T
L
Portland, Aug. 17 (IP) Butter
prices were unchanged today.
Trading In the local egg market
shows strength for quality but
Steadiness for others.
Considerable activity Is suggested
In the peach trade here with prices
firm to higher generally. Offer
ings are curtailed from all sections
of the home territory.
Yakima peach deal is ending. A
message from the peach bureau
states Elbertas are all picked and
the last shipped today while the
last of the Hales will be picked to
day and the deal over in a few
days.
Local cantaloupe price is a trifle
easier with suggestion of fractional
decline in spots although a few
cants are still being sold above the
general price listed. Good quality
is extremely scarce.
First of the regular shipments of
peas from near Coquille will arrive
In Portland Monday. The crop Is
reported excellent.
There Is a keen demand for
Hermiston watermelons and the
extreme quality is causing a flood
of orders that shippers have diffi
culty in keeping up with.
Lamb market is still slow, other
lines are steady to firm.
Italian prune demand is better
for fresh offerings.
Tomato market is steady for ex
treme quality, slow for others.
Local lettuce is now generally
better than northern but sells much
lower.
Potato market continues rather
active locally but at unchanged
prices.
VALUES
Chicago, Aug. 17 (fl' A big tum
ble in corn values lnte today went
hand in hand with free selling on
the part of houses with connec
tions east.
On the rapid downward slide of
the corn market, a profusion of
gtop loss orders were automatically
forced into execution. No aggres
sive buying support for corn was
In evidence, and wheat weakened as
a result of sympathy with corn.
Corn suffered an extreme drop
of 3 cents, and closed nervous
l'A-2 under yesterday's finish.
Dec. 16i-Vi, wheat irregular at llfi
decline to - Vi advance, Dec. new
103M-, oats 14-114 off, and pro
visions varying from 10 cents set
back to 5 cents gain.
Influenced by general rains re
lieving drought conditions In Aus
tralia and Argentina, grain prices
here averaged lower early today,
Washington reports suggesting gov
ernmental attempts to hold prices
down were also a bearish factor,
Opening Vt -1 Vi lower, December
new 1.03-03, wheat afterward ral
lied somewhat. Corn started at a
- decline, December 77'j-'Vi, and
subsequently recovered in part.

New York, Aug. 17 (LP) The stock
market drifted irregularly lower
today in extremely dull trading.
Grains were heavy with corn
dropping as much as 2' cents a
bushel. Hogs continued to climb
on the various livestock markets, a
top of $6.65 being established in
Chicago.
Selectivity was the chief char
acteristic of the market today. Fer
tilizer shares were most favored on
the basis of good earnings reports
and rumors of further such reports
from other companies. American
Agricultural Chemical advanced to
a new high for the year at 38'A up

ced 10 points to 84.

point lower to 110 'A as a report of
June operations of tne parent com
pany showed a sharp reduction un
der June of 1933. American Can

Indicative of the lack of trend
in the market were Chrysler at
33 off Vu Atchison at 47 W off
, General Motors at 29 un
changed, Montgomery Ward at 22
unchanged, New York Central at 21
off , U. S. Steel at 33 up
and Consolidated Gas at 2714 up
Corn products Refining jumped VA
to 58 Vi and Union Pacific dropped
lVa to 97 to move away from the
general market.
Stock sales today approximated
480,000 shares against 610,000 shares
yesterday. Curb exchange sales were
106,000 shares against 110,000 shares
yesterday.
Continuation of

From Page One
ganized opposition.
His address to the world from the
Hamburg city hall tonight ends six
days in which nazis, great and
small, have braved writer's cramp
and strained voices telling Germany
that Hitler fits the shoes of the late
Paul von Hindenburg.
On Sunday ,so says one nazi
chieftain, 43,000,000 Germans will
obediently say "ja" to the one issue
on the ballot: That Hitler has the
right to von Hindenburg's presiden
tial powers.
Dozens of other related principles
have been enunciated by fervid
Hitlerites this week the most im
portant being that Germany must
again demonstrate to a hostile
world that it is behind der fuehrer.
The very fervor of the campaign,
however tons of literature lauding
Hitler have been written and mil
lions of words spoken about unity
has been interpreted in foreign
circles as indicating the nazi lead
ership is none too sure it will get
as large a vote as It did last No
vember. Hitler's selection of Hamburg for
the crowning effort was considered
significant. It is known that in
that proud old Hanseatic city mere
is as well-defined an opposition
group as any in Germany. Ham
burg, a great port, has been hard
hit by nazi trade restrictions.
Hitler will speak between 8 and
10 p. m. (2 and 4 p. m. EST). His
address will be broadcast.
By government order no flowers
will be strewn in the chancellor's
path but there will be flags also
by order greeting him there and in
every part of the reich.
"I am not appealing for votes be
cause I -feel I need bolstering up,"
he said. "I've always stood on my
own feet, and I can do It again.
But I believe the people's leader
ship must emanate from the people
also that the world must be shown
the Germans are united.
"So long as our enemies feel
they have a chance of negotiating
with a disunited Germany so long
will they hope to crowd us Into
agreements suitable to themselves, j
We must show them we stana
as one. Not that a united Germany
asks favors of a hostile world. Our
position is, 'We seek nothing fromj
you but let us go our own way
in peace.'" I

but for the nation" and pledged
full responsibility for his steward
ship "with my head and my life."
Reiterating that the revolution
(the entire post-war republican
movement in Germany) Is over, Hit
ler visualized a state resting "po
litically on the nazi movement, mil
itarily on the army, and not tied
to one-sided capitalistic Interests."
Hitler declared that a hostile for
eign press, In order to create trou
ble, predicted disorders In Germany
and a feud between leading nazis
during tho interregnum which fol
lowed President Paul von Hinden
burg's death.
"This speculation had o be halted
In the Interests of the German peo
ple," he said. "Otherwise we should
have awaited the peoples' decision.
The result would have been the
same."
He referred to the arbitrary pro

5 PERCENT FOR
FMONE
Proposed certificates of Indebted
ness to be issued by the state against
future anticipated revenues of the
liquor commission will carry an in
terest rate of 5 percent, it was learn
ed today.
The certificates, $1,250,000 to be
issued in five equal monthly install
ments, will be in denominations of
$1000. Funds secured will be the
state's contribution to supplement
federal funds for unemployment
relief.
The state treasurer was under
stood to be ready' to advertise the
certificates for sale as soon as the
attorney-general renders an opinion
upholding their validity. They are to
be retired serially beginning Decem
ber 31, 1934, and mature by Decem
ber 31, 1935.
Several bond houses, it was un
derstood, have asked that a certi
fied audit be made of liquor profits
and anticipated revenues by an out
side auditor and that some attor
ney, other than the attorney general,
render an opinion declaring sale of
the certificates legal and valid.

GREATER VALU
"The Nutritive Values of Cali
fornia prunes" is the title of a brief
but exhaustive summary of orig
inal and published research which
establishes the California prune in
a new light dietetically, says the
California Fruit News. The booklet
is not for lay readers, owing to its
mass of technical detail but has
been accepted for circulation among
physicians, hospital dietitians and
others professionally interested in
nutrition by the Committee on
Foods of the American Medical As
sociation. The book was written by
L. B. Williams of the California
Dried Fruit Research Institute, as
sisted by Marjorle Gilbreath of the
Institute staff and K. M. Mark of
the Fruit Products Laboratory of
the University of California.
Probably the most important fea
ture of the book is the announce
ment for the first time that prunes,
which have heretofore been classed
among the acid foods, in reality
have no effect upon the akaiine
reserve of the blood. This Is prob
ably the most outstanding result
of the research on prunes which
has been going on for the past two
years under the direction of the
Dried Fruit Research Institute.
With the present booklet as a ba
seis, the Institute plans to prepare
the same material for the informa
tion of the lay public and, with the
acceptance of the American Medi
cal Association, publish It soon.
In the meantime the Institute Is
busy Informing the writers of bio
chemistry text books, books on die
tetics and magazine and newspaper
writers on the subject about the
new deal for prunes, because the
acid-base tests call for the reclas
sifying of prunes in both the pro
fessional works on these subjects
and publications for the lay reader.
Other matters set forth in the book
are the reaon for the laxative val
ues In California prunes And the
vitamin, mineral and energy val
ues. The booklet has a foreword by
Dr. Langley Porter, dean of the
Medical School of the University of
California, and copies are available
to those interested in the Industry
or professionally Interested in nu
trition but not for publication to
the public without the approval of
the Institute.

STUDENTS SEEK
FINANCIAL AID
AT WILLAMETTE
Field workers who have been out
in the interest of Willamette uni
versity during the summer months
in the northwest states, visiting
prospective students, report a great
deal of interest in the local school,
F. M. Erickson, acting president,
stated today. The university could
probably be filled to capacity if
students were assured of a little
financial assistance. Many of those
who would like to attend Willam
ette have written in asking for a
portion of the government aid
money which will be distributed
here. This fund will amount to
$800 monthly to be divided among
young men and women according
to enrollment. No individual stud
ent will be permitted to receive
more than $20 a month from this
sum while the average will be
around $15.
President Erickson stated today
the government had liberalized the
restrictions in connection with the
mrmey. Heretofore students who
received aid were not allowed to
work off of the campus. Now, how
ever, the university can place them
in non-profit organizations. It is
expected they will be used in re
search work to some extent in the
courts and in state departments.
Campus projects for students who
are employed under the govern
ment aid program will probably
include the cleaning up .of the banks
of the mill race and the levelling
off of the northeast portion of the
grounds. Planting of appropriate
snruDs along the mill race Is part
of the plan of improvement.

Little America, Antarctica, Aug
17 MP) Rear Admiral Richard E
Byrd prepared himself for a lonely
death in the Antarctic, yet sent r.c
appeal for aid, the outside world
learned today two months later.
A message from the advance
weather base where Byrd spent
nearly five months in isolation told
how he resigned himself to death
and left a note for a relief paity
which he feared would "arrive too
late."
Dr. Thomas C. Poulter, head of
the tractor expedition of three
which fought its way to Byrd's side,
reported by radio that the com
mander became so ill in June from
fumes from his stove he thought
the end was near.
"My observations here and re
marks that Admiral Hfrd has
made," said Dr. Poulter, "convinced
mj that he has gone through
things, particularly during the first
three weeks of June and the past
two weeks, that must have been be
yond human ability to withstand.
"He was convinced he had reach
ed the limit of his endurance. He
was true to the polar code and
played the game gallantly.
"As I think back I see things in
his messages that were put there
to keep us from realizing his con
dition, fearing that the trip in an
attempt to reach him would risk
the lives of others.
"Although he was up to meet us
on our arrival, he should not have
been. I see him showing marked
improvement. . It will be some
time before he fully recovers his
strength.
"A note was hung over his table
dated June 15 referring to letters
he had written to various people
and where the letters could be
found. Even thinking the tractor
would arrive too late he had writ
ten us a note which he had left
on the table but which he put out
of sight when we entered the shack.
"I marvel at how complete a
of scientific data he has obtained
and how painstaking he has been
with it."
BETTER WEATHER
BOOSTS BUSINESS
New York, Aug. 17 (P) The turn
to more favorable weather, partic
ularly the easing of drought condi
tions in the midwest, has brightened
business prospects and sentiment,
says the Dun & Bradstreet weekly
trade review.
"With no extension of the bound
aries of the drought areas reported
for more than two weeks," asserted
the review," and with the heat wave
definitely broken, preliminary esti
mates place farm income at 20 to
25 per cent higher than it was a
year ago."
"The final launching of the bil-lion-dollar
home renovation drive
is expected to bring an early up
turn in employment.
"The volume of retail sales, said
the review, was larger than a week
earlier with gains ranging from 2
per cent in some parts of the east
to 20 to 30 per cent respectively for
the southwest and Pacific coast.
