BUTTER PRICES
YET MIXED UP;
EGGS STEADY
rortliiij iP) So ujjui complaints
are being made regarding the un
willingness of the Portland produce
exchange to follow supply and de
mand In the butter trade that Its
quotations are no longer generally
accepted as a market factor.
With practically all of the sales
of cubes on the open market from
S to Pi cent pound under the es
tablished prices on the produce ex
change the situation here la be
coming more or less desperate to
country creameries who are forced
to pay the price established here
for butterfat.
While there was no open change
In the price of eggs for the day.
some business continues to be done
at shaded figures. Undertone of
the market appears a trifle easier.
While the trade In general In
clines to the Idea that only medium
hens are scarce, one buyer went
out with an advance of one cent
for lights which was Immediately
followed by other operators.
Quite heavy sales of cranberries
continue to be made in the local
trade with both northwest and
eastern stock participating. Some
very poor locals as well as very
poor eastern stock offering.
Good demand for cauliflower
continues In the local trade with
earlot buying held around 65 cents
crate for ones although some other
cash buying for northwest ship
ment la reported at 70-75 cents
crate.
Topheavy appearance Is continued
in the market for celery. Shipping
business Is at a minimum owing to
congestion of supplies In the mid
west and east. Rejected cars are
being sold at extremely low figures.
Last of the season's fresh halibut
Is now arriving here from northern
waters. The trade Is getting quite a
supply and prices are down to 20
cents for medium.
There Is every promise of an acute
shortage of native or Olympian oy
sters here for the com lag holiday.
In fact a shortage Is apparent all
along the coast. Transplanted or
large stock Is In ample supply.
Country killed lambs are cleanup
but are slower.
Dressed hogs arc fairly steady as
are veal of quality.
Chinook salmon Is scarce around
18 cents with a scarcity of silvers
at 14 cents pound.
Crabs are very scarce.
Sharp advance In the price of
California artichokes Is confirmed.
Only nominal supply here.
The regular California steamer
with vegetable specialties, was late
In arriving.
Good demand continues for hot
house tomatoes and cucumbers at
recent advances.

B UArTlAL, JUUKNAL,
PRICE OF WHEAT1
TO STAND FIRM ;
MILNOR CLAIMS;
. I
I
Chicago (IP) Tht federal govern- I
merit has taken steps to prevent the
present wheat price levels from
dropping lower although g further
decline in domestic prices appears
unwarranted, George 8. Milnor,
president of the grain stabilization
corporation, said Friday.
"Although the stocks of wheat
shown in the visible supply are
large." Milnor said, "there is no
congestion In any of the terminal
markets and farm stocks of the
grain are decreasing rapidly owing
to heavy feeding, therefore hedging
pressure Is negligible and a further
decline In domestic prices seems un
warranted."
With wheat selling at the lowest
price in 25 years, flour prices fully
reflecting those of wheat and with
bread lower than for many years,
the consumer Is receiving the full
benefits of complete deflation, he
said.
"As the grain stabilization cor
poration has taken steps to prevent
lurther decline In wheat prices, it
may be assumed that consumers
of wheat products, with reasonable
safety, may make purchases lor their
seasonable requirements, thus pro
tecting themselves against such ad
vances in the market as might come
through many underlying factors."
The advances might cone, it was
explained, through such factors as
greater bread consumption, suosti
tutlon of wheat for corn In live
stock feeding, huge losses to corn
and forage by drought, reduced
acreage sown to wheat and many
hazards through which the growing
crop must pass before it can be
harvested.
The Stabilization corporation, af
filiated with the federal farm board,
recently pegged the price of De
cember wheat on the Chicago ex

price.
CHICAGO GRAIN
CLOSES HIGHER
Chicago fP Wheat Friday rose
to nearly 6 cents a bushel above
the low prices current November 10.
Absence of unusual pressure to sell
was an outstanding factor, rather
than buying urgency. It was esti
mated export purchases of Canadi
an wheat have totaled upward of
3,500,000 bushels since Monday and
there were Intimations Russian
grain vessel charters might be can
celled or utilized for substitution of
ore.
Wheat closed unsettled to Vi
cents a bushel higher than Thurs
day's finish. Corn closed to H
cent up with oats 14 cents advanc
ed. Under scattered selling, provi
sions eased in the late trading, and
closed unchanged to 7 cents lower.
Chicago JP) Substantial new up
turns In wheat values took place
early Friday following a fresh ad
vance of cent In bids on the part
of farm board allies. Rust reports
from Argentina were also a bmlish
factor and so, too, were statements
from the grain stabilization cor

safely purchase their seasonable re
quirements. Opening i-" cent

FRENCH SOOTHSAYER
PREDICTS NEW WAR
Paris (IP) Madame Frays., sooth
sayer who predicted a World war in
1914 and announced that the
French would stop the Germans at
the Marne three days before the
battle, declared today France would
again defeat Germany in another
World mar which will start in Po
land "a few years from now,'
'Germany,' she explained, has
entered into an era of disorder and
anarchy, evidently very menacing
for France. I do not believe, how
ever, that France is in Immediate
danger. Germany will weaken her
self in internal fights which will in
crease her poverty and unemploy
ment. "The conflict, In which Poland
will be tlie first victim, appear to
me to be several years distant. It
will, however, generalize itself
quickly and all of our NfW Europe
will become involved. France mil
I fight and I do not see her beaten."

RAILROAD LIST
ADVANCES UPON
CLOSING RALLY
New York, (LP) Railroad stocks
I came to the forefront on the stock
I exchange late Friday to feature a
market or rising prices, stocits
closed with subtantial gains In all
divisions.
There was considerable Irregul
arity In the first hour and tor a
time the market appeared to be on
the verse of another reaction. The
bull forces conquered and forced
shorts to cover.
The late move in the railroads
followed group advances In the mo
tors, motor equipments, mercantile
shares, harvester shares and chemi
cals. Leading Industrials made new
highs on the movement headed by
U. S. Steel and Westinghouse Elec
tric. The move In rails was stimulated
by several factors, the most lm
prtant bHiig an analysis by Dow
Jones and Co saying that the roads
in the linl quarur should make
a much better showing in net oper
ating income, as compared w Uh
last year than they d:d in the first
nine month.

carriers maintaining dividends at
the present rates were considered

7 points. Atchison rose more than
4 point, N. Y. C. 6: New Haven
nearly 3 and Pennsylvania nearly
3, while gains ranging above a
point were made by others of the
group.
Trading volume was small in the
early trading but It increased. The
sudden spurt In rails stilt shorts
scurrying to cover and turnover in
creased in this division.
Another feature of th? day was
a concerted rise In various clocks
whose companies center aiound the
Chicago area. The harvester issues
made large gains, esprciaily Case

Chrysler was a feature In the
motors where General Motors.
Studebakcr, Overland, Yellow

conierrnce or on the senate calen
dar.'' Norris explained he preferred
particularly to the bills to permit
government operation of Muscle
Shoals, to restrict injunction pow
ers or the courts, and lor unem
ployment relief and to his resolu
tion to abolish such short sessions
of congress as this one."
"I am axnious,' he continued, "to
Rive the senate an opportunity to
reeleem party pledges. If the admin
istration will withdraw Its opposition
we will do it. If these bills are not
acted upon it may be necoesary to
force action by special session which
jean easily be done. The machine re-
pubiicans who hitherto have block
ed the resolution to end short or
;amc duck sessions may have to take
a bitter does of their own medicine."
Norris said the only constructive
program before congress was that
offered by the progressives and in
effect his statement was a chal-
ne.e to President Hoover to con
tinue opposition to those bills. Nor
ris outlined 24 years of concurrent
legislative work which had brought
tiiree of the projects to the present
stage. The anti-injunction bill rep
resents two years work; Muscle
Shoals has been pending 12 years; ,
ana tne snort resolution is now in
its tenth year, having been passed
by the senate five times but never
accepted by the house.
On Its last appearance In tlie

ate resolution had been kept for 10
months on the desk of Speaker

TRUTH IN MEAT
BILL FAVORED
Range cattle men In Oregon favor
proposed legislation tltat will permit
the grading and marking of meats
according to the "truth in meats'
plan sponsored by O. M. Plummer,
secretary of the Pacific Internation
al Livestock exposition and member
of the national meat board, eays
Dr. W. H. Lytle, state veterinarian.
"There is a complaint by many of
the range breeders who raise only
well-bred beef animals that they do
not realize the true worth of their
produce because they are forced to
compete with dairy cow beef that
Is sold in many shops," Lytle said.
He said that Oregon State college
has conducted an educational cam
paign for the instruction ol house
wives in the selection of meats.
While this has done something to
ward insuring a more just return to
producer, Dr. LHle said, the fact
that most meats are ordered by tele
phone causes much dairy cow meat
to reach the consumer's table un
less top prices are paid.
"It is planned to enact legisla-
Won," he said, "that will optionally
permit tho.se slaughterers of meat
who choose to employ a board-approved
veterinarian to health m-
j bpect the meat and stamp it, and
hiw gratie una sia:i:p u su iijul me
quaUty will be shown.'
AHY ADOPTS
ROBBER TIRES
Washington "J") The rumble of
artillery caissons on steel-rimmed
wheels probably will be replaced by
the swish of rubber tires on con
crete roads in any future war, tt
appeared from the annual report of
Maj. Gen. Harry O. Bishop, chief
of army artillery.
Describing the new and revolu
tionary developments in artillery
since World war days. Bishop said
the army, during the past year, had
built and tested two super-modem
'5 mm. gun mounts. Both are cap
able of all around and aerial fire.
Also, both have pneumatic tires,
anti-friction bearings and sprung
carriages.
Plans are being made for a sim
ilar gun in the 155 mm.-8 inch
howitzer class. It will have a ped
estal type mount and will be cap
able oi elevations between 0 de
Rrees and 65 degrees and of traver
sing 30 degrees on either side of
the center. Further, it will be cap
able of Kointr into and out of posi
tion quickly. weighing- o.uuu
pounds less than the present 155
mm. gun used by the army, it will
be able to cross lighter bridges in
safety.
Other modern additions to army
artillery during the past year have
been caterpillar tractors for two
motorized divisional field artillery
units and 24 four-wheel-drive cargo
trucks, Bishop said.
