UN CENTRAL OREGON THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON' Half Cent -Advance For Prunes Paid To Local Growers i An advance of a straight half cent for prunes In all sizes is re ported in the deals that have been made fn the Dallas section during the past few days. One hundred thousand pound3 of 6 0-6 5s, on which the best previous offers had been 6 cents," were sold the latter part of last week to Mangus Bros. of Salem at 6 cents. One local buyer in Dallas re ceived instructions Friday to pur chase 200 tons and most of the or der has already been filled. The sizes included in this purchase are 45-SOs at 8 cents, 50-553 at 7 Mi cents and 55-60 at 7 cents. The market continues very strong and practically all of the large growers are holding for fur ther advances. While reporting that they have covered all of their over-selling by purchasing 600,000 pounds from the Washington Growers associa tion and the acceptance of Inde pendent growers In their pool, the Oregon Growers association is still seking to line up more growers and persistent reports say that they are still short on some sizes. A good idea of how the prunes are sizing up in the lowland or chards around Dallas is to be gained from a glance at the grade sheets of H. A. Woods, one of the largest growers In that neighbor hood. This grade is said to be typical of all of the lowland or chards and shows an absence of 3 0-3 5s, a marked shortage of 35 40s and 40-45s. Of the 171,237 pounds graded the proportions are as follows: 35-40, 796 pounds; 40-45S. 588 pounds; 45-50s, 31,- 359 pounds;' 50-5 5s, . 12,494 pounds; 55-60s, 66,455 pounds 60-708. 52.211 pounds; 70-80s 1654 pounds; 80-90S, 4484 pounds PONZI'S TRIAL Boston, Oct.' 23. Charles Ponzi, whose scheme of quick riches for investors in International postal reply coupons collapsed two years ago, was ready to go on trial in the superior court today on the charges, preferred against him by the state. He now is serving a five year federal sentence for using the mails to defraud. " Ponzi, who had previously said he expected to plead his own case was to be tried on an indictment charging him with larceny, with conspiracy and with being an ac cessory before the fact of larceny Several men who had served him as agents were to be tried on charges of larceny and conspiracy. The Salem King's Food Products company stands willing to pay at any time the money alleged due for prunes delivered by R. A. Mc- Farlane, as soon as the question ot ownership to the land on which they were grown has been settled, according to a communication re ceived from the company by The Capital Journal. ...... A short while ago R. A. McFar- lane instituted suit against the Kings company. He aljeged that he had contracted his prune crop with the company, had delivered it. but had not received all his money. The company explained today that on September 14, Carey F. Martin, as attorney for W. C. Till son, served notice on the company to the effect that Robert McFar lane did not own the. land de scribed in the contract. He further demanded that payment for the prunes be delayed. "McFarlane, having made ver bal demand upon us for payment ot this balance, and Tlllson, by his .attorney, having also made a for mal demand that we withhold such payment, puts this company in a position where It could not pay either party without obligat ing itself to pay for the prunes twice," a statement Issued by the Kings company said. It adds that there Is no question of tha com pany's ability to pay for all pro duce delivered to it. jtti JUSTIFY WOMAN FOR KILLING HER HUSBAND Fresno, Cal., Oct. 23.

B Industrial development, agricul tural development, commercial development, civic improvement, publicity for Salem and Its vicin ity these are Borne of the objec tives of the Salem chamber of commerce, according to J. C. Per ry,, president of the organization. The chamber today began its three-day membership campaign. "Salem has at the present time a well developed industrial life.
