'.And Pf-ices Generally i' Finish at Low Level b ' NEW YORK, Oct 22-fl3)-Buy-ing apathy Wednesday impaired stock market's capacity for extending ,: its recent recovery and j prices generally finished on a lower level. The decline had no great mo mentum and only a few of the losses exceeded fractional limits. Slimness of support was associ ated with the theory of specula tive circles that the rally since last Friday had gone about as far as could be expected under the handicaps and restraints of the war and emergency regulations of business. Recording Its first dip in four sessions, The Associated Press 60- stock average finished with a net loss of .2 of a point at 41.1. Trans fers totaled 487,340 shares against 581,124 the previous day. , Westinghouse Electric suffered . another spell of weakness, dipping i points to a new 1941 low. Nar ; rower declines appeared in Gen eral Motors, Chrysler, US Steel, Bethlehem, Republic, DuPont, Union Carbide, Allied Chemical, and Great Northern Pfd. . Aviation issues yielded ground despite optimistic ideas on dm- : dends stemming from the voting of a $5 - per share payment on Douglas.

R. Hy slop of the state college and Floyd Mullen, Linn county agent, lead the discussion. The meeting is being arranged by L. E. Arnold, G. N. Gillen water and Ralph Scroggin, agri cultural committee of the Lebanon chamber of commerce. The processing plants in the state are not able to take care of the amount of flax now raised, but an increased acreage will be expected since the price of linen has more than doubled because importations from Europe have been shut off. Though flax has been grown here for many years it has been for seed rather than for fibre until recently. While it is said that some local capital might be in vested in a processing -plant, if such a business is started more growers would be interested In having it a cooperative. Annual Corn Show Scheduled at Corvallis Oregon's fifth annual corn show will be held on the Oregon State college campus Friday and Sat urday, December 12 and 13, ac cording to definite announcement by the state corn show committee. Premium lists are now being pre pared and will be distributed well in advance.

The popular corn shuck ing contest will be held again, as will the hybrid yield contest and the various judging events. Exhibits of torn entered in county contests will also be eligi ble for ' reshowing in he state show, or a grower may take the additional time to choose a better exhibit than the one already shown.

Grain Mart Has Slump CHICAGO, Oct 22-Pr-An air of gloomy expectancy pervaded the grain markets Wednesday and prices turned generally : down ward, more from inattention than from active selling pressure. Wheat closed about Vi cent above the day's lowest levels, reached shortly before the close, but 114-1 below Tuesday's fin ish, December 1.15 H-1.15, May 1.19- Tuesday's sharp price swings appeared to have left wheat tired and listless and the volume of trading was much smaller. The May delivery enjoyed fair sup port at around $1.20 a bushel, with mills reported doing some purchasing, but after soybeans developed weakness, the down torn encountered less opposition.
