Newspaper Page TextTHE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 21, 1032 EASIER TONE OBSERVED IN BUTTER TRADE Portland, Sept. 21 (tP With an Increased supply of butter on the market here as a result of Increased price, the situation present a slight, ly easier trading tone although prices In general are practically un changed lor both print and cubes While the late centrahzer churning was a fraction below the total dis played last meek, the outside sup plies available here were more than sufficiently Increased to make up for this shortage. This together with rather liberal withdrawals from storage, gave the trade a very con siderable increase in supply. All last week there was a con stant movement out of Pacific coast coolers, practically all points show lug profit taking by speculative in terests. The same situation prevailed In the country generally, total stocks of coolers everywhere showing a de crease. Butterfat values are un changed. Market for eggs continues to re fleet strength and the surprising feature is that demand gains as the price ascends. Slight increase In re ceipts Is suggested with the gain principally In pullets. With local prices seriously below California values and with the latter still buying in this territory, chicken prices here are practically unchang ed for all classes of live stuff. All through the peach trade a bet ter demand is showing considering the season. The clings are now com ing In for attention including the Phillip and the Orange. Both are I irmly priced. There is a weak tone In the mar ket for country killed lambs but no further cut is Indicated in prices. Hogs are continued on a steady basis with calves firm, especially for the better sorts, which are scarce. Indicating that the general pub lic is not at all inclined to view cur rent values on cranberries with sat isfaction. Is the fact that sales are practically almost too nominal to note. Values on the coast are above an eastern basis and shipping or ders are absent as a result. Market for dry beans Is a trifle dull with a tinge of weakness under lying the California and Idaho whites but reds are quoted firm. A late review of the bean trade sug gests recent strength In California but weak elsewhere, which unsettled the entire trade. Limited carload business Is con firmed In the cauliflower market, with the latest business appearing from the Atlantic coast. Owing to the extreme dry weather real No 1 is dilficult to secure. Plenty of good No. 2s. Advanced orders on cocoanuts be ing taken at $4 sack, which is the iowest opening price known here. All citrus fruit prices are un changed. Dillard cantaloupes are being sold 1-$1.10 for best with fancy Eugene stock mostly $1 crate. Pomegranates are being offered $1 box. Vakiina potatoes more active but locals are scarce. Cub bat' e mar ket continues to weaken. Pickling cucumbers again higher with continued scarcity. BRITISH TO INCREASE CANNED GOODS DUTY Increased duties are announced as having been imposed Jn the Unit ed Kingdom on canned cherries, candied fruit peel and a list of ether Hems, says the California Fruit News. Thrsc new general tar iff rates, applying to Imports from all non-British sources, include a duty of 25 per cent ad valorem, in addition to the existing specific rates depending upon sugar con tent, on canned cherries and on pitted cherries canned or bottled in syrup.

PRUNE HARVEST IN CALIFORNIA EARLY California prune harvest has been relatively early. Ai harvest has ad vanced, growers rcpart slightly low er production than expected, plac ing the present forecast at 209.000 tons, says the California Fruit News. The entire morale of the prune industry seems to have been strengthened by the successful sign up and organization of the Califor nia Prune Pool. Crops of other re cent years have been: 208.000 tons in 1931, 274.000 tons In 1931, 274,- 000 tons in 1930. 103,000 tons In 1929 and 221.000 tons in 1928. It is esti mated that of. the 1930 crop only 261,000 tons were actually harvested. The forecast of probable produc tion of dried prunes In Oregon is 20.000 tons. In addition to these amounts the forecasts of prunes for fresh consumption are: Oregon, 34,- 000 tons; Washington, 27,000: and Idaho, 25.000 tons. ! Poultry Display I Exceptionally Biff Visitors to the 71st Oregon state fair which opens Monday will see the largest livestock and poult re display in the history of the expo sition, the exhibitors including many wno never before have shown In the state.

HOOVER FEELS PINCHOT PROD Harrisburg, Pa., Sept. 21 tVpi Gov ernor Pinchot today telegraphed President Hoover that his refusal to take a hand in speeding reconstruc tion finance corporation aid to Pennsylvania "came as deep great disappoint ment." The governor yesterday requested i an appointment Friday to discuss I with the president means by which , the corporation's action on the 1 s3te's application, now two months old. could be expedited. The president advised him that if he studied the law he would realize that the corporation alone could de termine its leans and that he was without authority to advise it In the manner the governor requested. Al though Mr. Toovcr did not refer to the governor's request for an ap pointment, it was said at the White House that he would not be received. "I cannot concede that you are ( powerless to neip, Pincnots tele gram today said. "Whatever may be your legal authority over the recon struction li nance corporation .its members are your appointees, and would unquestion?.by respect your wishes. "You suggest that I study the law. I did so most carefully before mak ing application and found in it no requirement whatever beyond the application and certificate of need by the governor, which I made two months ago. Your board has read Into the law finespun red tape which congress never wrote into It, and is using it to starve our unemployed. "Red tape does not Interest the hundreds of thousands of destitute families In Pennsylvania, now on the verge of winter without resources and without hope. What they want Is help. All the help private charity, the commonwealth and the nation can give will still fall far below their bitter need. You yourself have given the guarantee that no one shall starve in tliis country. I ask you to make that guarantee good in Pennsyl vania." rRl'N'E IIXaVKST STARTS Amity The prune harvest has started in this locality this week in earnest with the three dryers, two south of town operated by W. R. Osborne, and the Ray Jor.cs dryer, one mile northeast of Amity are running full capacity. The prune crop Is much heavier than antici pated earlier In he summer and the quality is excellent. Practice Committee Of Fruit Association Tests Samples Here The field practice committee of the Northwest Dried Fruit association met in Salem yesterday to inspect samples from various prune sections. men who handle prunes and re- ceive delivery on them for the vari ous packers and co-operatives. The idea of the meeting is to fix stand' ards for the year on primes which must pass inspection at the dock, The dried fruit association han dles Its own Inspections at the dock and the men who handle prunes go over the situation in the field practice committee so that just the standards on prunes allow able for the year are known to them. These standards vary somewhat according to the years as in cer tain Reasons it Is manifestly Im possible to put up the same stand ard pack of dried prunes as it Is in other seasons. Consequently var ious factors are gone over, tolerances fixed and thus it is made possible for the association to either certify or not certify the prunes for pass ing Inspection at the dock, over which the bulk of the dried prunes of the northwest passes. This year the prune quality is FARM PRODUCTS MOVING WITH LOWEST PRICES Corvallis, Ore., Sept. 21 UP) Hea vily increased produce movement in the northwest Is reported In this week's fruit and vegetable review is sued by the O.S.C. extension service and the government bureau of agri cultural economics. Unfortunately. the review says, prices are still so low that growers are netting little or nothing above cost of production. Volume of cariot movement last week reached 3036 compared with an average of 1800 for the preceding four weeks. Most of the increase was In Washington apples, Idaho prunes, Idaho and Yakima potatoes, and Oregon and Washington pears. Pear shipments reached the peak last week for the season to date with 909 cars, about equally divided between Oregon and Washington. Northwestern Bartletts from storage averaged, on eastern auctions, around $1.50 to $1.75 which leaves producers little profit. Cannery Bartletts closed strong with some late bids at $15 to $16 per ton com pared with mid-season prices of $8 to $10. Continued dry weather has cut the estimated crop of fall cauliflower in half, although the same dry wea ther has provided Ideal dried prune harvesting conditions. Y ACTIVITIES STIMULATED With the opening of school and the return of cooler weather, ac tivities at the Y. M. C. A. are in creasing rapidly and many classes have been organized or are in the process of formation. Swimming promises to take up a great deal of time of the instructors since Snlcm high and Willamette univer sity students will use the Y pool during the winter. Men students at Willamette will receive swim ming instructions between 1 and 3 Monday and Fridays' while women from the university will have one class each Wednesday between 1 and 3 and another on Friday from 3 to 4 p. m. Tuesday of each week will be giv en almost exclusively to high school girls with the boys scheduled to occupyt he pool on Thursday. Fred Smith and Bob Boardrnan will in struct the boys, while Esther Ar nold will have charge of the girls classes. Fred Paul of Willamette will in struct boys in the art of diving on dates to be announced. Bob Need ham will have charge of the speed swimmers. Young women not affiliated with the schools will have their class work between 7:20 and 8 o'clock every Wednesday evening. Men's gym classes will probably not ftart until the week aiter the state fair. Continuation of KERR COUNSELS (Prom page one) and money spent in controversy." Outlining the policy of the fut ure.

' MONEY COMING OUT OF HORDING Washington, Sept. 21 (LP) Money is coming out of hoarding In sub stantial quantities, according to the Federal Reserve board. Between July 6 and August 31. "tlie first substantial movement In this direction since last March," oc curred with $85,000,000 estimated to have returned from circulation, the board announced. Eola Mrs. Ruby Thacker has re turned to her home after several weeks spent at the home of her sis ter, Mrs. Dave Jacobson of TalbDt, The committee is made up of reported very good and the sam pies shown Indicated a nice prune as a eeneral thing. The field practice committee Is nl Its second year this year. It Is understood it was largely an out growth of the move ftarted by the government a few . years ago to clean up the prune industry The dried fruit association immediately took up the proposition and it was tacitly understood between rcpre sentatives of the government and the prune packers and growers that ample opportunity would be given to the industry to take care of Its own problems. However, gov ernment inspectors indicated that if this was not done then they would step in and take a hand. A committee was named headed by William O. Fisher, well known prune buyer, to work out a plan to meet the situation and the filed practice committee Li under stood to have been an offshoot of this plan. Under the field practice committee a standard is arrived at as to how the prunes should be handled under good, careful care for the conditions existing as ol that year. The plan seems to have worked admirably and but little criticism has been found by the government with the packs offered for shipment. Prune drying Is expected to con tinue for another 10 days while prune canning will probably be bet ter well wound up by the end of this week. Crop estimates do not vary much as a general thing although straight through it appears that the crops which were predicted as light ran possibly little lighter than esti mates while the heavy crops ran a little heavier than estimate. Prune men state that growers' estimates as a general thing are influenced to some extent by the crops of the previous year on their ovn hold ings and may vary accordingly. eorIpTsIt crop shrinks Recent advir.es from Europe through government sources show the walnut crop ol the Mediterran ean and Danube countries to be a little shorter than the reporu to our government a few weeks ago. says the California Fruit News. It now appears that the walnut crop in the important Mediterranean and Danubian countries is estimat ed at 61,000 short tons this year, as compared with 102,000 short tons last year. A little earlier the esti mate was for about 10,000 tons more than now appears. Recent renoi-ts also state the walnut quality Is not promising In Rumania. The qunlity is reported up to average In Italy and Prance but the crop late and the sizes below those of last year, particularly Crcnobles. The market prospects are said not to be en couraging, however, even with the fmall crop, because of the poor buy ing opportunities'. The crop of filberts in the Med iterranean area is expected to be very large and is being offered at low prices. Tills crop shows now apparently even a larger prospect than the good crop forecast a few weeks ago. Continuation of ROOSEVELT HERE (From page one) where I also am a farmer, have sim ilar problems. "Before the war, 22 percent of the population of this country was en gaged in the agricultural industry They garnered 15 percent of the na tional income. Since that time, the revenue has gradually shrunk to some seven percent of the nation's total Income. The democratic nominee attacked the Smoot-Hawley tariff, stated that as a result of its excessive burdens, other nations have adopted retalia tory tarilts. "One of the most important tilings we have to do," he said, "is to treat with other nations to remove there tariffs and to, in homely phrases,' 'swap goods'. "Tliis, I admit, would take some time to work out. In the meantime we must seek definite means of a tariff principle so that agriculture will be protected the same as indus try now Is." Portland, Sept. 21 P) Under sunny skies Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt today at 9:45 o'clock reached Portland In his presiden tial campaign swing through the west. Cheering thousands greeted the democratic nominee when he left his private car at the Union depot for a parade through the city and to Gresham to visit the Multncmah county Pomona grange. Grcsham Is 15 miles east of Portland. As the democratic nominee boarded a flat draped automobile at Union station for a parade through the streets of Portland, the champion drum corps of the Salem American Legion post struck up a stirring tune and swung In ahead of Mr. Roosevelt's machine to lead the procession. The crwods were thin until the business district was reached but theie the spectators jammed the sidewalks and overflowed Into the streets. Dozens of men left the sidewalks and walked alongside the Roosevelt machine. Leaving the business district, the procession swung into the Powell valley boulevard ts pass thrcush a rich farming and berry country to Qresham.

Forty or them set up tariff defenses." PRODUCTS BAH III. D Among the commodities of the Pacific northwest, which Roosevelt .said had been injured by retaliatory tariffs, were peaches, vegetables, ap ples, condensed milk, hay pud sal mon. "To remedy this," asserted Roose velt, "I have advocated and continue to advocate a tariff policy based on large part upon the simple principle of profitable exchange arrived at through negotiated tariffs with ben. fit to each nation. If I am any judge of conditions, this policy will be initiated on next March 4. "This constitutes what I conceive to be a new deal in the restoration of foreign trade it is tlie way of economic peace and stability to rea- sonaole and sound prosperity. This measure of justice can come only through a revival of industry and mployment. "Not charity, but a chance to earn a living. This is the hope and de mand of the men forgotten in the policies of the present republican leadership." That sentence ended his prepared address. He added, however, his right arm outstretched and his voice stressing every word; FKillT AGAINST INSIM KRT "All my life I have been a doer. not a phrase maker. I ask your help In support of liberal views and lib eral measures. I ask It in the name of a stricken world. I ask you to give me your help." Mr. Roosevelt's comment on the democratic senatorial candidacy of Homer T. Bone, a republican office ccker four years ago, was inter preted as a further bid for republi can and progressive support. He said: "The fight this year is against weak and mistaken and in sincere lenders in Washington, and not against the rank aud file of the republican party. Mr. Bone has paid me t he grea t com pi imen t of re- s ponding to the invitation that 1 extended in my acceptance speecli to men of all parlies and political belief to join me in this battle for a new deal."

McNary. STEAKS AT PORTLAND The democratic nominee tonight v ill speak at Portland, delivering the third of the major speeches of his 8900 mile Journey through 21 states. Mr. Roosevelt will discuss public utilities, a subject to which he as governor of New York has given much attention. Last night at Seattle, Roosevelt made a brief speech to an auditor ium crowd that filled every seat, the aisles, window ledges and overflowed into a baseball park adjoining the building. There were 12.000 in the auditorium and an estimated 14.000 in the park. Referring to the Hawlcy-Smoot or "Grundy Tariff,'1 Mr. Roosevelt .sa.d, "President Hoover should have known that this tariff would raise havoc with any plans that he might have had to stimulate foreign mar kets." Mr. Roosevelt's auditorium speech climaxed a tumultous and busy day. Police estimated that more than 100.000 persons jammed the streets when the democratic nomi nee drove from his train to a hotel. Along the 25 miles route to the western Washington fair at Puy allup, crowds had gathered in every village and 25,000 heard him briefly talk at the fair grounds. Return ing he visited Tacoma, where the crowd all but engulfed his motor car and the others in which mem bers of his party rode. SPEAKS OF INFIRMITY A dozen village and country schools had turned out, the child ren lining the roadway. At many of them Mr. Roosevelt stopped his car and said a few words to the younasters, many of whom were Japanese children who gased silently at him and his partv. prom many of the truck and fruit gar dens, framed azainst the snowy background of Mt. Rainier. Janan- ese farmers waved a greeting. uunng ine course ol his daj activities Mr. Roosevelt visited a hospital for crippled children at Seattle, and to them he made th only public reference to his physi cal condition yet uttered during this cnmpaiRn. Looking down from his open mo tor cpr. covered with roses, upon the semi-circle of wheel chairs and cots containing children, he re marked 'I have trouble standing up too."
