Feb. 26 An easier trend In othi-r coast centers has brought about a halt In udvancing egg pricej locally. On the ex change values are ported steady on graded stocks while current rr ceiptn are a half cent off at 2b cents. With extrns uuoiei) at 33 cents the Portland market is consider ed out of line with the south and a reaction to lower levels is con sidered likely by the Jobbing trade Early storage activltien were res ponsible for the recent upwaid swing and while supplies are ac tually .'ihort ul the present, local upcratois are adverse to putting away many February eggs. The actual storage movement will not be under wav tnti! the middle of March when quality will be bti ter and storage safer.

Feb. 26 Oregon's In itial shipment of flax, 1$ tons of it, the quotation on whiR-h was 33 cents a pound, f. o. D. Salem, war stowed yesterday aboard the steam er Pennsylvania, deatlued for Uos ton. A following lot abso has been booked by the American-Hawaiian Steanudiip company to move neat week on the molorshlp Callfornian. In arranging for the tramipoila tlon of the product, which is held to presage a regular demand, C I). Kennedy, manuger of the Port land agency of the big lntercoastal fleet. Insured it be in if carried un der special care, Robert Crawford of Sulrm, su perintendent of the Oregon stale flax industry, personalty looked after the consignment at terminal No. 1. E. It. Morris, manager of the Indiihtry department of the Chamber of Commerce, was pres ent as well. The fibre was prepar ed in bahs. covered with burlap securely sewed, and on the outside of that were strips of wood, heav ier than laths, that were held by wire. Each bale weighed cIjho to 250 pounds. The flax was of the 1923 hat vest, when about 2000 acres were under cultivation, ex plained Mr. Crawford, and In 1924 there were 3000 acres devoted to the crop. The flax is utilised in the manufacture of linen go-ids, also thread of various kinds, such as for ordinary newln? as well as harness thread and fish twine. PLOT TO KILL RICH COUPLE IS CONFESSED (Continued from Page One) attempt had been culled to the attention of the police and a private detective agency. King, according to the police, said he met the millionaire in La Report. Cal.. and arranged the murder details there. The gun men were to be retained and to acquaint themselves with the ap peranoe and habits of the Hotal ings so that they could perpetrate the murders quickly and quietly and make a clean escape. "Lou' and "Al" were subse quently retained and agreed to kill the Ilotalings. They hired quarters near the Hotaling home and watched their intended vic tims closply. They apparently changed their plans, however, without telling King, for they are supposed to have left the poisoned milk at the borne rather than do the shooting agreed upon. King denied all knowledge of the poisoned milk, nlthough admitting all other details of the plot, ac cording to the police, lie said he could offer no motive for the murder plot. The arrest of the millionaire plotter is fs expected today. He Is believed to be in San Francisco. "IjOU,' who is also known as "Itussian Lou" admitted his part in the plot detailed by King, but also denied all knowledge of the poisoned milk. He suggested that it might have been a supplement ary plot "to back up" the gun plot in the event (hat the gunmen did not go through with their work. "I did not intend to kill any body," "Lou" said, according to the police. "I was going to take the money and then forget about the killing. That is just what I did." The police said that they bad evidence that the money was passed to the gunmen in the prea ence of three witnesses, one of them a taxleab driver who aided in the Introduction of King to the gunmen. Certain of these wit nesses expected to "hijack" the money from the gunmen and fol lowed their taxicab in another car for this purpose. The murder conspirators were soon lost In a traffic jam, however, and escaped, ONION OUTPUT Statistics compile.1 by the bureau of agricultural economics give In teresting data on Oregon onion production for a period of years, the bulk of Oregon merchantable onions coming from fci.ileiu terri tory.

SALEM, OREGON FIRST SHIPMENT OF BROCCOLI FROM RIDDLE Roseburir, Feb 36 The first car load of broccoli to bs shipped from the county, was moved from Kid dls today. The car will probably be sold In Seattle. It Is expected that there will be one carload very other day for about two weeks, and that there will then ben a few days break between the early crop and the late broccoli. The market so far has been very unsteady, prices oi $ 1 to $ 1.7 J per crate being received. The lo cal market is offering 76 cents to $1. Karly estimates are that there will be less than 100 carloads thlh season. That a chaotic condition In the prune markets in Germany is res ponsible for a stagnant prune mar ket and that the exaggerated esti mate of the 1924 crop as compil ed by pacce-s has nothing to do with it Is the thei-y of Itobeit C. Paul us. At the same time he Mates the market Is not altogether dead as he says Tr:ty of Dallas yester day sold a car of 6Cs, that he him self had Inquiry on 3000 boxes of f-0s yesterday and inquiries still come In. "I talked on long dta'ane yes terday to two big H.bn Francisco operators," stated Pan I us. "Kach of hese told me of the situation in the German market. It appears that Germany bought consllerably nbova Its demands and are now sell Ing at less than the prunes can be bought for In California. Not only are prunes offered this way in oermany but German holders are oncring mem in is way all over Europe, which naturally has kill ed thise markets. "Germany bought large quanti ties of its prunes In sacks, be cause prunes in sacks go In under a low tariff and prunes In boxes under a hlsh tariff. The object of the government is to force erec tion of factories and employ mote people. California dealers are much exercised over the situation as they say the prunes are pack ed promiscuously and b?lng offer ed ns Santa Claras regardless of where they come from. Oregon prunes niuat be packed as Oregons as they have a distinction all their own. "The New York market J am advised is supplied for two months to come with everything It wants but 30s. We should be getting busy from Canada and the middle wet and 1 look for the prunes to move out." Tallinn stales he has made a earcful check and is satisfied that there are no more than 7,000. 000 pounds of prunes left in the northwest. "The San Francisco operators I talked to yesterday were not con cerned with what our total produc tion was for 1324, but they wanted to know how manv we have left." said Paulus. NAVAL HEAD TINS FAITH IN BATTLESHIPS (Continued from Page One) few years," aid Admiral Jones, "we would know better how to spend the money allotted ue. But as it Is .ft is my personal opinion that all units that make up the national defense should be ready for Immediate duty." "Is the navy ready for such ser vice?" asked Representative Prnll, democrat. New York. "There are a great many things we would like done," the admiral replied, "especially in construction of aircraft and sub marine protection." Aoked what would be the effect of a two thousand pound bomb dropped from an airplane on a battleship, the admiral said that if It were not an armor piercing bomb, "the effect probably would be local" with no ecrloue damage to the ship's motive power or the personnel in enclosed places. Admiral Jones testified that two 1400 pound non-explosive "shells" were dropped from an airplane on the battleship Wash ington, .one of which "struck fair" on the ships deck, the oth er missing. The one that struck failed to penetrate the deck, he added. "The Washington was finally sunk by gunfire?" was asked by uepresentative Perkins, republi can. New Jersey. "No. It was the cumulative ef fect of all fire," Admiral Jones re plied. "Don't you think you might have obtained some benefits by winking the Washington with bombs?" "No, I don't think so. as we learned much about bomhing f ships from tests on the German ehips in 1921." Admiral Jones said he regret ted the bombing tests had been so much debated. "Let me say here," he added, that certain people have im pugned the honor of officers con ducting the tests on the German ship Ostfriesland and it has been unfair. Naval officers before have tried to learn all (hat is possible about the effect of airplane bomb ing of surface ships.

SLACK DEMAND FOR PRUNES DUE TO GERMANY fjiililu GOOSEBERRIES SOLD SUBJECT TO INSPECTION The 3000 cases of gooseberries which have been held by th i Falls City cannery packed from the 1924 crop and reported as uUil unsold have been sold fcubject to appro val of nam pies according to Rob ert C. Puulus. Paulus further states that the pack of the West ern Oregon Packing company at Corvalils also has been sold on the Kline basis and that leaves In the valley only two or three lots of gooseberries to be sold. What the growers will get from the goose berries held by the Falls City can ning company, is not known, but a guess Is made at alon-; about 4 cents a pound. Some of thse ber ries were bought at 7H cents and others were consigned. There still is considerable of a dab of canned gooseberries held in the sound country. Puulus states that he sold a con siderable number of od Is and ends lately In canned good lines, the canners getting their full prices. An offer for a car of cherries he stated was rejected yesterday be cause the offer was a quarter of a cent below the canner's asking price. lie states that canned aimles are now held in very few hands ac far i:s packers nre concerned and are selling at from $4.50 to $4.75. with emphasis on the latter price.

STATE PLACED IN REAL HOLE BY GOVERNOR (Continued from Pane One) 10 per cent of their fee collections into the general fund, and still an other bill levying a 10 per cent tax on all forma of tobacco. Yesterday afternoon the senate passed the public utilities tax, the 10 per cent remission bill and, after excluding from its provisions cigars and chewing tobacco, ap proved the tobacco tax bill. But they also amended the tobacco tax bill by removing the emergency clause, and thereby hangs the tale. 1 ho house this morning con curred In the senate amendments, and as soon as it Is signed by the speaker and president of the sen ate it will go to the governor. As the situation stand npproprla tions for the coming two years ex ceed visible revenues, excluding the problemetlcal revenue to be de rived from the tobacco tax and the public utilities tax, by more than $1,500.0)0.
