STOCK MARKET
NERVOUS OVER
WAR RUMORS
New York, Sept. 21 U The stock
market -was more orderly today
after Its plunge yesterday on a war
scare, although traders still were
cautious and the list balanced on
a hair-trigger.
Fluctuations were narrow with
gains and losses about equally di
vided. Many issues were unchanged
Trading was light but the atten
dance In Wall Sttreet was heavy.
Nervous traders flocked to the
Street. They were ready to unload
their holdings on an Instant's no
tice. Some of them placed stop-loss
orders to attempt to reduce loss
' es In event of a wild selling scram
ble. They studied the Italian news
carefully, especially the Italian re
lection of the League of Nations
peace plan, ,
At the opening small buying at'
traded by the lower prices produc
ed yesterday helped many Issues to
advance. Some gained further for
a time and then settled down to
narrow fluctuations.
Railroad issues made feeble res
ponse to the sharp rise in car load'
lngs reported yesterday. Fractional
advances were noted in Union Pa
cific, Atchison, Southern Pacific,
New York Central, and Southern
Pacific.
Chrysler was relatively active. It
moved over an arch of more than
a point and near the close was un
changed at 69. General Motors mov.
ed over an area of point. Motor
equipment issues moved narrowly
Farm equipments were slightly
higher despite a decline of about
a cent a bushel in wheat. Utilities
were fairly active with some of them
off a point or more. Steel shares
made gains, receded, and rallied
again to close practically unchang
ed. Electrical equipments, coppers.
silvers, mercantile Issues and some
of the oils were higher. Small loss'
es were made by such issues ai
American Telephone, Western Un
ion, Johns Manville, Du Pont, and
Timken Roller Bearing. American
Can lost an early gain of point.
Bonds were dull and steady. Itali
an government Issues rallied. U. S.
government bonds were mixed In a
narrow range In quiet trading. Rail
road bonds firmed toward the close
along with railroad stocks although
there was no heavy demand. French
government and United Kingdom
issues declined.
Volume approximated 680,000
shares last Saturday. Curb sales
were 118,000 shares compared with
126,000 shares last Saturday.
Dow Jones preliminary closing av
erages showed Industrial 128.16, up
0.36; railroad 35.08, up 0.08; utility
20.51 unchanged.
STEADY TONE
IN HOP TRADE
Pacific Coast hop markets main
tained a steady tone during the per
iod ending Sept. 18, according to
the weekly Hop Market Review or
the U. 8. Bureau of Agricultural
Economics. Trading in new crop
hops was about equal to the volume
of the previous week's business with
about 1,536 bales sold by coast grow
ers during the period principally in
California. Bales by Oregon grow
ers amounted to only about 220
bales with California. Sales by Ore
gon growers amounted to only about
220 bales with California sales to
taling around 1,316 bales. The prin
cipal demand was from domestic in
terests although there was some in
creased Inquiry from the United
Kingdom for United States hops.
Prices in all areas about unchanged
from those for the previous week.
The market tone held about steady
in all domestic markets with wme
improvement in demand and the
fir holding tendency of most grow
erc the principal strengthening fac
tors, although lighter production in
practically all coast producing areas
than was anticipated earlier in the
season was an additionl Influence
in the firmer situation.
Oregon hop markets were rathe
quiet with sales by growers totaling
only about 220 bales of which 100
bales brought 12c and 120 bales
brought 10c per lb., net to growers
for new crop Early Clusters, varia
tion, in price depending upon qual
ity. No sales of Fuggles or Lntc
Clusters were reported during the
period under review. Picking of the
Oregon hop crop !s expected to be
completed by around Sept. 21, with
most trade estimates indicating n
crop In this state of around 100,000
bales as compared with 125,000 bales
expected earlier In the season, as
compared with around 100,000 bales
harvested last year. Quality 1b re
ported as variable since red spider
Infestation and delay in picking B3
the result of the lack of pickers dur
ing the harvesting period tended to
reduce the grade of the crop.

NUT GROWERS
SEEK END TO
WALNUT CODE
Portland, Sept., 21 (fF) Dlscon
tinuance of the Pacific coast wal
nut marketing agreement was urg
ed last night at a hearing here
where a few hours earlier other
speakers declared the agreement
was the only means of saving the
industry from disaster.
Briefs filed with the chairman of
he hearing, Earl J. Smith of th?
department of agriculture, Wash
ington, D. C, will be forwarded to
Washington. Another hearing will
be held in Berkeley, Calif., Monday
A number of growers urged adop
tion of an agreement covering Ore
gon alone and divorced from the
California setup. William V. Dolph
of Newberg, Ore., presented signat
ures of growers representing 6700
acres, declaring flat opposition to
the present agreement, It was point
ed out that seven of the nine con
trol board members are Califor-
nlans.
Harry Daniels, Portland attorney
and stockholder of the Eugene FTUit
Growers' association, attacked the
action of his association manage
ment in backing the walnut market
ing agreement.
Proponents of the agreement were
headed by W. E. Goodspeed of Los
Angeles who declared -growers re
ceived $4 a bag more for their wal
nuts the past two years because ot
the agreement, and its continuance
was imperative with a record large
crop in sight.
Decision as to the marketing
plan for the 1935 crop will be an
nounced from Washington after all
the testimony is examined.
MAlETTil
AT WEEK-END
Portland, Ore., Sept. 21 (IP) The
butter market was unchanged Sat
urday. Butterfat was firm. While
in spots a slightly easier tone is sug
gested, general trading In the
cheese market is at least steady.
No change in price for the Pacific
slope.
Rather heavy demand from the
domestic territory is showing for
apples which is creating a strong
tone and well maintained price list
for carlots at primary points of Pa
cific northwest.
Surprising heavy output of to
matoes continues to be offered from
Willamette valley and local points.
Continued good weather has al
lowed maturity of a greater per
cent of the crop than normal.
Prices are weaker as a result.
PRUNE DRYING ON
WITH LARGE CROP
Prune dryinsr is now getting un
derway at virtually full blast and
there will be a large crop of prunes
according to reports but a large per
centage of small sizes. Some of the
canneries say that because of the
small sizes which they cannot han
dle In the cans there is apt to be
yet a shortage of requirements for
canned prunes but they hope to
receive enough and there is every
indication of a very large prune
pack being put up.
Prunes are reported to be having
a pretty fair sugar content and are
weighing more than earlier. County
Inspector Van Trump who has
been looking over driers reports
there seems to be a comparatively
larger crop in the hills than the
lowlands.
HOP PICKING TO
END NEXT WEEK
Hon picking Is expected to wind
up some time next week and earlier
estimates as to the size of the crop
are being revamped with one est!
mate being made of 100.000 bales
as compared to an 80.000 bale esti
mate when it was thought picking
might discontinue earlier. But
numerous yards have kept right on
going. Even at that this same es.
timator places a figure as high as
30.000 bales may be left unpicked.
Numerous big yards cut off about
a week ago leaving varying amounts
on the vines.
Red spider and other reasons
have caused some hops to be left
unpicked while difficulties In fi
nancing and a low and inactive
market have all contributed to the
same result.

See Why Anyone Wants
To Dwell in Noisy City
An advocate for more than a year of a "breathing spell
for business" as declared by President Roosevelt just re
cently Senator Charles L. McNary now is enjoying a
breathing spell himself at his'
country home fives miles north of
Salem after the strenuous duties
undertaken as republican leader In
the United States senate,
Sitting comfortably In one of the
many rockers on the lawn in front
of his cottage, Oregon's senior mem
ber of the senate receives dozens of
visitors dally and after visiting with

ADULT CLASS IN
SOCIAL SCIENCE
TO BE STARTED
Announcement of a class under
the new social security program, an
adult vocational-recreational class
In landscape gardening, practical
designing, psychology and social sci
ence combining as a unit was made
here today. William Berg, local
landscape architect, will head the
class.
"This Is a new promising and in
terestLng class with educational
values," said Mr. Berg," and you
will take back with you a little
more knowledge each day than when
you came.
A complete list of books will be
available at the class covering land
scaping, flowers of color and the
home, furnished by the state lib
rary, your local library or the lib'
ary at Oregon State college.
Prospective individuals who are
willing to participate, and who are
Interested in these subjects, should
bring in written form their particu.
lar kfnd of problems that they would
like to solve, whether nice lawns,
landscaping for avocation or com
pensation, and things of general in
terest that they would like to know.
Classes will be Informal, a sort
of 'Among Ourselves" spirit.
We are pioneering again, this
time In a new and rapidly chang
ing modernistic world and can no
loner live to the former tradition
of every one for himself and the
devil take the hindermost, the caus
es of the losses of our savings and
thrift, we are now realizing the
social discovery that all of us have
things in common and the need for
the origin of this new social secur
ity ; something people heretofore
have never undertaken as a nation
al program.
"Of course we have had our stan
dards; our land marks or objectives
and find ourselves tied down to our
mental stakes in which our rapidly
changing world has moved out from
under us leaving us caught in the
strain.
We are lending an ear to anv
authority to help guide the compass
of our ship of state which neces
sarily must come from that mental,
internal direction while we are out
at sea in rough waters under pres
sure. Great men are those wno re
alize that thoughts rule the world.
"If you don't have any troubles-
enroll any way. Classes start the
first part of October."
The government program for this
district is sponsored by Oregon

COUNTY ASKED TO
ASSIST FARMERS
Albany Cooperation of the Linn
county agent in the moving of farm
products, real property and sundry
other articles which farmers ma;
wish to sell was asked in a resolu
tion nassed Wednesday at a county
wide conference of granges held In
the Grand Prairie grange hall.
The resolution, passed at a gen
eral session, was the outgrowth of
discussions at a meeting of the ag
ricultural group. It was requested
that the county agent act as the
medium through which farmers who
have surplus agricultural products
or other goods may be placed, in
the hands of purchasers througn
contact by the agent with other
county agents, granges and similar
organizations throughout the state.
It was revealed that a Linn coun
ty farmer had several tons of rye
grass which he could not sell. In
southern Oregon another farmer
wanted ryegrass seed, which he
could not buy locally. It was sug
gested that the county agent act
as Intermediary to bring together
seller and buyer, cooperating with
similar agencies elsewhere.
State Grange Master GUI. who
was present and gave an address.
admonished the farmers that co
operation is the only valid solu
tion of the farmers' problems. It
will be necessary for the farmers
to pull together to place the agri
cultural industry on a plane with
other industries he said.
A number of other state grange
officers were present at the meet
ing.
more than I can understand," Mc
Nary said, and Impressions indicat
ed he meant every word of It. "I
am happy here to get away from
the noise and rush of Washington.
"I don't see why more people do
not live on the farm, perhaps not
as large as this place, but on several
acres, raise some chickens, a garden
and flowers. No, I don't think I
would want a cow."
The senator will discuss events of
the day and comment upon national
issues, but he said he had not read
anything lately but stories about the
Joe Louis fight and the baseball
gtmes. "I got weary of reading so
many reports and records far into
the night when I was in Washing
ton that I read very little here."
His dog Jacks, "a cur I picked up
once and which answers the pur
pose," is always with the senator.,
He is a handsome brown animal and :
is as friendly as the senator.
On his trip over his place, where
tall evergreens shade several springs,
McNary will take visitors over a
rustic bridge and can to his geese
to throw them corn. He stated he
now has 42 Eastern honkers he has
spoiled because he gets so much en
joyment out of them.
Behind the cottage Is a pretty
putting green where the solon often
can be found. A fine tennis court
has also been constructed on the
place.
Description of the farm home oi
McNary is difficult. When visitors
turn off the road his place Is mark
ed by a simple mall box on which
is inscribed "Chas. L. McNary"
they drive through his orchards,
then cross a small spring and pond.
filled with fish, to approach the
green ravine where larger ponds are
the playgrounds of the geese.
Extolling the pleasure of his farm
McNary said he built his cottage
eight years ago where there used
to be shacks to house hop pickers,
His place Is part of the old McNary
homesteady which has been in his
family for years, and is the Ore
gon hop territory.
When back from Washington Mc
Nary seldom leaves his place. He
has been to Salem, a few miles away.
only several times since his return
here a month ago. People come to
visit him and that route these days
is a well-beaten path. And when vis
itors leave he insists they return to
see him again soon.
Having all the qualifications with
the possible exception of geographic
position McNary is considered in
Oregon as the No. 1 republican,
nationally. He has been busy since
his return to his state, but the
change, he said, was restful. He dis
cusses national affairs frankly, but
only to those who keep his confi
dence. His informal talks are "off
the record.
Asked when he was going to start
his campaign for re-election to the
senate In 1936, he seid he never
campaigned, but spent all his time
working for his people of Oregon
right now on PWA project applica
tions. He said he went to the senate
18H years ago. Mrs. McNary and
their adopted baby are with him at
the farm.
OIL TANK RATE
CUT SUSPENDED
Railroads and truck lines squared
off today for a battle over rates on
the hauling of gasoline and petrol
eum products.
Southern Pacific railroads pro
posed reduced rates to run tank
cars between Marshfield and North
Bend docks and southern Oregon
cities were ordered suspended for
90 days by Public Utilities Commis
sioner McColloch.
The railroad sought to cut charg
es as much as 47 xh per cent. Truck
ers said such a reduction would put
them out of business.
The federal interstate commerce
commission and the state public
utilities commissioner were expected
to hold a Joint hearing on the rate
case.
Southern Pacific recently sought
to reduce rates from California re
fining plants in the San Francisco
bay area and southern California
to Medford and other southern Ore
gon cities, but I. C. C, suspended
the new tariffs for seven months
pending Investigation and a hear
ing. The railroad's proposed reduced
tariffs from Portland to southern
Oregon were set aside by P. U. C.
last week for 90 days.

WAR AGAINST
DREAD DISEASE
WILL NOT STOP
Between 30 and 40 degelates from
eight Willamette- Valley counties
attended the regional health insti
tute In Salem Friday sponsored by
the Oregon Tuberculosis association
and affiliated county public health
associations. Frederick D. Hopkins
of New York City, executive secre
tary, National Tuperculosis associa
tion, the principal speaker, report
ed a new low death rate for the di
sease, which he said would show 1934
under all previous years. Incom
plete reports put the rate at 56
deaths per 100,000 of the popula
tion or more than 70 per cent re
duction below the 200 rate obtain
ing In 1904 when the national or
ganization was formed. The cam
paign Is financed from the annual
Christmas seal sale.
"We and that includes physi
cians, nurses, educators, and you
and me have almost won the bat
tle against one of man's oldest
enemies. But almost Is not enough
In any war. With tuberculosis still
the chief cause of death in the age
group 15 to 45, and the second prin
cipal cause of death among all em
ployed males, almost will not do,
We must see this campaign through
to the finish. We the same we as
before know enough now to stamp
out tuberculosis. But it's the gap be'
tween what is known and what Is
applied and made use of that makes
this disease still one of the greatest
problems of civilized life."
Those attending the conference
held at the Salem chamber of com
merce rooms, were: Marion county,

WHEAT PRICES
Chicago, Sept. 21 (IP) Wheat
prices dropped under the dollar a
bushel level on the Chicago board
of trade today on weakness in for
eign markets and continued uncer
tainty over war news.
At the close wheat was H to V
cents ft bushel lower with all deliv
eries under the dollar level, corn
was cent higher to cents low
er, oats were cent higher to 4
cent lower, and rye was to 1 cent
lower.
A bearish Interpretation was plac
ed on the Argentine acreage esti
mate of 14,078.000 acres, compared
with 18.804,000 acres sown last year,
but 2,000,000 or more above the re
cent private estimates.
Week-end profit taking was also
against the market, as well as sharp
declines at Liverpool, Rotterdam
and Buenos Aiers. Continued liqui
dation was considered natural In
view of the sensational advances
last week.
General sentiment remained de
cidedly bullish as the world wheat
situation and prospects of a short
age remained unchanged. Traders
were hesitant until more definite de
velopments occur In the European
situation.
Buying In the new crop futures
was predicted on belief that a closer
adjustment between cash and fu
tures is Imminent.

"On the Sunday afternoon, a few
hours before Senator Long was
shot, he called Gov. Allen, A, P. Tug-
well, chairman of the state high
way commission and me into con
ference.
'Long told Tugwell he wanted him
for governor. Tugwell refused, even
after Long Insisted. Long then
called Judge Richard W. Leche (of
the court of appeals) and asked him
what his religion was. Leches reply
seemed to satisfy him, so he said
Leche would be the gubernatorial
candidate and I would be candidate
for lieutenant governor. I refused,
and said I wanted to be governor,
and suggested Allen Ellender, speak
er of the house, for lieutenant gov
ernor.
'No,' Long said. 'We're going to
run Leche, Wen take care of Ell
ender some other way, and you'll
be lletutenant governor. Then In
1038 we'll elect Leche to the supreme
court and you, Jimmy, can fill his
unexpired term as governor. Then
In 1040. we'll elect you governor

"After Long was shot and before
he died, I talked it over with Leche
and he Insisted he didn't want to
be governor. He told me, 'you oe
governor and I'll stay on the court
bench,."
One of last night's caucuses, com
prised in part of the Rev. Gerald
L. K. Smith, who has assumed lead
ership of Long's share-the-wealth
clubs, Public Service Commissioner
Wade O. Martin, and Supreme
Court Justice John B. Fournet, en
dorsed Noe's candidacy and that ot
Martin for Long's senate seat.
The other caucus, comprised In
the main of Weiss, Abe Shushan,
another of the Long politicians
under an Income tax fraud indict
ment, Robert L. Maestri, conserva
tion commissioner, and Earl Long,
Long's brother, met ostensibly to
nominate Ellender for governor. But
since Ellender was ill at his home
in Houma, it was reported to have
endorsed Judge Leche.
