With East Strong.
ply la expected. There mere fair receipts
of other dressed poultry which also mt
with ready sale, areeae bringing 82 35
cents and ducks 80 cents. Live poultry
also sold better than usual so close to
fThHntmas
j There was a food Inquiry for country
dressed meats and pork was higher at
12 cents. Veal was unchanged.
The cube butter market was firm with
a short ace of top grade stock. Extras
again sold at 42 cents.
No change was made In the general
selling price of eggs, though some buyers
were paying as high as 40 cents to coun
try shippers. The market was firm, but it
was the opinion that any advance now
coutd be for only a day or two and that
a f ter Christmas a decline would, be In-evltable.
LITTLE GRAIN ON MARKET
Purcliasfng for Russian Relief Xot
Likely to Affect Wheat or
Hour Situation Here.
The passage of the $20,000,000 Kussian
relief bill Is not expected to have much
effect on the movement of grain here, av
It is understood, the purchases will be con
fined largely to corn. According to word
received yesterday, Secretary Hoover will
begin buying corn In the middle west Fri
day. The government will also take a
quantity of flour for shipment to the Rus
iiians. A cheap grade of flour Is specified,
which can be bought lower In the east
than on the Pacific coast.
The local wheat market was firm and
rilsher. December and January bids were
ramod 1 to 2 cents and February wheat
1 to 8 cents.
No oats or barley bids were posted. No.
J corn for February shipment and No. 3
corn for January shipment were 50 cents
fclfrher.
The wheat advance followed the up
ward trend of the eastern markets, which
were affected by weather condition and the
prospect of buying this week for Russian
relief. On the weather situation the Price
Current said: "Recent precipitation has ap
parently benefited the wheat condition in
Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma, and do
pot believe the dropth damage In tlie.
Slates Is as grrat as generally reported."
The Liverpool wheat market closed un
changed.
Jlradstreet's reports the world's visible
wheat decrease at 4,420,000 bushel and
the corn increa.se at 1.187,000 bushel.
Terminal receipts. In cars, were reported
by the Merchants' Exchange as follows:
Wheat, riariey. Flour. Oats. Hay

The Merchants' Exchange association
will hold no eeaison on .Friday. This ac
tion was decided on out of respect to the
memory of R. W. Hastings, who died at
his home In this city Tuesday night,, Mr.
Hastings was one of the best-known .men
in the grain trade of Portland, where be
had resided for many years. He was the
local manager of H. W. Collins, grain

wool Hirri.Y is not excessive
Surplus Will Br Worked Off In Another
Twelve Months.
There is no excessive over-supply of
wool tn the world, according to a Bradford
expert, who declares that production Is
till below requirements. He says:
"There la no extraordinary surplus in
any other part of the world; and taking it
all in all. there la a great potential de
mand for wool clothing In Kurope which
must make itr Influence felt as conditions
approach stability. Then attain, stocks of
wool in the handu of the trade are light
In the United Kingdom, crobrd stock!
have been much reduced, and fine wool
stocks are extremely email. France la car
rying llsht storks; Oe.rmany haa bought
very heavily this year, hut she had a
great deal of leeway to make up, and her
sticks. In relation to orders In hand, can
not be considered to be excessive when
compared with the pre-war standard. In
the United Htates, fine wools are rather
scares, though atocka. In the aggregate
are fairly heavy. In the aggregate, It cat
certainly be aald that trade stocks are
not la excess of pre-war atandard; and la
fine woola, they axe certainly small.
"Summing up. It can safe'y be said that
Bawra stocks of merino woola no longer
constitute a surplus worthy of the name,
but rather represent wool required to com
pensate for light trade stocks and for a
production which, although better than
last aeason, la atlll below requirements
Obviously, toward the end of the next 12
niontha the trade will be up against the
normal position In which a year's con
sumption has to be met from a year's
clip without tha help of excess stocks;
and unless there Is any marked turnover
of demand from fine to medium woola, the
statistical position of merinos will bs a
gitrong one."
GRAIN FEEDING BY DAIRYMEN
Larger Return Than by Selling Cereals
Direct.
Tha volume of cream delivered to cream
eries during the week haa continued to
how an Increase over the same week last
year. It Is generally recognized that In
most territories, at present, grain can be
fed for milk production and give a larger
return than if disposed of direct, saya the
weekly produce review of Swift & Co., of
Chicago.
Increased butter receipts have caused
a slight decline in market values, with
corresponding lower prices prevailing for
butterfat, but even at preaent prlcea the
comparlaon on butterfat prices is still fav
orable. There haa been a continuous heavy
movement of poultry during the week, but
prlcea are generally unchanged.
Continued open weather baa resulted
In further Increases In the supply of fresh
eggs and as there la still a large quantity
ct egga In storage, it has resulted in some
what lower prices, both In buying and Belling.
STORAGE W1THDRATVAUS LIGHTER

NEW YORK. Dec. 21. More liquidation
to establish income tax payments, a, tem
porary flurry in money rates and addi
tional cuts in price of commodities,
chiefly oils and sugars, were factora In
today's reactlonaiy stock market.
Conditions in the steel and iron Indus
try alao Invited selling of those issues.
Weekly trade reviews stressed the recent
slackening of demand at Pittsburg and
other centers, most independent pro
ducers running at about 35 per cent ca
pacity. Reports from Detroit and other
automobile manufacturing dlatricts were
similar.
The 6 per cent opening rate for call
loans proved to be of short duration, funds
being freely supplied at 6H per cent In
the open market by noon. As low aa 5
per cent was offered In private transac
tions, that rate also applying to short
time accommodations.
A few stocks, especially equipments,
were strenrthenerl bv railroad orders, but
I most leaders among the oils, steels, mo
i tors, coppers and food and chemlcala spe
cialties eased one to three points, lowest
quotation being made In the active final
hour. Si n were 0..0.000 shares.
Cumulative signs that the transportation
companies are coming Into the money
market were noted in the proposed fi
nancing of New York Central, Louisville
& Nashville and a number of the less
prominent western and southwestern
roads.
Private cables suggesting a deadlock In
the European economic situation were re
flected in the Irregular tone of foreign ex
changes. Sterling eased only slightiy,
but all other quotations were appreciably
lower, the German rate, however, holding
steady.
The bond market was subjected to fur
ther realizing, liberty and other war flo
tations adding to yesterday's decline. Re
action in junior railroad bonds were trace
able to prospective financial demands.
Forgeln issues, with few exceptions, also
eased. Total sales, par value, $18,275,000.

Market Stimulated by Unfavorable
Crop Report, Prtospect of Im
mediate Relief Purchasing:.
CHICAGO. Dec. 21. Unfavorable crop
conditions In the southwest and prospects
of immediate government purchasing for
Kussian relief gave grain a decided lift
today. Wheat finished strong, 1 to 2
cents net higher, with May $1.16 to
$1.16, and July $1.05 to $1.05. Corn
gained 1 to 1 cents and oata c
to 8 c. Provisions closed unchanged to
7 cents up.
After a hesitant start, wheat prices made
a ready response to Increased buying,
which appeared to be due chieXly at first
to cold weather and to fears that lack
of snow protection in the southwest might
bring about crop damage. Some buying
was a'.so ascribed to closing of spreads
between Chicago and Winnipeg and to
.harp falling off in the volume of receipts
both southwest and northwest. The mar
ket received its chief upward Impetus,
however. In the last hour when the at
tention of traders turned to reports that
uselan relief buying would be commenc-d
Friday and would include wheat and other
g. a n. On the ensuing advance shorts
n-.irrled to cover and a big cash house
unughl December wheat on quite an ex
tensive scale. Despite one lively setback
the market closed at the day's top.
Corn and oats ascended with wheat, corn
being bulllshiy affected by Rueaian relief
were firm, owing In the main
to higher quota'ions on hogs.
The Chicago grain letter received yes
terday by the Overbeck A Cooke company
of Portland follows:
Wheat Sentiment was bearish at the
outset, but after a small decline the mar
ket displayed more strength than seen In
some time. What little news there was
in circulation was of an Influential sort
in a bullish way. The most prominent of
the day's developments was the passing
by the senate of the Russian relief blil
and evidence of an improved flour situa
tion In the southwest. The latter change
was due, not so much to a big demand as
to Inability to secure good milling wheat,
as a result of which leading milling in
terests advanced flour prices. It Is very
likely that the movement of wheat is over
for the season and that the visible supply
will now begin to vanish. In our opinion
it will be impossible for the market to
ignore bullish conditions.
Corn Trade was without feature until
after midday, when the market developed
considerable activity and great strength.
There was only one item of news, but that
was sufficient. It was the announcement
by Hoover that the grain corporation will
begin Friday buying corn for Russian re
lief. We believe the Investor by making
purchases of futures will not only do good
in a money way, but will serve a useful
purpose.
Oats Fluctuations in . oats were dom
inated exclusively by other grains, with
the close at the best prices of the day.
The cash market was without feature or
change, receipts being small, but the de
mand rather inactive.
Ryf Trade was small and mainly in the
nature of spreading haaween wheat and
rye- at 26 cents discount. There was no
export business reported, but It Is expected
that considerable rye will be taken for
Russian relief when that buying starts.

Permanence
Cheap buildings are temporary,
and all "give way to permanent
structures as cities grow, it is no
longer a question of a few dollars'
additional expense for new build
ings, the main consideration being
to employ skill and materials to
create and erect structures that
shall be enduring;. Experience has
likewise developed the same senti
ment in the public mind in regard
to pavement; the best, namely,
Warrenite-Bitulithic, being gener
ally conceded as the cheapest in
the long run.
