Thus spoke Harry H. Plncdus, lead ing bear leader in the hop uasket and a member of the trade that Is wellvposted on hop events. "I do not think that ths association w'ill aver be a success for the reason that no business man will tie himself up for five years without re course. It's not good business. If the association tied the crops up for ons year it would not be so bsd. I believe the association could be a success If it csn get growers to plow up a third of; tne acreage ana Keep tne proauction down. It would also be useful in the buying of supplies. I would Join the as sociation myself if that was what It In tended doing, but as matters stand the man who has 100 acres has no more say over the affairs of the organisation than the one who has three acrea.

Northern Paclflo waa about the only one of ths leaders thst waa abls to hold its head above water during today's trading and it closed the (lay with a rain of nearly 2H points over the final bid flrurea of yesterday. To account for this sharp advanoe in the face of sharp losses in other issuer many tne ories were advancsd by tradera. An other Story of melon-cutting is going the rounas. Conditions In the money market were moat favorable today for a strong un dertone but this did not hold prices from melting away.
