Hop Mee tings
Set by Board
; ; Oregon Growers to Be
Informed of Dates (
and Places -Hop
growers meetings, under
direction of the hop control board,
will be held in Oregon, Washing
ton and California during the first
part of March for -the purpose of
reporting to growers operations of
the hop board to date, and for
giving growers full opportunity to
make suggestions or iriticism re
lating to operation of the program,
and for consideration of amend
ments to the marketing agreement
for the 1941 se?son. Notices will
be given in advance to each grow
er stating the time and place of
meeting. ' ; :;Vv, .
The growers allocation commit
tee, functioning under federal hop
marketing agreement No. 92 and
Order No. 49, regulating the han
dling of hops grown In Oregon,
California and Washington, today
announced the final determination
of 1940 hop production of all
growers as determined and an
nounced by Grover B. Hill, act
ing secretary, United States de
partment of agriculture, to be 42,
996,257 pounds.
' The secretary of agriculture de
termined the "salable quantity of
1940 crop hops" to be 37,000,000
pounds on September 5, 1940.
The "salable percentage" of the
total quantity of 1940 hops pro
duced by all growers is 86.114 per
cent. That percentage is computed
by dividing the "salable quantity
of 1940 crop hops" (37,000,000
pounds) by the total quantity of
1940 crop hops produced by all
growers (42,996,257 pounds).
Each grower's "salable allot
ment" is figured by applying that
"salable percentage" to his 1940
production as determined by the
secretary of agriculture.
The growers allocation commit
tee is today mailing to each grow
er in Oregon, California and
Washington notice of his salable
allotment as computed by that
committee.

: NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-()-The
stock market today 'duplicated its
performance . of Monday with
last-gasp rally that enabled fa
vorites to close at or near best
levels of the session with gains of
fractions to more than 2 points.'
The list improved at the start,
faltered and advances in many
cases were transformed into de
clines after mid-day. Dealings
turned exceptionally sluggish on
the retreat but picked up in the
final quarter of an hour.
The Associated Press average
of 60 stocks ended up .2 of a point
at 41.4, which was well above the
1941 low of 39.8 established Feb
ruary 14. From the high of 45
early in January a slow recession
had been under way until a week
ago. Transfers totalled 357.230
shares compared with 347,730 the
day before. .
Douglas Aircraft was a strons
spot among shares, holding a net
upturn of 3 points, apparently
in further reflection of the con
cern's record profits showing for
1940.
Others in front included US
SteeL Bethlehem. Crucible SteeL
General Motors, Chrysler, United
Aircraft, Glenn Martin, Montgom
ery Ward, Eastman Kodak, Dow
Chemical, American Can. Allied
Chemical, American Telephone,
American Smelting, Santa Fe,
Southern Pacific and Chesapeake
