The market's average gain was 1.9 points, putting the Standard Statistics-Associated Press compo site at 88.2. a new high for the recovery.

The last report of storage holdings in 28 leading cities Of the country gave a total of 4,138,000 cases. While this is slightly less than the total at the same period a year ago, the move ment of fresh goods has started earlier while demand is not so good. Trading In the butter market continues-to show full steadiness for most scores but top quality is a trifle dull. There is no change in the general price list. Butter tat appears steady. Full steadiness is reflected in the market for live chickens along the wholesale way with no change offered in the bids by killers. There appeara an acute shortage of medium hens. Considering the season, sales of cranberries are limited. The usu al volume of purchases has been reduced by the unwillingness ' of retailers to speculate. .They are buying only Immediate needs.

PEACE More Dangerous Than Those flf war Time, Mother Of r Veterans Told The enemies of peace are mora Insidious than those of actual war time because the former enemies are .mora hidden said Captain George I Koehn of Portland in addressing the Thursday evening program of the fourth biennial state convention of the American "War Mothers in-session la Salem Thursday and Friday at the Ma sonic temple. V - An4 the most threatening en emy of today, one that is attack ing the whole structural sound ness of both the economic and so cial welfare of the nation is that of unemployment, and "It is a problem which commands all the intelligence and patriotism of the nation to combat," Captain Koehn told his - audience. 1 He concluded his remarks with an appeal to all liberty loving Americans and all patriotic organizations to do ev erything possible to alleviate the present condition and solve effect ually the present menace of un employment. Captain Koehn spoke of the ap propriateness . of addressing a meeting of War Mothers at this time which is so near Armistice day, one of the two world holi days he styled it. The other world holiday is Christmas. In the name of the Legion Cap tain Koehn asked the Mothers to feel and be a part of all Armis tice day celebrations over the state for said he, "it is as much your day as it is that of the sol dier sons whom you sent to make the day possible." In tribute to Armistice day Cap tain Keehn expressed the belief that with the last great war and its Armistice day conclusion came a flash of the light of world free dom which lies at the end of the road upon which nations are now stumbling to a peaceful under standing in such pacts as the Lea gue of Nations and the Kellogg Brland peace past. The Mothers received messages of welcome and greetings from the Commander of Capitol post.

The Salem Ad dab yesterday, lis tened to Jnst this kind of an ad dress delivered by Earl Bunting, marketing councillor of Portland. But Banting's talk differed some what from most pep talks, his was filled' with optimistic expressions and Quotations. And from Banting comes the . statetneat that Salem has aoth iaaj to worry aboat compared with other Localities. He quoted ai report of he General Motors Acceptance) oorporatloa which stated that Salem was la the best financial condition of any -city of its siae in the United States. Why not keep it that way and add to it by . pepping np even more. And Just after Harry Plant paid 1200 for the big elephant, the slayers of Portland's much talked of whale were fined $200 each. At any rate all parties had to pay $200, but Plant has the advantage of having something rather large to show for his investment. Par ticularly so when it is heard that Tusko originally brought $50, 000. American Legion of Salem, Irl S. McSherry; Veterans of Foreign Wars, B. H.

Slade is an ar dent football fan and likes all sports. Something important Is occurring If Slade Is not at a game anywhere in this section. And speaking of football games, fans here were treated to a clas sic last night Eldon Jenne, for mer star punter for Washington State and "Spec" Keene, former Oregon State athlete, are both darn - good coaches and their teams are always good. A better pair of coaches would be bard to find in any man's conference. Eldon Jenne, who is known as one of the finest athletes ever turned out and also a smart coach, perhaps would not appreciate publicity on the fol lowing, but pride makes ft lm peratiye to become personal. This writer roomed with Jenne for n yenr at Vybingtou State, and knows that Jenne's reputa tion Is well founded. Jenne was a candidate for tbe Rhodes scholarship to attend Ox ford in England, demonstrating be Is not alone aa athlete. The Pacific coach also attended the Olymple games in Belgium as a By Y oh eee, i pole ' vaulter and .placed high In the finals. How's that for eonfln lag at least part of the column to sports, Mr. Slade?(- ?
