PAHFTRN THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON SATURDAY. DECEMBER 21, 1929 BUTTER SUPPLY INCREASING TO DEPRESS PRICE Portland (IP) Surprising Increas es In butter production throughout the United States continue in spite of the winter weather In most sec tions. The great Increase in the seasonable churning has added ad ditional weakness to an already badly depressed trade situation. The greater make along with the almost record hole::?,; of butter la store, are factors that tend to cre ate only lower prices In leading markets of the country. While there was no change in the local egg price for the day. further easiness is Indicated In the Calif ornia trade. Local lay Is reported as showing little change in volume. There was practically no change In the live chicken demand for the week end. Late arrivals have been scant. This appears all that has kept the price where It stands. Improved trading tone continues In the market for country killed calves although prices are little changed. Hogs are fully steady and the lamb situation Is favorable. With a further gain in the sup ply reported, the market for po tatoes reflects a generally weak tone locally as well as at primary points of the Pacitic Northwest. Onions shaw a like condition. Most local retailers are loyal to the local cranberry Industry altho some are featuring eastern stock even at higher prices than locals. The latter are considerd of best quality. Even Astoria is selling east ern cranberries. Demand for walnuts Is now sea sonable with the Oregon stock tak ing almost the entire trade. Fil berts are very scarce and firmly priced. Almonds are almost too high to force a movement. REID-MURBCCK ADVERTISE SALEM Some time ago the chamber of commerce took up with Held, Mur doch It Company, with headquarters In Chicago, the matter of giving 8alem credit for fruit packed here. 8. P. Stevens, vice president and manager of the company, in a let. ter to B. E. Slsson, president of the chamber of commerce, states: "We arc glad to say that we not alone plan to do this, but have long ago taken steps to have all goods packM at Salem under our Mon arch brand carry a picture of our factory there. We are enclosing a couple of sample labels to show you just how this will be done. "We are as pleased and proud to be privileged to operate there as Salem and Oregon are to have us."

GRANGE TO QUIZ FL1BUC RECORDS "I am glad to see that the granRe Is taking steps toward appointment of a county committee to investigate county affairs and county officials." stated County Commissioner John Porter. "As a member of the county court I would be glad to have all of the activities of the court Investigated from any angle desired during the several years I have been connected with It. I am sure every member of the court would give the fullest co oprcatton to any authorized com mute as there is nothing the court does or has done but it would like to submit to the fullest public scru tiny. However, we believe an investi gation of this nature should cover the entire field. "We believe that any Investiga tion which Is made should cover all offices with which the county Is connected and not Just be applied to one. "For instance we believe It should possibly start with the county court as the chief money spending body of the county and should Include the circuit Judges as well as other county officials. "There Is certainly nothing sacred about the county court that the peo ple who pay the bills should not know about and I believe the same thing holds true about other courts and other offices. "Yes, we would welcome such an investigation, but when it is done it should be very thorough and cover both the activities and Inac tivities, II any, of all our officials."

AMELIA DENIES KUMOR Los Angeles (LP) Amelia Ear heart, noted woman flyer, denied here Friday that she is egaged to marry George Palmer Putnam, pub lisher. "There Is nothing to that ru mor. " she said In commenting on a report from Chicago. "I am not engaged to anyone. Mr. Putnam is my publisher that's all." THE WAY to avoid a div ision of property which - may work undeserved hardship is to make a will immediately. " ' No bank in Oregon is al lowed to draw wills; that is the business of an attorney. LWe suggest an interview .with' our Trust Officer and then a consultation with the attorney who will draw ykur vrill. s, Wills in which" we are named as Executor or Trus tee may be left with us for safekeeping without ex pense. . Ladd & Bush Trust Company SALBM, OREGON STOCK MARKET WRESTED FROM BEAR ELEMENT New York (Pi The stock market staged a brisk recovery Saturday after an early period of Irregularity. Extreme gains In a long list of ac tive issues ranged from I to 10 pointa, with only a few soft spots cropping out here and there as be lated tax selling and liquidation of weakened speculative accounts made its appearance. Trading was fair ly heavy in volume for a half holi day session. There was nothing In the diy's news to account for the sudden change of speculative sentiment, leading to the belief that the mar ket had been oversold, at least tem porarily. Bear traders, apparently unable to dislodge any large volume of stock, rushed to cover a floor traders bought stocks neavuy ior a turn. Publication of the interstate com merce commission's revised consoli dation plan, which was alons the lines of the unofficial summary published Friday, failed to stimulate much interest in the railroad shares.

Fox Film rallied more than 4 points from Friday's low while Combustion pre ferred, which toucned a new iuw i 18's on Thursday jumped 7'i points to 34-'.. U. S. Steel Common, Anaconaa Copper. Dupont, Public Service oi New Jersey and Gillette Safety Ra zor were among the many issues to show gains of 2 points or more. The closing was strong, xoiaw approximated 1,150,000 shares.
