Thm OREGON STATESMAN. Salem. Oregon. Saturday Morning. September 13. X94X ! Hop Demand Only Fair Tendency to Await New Samples Noted; Harvest Slow Hop markets on the west coast were fully steady to firmer dur trig the week ended September 10, the department of agriculture reports in the weekly hop market review. Trading was of only mod erate volume, with light offerings from growers, who were mostly till occupied with harvesting operations. Demand however, was only fair from domestic dealers and in dustries with a general tendency on their part to await new crop samples and deliveries on earlier contract sales. Harvesting ol tne new crop was making rather slow but . steady progress in most pro ducing areas of the three west coast states, being delayed oy a continued shortage of pickers and rainy weather. Continued unfav orable weather conditions during the next two weeks would very likely result in a lowering of both quantity and quality, according to trade reports. Oregon markets were about steady daring the past week. Sales by Oregon growers In cluded several small lots total ing two to three carloads of new crop farcies and early clusters which netted SO to 31 cents per , pound. Difficulty in harvesting the crop in this state was still the most important feature in ' the general situation. Rainy weather and shortage of labor this season has delayed picking quite seriously.

CHICAGO, Sept 12.-;p)-The grain price rise was halted by a swelling volume of profit taking sales Friday but onlyi ( after new high quotations for the past sev eral years were posted on board of trade blackboards. Prices showed net losses at the close. Early buying inspired princi pally by the president's speech carried grains 1 to almost 2 cents higher, with wheat leading. Wheat and deferred corn futures touch ed new four-year peaks, May de liveries, at $1.29 and 91 re spectively. Oats were the highest since 1934, and within a cent of equalling the best futures market price in 11 years, with May at a top of 57. Soybeans, rising as much as 5 cents, established all-time highs, May reaching $2.02. Later, profit taking increased and traders also noted the fact that treasury and federal reserve officials have been busily pre paring a program designed to check inflation. Wheat fell almost 3 cents from early highs and was more than, a cent below Thurs day's close at one stage. Final prices were - lower than Thursday, September $1.19, De cember $1.23-1.22. 1.3 cents per hundred instead of $3.50' per car.
