As to the status of the Portland 'gateway question, Mr. Keyes was un able to give any very definite Infor mation excepting in regard to the pos sibility of the matter beting settled at a Washington conference early in December.

Discussion of the car shortage fea tured the weekly meeting of the Bend Commercial club at the Pilot Butte Inn this noon, and after an explana tion of existing conditions, a motion by Whisnant for the adoption of resolutions condemning the diversion of cars from the S. P. & S., was car ried without a dissenting vote. That the shippers of the Central Oregon section had been caught nap ping was the declaration of A. Whis nant, who asserted that the diversion order could be traced to J. N. Teal, of Portland, through connections with A. C. Dixon, manager of the Booth Kelly Lumber Co., of Eugene, and Clyde B. Aitchison, of the Interstate Commerce Commission. He mentioned that the war board has ordered that western white pine may be used instead of spruce for airplane construction, but J. P. Keyes of the Brooks-Scanlon Lumber Co., stated that the Central Oregon lum ber could not possibly come up to the specifications now In use, and that consequently no change in the local car situation was to be expected be cause of the war board's decision. A. letter from C. C. Chapman, of Portland, was read relative to the re tention of Dr. Kerr as president of the Oregon Agricultural college, and the club authorized the writing of letters, urging that the educator re main in this state.

For the past week down town win dows have vied with each other In displays of .good things that would tempt the most hardened dyspeptic.

One customer or dered 16 pounds of it at one time. Many orders were received today for special mince, apple and pumpkin pies. The bakery stocked up on prac tically twice the usual amount of sweets and was selling out rapidly early in the day. Poultry In Demand. Two markets had sold completely out of chickens early this morniDg and one had disposed ot Its last tur key. Butchers claim the demand is greater than last year, and many late purchasers may have to take roasts Instead ot birds. Cranberries and cider com next In popularity, with celery following close behind. A carload of apples which one grocery received recently was about at an end today. Fresh stocks of 'fruits and vegetables were selling rapidly. The principal stores In town will be closed tomorrow.
