Gunn suggests that every grower wire the president and United States senators from here in a suggested telegram as follows: "Importation of Canadian hay has ciemoraliMd our market in the northwest. Growers feel they are be Iisr discriminated asainst. Suggest our growers hnvo first preference, After our supplies are exhausted it KhouJd be time cnoutjh for Canadian Iny. Oregon, W.ishinton nnd Idaho have a surplus of 200,000 tons." It was further stated that the Ca nadian hoy going In Is simply roughage to keep the cattle alive while the northwest hay is good feed hay.

Continuation of Martin Asks From page One legal proceeding Instead of rcqulr- lng as at present a separate suit for each tract. 'fi An act to permit county courts to zone grnztng Innd. "6 An net authorizing county courts to cancel overdue taxes, in terest and penalities on privately owned lnnd deeded to the state of Oregon or the federal government." Explaining that such legislation would be of material benefit to the agricultural and livestock Industries, Oovernor Martin said: "There are In eastern Oregon 12, 000,000 acres of unreserved and un appropriated public domain owned by the federal government, which land up to the present has been sub ject to no control and which has produced no revenue to either coun ty, state or nation. This land will, however, be brought under control by the Taylor act passed by the last session of congress. "In the meanwhile, the state of Oregon owns 800,000 acres of vacant, unleased and unsold lnnd inter spersed with the public domain. The counties in this area also own 700, 000 acres of vacant, unleased and unsold land, likewise Interspersed with the public domain. The afore said stnte and county lands are now producing no revenue and are only an expense. "The director of the national grazing service, Mr. F. R. Carpener, has recently been in conference with the eastern Oregon cattle and sheep men and has suggested changes tn and additions to our state legisla tion which will make it possible to Integrate his service with the bene ficiary counties and areas of this state."

Steel shares, especially the Pre- ferreds, were In demand. Farm equipments moved higher. Late In the day communication Issues re sponded to introduction of legisla tion permitting merger of the tele graph companies. Trading continued dull. Before the court met at noon, the stock market was firm In all sec tions. Shorts covered some of their commitments In various groups, es pecially the Silvers where gains ranged to more than 3 points. Trad ing on the general market almost came to a standstill as the. decision was awaited. When it failed to come, some selling sent the list down fractions to a point, but a re covery set in before the close. Aside from the supreme court topic, the Steel industry received most attention in the financial community. Otis Steel Preferred was a fea ture on the upside. It reached a new high since 1931 at 46 where it was up UK points for the day. The stock within the past year sold as low as 9. U. 8. Steel Preferred touched 91 up 2, pressed Steel Car Preferred 17 up 3, Bethlehem Preferred 76 up 3. Steel Common was fraction ally higher with U. S. steel the most active in the higher priced group and Otis the most active in the lower priced brackets. Mlnneapolis-Moltne Power Equip ment company Preferred reached 41 up 4 to feature gains in the farm implement group. Sales today approximated 690,000 shares compared with 680,000 shares Friday. Curb sales were 128,000 shares compared with 108,000 shares Friday. Dow Jones preliminary closing averages showed Industrial 103.35 up 059. Railroad 35.06 off 0.08, Utility 17.51 up 0.16. Continuation of Public Enemy From page One narrow hotel hall with a hall of death that zipped all around but ne ver touched the three detectives Eddie Mulhem, Arch Wltham and George Brennan who sought to trap h!m but were trapped them selves. The marksman played his role, shot a key from a woman's hand without touching her fingers. Policeman Jimmy Campbell top ped o!f the drama by dropping his empty pistol and shouting to his ma-" chine gun duelist: "Drop that gun and come out In the street and flfrht like a man." A deadly "rat-a-tat-tat" was the answer to th.H challenge. The answer v.as the same from the time the detectives entered the Dan-More h-tel to surprise whnt thought to be "on ordinary tough guy." "It wss like tar. It was a mad house" one of them said afterward. "I don't see why someone Isn't dead." When the raiders reached the fourth floor of the hotel, they met a man walking down the hall In his underwear. "Looking for someone," he ask ed politely. "Yes, who's the fellow In that room there." "Oh, he's a pal o' mine. Walt minute, and I'll tell him you want mm." And Harry Campbell for It was he went In the room, locked the door, and snapped off the lights. The hotel owner's wife, Mrs. Wil liam Morley, was summoned with a pass key. A bullet spat through the opening as the door swung back, and the key In her hand flew to pieces. "Stick "em up," he yelled. "We're officers." "Stick 'em up yourself," came a voice Inside. The door swung wide. and a machine gun started to chat ter. The detectives, outlined clearly In tne light, could see only the gun flashes In the darkened room. They scurried for safety, but bullets bit Into the walls around them. Down the hall and down the stairs, again Into the. cover of darkness, backed the gangsters, al ways keeping a curtain of gunfire between. On the stairs the trail end ed, but only for a moment. "Rat-a-tat-tat," "rat-a-tat-tat" came the deadly rattle. Karpis was sweeping the street with a leaden hall so Campbell could steal a car from the garage that first led them Into the trap. Across the way. In a hotel en trance. Policeman Campbell ans wered with the six shots in his ser vice pistol. There were no more bullets. Police regulations don't permit It "Drop that gun and come out in the street and fight like a man," Campbelt yelled. "Rat-a-tat-tat," was the answer, and the stolen car swung Into a narrow street, spraying bullets in a steady stream behind it. Close after It rumbled the police patrol, called out by hotel guests. ' Firing as they went, the fugitives sped In one street and out another, twlee doubling back from dead ends at the boardwalk. In tortous "snake alley" which winds and bends like a curling reptile- past the rear of the Dan-More hotel, the smaller machine made the turns at higher speed than the clumsy "Black Maria," and the pa trol wag lost Before fleeing from the hotel dis trict, Karpis amused himself by biasing away at every policeman he saw, and they dotted the neigh borhood seekne? 1 T'"K fes jj hot at film. Washington, Jan. 31 UP) Harry Campbell, who with Alvin Karpis blasted his way through a police trap In Atlantic City, wag reported here today to nave been seriously wounded in the encounter. A check on hospitals and doctors known to treat racketeers was or dered as the hunt for the men was pressed. Continuation of Hopmen Discuss From Page Two interesU from over the country; state college experts and a host of others whose Interests are linked to the hop Industry. Spread across the front part of the armory were charts and layouts prepared by I. E. Needham. local hop man and secretary of the tri state conference which prepared the original draft of the proposed code. These showed various phases of the situation, including setups under the agreement, also production costs and gave numerous other data in a graphic outline. Needham himself was one of the early speakers outlining production costs. In response to questions from tne chairman he stated these costs were based on his actual personal experience as a grower from 1920 and taken from the costs in his two yards about five miles from Salem. It was brought out In the question ing that transportation and trucking costs were not included in the Items. Giving a complete detailed state ment as to the costs Needham's fig ures showed a total cost of $481.45 per acre. A state college representa tive was called on to show what fig ures the college had arrived at in getting at production costs. He stat ed the college had been carrying on production cost survey and was now In the middle of it but as yet no figures were available. He said that this survey was purety educa tional in Its nature and would cover costs of production as well as data aimed to improve production meth ods and low costs, and he expected also the survey would show average costs by various types of growers, such as large growers and small growers and under varying condi tions. Needham told the board that his production showed but two bales to an acre the first year. He also told the board. In response to inquiry. that he could provide acreages and figures, Including those as to con tracts for Oregon growers. An effort was made to Inject the matter of overproduction into the hearing following Needham's talk but the chairman said that would come up In regular order as the sec tion In the code pertaining to it was reached. Robin D. Day Interposed a state ment that he wanted the Oregon growers to know that the proposed amendments offered by them to the code had been submitted. Th. ,h.nnan rlotsrf thai all nt I the matters which came up at the 1 hearing at Smta Roca, California, on January 16 and 17 would be In cluded In tv records of the present conference for reference, inaicatim; that all three of the hearings In California, Oregon and Washington are one In their nature. On selection of the chairman the first topic to come before the meet ing for discussion was the matter of grades and identifications and there were signs this would take up a good share of the balance of the hearing for today, at any rate. A member of the board made an opening talk this morning as to these grades and identifications, especially as to how they have been handled in the past He stated that grading had been done purely on a physical basis, that the aroma was tested by the nose. texture by feeling and various other attributes by sight and he said grading had been largely a matter of see, feel or smell. He declared that all smellers didn't work alike, all feelers didn't feel alike and all eyes didn't see alike. He also stated that he was Informed some dealers had bought hops as prime hops and sold them as choice or vice versa all Indicating a wide range of Ideas and metnods of arriving at the (trades. This subject, as in Santa Rosa, was expected to bring up considerable argument, as was the matter of making the code applicable to all hop growing sections of the country instead or to Just the three Pacific coast states.

DECLINES IN WHEAT PRICES Chicago, Jan. 31 OP) Announce ment the supreme court would make no Immediate decision In gold clause cases led to maximum de clines of 3 cents a bushel In wheat today. Commission houses and foreign interests were sellers following the announcement. Later, however, partial rallies ensued on account of buying ascribed to milling Inter ests and to traders who previously had been sellers. Wheat closed nervous, tt-1 cent down under Saturday's finish. May 97-, com H-1 down, May 86 -, oats unchanged to 4 off, and provisions varying from 15 cents decline to 13 cents advance. Wheat and corn suffered losses of about a cent a bushel. Cables said weakness of the Liverpool wheat market came from the fact there was a pause in demand, with Euro pean traders awaiting developments. In some quarters, a reason given for bearish sentiment here was the adage: "Never try to pull the tail end of a short crop." The Chicago wheat market has closed higher 4 successive days, and reactions ap peared in order. Corn and oats markets Ignored a sharp upturn of hog values, but pro visions were more or less respon sive to that influence. Chicago, Jan. 31 () Influenced by an unexpected downturn of wheat quotations at Liverpool, grain prices here underwent a setback to day. Possibility of a decision in gold clause cases had a tendency to restrict business. Opening un changed to H lower, May 9814-, the Chicago wheat market sagged all around. Com started unchanged to off, May 87(4-a, and showed a general decline. Continuation of Hauptm arm's From page One ready to refute any further attempt on the part of the defense to Impli cate the dead German furrier, isa dor Flsch, In the kidnaping and murder or collection of the ransom. A New York attorney, Albert D. Kurtz, the prosecutors said, has a diary showing that he and Flsch were together the day of the kid naping. Hauptmann claimed on his arrest that $14,600 ransom money found in his garage had been given to him by Flsch for safe keeping. A defense announcement on the same point was to the effect it had information Flsch used the name of "John" when he went back to Ger many to die of tuberculosis. A woman giving this information, Mrs. Curt schwarz, a Bronx housewife, has not promised to testify, how ever. Mrs. Schwarz was quoted by a de fense investigator as saying Flsch also wrote her and her husband signing his name as "John." The man to whom the ransom money was turned over in St. Ray mond's cemetery, the Bronx, by Dr. John F. (Jafsle) Condon called him self "John." Dr. Condon has sworn this was Hauptmann. A puzzling development was a re. port to police by a youth named Ro. bert Grant 18. at Hastings-on-Hud. son. N. Y, that he had been kid naped by two men who threatened to hold him as a hostage to prevent testimony for the defense by a man named Manly. Grant told the police he had furnished Manly'g name to the defense. The figure on Hauptmann assets given to the Jury by the government accountant, William E. Frank, trea sury agent, Included the $14,600 found In his garage and $120 in gold coins found in his home In the Bronx. Justice Thomas W. Trenchard surprised the attorneys by ordering the court reporter to repeat the am ount of the assets, $44,486, noting it, and remarking: "This may be of great Importance to me." Frank's testimony that three bro kerage accounts of the Hauptmann's jumped to stock purchase of $256, 443.15 In 1933, caused the defense to bring out on cross examination a lesson In margin dealings Frank testified Hauptmann began to deal on margin in 1930, and the defense elicited from his acknowl edgement that the books of a stock margin account would not show the money actually put In, that is, that It would not show the amount of the purchaser's equity In the account. Attorney General David T. Wil- entz brought out from Frank's testi mony that the $44,486 was exclusive of any cash loans made by Haupt mann. Hauptmann said after his arrest that he had loaned the dead Isador Flsch $7500. He also said Flsch had given him the ransom money for safe keeping, and that because of the unpaid loan he had begun to spend It without knowing what It was. It was Hauptmann's expenditure of a $10 gold note, a ransom bill, for gasoline, that led to his arrest in the Bronx, and to his subsequent in dictment as the kidnaper and mur derer of the Lindbergh baby. Detense counsel moved for mis trial In the case of Bruno Richard Hauptmann. being tried for murder In the Lindbergh kidnaping. Justice Trenchard denied the mo tion, treating It very casually. The motion came after Attorney General David T. Wllents had re ferred to a purchase of aviation stock by Hauptmann. Chief Defense Attorney Edward J.

One of the dis patches stated that the reason for the cancellation was "because- con struction had not been started." The city Immediately set about preparing to make a new applica tion. Mayor V. E. Kuhn and City Attorney Chris J. Kowltz were ol the opinion that with the new pub lic works administration set-up at Washington, and with the city, through its new council, making a convincing move toward acquisition of the water plant of the Oregon Washington Water Service com pany, a new application would be productive of favorable results. Listing a series of proposed SERA projects, In accordance with ad vice from O. O. Hockley, Oregon engineer for the PWA and the SERA, Mayor Kuhn and other city officials today Included the water project, placing the figure again at $3500,000. The mayor said that while It was not expected this loan would come through the SERA, nev ertheless he had been advised by the state office to Include It. The mayor was of the opinion that li a new application for the water works loan Is made federal money can be gotten at a more fa vorable rate of Interest than has been possible under the PWA here tofore. He said he has been unoffi cially advised to that effect. Commenting on today's news from Washington, the mayor said relative to the rescinded allotment: "I don't believe the loss of this loan is detrimental to the city In any respect, Inasmuch as the limi tation placed on the powers of the city in acceptance of the loan would have been so varied and complicated that it would have cost the city more In the long run than to go ahead purely on a bond sale basis." contract differentials, the mayor believed, would have off -set the grant portion of the loan, amount ing to 30 per cent of the allotment. City Attorney Kowltz said he didn't feel badly about Secretary Ickes' ac tion, since there is to be a new loan set-up at Washington. A new appli cation very similar to the old one probably will be prepared, he said. Meantime the city and the water company are going ahead with pre- lurilnaries to the condemnation suit now In the federal court at Portland. Walter E. Keyes, attorney for the water company, and Walter C. Winslow, special attorney for the city, are In Portland today arguing motions before Federal Judge James Alger Fee. Included In these Is a motion to quash the company's sup plemental answer and another is for setting of date for trial of the condemnation suit Relative to charges made at the city council meeting two weeks ago that the city was employing un necessary counsel in the water con- Poisoned Kidneys Stop Getting Vp Nifhta To htmlPMlT fluih rvMii-mi anrl aXet from kidney, tnd eerrtet irritation nt bltddr to that yon can itop "tettln up niBhU" tt J5 eent pcktt of Gold Medtl Hasi-ltm Oil Capsules and take as directed.

Today's action by Secretary Ickeg was forecast when the city, after stopping arbitration proceedings relative to value of the water plant, was Informed by the PWA that can cellation of the allotment would be recommended to the PWA by the engineers of that department at Washington. The city terminated arbitration when the board of arbi tration failed to complete the work within a stipulated period. .
