FIRMER TONE
INDICATED IN
STOCK TRADE
..ew York. Aug. Jl fU.fi A firmer
cone developed In toe Its today as
adjournment of congress nearcd.
v Trading continued very light, with
many assent Because 01 uie mister,
lni heat
The market opened fractions to
more than a point lower, but slowly
rallied. Many leading Issues regis
tered gains. A part of a reputedly
short Interest covered. Small de
mand In the present thin market
resulted In quick recoveries.
U. 8. government bonds made
good recoveries. Buying followed
action of the federal reserve In re
ducing rediscount rates In Atlanta
and Chicago. Heretofore banks
were liquidating governments to
raise funds for business loans and
avoid obtaining mory through use
of the rediscount privilege because
of high rates.
Covering In U. 8. Steel sent It up
more than a point U. S. Rubber
gained substantially. Chrysler came
back more than a point Others to
gain a point or more included
American Smelting, Anaconda,
Bethlehem Steel and National Bis
cuit. Amusements showed strength un
der lead of Loew's which rose to
83 up 3tt. Paramount gained a
point to 23. Universal Pictures
preferred reached 62 up 7.
Rubbers recovered. Farm imple
ments firmed, except Deere & Co.,
which lost I'.i to 133. Mail order
and oil shares picked up. Steels
were higher with U. S. and motors
following Chrysler up. Boeing fea
tured a rise in the aviation group.
Oils were active, with pure oil
most heavily traded. Large amounts
of business were noted in Consoli
dated Oil and Phillips Petroleum,
which fluctuated narrowly and
were firm.
Firm copper abroad accounted for
a rise In copper shares. The rise
In steel shares was based on outlook
for early pickup In .operations when
the automobile companies increase
steel orders for new models.

Butter and Eggs
Firm for Week-End
Portland, Ore.. Aug. 21 flJ.R)
There was no change In the egg
market situation for the week-end.
Prices were mixed quite thoroughly
as Is quality. Desirable stuff is find
ing a very good sale with "rejects"
slow.
Piling up of butter In storage
continues with the movement Into
coolers unusually liberal In view of
the extreme lateness of the season.
Tomato market deal Is Increasing
rapidly locally and through the Pa
cific northwest generally. The Dal
les. Dillard, Wapato, Yakima and
even local points are contributing
but prices are showing only very
alight recession.
Because it Is difficult today to
secure well matured Yakima po
tatoes that will fill the Oregon
grade, operators are looking more
than ever to the local product.
Prices are steady.
Even though killers as a rule are
still quoting the extreme low point
to the country for light hens, they
are as a rule securing local places
for their actual needs.

STOCK ENTRIES
REAL PROBLEM
AT STATE FAIR
With opening of the Oregon State
fair more than two weeks away, live
stock entries are already giving the
management some concern. The pro.
blem is where to put all the stock
that will be on hand for the week's
exposition at the fairgrounds here.
Unusually large entries are already
on hand for the cattle, draft horse,
sheep and swine shows and every one
of thee promises to surpass previous
records. Even the giant new cattle
barn, now nearing completion, and
which will house 500 nead of cows
under one great roof, will not suf
fice for the cattle shows. In fact, fair
officials are already talking about
starting construction of additional
units immediately after the fair of
September 6 to 12.
A number of new exhibitors have
made stall and pen reservations and
this is particularly gratifying to fair
officials. One of the largest of these
will bring IS head of Ayrshire clear
from Hutch ins on, Kansas. These are
from the A. B. Williams and Son
ranch. Fred Daniel, Gallatin Gate
way, Mont., has entered 13 head of
Brown Swiss.
The largest entry to date in the
show of big farm horses comes from
P. D. Gernan of North Portland who
will bring 16 Percheron and Belgians.
Several Marion county Percheron
entries are in also.
Fifteen pens of sheep from the
Floyd T. Fox farm, Silverton, leads
the early entries in this division, with
H. D. Harms and Son of Canby
route 1, runners-up with 13 pens
entered. In the goat shows, entries
from Portland are leading so far,
with Margaretha Stetger having the
largest number of pens entered to
date.
Swine entries are led by Elmer
Stangel, Wilsonville, who will show
14 pens, and four fewer pens will
come from A. C. Overland farm
at Oswego.
Poultry and pigeon entries are also
coming strong. In a change in de
partment superintendents made this
week, Charley Evans of Salem will
supervise the pigeon and rabbit en
tries. Evans has in the past been a
winning exhibitor in the pigeon
shows, but under the ruling that no
superintendent can exhibit in the
department which he directs, he will
not exhibit this year.
MONTANANS VISITORS

RIFT IN PARTY
SPREAD WIDER
BY DEMOCRATS

the radio. He charged the broadcast
was arranged by the office of Post-master-Oeneral
Farley, the chair
man of the democratic National
committee.
Burke met the Ouffey attack with
a counter-attack on administration
policies.
"It was not until I came to see
the new deal could quickly be
changed Into a rotten deal," he said,
"that my enthusiasm waned for
some of the things I had been sup
porting." Holt made the most violent at
tack of all, brief though It was. He
said Ouffey "wants the honest men
out of the party so the bosses and
corruptlonlsts can have control."
Senator Plttman (D.-Nev.) aald
he never had felt he had the right
"to read any one out of the party."
Even the republicans took shot
at Ouffey, although they were
pleased by the split within demo
cratic ranks."
Senator White (R.-Me.) said it
was a "pretty raw proposition" com
ing from the chairman of a cam
paign committee.
Wheeler told the senate it was the
first time in 14 years, he had heard
a member, democratic or republican,
demand the defeat of a party col
league. Wheeler aaid "If you want to
drive us out of the democratic party,
if the bosses in New York, Pennsyl
vania, Kansas City and Chicago
want to drive us out, you won't have
much difficulty." '
Swinging abruptly toward Guffey,
Wheeler added, "and let me tell you
one thing; if you nominate your
governor or yourself for president
you won't have to drive us out."
Guffey'a action widened the open
rift in the party.
His broadcast address, without
precedent so far as political observ
ers recalled, named Senators O'Ma
honey of Wyoming, Burke of Ne
braska and Wheeler of Montana.
He flatly predicted the defeat of
O'Mahoney and Burke and said
Wheeler would have "plenty to do"
in the way of explaining before
1940.
Senator Wheeler, (D Mont.), told
the senate that Senator Guffey
didn't write the caustic radio ad
dress he delivered and was "afraid"
to deliver the speech on the sen
ate floor.
Wheeler's remarks on the floor
came while a quiet movement got
under way unofficially to depose
Guffey from the chairmanship of
the democratic senatorial campaign
committee.
O'Mahoney interrupted Wheder
to assert that if he had the power
he would not "change a word, or a
line, or a vote" of his record. In
ringing voice, he told Ouffey that
Ouffey had not harmed the sena
tors he had mentioned, but the
democratic party.
O'Mahoney, turning to face Guf
fey, shouted at him:
"The sooner we get that man re
moved from the position he occu
pies now, the better it will be for
the democratic party."
Burke, a leader of the bill's op
ponents, commented:
"When Senator Ouffey announces
that he Is going to see to tt that
Wheeler, O'Mahoney and Burke are
retired, I assume he speaks in the
double capacity of chairman of the
democratic senatorial committee
and White House spokesman.
"If that la true, we might Just
aa well forget Jefferson Island and
harmony dinners and get ready for
a real battle."
There was no Immediate com
ment from others, but many op
ponents of the bill openly were
angry.
Ouftey's speech was In sharp con
trast with recent statements by
Democratic Chairman James A.
Farley that there would be no re
prisals for opposition to the court
plan.
Coupled with a statement from
John L. Lewis questioning the abil
ity of democratic leaders to carry
out their program it aroused re
newed speculation on a poMlble new
political alignment by 1940.
He was aroused by the house
rules committee's refusal to allow
the wage-hour bill to reach the
house floor. The committee's ac
tion also drew a denunciation from
William Green, president of the
American Federation of Labor, rival
of the CIO.
Ouffey. In his speech last night,
intimated the battle for the court
bill was not over, despite the ad
ministration's defeat in the session
now closing.
"This congress." he said, "has
failed to grasp the greatest oppor
tunity for the establishment of a
true democracy In this nation that
has ever been afforded to any con
gress."
