SALEM YOUTH IS ACCLAIMED Albany Harry Wesley of Salem, who rescued Roxana Halas from drawing In Thomas creek last sum mer, when young Wesely lived in Sclo, is the subject of a national feature story In Red Cross adver tising, It was learned here. Wesely, who had been a member of the Junior Red Cross life saving class, rescued the little girl after she had sunk twice beyond his reach, but the-third time he caught her and with difficulty brought her to shore. She was revived and taken to her home. Young Wesely left the scene and told no one of making the daring rescue, It won learned. Later, the modest youth was made a hero by popular acclaim. ANSWERS AWAITED DISBARMENT CASE The Tuesday grist of opinions and orders handed down by the supreme court brought no order in th Joseph-Manntx controversy. Chief Justice Soshow, when ques tioned, said that George Joseph and Thomas Man nix, the Portland lawyers who have each filed dis barment proceedings agalmt the ether, have the statutory one day in which to reply to the answers that each filed In the supreme court Monday. Should these be filed early enough he said the court might consider the pleadings Tuesday, otherwise not until Wed nesday. He Indicated that there would be no delay. It is apparent that the court will refer each cose to a refer ?e or perhaps more thnn one referee, selected from the ctr cult bench of the state. ACREAGE OF WINTER GRASS IS ENLARGED It Is estimated that between 100 and 200 acres of the new oua but bona or winter blue grass have been planted In this section, some last year and some plantings go ing in this year. Last year's plant ings In some case showed com plete success while In others an other winter must tell whether they will work out or not. For In stance. Linn Davidson, on hts Murningslde place, planted quite a food sized acreaite along Twelfth street Just out the city llmlte last year and had a wonderful stand which turned the entire hillside green through the winter. He pas tured sheep on it a part of the time. Whether tt Is coming bark will be shown by winter rains. He has been under the impression It may prove a iaiiure another year, but as the grass remains dry dur ing the summer another season will be required to tell the storv. On the other hand some of the plantings hare worked out big ac cording to reports, enough so that snore trials are being made this fall in new acreages. CLOVER SEED 15 CENT Clover seed which produced around a quarter of a crop here this year u now selling for IS rata without much buying trie low est price since 1010 regardless of the extremely abort crop In the nlley. However. In 1I, when aeed was selling at around 14 and IS cents the farmers made more money as they had a big crop and ready buying market. A very heavy crop in the east la given as the reason for the present low rice. Farmers have been accus tomed the past few years to re ceiving 39 cents or better lor their I clover teed.

PRICES FIRM IN PRUNE TRADE A report to the United States De partment of Commerce advises that the production of dried Yugoslav there prunes of new crop available for export Is estimated by the trade there at a maximum of 13,200 short tons. The quality Is below average but the demand Is improving and prices are firm, says the California Fruit News. Revised estimates now place the French prune crop this year In the Bordeaux area at 3,850 short tons, according to advices from Consul Lucien Memminger to the United States Department of Agriculture. EstimaU a few weeks ago placed the probable yield at 5,500 short tons but the early predictions con cerning damage by frost in April have been verified and It is found that the yield of the trees was great ly curtaiiled. The market demand at Bordeaux for foreign prunes is dull at the present, Mr. Memminger says, and local dealers do not expect much business In California prunes this year. This Is due not only to the higher prices asked for Califor nia stock this year but also to the abundant crop of fresh fruits In France, particularly of apples. It is also stated that fairly large stocks of California prunes are still on hand there from last year.

CHICAGO WHEAT PRICES SUFFER NEW SETBACK Chicago, (JPi Sharp new set backs in wheat values here went hand in hand Tuesday with Liver pool quotations much lower than looked for.

SENATE TOLD OF BOOZEBANQUET Contlnued from page 1) dinner was between Otto Kahn of Kahn Loeb and company, and E. E. Loomis of J. P. Morgan and com pany. Neither Senator smoot, repuD- llcan, Utah, the late Senator Good ing, republican, Idaho, nor him self took any of the flasks "but some of the other boys helped themselves and the Wall street bunch was quite active In that re spect," the Iowa senator said. "As lor the others they can an swer for themselves as to whether they got any," he added. President Pro Tern of the sen ate, George W. Moses, republican. New Hampshire, urged that he at tend the dinner, Brookhart said. "Wei . the first fellow l met when I got there was Otto Kahn. I looked over the bunch and It seemed to me there waa something doing." After a time there were Intro ductions around and I met the so- called distinguished Senator-Elect Vare of Pennsylvania. Then some one lifted up a curtain from a table or book case." SILVER FLASKS "There was a rack of beautiful silver flasks and the word went around that they were filled with Scotch," Brookhart continued. "Somebody said: "Help yoursell. Brookhart said he did not help hl .iself and then absolved the oth er senators named. Kahn brought up the question 01 railroad consolidation, Brookhart said. I have always contended $7, 000,000,000 In rail capitalization should be squeezed out," he added. I told Kahn, 'that you ve got a man named Westervelt out In Iowa fighting me and praising the New York stock exchange." "A few minutes later," Brookhart added, "the same conversation oc curred with Mr. Loomts on my right." POURED OUT LIQUOR Loomis, Brookhart said, poured some of the liquor from his hip flask and mixed it with water and drank It at the table. The late Senator Gooding, Idaho, was similarly approached by rail road men, he said. "Then the party was over, and Gooding and 1 broke away," Brookhart continued. "As we were leaving the Junior senator from New Jersey approached me Here he looked toward Senator Walter Edge, New Jersey, recently designated by President Hoover to be ambassndor to France. Edge laughed. Brookhart continued: "The senator said to me 'Do you know where you have been and don't you feel contaminated? You have had Ktlhn, Leob and Company on one side and J. P. Morgan company on the other "I said I believe X was lnnocu lated." POLE CAT CLUB Th?n Brookhart read a letter he received Tuesday from "Roger W. Mintone, Qulncy Hotel, Boston. Mass., suggesting that he. Bcpok- hart. was qualifying as a charter member of the polecat club" by telling on his hoft. Brookhart said no one can tell me what Is my duty." "That's what Is the trouble in this country. It's these secret so cieties of hteh society who connive to violate the law. "This Is nothing new. I had the same experience when I was pros ecuting attorney in Iowa. "I want to say to members of the United States senate, get out of these booze parties. You don't need hip flasks as mementos." There was a sllenee as Brookhart sat down and then Moses In the chair stated the pending tariff question. At the outset Brookhart read a newspaper editorial stating that every one knew congressmen drank. Brookhart said he would go be fore a grand Jury here Wednesday and answer questions about liquor parties In Washington because United States senator ought not to claim exemption. New York 4v-tto Kahn. who was said bv Senator Brookhart of Iowa, before the senate Tuefdav to have sat beside Mm at the "Wall stret booze party dinner In Wash ington, refused to comment on the matter. At the home of Walter J. Fahy. Wall street broker, who gave the dinner, It was said that "Mr. Fahy has no comment to make.

TURKISH FILBERTS REPORTED FAILURES The new Turkish filbert crop is apparently a failure, says a report to the United States Department of Commerce, reported in the Califor nia Fruit News. It is a confirmed fact that the malady which affected the filberts in the Black Sea re gion has caused serious losses. As result, the new production is bound to be exceedingly limited. It is reported that the spread of the disease has been sporadic and. therefore, no reliable estimates re garding approximate losses can be established. It is. however, an es tablished fact that the present har vest will be the smallest ever seen. This situation has dbturbed all fil bert markets. The Italian market. like Constantinople and the Black Sea centers, accordingly increased their prices. RETl'RNS ON TEARS Returns on late pear shipments have Just been received by Paul Wallace and Lloyd Reynolds who this year again handled their late pear shipments jointly rather than selling to an outride operator. Re turns show fair on D Anjou, cornice and Boso varieties but were consid ered small on Clairgeaus. In one car Reynolds handled 500 boxes and Walllace 300 boxes and It Is under stood that Wallace shipped out three additional ears of the late varieties. An Address By DR. CORNISH Of Boston THE INTERNATIONAL MIND IN RELIGION Unitarian Church, 8 P. M., Tonight YOU ARE INVITED STOCK MARKET TONE APPEARS NORMAL AGAIN New York (JPh-The stock market was closed Tuesday because of the election after an isolated session in which prices showed a net de cline of two to 17 points on a turn over of 6.202,930 shares. The rally which was expected when the market opened Monday after a two-day selling holiday, failed to develop and in its place appeared selling pressure which was the dominant note throughout an orderly session. The volume of trade and range of prices was regarded by operators as normal contrasted with b'-'havlor of the market last week when after a wild selling stampede on Tuesday In which 16,140,030 shares were dumped, the market- came back sharptly in a three-hour session Thursday with gains up to 36 points and ft total of 7,149.390 shares. For the first day since October 24, the beginning of the big slump, the ticker was able to keep close to the market. It closed 30 min utes after the last sale. Curtailed sessions from 10 a. m. to 1 p. m. Wednesdav, Thursday and Friday with complete suspen- siion of business Saturday has been ordered by the board of gov ernors of the stock exchange and officials of the curb exchange In a further effort to permit brokerage houses to catch up with the book keeping entailed by the tremendous volume of trade last week. It was found that the two-day holiday over the week end had not afforded sufficient time for over-worked staffs to complete their tasks. The collapse of security prices last week was the reason given In a petition for a receivership filed in federal court Monday against the Bankers' Capital corporation, a Wall street Investment trust com pany. Two brokerage houses were sus pended by the curb exchange last week for failure to meet their ob ligations as a result of the decline in security prices. Various reasons were ascribed to the sag in prices which contradicted forecasts of an advancing market, predicted largely on statements that a large volume of buying or ders had accumulated over the week end on favorable financial news. The sale of stock bought for sup porting purposes during the decline; profit taking by traders who bought for ft turn when prices were fall ing; selling by shorts who expected the best prices at the opening, and the closing out of weak margin accounts were some of the factors mentioned to explain the downward trend. BERRY PACKS CLEANED OUT (Continued from page 1) enteles In the world, will be In oper ation in full blast in their new plant on Front street in another year and this in itself Is of major importance in Its bearing on the situation. Those who are in the know says that the situation has reached a point for the first time in many years, where some serious consider ation may be given to possible ad ditional berry plantings -in this sec tion. Not that any boom along these lines is contemplated or even men tioned but that a scientific carefully worked out program covering the whole fruit field should be inaugu rated and carried through Is agreed to by ft number of men who have Salem's future as ft fruit center deeply at heart. For Instance, W. G. Allen, district manager of Hunt brothers, dean of the cannery business here and fruit man himself on a large scale, is completely sold on such a plan and advocates It. "I am not in a position to be ac tively connected with the working out of 8'ich a program further than I nm naturally intensely interested In the fruit situation here from, a b;ibiness standpoint and as a citi zen," stated Mr. Allen. 'But it Is true all factors have met this fall to make a survey of the fruit situation and consideration of fruit program for the future. something of extreme importance to the community. "For the first time in years we have arrived at the point where all berries, from gooseberries on, show a clean slate and we face a situa tion whrre I haven't the 5litrhtest TO SAVE GAS?

He also wants County and State Agencies everywhere to make $250 to $1,000 per month. adv. doubt that If 1930 delivers ft normal crop of fruit throughout every bit of it will be in demand. "In some lines, such as loganber ries for Instance, fair percentages of the plantings have worn out and need rejuvenation by new plantings. In fact I believe that a conserv ative planting could be made in most lines of berries. But how much and how many presents another phase of the prob lem. It seems to me it would be well worth while for the community through substantial business men to organize a survey of the fruit situa tion leading up to a planting pro gram rationally outlined and carried through. I beleive it is safe to say that we stand on the eve in this section, of a period of underproduction for the demands of the canneries in the community unless some such step Is taken. "I want to be understood that I am not advocating any planting boom, any promiscuous planting of any kind of fruit. But I have reach ed the conclusion that the district as a whole could bear a percentage of Increased production without Im pairing general market conditions over a period of years and with a good chance of complete absorption of the production." When it is considered that not only the entire canned pack of ber ries has been absorbed, but in addi tion to that, that the entire cold pack, the biggest yet put up here, has also moved out, there is further rea son to give serious consideration to looking into the possibilities of in creasing fruit production in this part of the valley. Not only has the j entire cold pack moved out, but , there is also considerable inquiry coming in as to next year's cold pack output from eastern buyers, showing a good reception already for the 1929 cold pack. It looks from this angle, that the cold pack for 1930 will show a substantial increase over this year and this year's pack was far ant away ahead of last year when the experiment was first tried out on anything like a real commercial scale. While there was a short pack oL loganberries this year, nevertheless there has been a complete clean-up them and virtually the entire crop for 1930 has already been con tracted on a 5 cent basis and the outlook is good for a possible use of more than production unless next year shows a surprisingly large yield. The blackberry situation is also reported as slightly Improved over the year just closing. That pack has moved out along with the rest of them and the demand, it is believed, will be good. This is true along the line. Cherries have been disposed of and in every way fruit growers here face a year which is fraught with exceptional possibilities from what can be gathered by numerous in quiries. It is thought likely that a plan for a fruit planting program will be given more than ordinary consider ation this year. The fruit crop means millions of dollars to Salem and the surrounding territory and the fact that it may be enhanced by more makes the plan one not to be pushed lightly aside. Vienna (JP) Vienna's hair dres sers, through the Austrian Coif feurs association, have addressed an appeal to the International Hairdressers' Congress asking that body to rescind a declaration in favor of long hair for women. Shav ing feminine necks has become a lucrative business here, and the lo cal barbers fear it will be wiped out by the new style edict.

This Is an exception; as a general rule canneries handle apples here well up to Thanksgiving or some times Into early September. Lloyd Reynolds on the Pacific highway is seeing his apple crop harvest about cleaned up. The main crop at his place was contracted for by the penitentiary and 14 trusty convicts were used In the picking. He states he hasn't received returns from the prison yet as to the yield but it Is not as heavy as usual.
