Newspaper Page TextPAGE TEN vThe OREGON STATESMAN, Salem, Oregon, Thursday Morning, September 21, 1939 Rising Stock Tide Salem Market Quotations Stemmed Profit Taking Prevent War Issues Climbing "! i to new Highs c T JEW YORK, Sept. 20.-ff)-A drrre to pot the war stocks Into new high ground was stemmed to day by the hate of many apecnla tors to cash paper profits before the neutrality fight opens In eon cress. ' Leading steels, motors, rail equipments, chemicals and other nrreat favorites were QD 1 to about 4 In early trading. Persist tnt offerings from traders fol io wins the day-to-day develop ments on the war fronts whittled down the gains, leaving the list somewhat irregular at the finisn Few issues emerged with net gains of as much as a point. Meanwhile, the market pi see was confronted with ample evi dence of a real autumn rise, sum ulated by the! recent wave of war hnvlnr In commodities and whole sale markets! for finished and semi-finished products. Steel cen ters, particularly, turned in pic tures of humming activity. . Ralls Active Rails and rail equipments shared the early speculative play with steels on reports carloadings had increased sharply and that some carriers for the first time in years were hanging out the "help want ed" sign to speed repair of equip ment. Final prices were only fraction ally higher for United States Steel, General Motors. Goodyear, Doug las Aircraft, Kennecott Copper, Santa Fe and US Rubber. Small net declines were posted in Youngsta n Sheet, Chrysler, Gen eral Electric, Anaconda and New York -Central. Transactions slowed when the advance ended. The volume, heavy at the outset, totaled 2,142,00 shares compared with 1,832,630 yesterday. The Associated Press composite price of 60 Btocks held unchanged at 6.24. Some US treasury Issues sold at 1939 lows in a renewed decline. Many rail bonds, on the other hand, rose 1 to 3 points. Gardeners' ;WiMfar POBTLAND, Ora., Sept. 20. (A.?)

War inspired purchasing, which caught the pit with few selling or ders at the opening, caused the sharp upturn. When high prices of 87 and 89 H for December and May contracts were reached. Howerer, many traders rushed to take profits. The result was that the market had a generally down ward coarse after the first few minutes of trading and the close was lower to 4 cent higher compared with yesterday's finish, December 85-, May 86-. At the early highs, wheat came within about a cent of the war boom peaks touched September 7. Other grains fluctuated ner Tously but within much narrower ranges. Stock Strength Aids The speeches of Hitler and Chamberlain attracted most at tention in the trade. Strength in Btocks also aided the early buying movement Tending to restrain activity, however, was lagging ex port trade with the subsidy with drawn, and diminishing domestic flour business, altogether millers reported sales were satisfactory in view of large bookings still unsat isfied. Traders pointed out large wheat supplies are available in both Can ada and Argentina at prices well below the domestic market. Bue nos Aires October wheat was quoted around 53 cents while Winnipeg October was priced at 74. t There were rumors of substan tial export sales of Canadian wheat the past few days, with bus iness today estimated at 760.000 bushels. However, sales to Can ada's best customer, Great Brit ain, were not disclosed. Milling in terests were in the local market at times, with purchases estimated at 95.000 bushels. Vessel space was chartered to move 800,000 bush els to Buffalo.

In a letter to S. Stephenson Smith, president of the Oregon Commonwealth Federation. Paul H. Appleby, assistant to Agricul ture Secretary Wallace, advised growers to work out a program for the future. He asserted "a good many mil lions of dollars' had been spent in "baling out" prune growers, and added the prune people have done nothing to in dicate we shan't have to go on spending steadily increasing sums in future years. it is im possible for the federal govern ment' permanently to underwlre all of these various producer groups with special aid."
