BY WHOLESALERS
Ban Francisco. May 21. (U. P.)
Annual "cleanup" sales In every sec
tion of the country are "historically
beinar mistaken for a downward
movement In: prices."
-This was the ' interpretation riven
today -by heads of the Manufacturers
and Wholesalers association, which this
week Is holding a "buyers' week" in
Ban Francisco, to the telegraphic dis
patches from Eastern trade centers re
garding "price reductions."
Prices are not coming down, it was
emphatically stated. '

reau of labor statistics, a general ad
vance of nearly 4?4 points In the whole
sale pries of Important commodities be
ing registered. Fuel and lighting ma
terials increased 11 per cent while there
was an advance of 9 'per cent in food
due to the high prices of sugar and po
tatoes. Lumber and building materials
went up 5Vi per cent.
In only one group, cloth and clothing.
was there a ' net decrease in April, as
compared with the March price, and
that was a decrease of less than 1 per

ecutives, the commission issued a num
ber -of orders for each of the lines, di
recting the roads to deliver a certain

COTJ2CTISG TO BE SLOW "
It will require a long and hard pull to
get all the ballots counted and the to
tals tabulated. ; The Republican pri
mary ballots are ponderous instruments,
both as to the' voting and the counting.
Added to them are the. special state and
municipal ballots, which, all together,
make no mean chore facing the Judges
and clerks of the many precincts in the
city and county,' and in the state, at
large.
Multnomah county has a registered
Republican vote of 83,399 ; a Democratic
vote of TS7.918, together with 6836 mis
cellaneous registrants.

this , morning. v Some closely tn tough
with the situation predict that 75 per
cent of those registered will vote today,
wane some predict an even larger pro

to register at all are taking advantage
of the . privilege :ito have their vote
