TIIE 3IORXIXG OREGOXIAX, FRIDAY, APRIL 28, 1922 24 DEFICIT OF 5108,649. : CONFRONTS COUNTY Conference of Officials Has but Little Success. AUTO TAG FUND WANTED rommissioner Holinan Endeavors to Stave Off Necessity for Special Tax Lvy. Efforts by Rufus C. Holraan. ex- chairman of the board of county commissioners, to find some way to make the conditions of county fi nances appear rosier and the neces 6ity for a special tar levy more re mote, met with little success yester day. An informal conference with the secretary of the tax supervision and conservation commission, county treasurer and others led to nothing definite. As a last resort, Mr. Holman re quested another opinion from the dis trict attorney's offiee as to the pos sibility of transferrins money from the' motor vehicle license fund to the general fund. Some time ago District Attorney Myers told the board of county commissioners that such a transfer would be illegal, but Mr. Holman is requesting a further search into the law. Mr. Holman Acts Alone. As he was chairman of the board last year and took to himself most of the responsibility for preparing the 1922 budget last December and most of the credit for apparent economies Mr. Holman is digging Into the present financial crisis with out conferring with his fellow-commissioners. Neither Chairman En deen nor Commissioner Hoyt was consulted in yesterday's conference. Should every cent now in the coun ty treasury be paid out on outstand ing county warrants there still will remain a deficit in the county treas ury of $106,640.74, which will in crease by leaps and bounds until a part of it is retired through the col lection of the second installment of taxes next October. Coanty Income Lew. If the district attorney discovers on second investigation that the $297,977.31 now in the motor license fund can be transferred to the gen eral fund, all outstanding indebted ness could be paid off with a balance on hand of J173.327.57, which might keep the county off a warrant basis for ten days or so, certainly not much longer. With more than $9000 al ready paid out this year in interest on held-up warrants, indications are that the $20,000 record in interest paid last year because of flimsy financing will be greatly exceeded In 1922. Should, by a more or less super human effort, all debts be paid up by May 1, the county will find itself in the unhealthy position of facing a period in which the income will suffice to take care of but a very small per cent of the county's ex penses. Instead of the millions of dollars recently collected on first in stallments of county taxes being Available to meet current and future dounty expenses, as intended, they must be used to retire past in debtedness. Statement Is Prepared. question which arises when the suggestion is made to "rob Peter to &Ay Paul," by taking the license fund to pay general fund expenses, is what fund will be used to retire road bonds na do such like service as was per formed by the motor fund last year. A statement of county finances, prepared by County Treasurer Lewis fir Mr. Holman when the latter de manded to know why it might be Iiecessary to levy a tax to meet the deficit, which brings figures down to yesterday morning, follows: April 1. balance on hand $ 325.11 Received from taxes and other jources 710.204.03 Received from state fund 294.000.00 Total $1,013,529.14 raid on county warrants 337.9S8.24 Paid on interest on warrants.. 3.340.14 Transferred to state fund 346.301.35 Transferred to elementary school fund 20.455.01 Total ( 70S.2S4.74 Balance . 305,244.40 Warrants outstanding April 2b. 122 405.34S.6S Warrants called and not pre sented 6,545.46 Total cutstanding warrants ! 411,894.14 Balance $ 305.244.40 Deficit $ 106.649.74 FISHING OUTLOOK BETTER STREAMS ARK WARMER, TROUT ARE BITING WELIi.

The revival of the lumber Industry has made the Coos bay district prosperous, and there is no unemployment problem there, according to B. K. Chandler, vice president of the First National bank of Marshfield, who waa in Portland yester day. Several of the mills are running overtime to turn out orders, Mr. Chandler said, and new orders are pouring in. There is plenty of money in Marshfield to meet all demands and the entire country around Coos Bay is experiencing a period or optimism Droug-nt on by tna revival of industry. In view of the fact that he was once an employe of the Bank of California, a trip to Portland is pleasant for Thomas M. Paterson, who represents the Equitable Trust company of New York on the Pa cific coast. When Mr. Paterson left here several years ago he became vice-president of the Mercantile Trust company of San Francisco. This position he held for some time and then assumed the posi tion he now holds. He spent yesterday visiting witn oia menas in tnis city.

Snider, cashier of the Paisley Na tional bank at Paisley, Or., spent yester day in Portland and conferred with offi cials of the Northwestern National bank.

TANNERS LOOK FOR BETTER DEMAND Improved Leather Trade Would Quickly Help Hides. PACKERS' SALES FALL OFF Prices Jfot Yet Established on April Take-Off Country Hide Business Spotty. Quieter conditions prevail agrain In the hide markit Prices ari unchanged locally and there -m not hint to indicate any very early Improvement in the situation. Following the free movement in packer hides in the east a fortnight ago busi ness 'has been on a smaller scale. A feel ing persists In the eastern trade, however. that the market Is in better condition, as the packers are. now well sold up. "an ners concede that any decided activity in leather would be at once reflected in the hide markjt by pronounced strength. As yet, no prices have teen established on April hides, and tanners are disinclined to pay any advance ov-r recent quotations for earlier salting, ar-twithstanding the somewhat improved quality of present kill. In country hides, patent leather tanners continue in the market for best -quality ex tremes, but demand, on the wholi. Is spotty. Further breaks in calfskins are cal culated to prevent much chance of a further Increase on extremes, as the call for these has centered on best-quality stock from patent leather tanners. In the foreign hide division there is a continued active inquiry and demand for River Plate frigoriflco steers. Eastern tanners absorbed 24,000 of these at $40.25, Argentine gold, per 100 kilos, which Is fig ured equivalent to 16 He., c and f, per pound in be United states. The situation in dry sides remains very quiet, with no trading of any account passing in com mon varieties of Latin-Americans. River Plate dry hides are out of season, but. Irrespective of this, domestic tanners have failed to show interest in- these for a long period. WHEAT FIRMER BUT TRADE QUIET Bids Are Advanced One Cent at Mer chants' Exchange The wheat market was firmer yesterday but still quiet. Exporters reported no for eign business worked and the demand for milling grades was inactive. Club held around fl.26 and hard winter at $1.28. Bids were 1 cent higher at the Merchants Ex change. The Chicago wire to1' the Gray-Rosen- baum Grain company follows: "Better class of buying on break respon sible for active short covering . toward close. Soutnwestern crop reports generally favorable, but foreign crop reports not favorable. Better export demand. Senti ment less fr earish. Receipts lighter than last year, hut larger than last week, and domestic demand disappointing. "Would buy only on breaks." At Liverpool, May wheat closed ld Iewer at lis 8d, July, 2d lower at lis ., and September 2d lower. Corn closed 2d lower. Wheat opened 1 cent lower at Buenos Aires at $1.31! for May and f 1.34 ft for June. May corn was down cent at 72 cents and June was ft cent lower. May flax was 4 cents lower at $1.91. The Northwestern Miller says: "The flour market is as dull as it possibly could be. Millers stocks are abnormally "ight and it seems to be only a question of time when buyers must come into the market to replenish." Le count wired from Salina, Kan. : Wheat in this territory is about perfect; has made good growth.',' Argentine shipments estimated: Wheat 3,700,000 bushels; corn, 400,000 bushels; oats, 140,000 bushels.

There has been some accumulation of cube butter because of the reduced local demand, but shipping orders up to the present have been sufficient to absorb the surplus, and this has held the market steady. Eggs were also steady, with .an active demand for storing account. Buyers took in current receipts at 19 cents and paid 22 cents for henneries. There has been a moderate increase in poultry receipts in the past two days, but prices are still fairly firm. Reports from some districts are that the hens are dis posed to set, which would indicate that the laying season may be shorter than expected. Wheat Shipments Lighter.

CHICAGO. April 2T. "Wheat went up ward in price today, helped by word of active export- demand. The market fin ished ansettled at a net gain of c to lc with May f 1.41ft and July $1.26 1.26i4. Corn closed c to lc higher, oats up ftc to lc and provisions down 5c to 50c. Foreign purchasing of wheat was esti mated at 1,500,000 bushels, including both old crop whoat and new. It was said Germany was in tha market and paying the best premiums of the season. Aside from the bullish effect of export business, it was evident many traders had taken tha position that t. rally was due after the severe decline the last two days. The opening here was higher, aided by com parative strength of Liverpool quotations, but profit-taking sales, together with fa vorable crop Reports from the southwest, caused the market to drop soon to the lowest level touched of late, $1.38 for May delivery. , Houses with seaboard connections led the- wheat buying on the irregular pmce advance which followed, ana wnicn snowea its chief energy near the end of the day. Gossip was current that longs were char-terina- vessel space and otherwise prepar ing to take care of wheat that will be delivered to them next week. On the other hand, milling demand for wheat was reported as slow and flour prices lower. Seaboard messages telling of 500,000 bushels of corn taken for Europe tended to lift the price of corn and of oats as well Provisions were weak: in Hne with hog values. The Chicago grain letter received yester day by the Overbeck & Cooke company of Portland follows: "Wheat Trade was a mixed character with sentiment seemingly more evenly divided because of numerous, conflicting developments. The Liverpool market was lower and foreign advices generally had a more bearish tone than recently, but the fact that a good-sized export business was being done at the seaboard had a tendency to restrain selling pressure, A substantial part of the buying was new-crop winters. The tone of outside cash markets was slow at lower prices. Contrary to all predic tions flour trade has failed to revive and last week was said to be the worst of the season. The crop outlook is far more promising in the southwest and with better weather it is expected that marketing of old wheat will Increase materially. We see no reason for expecting sustained ad vances at this time. "Corn Held relatively firm within a narrow range, cash interests being the most conspicuous sellers, while the buying was mainly by shorts. The relative strength of the cash market and the fact that con tract grades have gone to 1 cent premium over the May had much to do with the buying. The seaboard reported export sales of 500,000 bushels and said total business for the day might be larger. Coun try offerings to arrive are moderate, but it is certain that cash pressure will be greatly augmented after the completion of spring work. ' "Oats Trade was small and utterly de void of feature with the net price change for the day inconsequential. "Rye Further liquidation of long con tracts satisfied the demand from the east. Some export business was done. Cash rye nominally steady at 1 cent under May bid for No. 2 on track. Leading futures ranged aa follows: "WHEAT. Onen. HiKh. Low. Close.
