ThV OREGON STATESMAN. Salem. Ongoa, Thursday Morning July 8. 1844,
Stocks Soar
ToNew Highs
NEW. YORK, July..5-(ff)-The
holiday recess crovided the stock
. market with a good backlog of
- buying today and this,' plus a
buoyant rise in US Steel, enabled
the general list to continue its ad
wance to new seven-year highs.
Groups most responsive to the
, broad demand were the steels,
motors, air transports, communi
cations, gold mines, utilities, cop
pers, specialties and oils. Final
gains ranged from fractions to
: around Z points. The rails snowed
early progress but faltered near
the cjose. Some industrials re
. treated a bit from their best lev
eis in the final hour.
i. 'Brokers again associated the
- buying urge with the great vol-
ume of idle money, good war
j news, political hopes and general
1. confidence as to postwar business
prospects.;! ,
" Bullish sentiment was j stimu
lated by US Steel's sprightly op-
- ening, a 5000 share transaction at
62, up 1. More was added to this
gain but at its closing price of
' 62 Vi, up Vt, big steel was under
- its high. ' , ; ;
The gold stocks were helped by
.' happenings at the Bretton Woods
.' monetary j conference which indi
cated thai US treasury ideas con
cerning gold as a currency base
might prevail over those of Bril
i ish monetary experts, who are
lukewarm toward the yellow me
! tal. 1 -j
. The (Associated Press 60-stock
j composite moved up .2 of a point
to 56.0, i a record since October,
" 1937. It was one of the most ac
tive of the big post-invasion mar
kets with volume of; 2,435,770
shares i compared with 1,562,400

Fire Bums
20,000 Acres
t ; i
PENDLETON, July S-,JfyA
blaze that at through approxi
mately 20,000 acres of grass and
grain land in the Sandhollow dis
trict was believed under control
today after a three-day battle by
500 volunteers.
Men1 were called in from-50
miles around after the fire, which
started in the Cecil area, began
. spreading westward, fanned by
brisk 1 winds. Summer fallow
ground checked the flames on the
east- j .'!
Approximately 1800 acres of
wheat and barley and a number of
old sheep camp buildings were de
stroyed. Most of the burned area,
however, was, range land. Live
, stock was not endangered, since
sheep had been moved to higher
ranges following the spring graz
ing season.
The first raged west of Butter
creek, about 25 miles southwest of
Hermiston. Estimates of damage
have not been made.
