Dearth of News Stimulus

By FRANK MacMILLEN
NEW . YORK, Jan- 18. - (ff
Stock prices nosed downward to
day - throughout the abbreviated
session. ' '
Acute pressure was absent, but
weekend evening up and the lack
of important bidding In a num
. ber of the recently active groups
.Induced a general sag in the list
Stocks changed hands at a fair
ly brisk rate for the two - hour
trading period. Turnover In the
stock exchange totaled 1,072,791
shares. -
A decline of .3 of a point was
' registered by the Associated Press
average of 60 stocks at 57.3. The
industrials, rails and utilities used
, In the compilation declined about
equally.
Beside the power and carrier
Issues, motors, steels and mines
appeared rather friendless during
the whole session.
Pivotal Shares Down
, Many of the " so-called pivotal
shares, and some of the equities
- which have been well taken in
- recent sessions dropped back frac
tions, to a point or so.
In addition to the restrictive
influences generated by nearby
. action on important Washington
legislation, the market had to con
tend with a dearth of news stimu
lus. Detroit advices Indicated some
hesitancy in motor production
schedules for the coming week,
confirming some Wall Street trad
ers in their recent attitude of cau
tion toward auto shares.

Milk Production
Averages Listed
Up .4 Point Over January
Year Ago; Still Low
Throughout Nation
On farms of Oregon dairymen
reporting to the United States de
partment of agTlcnlture division
of crop jand livestock estimates
tbe production per cow averaged
13.6 pounds in January, 1936,
compared with 13.2 pounds a
year ago, 13.0 two years ago,
and the 1925-33 January 1 aver
age of 13.3 pounds.
Milk production is still rather
low in most parts of the United
States. Dairy herds are being
rather closely culled and appear
to include less than the usual
proportion of heifers and heifer
calves because of the high price
of veal, last year's adjustments
to the shortage of feed, and the
more favorable return being se
cured from other classes of live
stock. Shift in freshening dates
has caused a reduction in the
number of cows that are "fresh or
will freshen before spring. These
factors tend to reduce current
milk production and to support
the price of dairy products.
Batter Rise Reflected
The price of butter has now
risen to a point where dairymen
are again feeding 'nearly the
usual quantity of grain per head,
and there are signs that in a few
of the more important dairy sec
tions an increased proportion of
the heifer calves are being saved.
In the general farming areas, on
the other hand, the high prices
of meat animals still tend to de
crease Interest in dairying, and
until the cows freshening in the
spring come into production the
commercial supply of cream for
making butter seems dependent
on a continuation of a favorable
price.
Daily milk production as re
ported by crop correspondents
averaged 11.27 pounds per milk
cow in their herds on January 1
compared to 10.68 pounds on
January 1 last year,. 11.23 pounds
In January, 1934, and a January
1 average of 12 pounds during
the preceding nine years.

Hop Contract
Activity Seen
Several Thousand Bales at
12 Cents; Held Below
, Production Cost
A few thousand bales of hops
have been contracted within the
past few weeks by local growers
at 12 cents per pound, it was
learned authoritatively from Sa
lem dealers yesterday.
This price, it was reported, is
fully five cents below the cost of
production, but by contracting
erowers can insure themselves of
at least two cents in advance and
can thus obtain necessary capital
for further operation. Further
more, this price is considerably
above that for which current sales
have been made.
Oregon hop markets maintain
ed a steady tone last week. Sales
reported were all of the 1935 crop
and of the cluster variety. Demand
tended to slacken toward the close
of the week, but growers were re
ported refusing to sell for less
than nine cents Per pound, net,
for the better qualities, with some
holding for at least ten cents per
pound. Current bids for top quali
ties held around nine cents per
pound, net to growers.
Moderately Active
. Up and down the Pacific coast
markets were moderately active
and prices to growers held about
unchanged compared with the pre
vious week. Demand for domestic
buyers, while not urgent, was suf
ficient to absorb current market
offerings fairly readily, since
growers were not pressing their
remaining stocks on the market.
Sales by growers totaled over
1000 bales during the past week
in the three Pacific coast states,
or about equal 'to the volume of
the previous week, according to
trade reports. Comparatively light
remaining stocks of 1935 crop
hops in growers bands, together
with lack of selling pressure, par
ticularly for the better qualities,
continued to furnish the princi
pal steadying market influences.
Domestic consuming interests
furnished the principal outlet for
current offerings of the week, in
asmuch as foreign inquiry was
very slow.
Butter Weak But
Prices Unchanged
PORTLAND, Jan. 18.-(P)-
There was no change in the gen
eral egg trade on the open mar
ket. Prices showed a spread of
two cents with weakness domin
ating the market.
Butter and butterfat remained
unchanged.
Live chickens were steady with
prices unchanged.
There was a good demand for
quality country killed calves, es
pecially light weights. Hogs were
fully steady with lambs nominal.
Beef was steady.
There was a critical situation
in the potato trade confronting
producers. The fight between re
tailers is getting worse with a
further reduction in the price of
the better sorts here.
There was an extreme scarcity
of best quality hothouse tomatoes
and extra fancy is commanding a
premium. Ordinary stock was un
changed. Donations Are Asked

Hupmobile Plans
Brief Shutdown
Will Continue to Produce
Cars; Refinancing Is
Under Way
To dispel any misapprehension
the public may have in regard to
future of the Hopmobile company,
A. N. Stewart, local Hupp dealer,
yesterday released tbe following
telegram sent to all distributors
in the United States and Canada
by W, A. McDonald, director of
sales for the Hupp Motor Car cor
poration: "We have voluntarily closed
plant pending consummation re
financing program; have every
assurance of this being 'complet
ed. Closing plant was with idea
of conserving assets until produc
tion is resumed. This company is
in sound solvent condition. There
are no bonds, no preferred stock
and no bank loans.
"There is no basis for any idea
that Hupmobile will not continue
to manufacture cars when this
program is completed. All depart
ments in office including service
d shipping departments func
tioning as usual."
Stewart says b also has re
ceived a wire that the Hupp cor
poration has sufficient cars on the
coast to take care of all orders
until the factory resumes produc
tion, this information coming
from R. R. Roberts, district sales
manager, Portland.

Is Requested
of Receipts
came late this week when
of receipts and disbursements
from the sale of "B" grade milk
bandied on account of the pool
ing of milk from the Salem mar
ket area for the last half of De
cember, 193 5.
. This period is selected because
it is the last completed pool and
Is held fairly representative o
the situation.
The letter to the board says in
part:
"It has been charged that an
assessment is being made to help
carry theoverhead of the plant
in Portland owned by the Co-operative
Dairy association, while
the most of the milk was sold to
the factory at Hillsboro. Also it
has been charged that a certain
part of the milk received is sold
back into the Salem area to vbe
used as ice cream milk and there
by resulting in a double charge
for transportation. We realize
that the amount used for ice
cream is small at this season of
the year, but the same principle
would apply throughout the
year."
Flax Is Topic at
Conference Here
Canby and Molalla Group
Visit Gofernor, Says
600 Acres Signed
Farmers and business men from
Canby and Molalla conferred with
Governor Martin Friday regard
ing plans for organization of a
flax growers' association to take
advantage of funds available from
the federal government for con
struction of retting plants in this
state.
It will be necessary for the dis
trict to raise $10,000 to match
PWA money in order to take ad
vantage of federal funds allocated
to the promotion of flax growing,
but E. E. Berg, spokesman for the
group, felt confident that there
would be no difficulty in raising
this sum. More than 600 acres
have already been signed up for
flax production in the Canby-Mo-lalla
section.
Tentative plans as outlined Fri
day, call for the organization of
a single district to include the ter
ritory surrounding Canby and
Molalla with a retting plant lo
cated convenient to the growers
of the entire district, possibly
midway between the two cities.
Members of the delegation, in ad
dition to Berg include Herman
Etzel, V. C. Doppleb, Albert Ey
man and Arthur Brocket. These
men also inspected the state pri
son flax plant, including the ret
ting tanks and scutching depart
ment. Move to Amity

Wheat Climbs
Fails to Hold
Liverpool Futures Afford
Principal IncentiTe;
May Over Dollar'
" By JOHN P. BOUGHAN
CHICAGO, Jan. 18.-(5)-With
a late momentary flash ot buying
ardor, wheat today reached a new
top point on the present move
ment of prices, but gains were
only held in a alight degree.
Furnishing some Incentive to
buyers was the fact that March
deUvery of wheat at Liverpool
had climbed to a new top price
record for the season. Besides,
there was talk that owing to un
favorable prospects for her Win
ter crop, France might put an
embargo on wheat exports.
Wheat closed steady, identical
with yesterday's finish to cent
higher. May 1.00-, corn -Vt
advanced. May 60-. oats
xk - up,' and provisions varying
from 50 decline to 12 cents gain.
F-lls to Reach 1.01
The late buying spurt in wheat
lifted prices to $1.00 foe May,
but the market then receded ow
ing more, or less to assertions
that enlarged selling would be
witnessed at $1.01. The fact also
that overnight demand from Eu
rope for Canadian wheat was dis
appointing had a restraining ef
fect on speculative buyers.
Corn and oats were strength
ened by predictions of a cold
wave.
Provisions were mostly steady
because of prospects of a light
movement of hogs.
