALKS OX MUNICIPAL GOTERXHGXT, System Once Adopted Is Rarely Gives Is, Says Speaker at City Club Lssckron. "The city managerial system is the only form of municipal government which, once adopted, has been adhered to practically without a set-back." said D. W. Springer, of Ann Arbor. Mich., secretary of the National Education Association, addressing the City Club at the Benson Hotel yesterday. air. ijprlnger was one of those active In the campaign conducted in an effort to establish this form of government In Ann Arbor. He said that Nashville is the only one In 60 cities that, having adopted the system, has thrown it aside, and pointed out that the rejec tion in Nashville was a protest against ring of corrupt politicians, not a denial of the efficacy of the system. Outlining the plan of the charter proposed for Ann Arbor, he said that it ls analogous to the handling of h. corporation, the officials holding office indefinitely at will of the electors, thus assuring the greatest stimulus for effi ciency in handling the government. Mr. Springer in the course of his talk expressed the opinion that the civil service system should be eliminated from city government in the Interest of increased efficiency. He declared that while the civil service idea was excellent as a theory and was inaugu rated to destroy the pernicious 'spoils system, it has completed its usefulness and has now become a drag on effi cient administration.
