STRONG PROTEST AGAINST CLOTHING MADE OF DIRTY RAGS
7 Edited by
Uyrhan IL Cohen
EG& STOCKS HEAVY
WITH STORAGE PLANTS
FULL OF SUPPLIES
Almost a Million More Cases Held in
Ice Houses Than Ever Before
; Price Far Above Other Seasons
. : storage Space .Views Conflicting,
That there are, greater supplies of
eggs held in cold storage plants of the
United States at this time, despite the
fact that values at this lime are higher
than ever before. Is asserted by govern-
ment interests.
On June 15 storage stoaks of the na
tion were placed at 7.013,824 cases of 30
-dozen each, with a tew storage plants
rot reporting. The total estimate with
these -f irrr.4 included would reach 7.012,
000 cases, or 849,000. cases more than
Were stored at the same time a year ago.
- Local egg trade conditions are ehow-
Ins. fto change for the day. Prices are
unchanged, and the movement to market
Is extremely heavy. The government
reports additional storage at Portland
plants although the plant managers
have asserted that no additional storage
room was available. This gives the Im
pression . to the trade that someone" Is
in error, and suggests a possible trick
to influence the market one way or the
other. , .
Quality continues to deteriorate In
countrr arrivals. '

Wool Demand Is
Very Liberal
Extreme - Record Prices Are Being
Secured for Oregon Fleece.
By Hymaa H. Cone a v
There Is a firmer tone in the wool
trade. This applies equally as well to
Willamette valley as to Eastern Oregon
offerings. . i
Reports Indicate that while most of
the small wool owtrvrs are quite 'willing
to accept prevailing value for their
fleece, holders of ; the larger clips are
not so keen to sell and are holding back
for more money, which many now be
lieve . they will secure.
Recent sales In ithis city toy the Co
lumbia Basin Wool Warehouse com
pany ranged from f 1.55 to $1.63 clean
basis for Eastern Oregon stock, whlph
means about 514255c a pound in the
grease. This range is the highest paid
in the local trade.
Sales of Willamette valley wools are
reported by the same company around
E7c a pound for i the average run of
stock from this section and the demand
from manufacturers is good at the
prices named.
Coast mills are somewhat adverse to
ths action of the government In order
ing for sale In Boston of 'remaining
stocks of Oregon -wool. Manufacturers
claim that this stock is needed here.

off, leaving the trade almost lifeless.

Gaining strength is shown Jn the
movement to protect the public against
the fraudulent label on cloth and cloth
ing by the passage of the proposed pure
fabric law.
Honest manufacturers everywhere are
flocking to the assistance of those who
are leading the movement not only to
protect the public against the fraudu
lent Sale of shoddy as pure virgin wool,
but to keep the sheep industry from go
ing to pieces by protecting: at the same
time the producers against the dirty
rag picker.
At the recent meeting of the Na
tional Sheep and Wool Bureau, the fol
lowing pointed resolution was adopted:
Whereas the production of virgin wool
nowhere near equals the people's needs;
Whereas the grossly Inadequate pro
duction of virgin wool Imposes great
hardship on the - people by depriving
them of a necessity of life and forces
the people to wear clothes made from
shoddy instead of virgin Wool, and for
ces the people to pay exorbitant prices
for th;se shoddy clothes ;
Whereas these hardships which result
from the serious shortage of virgin wool
also from the attendant, scarcity of
lamb and mutton tend to embitter the
laboring class, promote class hatred and
make the minds of even sane and sens
ible laborers susceptible to extreme and
dangerous doctrines ;
Whereas these facts make the protec
tion and promotion of sheep husbandry
a key problem that lies right at the
heart of the task of insuring a perma
nent peace and the well being of airthe
people ; . )
Whereas an adequate supply of virgin
wool and of lamb and mutton to meet
the people's needs can not be provided
until conditions are permanently estab
lished that will make sheep husbandry
a profitable business for those who en
gage in it ; and
Whereas permanently profitable con
ditions for sheep husbandry can not be
established! until sheep husbandry is
freed from the unfair competition with
shoddy that results from selling sWddy
without making its presence known ;
Therefore be it resolved that all
branches of the government, all trade
and civic organizations, educational in
stitutions, ' educators and all others n
tc rested in protecting and rehabilitating
sheep husbandry, one of the world's
most essential industries, be urged to
unite in an appeal to the United States
government to forever end the perni
cious practice of permitting- shoddy to
be sold in fabrics without making Its
presence known a practice that throt
tles sheep husbandry, wrongs the peo
ple and outrages truth and justice.
New High Record
In Cotton Market
New Tork, Jona 27. (L N. 8.) New high
records for the present style contracts were estab
lished at the cotton market opening today, and
first prices were 10 to 20 points over last night's
close. October selling shore 34c. with a firm
understonc
Japanese interests, Liverpool, the trade and
commission houses were all good buyers, reflect
ing further rains in Texaa and Georgia, accom
panied by bullish crop reports. Sentiment also
was influenced by the Southern Products com
pany's condition figure of only 69.5 pointing to
a bullish gorernment report Bert Tuesday.
On the upturn offering's increased, but were
well absorbed and at 10:15 o'clock the list
showed a net rise of about 35 points.
Prices sold off sharply ia the late afternoon
under heavy realising sales, July breaking to
33.75.
The close was barely steady at a net decline
of 25 points to an advance of 2 points.

Greatly improved demand for barley
continues all along the Pacific coast,
Since the recent improvement In the de
mand and advanced prices in California
there has been more or less Increase In
activity at Pacific Northwest points and
barley movement Is agalrt showing from
interior points.
With millsturfs In excellent demand
both at home and from California the
trend of the local trade remains firm
and somewhat inore active than it has
been for several weeks.
Complaints are being made by some
of the local trade regarding the pre
miums being offered by the government
for shipment of wheat through Oulf
ports. Some contend this is a discrim
ination and will affect the local move
ment as various . points which would
probably have shipped through Portland
will be able to secure more money from
the government by diverting to - the
South. The order was issued by Presi
dent Wilson.

OREGON PROJECTS
PUSHtU BY LArJt
Secretary , Submits Figures- to
; Congress on i;. Reclamation
and Funds Necessary.
Washington, Jane 27. In figures sub
mitted to the irrigation committee of the
senate. Secretary Lane has estimated the
amount ef work needed to complete- each
of the existing reclamation projects, ahd
the length of time In which it may be
Clone, if funds are provided aa needed.
Thia exhibit la made In connection
With the effort Senator Jones of Wash
ington is making, with the backing of
Chairman McNary of the Irrigation com
mittee and Secretary Lane, to secure
$50,000,000 at once for the speedy prose
cution of work on existing projects.
During the war this work was slowed up
In several states,sand has not yet 1 eon
speeded up as before hostilities.
Secretary Lane Indicates that tha
work remaining to be dons on tha IT ma
till a project in Oregon is the completion
of laterals, estimated to cost $350,000
beyond the expenditures of the fiscal
year now closing. It Is estimated v that
one- year would be required to com
plete the work If construction Is hur
ried. Three years la considered necessary
for completion of the Klamath project,
but much depends upon the rate with
which the waters of Tula lake are low
ered. The work there Is for completion
of the canal system and drainage, esti
mated to cost t2.700.000 after the pres
ent year.
The Jones amendment. If Carried, will
mean full speed for existing projects
and for hew units of such projects.
Preference In employment is provided
for discharged soldiers, sailors and ma
rines. .n i - i i ' ,r
