Ralls were strong from the out set, despite Indications that carload Ings this week will show a seasonal decline. Easing of the New York Central RFC loan situation added to reports of Increased earnings, brought strength to the carriers. Northern Pacific reached a new 1835 high at 23 for 2 points ad vance. Union Pacific was 2 higher at 104. Continued good earnings reports from the mining companies, plus favorable dividend action, brought buying Into metals. The rise also accompanied a sharp break In foreign gold currencies. The Bank of Prance statement showed gold reserves at the lowest level since June, 1032. This of course meant strengthening of the dollar, a situation entirely traceable to France's economic difficulties and possibility of devaluation of the franc. Motor equipment shares turned strong on Improving business. The utility situation was enliv ened with additional announce ments of Intention to test constitu tionality of the holding company act. American Telephone reached a 1935 high of 152 for a point gain and other leaders made fractional advances. Steel shares strengthened towards the close while specialties and some mercantile Issues Improved. Bonds were strong led by rails, wheat gained as much as 2 cents a bushel and cotton was strong.

The railroad average was at a new high fjr the year but the utility average slipped under the 1935 peak as utilities drifted from their highs In the last few minutes. 500 CARLOADS OF POTATOES SHIPPED Klamath Falls, Nov. 31 (P) Near ly 500 carloads of potatoes have gone out of this section to the Pa cific coast market, since November 1, according to Ross Aubrey, federal Inspector. Some shipments were completed In October but the November move ment represents the bulk. Buying has slowed down here considerably and It Is expected there will be an average of about a dozen cars a day until the crop Is exhausted. After the jump to the vicinity of 12 during the recent cold snap, the price has dropped back to around $1.25. While many farmers suffered heavy Individual losses, the potato Income In general has been greater this year due to higher bidding to offset the damago in the field.

Ht mer West and Mrs. Alice DowelU NORTH ITALIAN ARMY PURSUES FORCES OF RAS (Continued from page 1) men carried their dead as they lied. Italians reported they were pur suing the retreating Ethiopians with lull strength. The Italian command threw four battalions of infantry and one cav alry squadron into the chase hoping to outflank and encircle the Ethio pian forces before their commander could rally them to a new stand. An Italian aerial reconnaissance showed that Ethiopian forces, scattered by last Monday's bombing and machine gun 'raid in the Mai Mesclc valley, 10 miles south of Sce llcot, were concentrating again in the same locality. The air observers said the Ethio pian soldiers were adopting every natural means of shelter against another slaughter from the sky but that their efforts appeared untrain ed and without skill. The Italian losses in the fighting were reported as small; Ras Seyoum chose a moment for the encounter when only one Italian battalion, composed of native troops, confronted him. The encounter was near Abaro pass in the Temblen region, west of Makale. The Ethiopians directed a hot machine gun fire against the Ital ian forces from lofty mountain po sitions. After several hours of fighting, when three other Italian battalions and a squadron of cavalry came up to the aid of the beleaguered native battalion, Ras Seyoum's men melted away among the mountains. With the Italian Army at Makale, Ethiopia. Nov. 21 (P Undaunted by the Italian air forces' heavy bom bardment Monday at Buia, south of Makale, Ethiopian forces reassem bled there today apparently girding for attack. Air scouts reported the Ethiopians have returned to the region and taken up posts alongside dead bod ies of their comrades. The Buia territory forms a natu ral path to Amba Alaji. The gath ering of the native warriors there means to the Italian high command that fighting on a large scale may be expected as soon as the Italians attempt to march forward from Ma kale, and perhaps sooner. The Ethiopians' chitet (war drum) was reported throbbing throughout the whole southern Ti- gre province. Italian officers ac cordingly believe Ras Seyoum is gathering his forces in the Tembien region and getting ready for the as sault, with Irregulars to help his crack regular troops. Runners from a flying column of cavalry and nr.'ive Infantry, which has been mopping up in Temblen, west of Makale, reported a fair- sized concentration of Ethiopian troops routed and dispersed after a short battle. They added that Ras Seyoum'o chitet had so far brought but 600 warriors to his standard. Ras Burrus' drums have been sim ilarly heard along the Setlt river, the runners advised the command here, but had recruited only 800 tribesmen "of poor fighting qual ity" and three machine guns. PRICE OF ONIONS PLEASES GROWERS ! Hazel Qreen Advances in onion prices are bringing hopes of en couragement to the local Japanese celery and onion growers, who suf fered huge losses during the recent freeze. Estimates place the loss of celery between 70 and 80 carloads and let tuce losses were undetermined. Ac tual sales of onions were reported at $800 a carload, whtch would be about $1.66 cental, with options of fered at $1.75. Most growers are con tinuing to withhold their supplies from market even at the latter fig ure, a 25 cent increase . over the previous high of $1.50. Buyers were furnishing sacks and twine to the growers, with the new quotation. Reports indicate that the outside onion trade is depending on Ore gon for its late season needs.

At the close the major grain was 1-2'i cents a bushel higher, com was !4 lower to 'A higher, oats ',i lower to t4 higher, and rye -19l cents a bushel higher. Surprising strengtn in foreign and northwestern markets, unfav orable crop reports from the Argen tine and the reported sale of 60,000 bushels of red wheat In the local market brought general demand. Offerings dwindled. Eastern inter ests bought aggressively, forcing short covering. Outside participa tion Improved and trading was quite active. Most offerings came from privil ege holders and traders taking pro fits. An advance at Winnipeg in the face of reports the new government would adopt a more aggressive sell ing policy was a factor.

R. H. Baldock. state highway engineer, said today. If the route of the road Is ever changed, the highway will probably be turned off at Marshfield and not at North Bend, Baldock predicted. "Reconnaissance surveys looking very far Into the future are being made on the coast highway," Bal dock said. "One proposed new route would go to Charleston and Cape Arago and then down to Bandon. There are others being studied. "But so are surveys being made all over the state. We must look to the future to improvements of a permanent character will not be built where there is a possibility, of the road going anywhere else. But nothing will probably be done in re-routing the coast highway for ten, 15 or maybe 25 years. No one can say." , ' A survey of possible widening and oiling of the Scottsburg-Reedsport highway, for which the commission has tentatively set aside $50,000, will not be completed until February or March, and Improvements to the road will have to wait until the commission can act after that, Bal dock said. TRADE TREATY TEST PROPOSED Washington, Nov. 21 (yp) Former Senator C. C. Dill, Washington state democrat, suggested to lumber interests today that they join other Industries to test the reciprocal trade agreement law in the courts. Expressing belief the law was un constitutional, he said there were two things industries could do: "They can go to congress and get renewed excise taxes to over come the acts made by the presi dent, or they can go into court and test the legality of the grant of power given the president to make treaties without ratification by the senate. "The objection to the first action is that the president probably would veto any legislation Increasing the excise tax on Items In the pacts." The lumber Industry could insti tute court action to compel the collector 6r customs In a port of entry to charge the tariffs made by congress rather than those fixed by the president. Dill said. On the other hand, he added, lumbermen could Join representa tives of other Industries in such a suit, and bring an action covering many Items which suffered reduc tions of protection in any recipro cal trade agreements. He said, however, he would prefer to see ac tion against the Canadian pact alone. - TURKEYS SELL FROM 25 TO 26 CENTS LB. Portland, Ore., Nov. 21 (P) Tur key sales continued erratic todav with 24 to 27 cents being paid for one of the most extensive kills in years. Most sales were from 25 to 26 cents. Market operators said the 31V4- cent price set by the turkey poo' oi southern California for prime hens was so high it might lead to a con sumer revolt. . Freight differences would put the Portland price about a cent lower, The comment of some Portland operators follows: Rov Martindale of Swift & Co, "The market has been placed rather high but when one considers other meats and the advance in chickens over a year ago, turkeys are not so high." C. W. Norton of Northwest Poul try !c Dairy Products "The pool price looks a trifle high but Is not much higher than what some deal ers have been paying In the coun try, boxing and freight considered." Abe Welch of Oregon-Savinar Produce Exchange "It looks a tri fle high to me but there's fio telling what will happen when liberal kill ing and shipment to the south stop. They are still paying 26 to 27c loose net to growers in the. valley." Wallace J. Derthick of Portland Produce "Local receipts have been light because of speculative buying at high prices in the country. It Is too early to say what the local mar ket will do." Albert H. Clark of American Pro- duce-"Most supply is being ship ped. Trade Is still active on lighter weights, whtch are mostly desired."

Only fast action by the Gallup fire department prevented complete destruction of the unit, according to railroad officials. The stream-lined train was hitting an 80-mile an hour pace when the fire broke out about seven miles west of Gallup. It was halted at once, and most passengers did not at first even know what had happened, although two crew members suffered slight burns. The train was taken back to Gal lup. where eight of its coaches were held In the Santa Fe yards with two. inch flat spots cut by the emer. gency stop on their wheels. Meanwhile, extra crews were working along the Santa Fe line from Kansas City to the coast, con. dltlonlng the right of way for the new high-speed schedule of the Super-Chief. President S. T. Bledsoe of the Santa Fe announced the mishap would in no way affect plans of the company for the new high-speed schedule.
