FORECAST CUT
CUBE BUTTER
FOR WEEK END
Portland May 21 (IP) The cutting
of cube butter prices on the produce
exchange for the week-end sessions
was forecast and generally expected.
Extras, prune first and first were
each down 1 cent pound for the
session with standard off i cent.
The standard was recently cut 'A
cent, therefore Its quotation for re
cent days showed the sharpest cut.
With the make of butter still of
huge volume and increasing gener
ally at practically all Pacific north
west points, the trade has been hard
put recently to find a suitable out
let, Inasmuch as California has been
full of butter.
The cut of butterfat buying price
1 cent to 15 cents generally for
Portland delivery, was automatic
with the butter drop.
Price cutting is more or less fairly
general in the market for eggs local
ly although the co-ops continue to
name former prices as the selling
level. Receipts continue heavy and
. demand for storage is easier. Very
good demand is continued in the
market for live chickens of all
sorts. All country killed meats arc
showing as easier feeling.
"Ihere is a beter movement of
home grown lettuce. Arrivals of
peas from The Dalles are lncrca.
lng. Slightly slower trade Is sug-
gested in the market for asparagus.
BARKER CHOSEN
AS GRADUATION
DAY SPEAKER
Burt Brown Barker, vice presi
dent of the University of Oregon
former resident of Balem and prom
inent throughout the state as
speaker, has been secured to de
liver the commencement day ad
dress to members of the graduating
class of Salem senior high school,
Friday, June 3, at the Elslnore thea-
' ter. Announcement of the selection
of a speaker to address the largest
graduating class In the history of
Salem high school was made Sat
urday by Superintendent George
Hug.
Mr. Brown, who years ago attend
ed the old Central school in Salem,
for a number of years has desired
to make the commencement day
address but It was not until this
year that circumstances were such
that It could be arranged. He wired
his acceptance from Pendleton.
With the exception of a fow min
or details, virtually all plans for
the graduating exercises are now
complete. Rev. Orover T. Birtchet
of the First Presbyterian church
will deliver the baccalaureate ser
mon from his pulpit Sunday night.
May 29.
It is hoped the exercises at the
Elslnore theater can be run off
within two hours although it is
realized that with more than 340
diplomas to hand out, the process
will necessarily be a long one. Prin
cipal Wolf believes this process can
be speeded up through a more sys
tematic method of getting the
students on and off the stage.

been repaired and eveythusg Is now
ready for the coming season, which
will start with the canning of goose
berries Friday or Saturday of this
week.
After the gooseberries, canning of
strawberries will start All the grow
ers who delivered berries here last
year will be taken care of by the
cannery this year.
A great deal of discussion has
been going on over the strawberry
situation. Hie cannery in Salem Is
reported to have made growers hold
ing 6c contracts an offer of 3c on
their contracted tonnage for releas
ing the company from the contracts
and the growers keeping the ber

standing by their contracts.
Cooperative canneries are taking
their patrons' crop and will pay
what the processed berries bring
when sold. The strawberry season,
at present does not look so rosy.
Local growers, however, will prob
ably realize enough from their ber

canning of this fruit will be much In
evidence this season.
CRITICS LOUD
IN PRAISES OF
WELCH YOUTH
London (IP) The' critics here are
loud in their praise of Harold Rub
ens, Welsh boy-pianist and "infant
prodigy," who leadned In less than
four years, how to move his hammer-like
litle fingers up and down
a piano keyboard quicker than a
mechanical piano.
About the size of the average
eight-year-old boy, Harold, in a neat
black velvet coat and knickers and
white silk shirt, made his public
debut here at a Sunday concert giv
en at Dorchester House. His audi
ence included relatives ot the King:
Prince Arthur of Connaught and
Lord and Lady Caiisbrooke, who
congratulated him after the con
cert.
Beethoven, Chopin, Liszt, Pad
erewskl, Percy Grainger, Gwyn Wil
llams and Villa Lobes were the
composers on Harold's program.
Most of the pieces he played called
for a hand twice the size oX the
boy's own. A cushion had to be
placed on his chair to enable him
to reach the keys of the huge con
cert grand on which he played. The
result of this was to force him to
stretch his small legs each time he
had to use the pedals.
After the concert his teacher,
Maria Levlnskaya, creator of a sys
tem claimed to have revolutionized
piano teaching, coaxed Harold out
of his timidity Into answering ques
tions.
Thus it was revealed that the
young artist abhors Jazz, does not
know Lloyd Qeorge, and prefers
Chopin and Beethoven as far as
composers are concerned, although
In the Jazz line, Gerechwin is "not
so bad as the others." His hobby is
Rugby. He always saves two cents
out of his weekly earnings to bet
on Rugby matches.
Harold is eleven even though he
looks eight. He was born In Car
diff. His mother is a Welsh worn an,
an elementary school teacher. His
father Is a Russian naturalized
British before the . war, a drapery
salesman. I

STOCKS MOVE
SLOWLY DURING
DULL SESSION
New York, May Jl (IP) With
trading falling back to the dullness
characteristic of recent sessions, the
stock market today closed Irregular
after moving in a narrow range
throughout the short session.
At todays' finish, the list was not
far from the levels at the, close a
week ago, one day of decline being
offset by four days of small ad'
vances.
There was little In the news to
affect the list. Outlook was brighter
for business pickup now that the
reserve banks were to take an ac
tive part in furnishing credit to
industry. Meanwhile, traders were
reticent about making commitments
pending further information of the
methods whereby the credit was to
be extended. Shorts were equally
reticent and this brougnt a prac
tical deadlock with tickers barely
moving.
Shares of oil companies operating
in the east were affected adversely
by the gasoline price war which
broke out In this city today.
Railroad shares held fairly well
within fractions of the previous
close and so did utilities.
Steel common managed to retain
a gain throughout most of the ses
sion and small advances were noted
in several other, leaders of various
groups.

lation, the Dow Jones and Company

Attleboro, Mass. (IP) Arraigned
in district court on a charge of
fishing without a license. Howard
Goft explained that when arrested
he was merely conducting an inter.

would still catch fish. He was
fined $10.

WASHINGTON OF
FRENCH DESCENT
Paris, (LP) The announcement b
Prof. Albert Bushnell Hart that
George Washington was of French
descent through the old Huguenot:
Nicholas Martiau, has caused clam
oring among the Protest families of
that name in tne region ot names,
who wonder If they should not in
herit some of the properties of tht)
President, Including Mount Vernon.
Upon the announcement by Pro
fessor Hart that Washington's only
European Continental ancestry-had
been traced to the Huguenot Mar
tiau. a search was made by inter
ested Americans to trace that fami
ly.
The name is uncommon in French
and none of the family lives among
the residents here. Unless the name
has been changed by later genera
tions, the only possible descendants)
of the Huguenot Martians are s
dozen families living in Brittany.
There Is a baker at Nantes by
that name, several seamen, several
farmers, and a very wealthy ship
owner. Most of them are protest
ants. There Is no trace in thtj
records of the town hall of Nantes
of Nicholas Martiau. but that is not
surprising, for three fires have de
stroyed many records.
The Huguenots, previously, could
claim blood kinship with four other
Presidents, Roosevelt, Taft, Gar
field, and Tyler. Nicholas Martiau,
who was bom in France in 1591, mi
grated to Virginia in 1620, and died
In Yorktown In 1657. Through bis)
daughter Elizabeth, who married
Colonel George Reader, he becamo)
the earliest American ancestor of
George Washington.
