BUTTER MART
STEADY ALONG
PACIFIC COAST
Portland, Nov. 21 LP) Trading In
butter 1a steady with government
buying of xresh surplus creating a
firm tone in spots. As a result of
the government purchases lower
scores were boosted Me on the ex
change. There Is a weaker tone all through
the egg market. Despite efforts to
maintain the nominal quotations
now listed for fresh stock, most lo
cal sales are reported lower and In
line with easier conditions elsewhere.
Only a very draggy tone is show
ing for potatoes here despite much
talk of strength imparted by the ar
tificial advances at country points.
Buyers are purchasing only their
most Immediate needs and these are
being taken care of by former prices.
Still another carload of cranber
ries is due from the eastern bogs
within a day or so. Already four car
loads have arrived, which gives far
bigger outside supply than obtained
from local bogs. Prices nominally
steady.
Cabbage prices are being advanced
with purchases of rather fair vol
ume at $20 ton at country points.
Lettuce market is fairly steady at
late prices. Cauliflower market Is
fairly steady at late prices. Cauli
flower and celery sales continue firm
tn carlots. Hothouse tomatoes firm
er and appear a trifle higher.
Cheese market continues to show
slight easiness. Apple trading still
very slow with prices a trifle weak.
RALLIES TODAY
Chicago, Nov. 21 W1) Late rallies
In wheat prices today lifted the
market to materially above yester
day's finish, but the gains failed to
hold.
Enlargement of speculative buying
accompanied the advance, and was
attributed to reports in some quar
ters that notwithstanding denials
the wheat crop damage develop
ments in Argentina were severe.
British and Canadian advices tend
ed to confirm Argentine dnmage.
Wheat closed nervous at H de
cline to advance compared with
yesterday's finish, corn 3-8 to 1 cent
down, oats unchanged and provi
sions unchanged to 32 cents lower.
Influenced by unconfirmed reports
of Argentine wheat crop damage
from yellow stripe rust, grain prices
averaged a fraction higher early.
Uncertainties of the monetary situa
tion were apparently a check on j
buyers, with higher gold quotations
at Washington and new rise in
sterling having put little Immedi
ate stimulating effect. Opening at
M off to 5-8 up, wheat later showed
advances all around. Corn started
unchanged to c higher, and sub
sequently held near the initial limits.
ASK RECEIVER FOR
LINN SECURITIES
Portland, Nov. 21 (LP) O. C. Bry
ant, receiver for the First National
Bank of Albany, today filed suit In
federal court asking that a receiver
be appointed for the Linn Securi
ties company of Albany.
He alleged that the company owes
the bank $15,600, owes other credi
tors $124,000, and that Its assets
are worth only $6000. -
The suit wiu be argued Friday.
Continuation of ";r Z'1
Highway Board
From Pafe One
the power of any future legislature
to discontinue the payments provid
ed in the act in question. Assump
tion of Indebtedness, In the ordin
ary acceptation of the word, means
lor one person to bind himself to
pay the debt incurred by another. . .
The legislature no doubt felt that it
was Just and equitable to prant some
relief to a highway improvement
district unduly burdened by taxes
on account of having constructed a
highway which it was the primary
duty and obligation of the state to
construct.
Justice Campbell in his dissent
ing opinion says: "That Chapter 298
Oregon laws 933 violates sec. 8, Art.
11 of the Oreffon Constitution and
also violates Sub-section 7 of Sec.
23 Art. 4 of the Constitution, which
provides against special and local
laws for laying, opening or working
on highways." The writer is firmly
of the opinion that the provisions
of the constitution above referred to,
were especially Intended to prohibit
the kind of legislation enacted by
Chap. 298 Laws 1933. I do not wish
to be understood as saying that the
state could not take over certain
roads and incorporate them into the
state highway system and in doing
so make allowance to the district
that built the roads, but they may
only be done by a general low made
applicable to all districts where the
facts Rre the same." Chief Justice
Rand concurs in this opinion.
Justice Rossmnn concludes his
dissenting opinion with this state
ment: "But, regardless of whether
It is an assumption of the district's
debt by the State, I feel clearly sat
isfied that the act contemplates the
bestowal of a favor upon one dis
trict in violation of the above Con
stitutional provision. Tills precedent
will enable all debt-burdened mu
nicipalities to apply for individual
favors. I therefore dissent."
Ther remains unpaid on this
bond fssue the sum of (120,000.
Among other decisions was the
"rise of Frank Monner, administra
tor, appellant vs. J. A. Starker. Ap
peal from Marion county. Judge L.
O. Le welling affirmed. Action for
damages for persona Injuries re
sulting from automobile accident.
Opinion by Justice Bean.

Huntington, president and manager
of the association, reported today.
Loading dates are as follows: Al

birds having been received by the
association up to the present time.
The turkeys have been late in ma
turity and growers have been killing
only prime stock. Mr. Huntineton
reports tnac quality nas been high
er than usual, and that the birds
are running to larger sizes than
in ordinary seasons, due to the
long range season. Contrary to
published reports, he declares, the
market is rapidly absorbing large
sued birds and no dlinculty has
been experienced by the association
in sales.
Only light receipts are expected
for this week's pool, but it is ex
pected that a normal shipment will
be made In the first December
loadings scheduled as follows: Rose
burg, and Myrtle Creek, Dec, 5; Oak
land, Dec. 6; Eugene and Cottage
Grove, Dec. 7; Albany and Leban
on, Dec. b; McMlnnvllIe, Dec. 9;
Portland, Dec. 8.

lain.
DART GAMES WILL
PAY $100 LICENSE
A license fee of $100 a year would
be assessed against operators of dart
amusement games operating in the
city by an ordinance bill introduced
at the city council meeting last
night by Alderman O. A. Olson.
By special dispensation of the
council Mrs. Christine Buttrlck will
be allowed to operate a popcorn
wagon near the street curb and
near the State theater on Church
street. Mrs. Buttrlck had some dif
ficulty In reaching an agreement
with the theater management, but
both she and Don Young, repre
senting the theater, told the coun
cil this had been adjusted. The
theater management retains the
privilege of making effective a pro
test on 30 days notice if It develops
that the wagon is detrimental to the
theater. An ordinance affecting
the case was Introduced, given three
readings under suspension of rules
and passed.
Mayor Douglas McKay Introduced
an ordinance bill for repeal of the
ordinance prohibiting the parking
of trucks in the fire zone. The or
dinance has never been enforced
and Is held unsatisfactory.
The council passed the ordinance
for a $60,000 bond issue to refund
city hall bonds dating back to 1894,
provision for payment of which has
never been made.
TURNER TELEPHONE
DIRECTORS GATHER
Turner The board of directors of
the Turner Telephone company met
recently, holding the first meeting
since January of this year. An ac
cumulation of bills, most of which
were credited on the dues of the sub
scribers for labor and supplies, were
taken care of. Only a minimum
amount of repair to the lines will be
attempted owing to the limited
amount of finances available at the
present time. While during the past
year a number of patrons have dis
continued use of their phones some
are now arranging to be connected
on the lines again. The company,
which Is a mutual corporation, serv
es about 70 subscribers at the pres
ent time. Board members at the
eeting were Frank Schampier, pres
ident; Fred Dcnham, C. A. Bear, di
rectors, and E. S. Prather, secretary.

Philharmonic orchestra season

cember 7, according to announce
ment today of the management.
The Capitol theater has been se

programs either from a music
standpoint or for the comfort of the
listeners.
Jacques Gershkovitch, -who di
rected the orchestra during last
season will handle the baton again

Washington, this Is only in tne na
ture of a formality for the record
there as approval of these projects
Is not needed at Washington, mem
bers of the relief committee state.
Four copies of the applications
are required, one for the relief
committee here, one for the state
civic works administration, one for
Washington and one to the veter
ans bureau at Portland. While the
state civic works administration
has charge of alloting the projects,
the veterans bureau will have
charge of distribution of all funds
and handle all of the finances. It
is expected that this bureau will
work in co-operation with Niles
here and that it will countersign all
checks Issued by Niles for any ex
penses on any of the projects.
The committee tonight will put
its final O. K. on application1! of
the county for 12 or more pro
jects, for the city for such projects
possibly as repairing the city Jail,
grading on Summer street, and
cleaning out of a number of dit
ches as well as Mill creek and pos
sibly tackle the unsanitary condi
tions surrounding one of the river
sloughs. The proposal for. a new
water main for Silvcrton will also
be passed on as well as proposals
for work to be done on playgrounds
at xjesue ana rarrish schools in
cluding new tennis courts, swim
ming pools, horseshoe courts and
other athletic developments. Work
for Parrlsh school will be done
largely on dinger field, according
w pians.
The county program Is clear
ing projects on the North Santiam
highway above Mehama and other
pieces of road work spread about
over tne entire county. Two other
road projects besides the North
Santiam are mainly widening and
ditching. The North Santiam will
be for clearing the proposed right
of way along the Santiam river
from Mehama up to Mill City, as it
is proposed to route the new high
way down tnis side of the river.
Continuation of
Water Proposal
From Page One
Elliott that acceptance of the city's
proposal le impossible, and that to
attempt such a deal would be to
invite injunction proceedings by
bond holders 6f he company on the
ground that the security behind
their bonds was being impaired.
The city's offer stated a nurchase
price of $950,000, of which $903,000
was to be paid through an exchange
of city water bonds for bonds of the
company, and the remaining $47,000
in casn.
In rejecting the offer the com
pany explains that the outstanding
bonds of the company are a blanket
issue against all of the properties
of the company In Oregon and
Washington, and that of the total
value of the properties- approxim
ately $1,300,000 is represented in
the Salem plant.
on this basis the only manner
In which the company could accept
a price of $950,000 and preserve the
security behind Its bonds would be
to receive the purchase price in
cash, enabling it to go on the mar
ket and buy at current quotations
Donas ox tne company in the ap
proximate amount of the value of
the plant and retire them.
The company's alternate proposal
of negotiations through a bond
house now take the limelight as a
result of the rejection of the city's
offer. This plan contemplates that
the company shall give an option
to a selected bond firm for purchase
of the properties at an agreed price.
The bond company would then un
dertake to market whatever amount
of city bonds would be required to
net $950,000 to tne company, under
write and consumatc the transac
tion and turn the title to. the prop,
ertles over to the city.
This would enable the city to
comply with the terms of the PWA
loan of $1,500,000 for the construc
tion of a mountain water supply
system.
The only out that appears feas
ible at present," said Mayor Doug
las McKay today when Informed of
the rejection of the city's offer by
the water company, "is for the city
to push its application to the pub
lic works administration for an
additional $950,000 loan for out
right purchase of the plant.
"It has been suggested by some
members of the council that the
city should send a representative to
Washington to see to the city's in
terest in the matter. I believe that
we have the very best man avail
able in Washnigton right now,
meaning Senator McNary, and that
he will give the necessary time
and can be depended on to see that
the city's interests are taken care
of.
"As for the water company's al
ternative proposal to the city that
It be paid enough city bonds, at
the present market prices of about
87 to equal $950,000, I believe the
people of the city would voice such
protest that the deal could not
be put over. This would be an ac
tual payment of about $1,100,000
face value of bonds.
'Of course there Is the alterna
tive of condemnation. But that has
been repeatedly objected to, and
Justly, I think, because of the time
it would take to get a condemna
tion case through the courts.
"I am not surprised at the water
company's " rejection of the city's
offer."
