TIIE OREGON STATESMAN : WEDNESDAY. JULY 28, 1H20. Price of Beef Affected By All Possible Factors "WASHINGTON, July .27. Unus ual fluctuations in the price of dressed beef occurred, during the first slv months of this year, says ateport of the United States bureau of markets. Starting with a top price of 12 i for good grade beef In January, sharp and erratic price changes marked trading througtiout the period, with the low top price f 117 recorded during the last week in May and the high point, $31. made on June 23. an Increase of $14 hundred pounds in 30 days. 'A series of . unavoidable events, most Of them resulting from abnor ' mal conditions produced by the war, contributed to the phenomenal price trends, the report says. Among the principal disturbing influences de scribed are- periodical releases by the - war department of surplus stocKS or oeei in an euuri io rwuo living costs, higher stocker and feeder markets high priced feed?. fruition of producers' efforts to In crease cattle production for war nda and antlalDated foreign de mands, labor troubles, decreased transportation facilities, embargoes, unsettled foreign credit restrictions,, declines in prices of hides, tallow, and other animal by-products and decreased or spasmodic consumption of meat. An fact, the report says, every possible economic factor Incidental to a oerloi of reconstruction and capable -of disturbing market eon ditions for these products of the farm and range had free and almost, unlimited action. Prices or livestock in the Chicago market and those paid for dressed carcasses as taken from New York quotations from -10 days to two weeks after the live cattle transac tions also showed wide fluctuations, the report tsserts. The difference of $2.2 per 100 pounds between prices, for good beef steers and the corresponding grade of dressed car cases in January was widened until it stood at $14.50 during the closing days of June. For the same period the difference between the low price cf medium steers on ths hoof and n the carcass had advanced from .2S to $12.75. A comparison of live cattle prices onrl nri-pa on relative grades OI dressed moats on January 2 and on June 30 this year with those of cor responding dates last year at si.7& and at the end of June as io-w with the onenine too price on dressed beef from such steers at 1 ana the close at S31. On January 2. 1919. live Drices for the same grade were un to S 17.75 and at the end of six months the top stood at $14.60 decline of $3.15.

Once alongside Resolute. Sir Thomaa led. the cheer for the win ners, and then he called for a cheer for Captain Adams, both or which were responded to with a will by the crew of the racer. He then put back to wait for Shamrock to finish and he in turn called for a cheer for his own boys. "They did the best they could for me." was his only comnieni. "If this race has done nothing else but bring closer together the people of the United States and the old countrr. I feel that rar effort has been .worth while " he said. "I wish more British would visit America. Nothing could please me better than to have the people of these two great countries ret better acquainted. Sir Thomas took comfort In the fact that for the first time he had won two races of a series. "Next time 1 will get a third." he said. v Everything Was Fair. Speaking of the New York Yacht club and the rules Sir Thomas stated that "everything was perfectly right and proper." He added that Resolute was fully entitled to the time handi cap given her and that all other con ditions were fair and lust. "The only complaint I can make against the New York -Yacht club. he said, "la that they build better boats than I do. Never mind, how ever, there will be another race. Sir Thomas announced that he would remain in New York for a short while, and then go to Canada.

He returned Just in time to see Shamrock cross. His gameness as he drew away from his own sloop to congratulate the winner elicited a salvo of cheers from those on spectator craft. And Sir . Thomas responded .Jauntily. Sir Thomaa to Try Again. Sir Thomas announced he, would build a new challenger and come across again In 1922, provided some other yachtsman did not challenge end win the cup sooner. "flout Itmt Won "We all did our best skipper, de signer and crew and we have ben beaten fair and square. ' said Sir Thomas.-..:., 1 ; "I have been trea'ed with the greatest fairness and sportsmanship by Americans and I am taking home the very best memories. "I shall wait till next year to give some one else a chance to challenge and then I shall re-challenge. "1 have no excuses to offer: Reso lute's-the better-boat." . ; - Sir Thomas reiterated he would challenge again. He will, wait ten months, and then ask for a, race in 1922. He also said that his next racer will be "Shamrock V." s Greatly Diuppninted. There was no disputing Sir Thomaa was disappointed. He made no at tempt to disguise his feelings. . ' - "Nothing could have pleased me more than to have won," he said, "It has. been my greatest ambition for 21 years, and I am very, very sorry to lose. I wish I could have taken that cup back home again even for a week. I. think It would be better for yachting." Resolute over the finish line. Vic toria followed as closelr as possible.

Six years later the cup was brought to the United States by the New York Yacht club and placed In trust as an international challenge prize. 2 Here it has ' sidered very serious. One reason for the situation is that formerly Argentine sheep breeders had thought more of the meat than tne wool, with the result that tnetr stock became mixed and the conse quent wool coarse and hot uniform.
