Newspaper Page TextTHE MORNING OREGONIAN, THURSDAY, "JUNE 9. 1921 -'1 DECLINE WORLD WOOL WlIPTli Seventy Per Cent of Pre-War Basis Is Estimated. quality to fill shipping orders. No straight carloads were sent out, but the shipments north aggregate several cars. Green peas were plentiful and sold lower, tacal stock was quoted at HVs cents and peas from The Dalles brought 7 8 cents. PRODUCTION 93 PER CENT Situation Hinges on Ability or Con tinental Europe to Resume ormal Cse of Wool. The world wool production la on a 93 )xr cnt prewar basts, while the world orummption Is about 70 per cent of the pre-war normal, according; to data com piled by the United States bureau of mar kets, Based on an estimate of mill con sumption for 1020 the demand of Europe Tor wool from outside sources is not much abov? oue-half that of pre-war years. The recovery of world consumption Is clearly the most important factor In the Imme diate future. The whole wool situation hinges on the recovery of buying; power and consumption in continental Europe. In pre-war times western and northern Europe produced yearly about 400.000,000 pounds and Imported about 1.600,000,000 pounds, a total of 2,000.000.000 pounds Europe's present rate of consumption is about 1. -'"'0 000.000 pounds, of which Eu rope itself will produce nearly 380,000,000 pounds. This rate of consumption reduces the present demands for wool from outside sources to about 870,000,000 pounds. 0 course, a great vacuum exists in Europe for woolen goods, and there Is no doubt that a quick recovery in buying power would create a large demand for wool. However, there Is some evidence that Europe has probably dropped to a new consuming level somewhat below pre-war consumption. No accurate data as to world stocks of wool are available for a given time eitber In the pre-war period or at papaenL It has been known, however, for the past two years that wool ittocks were more than normal. "While the bureau of markets fully realizes the danger of making an estimate where accurate statistics are not available, yet there are certain main facti In the general situation that can be se down and summarized. , in the southern hemisphere there ap pears to be on band practically the equlv alent of the last clip, or about 1500.000.000 pounds. This clip was made from Octo ber to December, 1020, but due to the stag Bant market shipments to. Europe have been relatively small. Old stocks on ban appear to offset exports of new wool up to May 1. The estimate on European stocks, except the British government old stocks, Is the least reliable figure ond Is only ap proximate. Old wool in the United States Includes about 225.000,000 pounds of foreign wool Imported from January 1 to May 9. Summing up the estimates, the world supply in sight on May 1 is roughly ai follows. FARMERS' WHEAT OFFERINGS CEjSE Few Hare Grain Left to Sell Bids on Steady Basis. - The wheat market was steady yester day. There was some Inquiry and bids were sent Into the country but farmers' offerings were light and few of them have wheat left to sell. At the Merchants' Vrrhanp. hal vtill. via. i n - h u i hiir I soft white and club bids were 1 cent higher. The coarse grain market was very dull. Oats and corn were unchanged. Advices from Minneapolis were that mil lers quote the leading brands of flour 25 cents a barrel lower. Rye flour de clined 20 to 40 cents a barrel. Terminal receipts, in cars, were re ported by the Merchants' Exchange as fol lows: V "Wheat Barley Flour Oats Hay Wednesday ..118 4 ft 1 1 Ypar ago 10 ... . 3 15 Se'n to dte. 1920S 22 IrtflS tS 2411 Tear ago 8910 liii 3U5T 657 Tacoma Tuesday 19 .... 2 ... ....

Pastures are in good condition, and Indications are that flush production Is close at hand, says the weekly produce review of Swift & Co. of, Chicago. Poultry Is moving from the farms quite freely, indicating . that the hens have about "laid themselves out." As a conse quence markets are on a lower level. Egg receipts have shown further de crease, due to the warm weather and to the fact that the end of the laying season is in sight. Too much care cannot be given to the marketing of eggs frequently during the warm weather. MONEY MARKET RELAXES EFFECT OFFSET BY. BREAK IX FOREIGN EXCILWGE. Stocks Trend Irregular With Stand ard Issues Under Pressure in Later Dealings. rEW YORK, June 8. Relaxed money rates and recurrent weakness in foreign exchange overshadowede today's stock op ations. Call loans opened at 7 per cent, but before midday eased to 6S4. the lowest in many weeks. Time rates were unchanged, dui DroKers reported more liberal offer ings, which extended to bank acceptances ana mercantile paper. Explanation was lacking for the further collapse or International remittances, which amounted to 6 cents in the pound-ster-ling and 10 to 43 points In French, Bel gium, Italian, Swiss, Spanish and Dutch bills. Renewed sales of sterling in Lon- aon and fans by German Interests, spec ulatlve pressure at this center and the supreme council's delay in meeting were among reasons assigned for the reaction. In banking circles the engrossing topic was the announcement of the treasury de partment's offering of some 1500,000.000 short-term notes to sustain government securities. Stocks were irregular and hesitant, the session being marked by reactions and re coveries. Standard issues were under great pressure in the later dealings, the lower money rate exerting little Influence. Sales were 5,.i,000 shares. Dealings In bonds again were fairlv dl versified, with many cross currents. There was early selling of liberty issues, nresum- ably because of the treasury offering, but mat group made up part of Its loss, other domestics were irregular and Mexican gov. ernment 5s lost 1 i per cent. Total sales, par value, $14,375,1)00.

This question is frequently .sked. In this connection It Is well to note that as a rule highly civilized nations use more clothing than Is actually necea- .-ary to keep warm and fairly well clothed. The quantity of clothing can be much reduced under necessity without experl encing hardship and it Is probable that urope, due to necessity, has dropped to a lower consuming level than the pre-war normal. If this is true the world produc tion of wool and cotton must be adjusted accordingly. If it is to be kept on a prof Itable basts. WINTER WHEAT CONDITION IS FINE IFprinr Wheat Also Doing Well In Oregon. Barley Is Ripening. The week was the warmest of the sea son thus far. daytime temperatures of 90 degrees or higher occurring in the warmer districts, says the Oregon weekly crop summary of the weather bureau.

Considerable areas along the Co lumbta river are under water, and the river was still rising as the week closed. Heading of winter wheat is becoming more general. The crop suffered some local Injury from high temperature and lack of moisture, and there is local com plaint of lodging, but th condition Is generally good to excellent.

CHICAGO, June 8. Wheat showed sn upward slant today, chiefly on account of rains which pointed to a delay in th harvest of the winter crop. Closing quota tions were firm at the same as yester day's finish to 2c higher, with July SI. 32 to $1.32 and September $1.16 to $1.11 Corn lost 0 to lo and oats c to c In provisions, the outcome was unchanged LU 1 -no nigiier. Kansas and southern Indiana were chief ly the subject of misgivings among wheat traders, who feared a wet harvest, con sidtrable buying of July took place as 1 consequence. The general run of crop ad vices, however, appeared to be optimistic. and September was, therefore, much less in demand than July. Bulls were Handi capped also by stowness of export call and by a r.ew break in foreign exchange. The government figures came subsequent to the close, and as generally had been ex pected, proved bullish, though not to such a radical extent as the latest private fore casts would Imply. Corn and oats were lacking in aggres sive support. Provisions hardened a little In line with hogs and as a result of some export buying. The Chicago market letter received yes terday by the Overbeck & Cooke company of Portland said: Wheat Trade was light pending publl cation of the government report, but tin tone was strong and bearish arguments such as the extreme weakness in foreign exchange and advices from the seaboard to the effect that exporters were not buy ing. A new factor was injected into the situation in the form of a wet harvest scare. General rains occurred in the south west and in parts of the Ohio valley where wheat harvesting was Just getting under way. This menace would undoubtedly mean light receipta during the month of July, which would create tightness in that position, as stocks in Chicago are very small and likely to decrease further within the next two weeks. The forecast is for continued unsettled weather with probsble showers over- the belt. The government report today will have much to do with shaping the course , of prices for the imme diate future and if it. in any way, con firms private estimates, a higher market would be the resulL Corn Persistent selling by cash inter ests overwhelmed buying power snd gave the market Independent weakness. The cash article was even weaker than the futures with prices sbout 1 cents lower for con tract grades snd as much as 4 cents down for sample grades. Shipping sales given at 481,000, a large part of which went to exporters and it was intimated that addi tional business was being done. Country offerings to arrive . were reported much smaller on account of the decline. Crop uncertainties will then enter the situation and very likely stimulate buying. Oats The weakness in corn restrained buying of oats futures and prices weakened under pressure of selling by cash houses and leading elevator interests. Receipts were smaller and the cash market reia tlvely firm. Crop reports are generally unfavorable and will probably have quite an influence on prices coincident with any improvement in the cash demand Rye This market was firm on buying of September by seaboard interests. Cash rye was relatively steady with No. track 15 cents over July bid. Leading prices ranged as follows: WHEAT. Open. High. Low. July... $ 1.29 $ 1.82 $ 1.29 Sept....
