CALL IHEK6
FOR FRESH EGGS
Oregon Market Stimulated
But no , More Changes ,
" In Quotations
PORTLAND, Not. 25 AP)
Increasing call for fresh eggs is
ptlmnUting -the. home market
aomewhat but there was no farth
er chance tn the Quotation ran ye
announced by the Pacifie Co-ops.
Pull nrfcM r Onerallr betne
maintained by the local Co-ops for
the treeh goods but reports In the
trade indicate-that some firms are
till mixing fresh and storage
goods and-,, selling the hash as
fresh eggs. This stock is general
ly 1 to 2c below the prices estab
lished by the Co-ops.
Some of the late Increase in
the demand la attributed to the
nsual gains in consumption pre
ceding the holiday but much of
the Increase appears the result of
the public demand fbr something
better than has been offering.
Market for butter is showing a
strong tone locally and conditions
are generally favorable at most
trading points. Prices show no
further change but the shortage
of storage is aiding undergrade?.
Good demand Is continued all
through the market for live chick
ens locally with prices well main
tained generally. The call is fa
vorable in practically all lines
with late receipts cleaning up.
Liberal demand Is showing for
local cranberries and recent sales
are said to be the greatest known
for a like period. There is little
demand for the eastern product.
Calves Demand Good,
For Lambs Poor
Demand for " unwrapped but
packed oranges has taken most of
the local navel trade according to
distributive Interests here. This
is due to the lownes3 of the price
as well as excellent Quality for
early supplies.
Very good call is showing for
country killed calves. There has
been a general cleanup of late of
ferings. Beef is In good call for
bulls.
Dragging tone is reflected gen
erally In the market for heavy
weight country killed lambs but
'there is a very good call and
cleanup of beet light weights
around 11-11 Vic lb. Hogs are
easier at 7-7 c for top blockers.
There Is en unusually slow de
mand for both live and dressed
ducks for the holiday although
arrivals are scant. Geese, how
ever, have been in call and in
clined to show a shortage.
Import Restrictions by
France Result in
-New Selling v
CHICAGO. Nov. 25 (AP)
Almost three- cents a bushel disap
peared from wheat values today
in new outbursts of general sell-
in?, largely of a stop loss charac
ter. Drastic fresh import restric
tions by France, and word of
grain trade reciprocity between
Germany and Russia, together
with weakness of securities in
Wall Street and continued notice
of big unsold supplies of United
States government financed
wheat, put wheat bulls to - rout
until just before the close. At
the last, however. Tallies were
witnessed, helped by indications
that prices were down to a basis
where North American wheat ex
port business appeared likely to
develop on a larger scale.
Wheat closed unsettled 1 7-8
to 2 S-S cents under yesterday's
finish, corn 1 to 1 5-8 off, oats
5-8-1 down.

Labor Wage Controversy Is
Cause of Selling; new
Lows Established
By JOHN L, COOLIT
NEW YORK, Not. IS CAP)
Security and commodity markets
gave ground eaally today under
light selling, and on the ere of
Thanksgiving day a number of
primary markets found them
selves near the October bottoms.
Selling was stimulated in the
stock market by disappointment
over indications of a protracted
railroad labor wage controversy.
Weakness of wheat, corn, cotton.
bar silver and other commodities
added to the movement. Persist
ence of the downward trend con
tinued right up to the close when
stock! were close to the day's ex
treme low points.
The Associated- Press-Standard
statistics averages showed new
lows tor the general bond aver
ages and also for railroad stocks.
Weakness of the carriers sent
many of them to the lowest point
tn the present two-year down
swing. Wall street bankers said
the decline did not represent a
fresh outburst of selling so much
as a continuation of the dull
sinking spell through which car
rier securities hare long been
passing.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE
RATES UNCERTAIN

price at which it was ever traded
on the New York Stock exchange.
United States Steel. American
Can, Westlnghonse Electrle and
International Telephone led the
decline In the industrials.
Foreign exchange rates were
mixed with considerable selling
of sterling reported from London.

were scored by Scandinavian cur
