Business News Continues
Favorable With Steel
Operation Higher
NEW TORX, Oct. 2S.-(JP)-The
sellers had a shade the better of
It today la the daily market eri-
counter with their bullish fellow
traders. The bulk of the stock list gave
a little ground in relatively quiet
- dealings, but the bulls had their
innings : with a few specialties,
some rails, which were mostly
ready, and at times firm, and a
' few non-ferrous metal shares.
A number of the recently
."- bought favorites, including the
hulk of the motors and accessor
ies, American Can, Monsanto, Un
ion Pacific, Schenley and others
fare tip fractions to a point or
more.
' i, ' . Average 2 Down
Measured by the Associated
-. Press average of 60 stocks the
net decline for the day was .2
of a point at 52.7. Turnover in
the stock exchange was 2,114,710
V shares, a considerably quieter
hourly rate than during most of
last week.
A reactionary trend In leading
commodities helped to restrain
buying and encourage profit-taking
in the stock market. At Chi
cago wheat futures lost ' 1 H to
1 cents a bushel, while corn
retreated to of accent. Cot
, ton was down 40 cents a bale
, to 10 cents higher.
Much Wall Street attention was
: being given to the domestic busU
. ness news, the principal item of
which was an increase of .1 of
a point in steel operations to 51.9
per cent of capacity. Third quar
ter earnings reports began to ap
pear in quantity, with a majority
making a rather favorable com
,.t parison with a year ago, although
there were exceptions.
Carriers reports of September
net operating income continued in
most cases to show good gains
over the same week of 1934. The
first 41 roads to report for last
month showed net operating rev
enue 42 per cent higher than a
year ago.
Coca-Cola Dips
The high-priced Coca-Cola dip
ped 3 points to 273 after its re
cent strength, as stockholders ap
proved a proposal to split the
stock 4 - for - 1. Studebaker lost
nearly a point at 7 when its Sep
tember quarter report showed a
gTeatly increased loss compared
with the previous 3 months.
Among 1 s b u e s which moved
against the trend to register gains
of major fractions to around a
point or a little more included
Westlnghouse at 89, American
Smelting at 68, Anaconda at
217s, American Bank Note at
36, Cerro de Pasco at 59, Corn
Products at 63 and Eastman at

Canada Wheat
Policy Feared
Drop of 2 Cents Results
at Chicago; Damping
Held Probable
CHICAGO. Oct. 28-VPersl8-tent
tumbling of Winnipeg wheat
quotations to new leyels under the
Canadian government's guarantee
to farmers pitched Chicago wheat
prices down nearly 2 cents today.
Indications were that Canada's
official wheat board was at least
temporarily In the predicament of
being compelled by law to buy
wheat at a fixed price at home
and either pile up a further sur
plus or sell at a loss abroad. With
no signs of any immediate ade
quate European outlet for Cana
dian wheat in sight, possibilities
of hea-y selling of wheat from
Canada to come into the Unieed
States made the Chicago market
shaky.

Potato Diversion
Plan is Launched
A determined effort to pull the
country's potato industry out of
its present doldrums Is under way
by the agricultural adjustment
administration which has just
completed a series of both infor
mal and formal hearings on the
problem throughout the commer
cial potato producing areas of the
nation.
The nearest of these' meetings
to Oregon were held in Idaho the
last week in October, where E. R.
Jackman of the O. S. C. extension
service, went as observer for the
growers and extension service of
this state.
It is estimated that potato pri
ces in the United States are now
bringing growers an average of
only 50 per cent of their parity
value. It is the belief of AAA
officials that by a combination of
diversion of excess tonnage to in
dustrial uses and creation of mar
keting agreements in cer tain
areas, the average returns to pro
ducers can be raised to about 75

per cent of parity. This wojild in
crease the returns to growers by
60 per cent and, yet would In
crease the price to consumers only
10 or 15 per cent, the officials de
clare. The diversion plan would be
operated in surplus regions when
ever the market was so glutted
that prices dropped to a point
where conversion into by-products
such as livestock feed, potato
flour, staTch. alcohol or similar
products would be practical. It is
proposed to have the government
assist with such diversion nnder
strict regulation as to the percent
age of any grower's crop used fot
these purposes.
Wheat Sign-up is
Topic of Meeting
The first wheat educational and
sign-up meeting for the new 1936
wheat program was held in the
Salem chamber of commerce
rooms, Monday afternoon. The
program was discussed and the
outstanding features of the new
contract explained by William L.
Teutsch of the extension service
of Oregon State college.
After a great many questions
had been answered, those present
were given an opportunity to
sign applications for a contract,
and all those in attendance at the
meeting either signed an applica
tion or took one home with them
to be completed.
Educational and sign-up meet
ings will be held in the other
wheat districts of the county ac
cording to the following schedule:
Nov. 1, Woodburn, 1:30, City
Hall.
Nov. 1, Mt. Angel. 7:30, City
Hall.
Nov. 5, Silverton, 9:00, Armory.
Nov. 5, Stayton, 1:30, City Hall.
Nov. 8, St. Paul, 1:30, City
Hall.
County Agent Harry L. Riches
stated that persons who do not
have wheat contracts at the pres
ent time, but raised wheat during
the base period, are eligible to
sign one of the new contracts.

In Heavy Demand
Onions Continue Firm at
$1.25; no Change in
Butter and Eggs
PORTLAND, Oct. 28-(rP)-There
was no change in the Egg market
situation for the week's opening.
Receipts are now increasing but
cold storage Interests are still in
control of price making generally.
Market for butter suggested a
generally unchanged tone and
pricefor the week's opening. De
mand was steady with an increas
ed supply showing although re
ceipts from out-state points were
a trifle below the previous six
days. Local make was greater.
Full steadiness was generally
suggested in the market for
cheese.
Market for chickens was ruling
firm and in spots a further frac
tional advance was shown in the
price on hens, both white and col
ored sorts. There was a slight de
mand for ducks.
'Strong tone was ruling for
dressed turkeys of the new crop
with recent sales to retailers as
high as 24c lb., which is excep
tionally good for this period of the
season.
Slowness of buying tone was
continued in the market for coun
try killed calves. There was sug
gestion of further weakness with
late receipts a trifle above de
mand. Tomatoes Advance
There was another showing of
gain in the market for hothouse
tomatoes with the marketing sea
son opening slowly while prices
are tending a trifle higher as a re
sult of poor field grown- stock.
Sales up to $1.30 for extra fancy
and 1.25 for fancy 10s.
Onion trade continued firm at
$1.25 net to grower for shipments.
Potato markets were slow to
steady with Klamath mostly $1.25
and Deschutes $1.15 cental.

lands of the public domain which
have now come under systematic
control through operafion of the

millions of acres of range lands.
The station is to be the; only one
