r-f THE OREGON, DAILY: JOURNAL, PQRTL" AND, - WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 17, 1919. PORK PRODUCTS FAIL TO DROP AS QUICKLY AS HOG PRICES T Edited Jby H. Cohen GOV E RNWIENT ORDER STRIPS EGG TRADE OF EH SUPPLES Alaskan Railroad Laborers Are Fed ' Better Than 90 Per Cent or the People of This Section Forces All Values to a Higher Point. The government order for 700 cases of strlotly : fresh eggs, 400 cases of which will bo supplied by Portland, as announced In the morning edition of The Journal, quickly gave. the fresh egg trade here an intensely strong torie. As usual when some firm gets an or der from the government, competing nrmaVqulckly advance their buying nrlcea. thereby adding to tho cost of living to all concerned. Just why the soverament DrlU In calling for inch extremely food and selrcted eggs when there is little o tlris utork available. Is u mystery to the trade smerslly. While 00 per cent o the ueotile o( thin section are compelled to pur chase eolrl storage eges at this time becaune not only the liih price for fresh stock-, but tn in ability of the trade to seeing a sufficient volume. the government's laborers on the Alaskan ran roads are given strict ly fresh utock; every egg being up to a oertain specification, which not only means higher prices tht the jovernment mut pay for these goodn. but that the general imhlin mtut also nar mote than formerly.

Cohen The local trade is wondering whether there . is some connection between the recent refusal of the big sugar interests to Jnaki further sales of the product at Pacific coast refineries to other than cannt-rs, and the sharp advance that is being asked for beet sugar In the east ern trade. While the Pacific coast states are compelled to go without sugar with the exception, perhaps, of the commer cial packers the East is getting Its sup, plles of sugar, but a very large pet-cent of the supply consists of the new beet stock from California. For this tne trade is being asked on the basis of 2Vic a pound. more than is being quoted for the cane production, a condition most unusual and one that calls for investi gation on the part of the authorities. In the meantime many of the smaller grocers of this city Rnd territory have no sugar whatever to offer their cus tomers. Those desiring special information regarding any market should write the Market fcaitor Oregon Journal, enclosing stamp for reply. tfotal 47,278 CHEESE Tounds.

Call money on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange today ruled at 4 per cent; high. 4 per cent; low, 4 per rent. Time money was easy. Rates were 6 per cent. The market for prime mercantile paper was quiet. Call money iu Loudon to day was 3 per cent. Sterling exchange was weak with business in bankers' bills at $4.12 for demand. PACKERS FAIL TO FOLLOW DECLINES HOGS VERY CLOSELY Provisions Are Not Lowered as Much as Live Pork Although Upward Movements of Hog Values Are Sure to Bring Products Higher. Small declines are shown in the mar ket for pork products here during the 24 hours, but the changes are extremely limited as compared with the sharp losses forced In the price of livestock. While there has been a drop of ap proximately 5c a pound in the price of live hogs in the North Portland yards since August 1,' the packers have not been passing this lower price on to the consumer, and the latter is paying with in approximately 2c a pound of the prices paid before the very sharp cuts in live hog values. There eeetm to be no disposition among the packers to follow as closely the declines In the price of live hogs as they have been anxious to put up provision values when live hogs ad vanced. Much complaint is being heard by the trade regarding the Email changes in prices of Dork products while there has been such a se vere cut in the price paid to fanners. Recently there was a further cut of 1 "4 e a pound in the price of live hogs here but the latest price of Uie packers shows a drop of only about Vic a pound in regular hams, lc on pic nics, no change in the best grade of lard, while another grade is off lc a pound.
