Newspaper Page Text1 Friday, June 21, 1940 The Capital Journal, Salem Oregon l en Stock Dealings At Standstill In Listless Day New York, June 21 W Stock market dealings almost came to a halt today, and prices shifted nar rowly, as many traders remained Inactive pending publication of the German-French armistice details. Apathy, prevailing at the start, continued during the remainder of the session and transfers, for the five hours, approximated 300,000 shares, one of the smallest aggre gates In nearly a year. Gains and losses of fractions were pretty evenly split at the close. Steels were aided by another boost In the scrap metal. Motors kept their balance along with a handful of specialties, rails, motors and utili ties. Resistant were U. S. Steel, Beth lehem, Chrysler, General Motors, Douglas Aircraft, United Aircraft, Glenn Martin, Allied Chemical, Consolidated Edison, Johns-Man-ville, Eastman Kodak, Brooklyn Manhattan Transit, Santa Pe and N. Y. Central. Backward the greater part of the day were American Telephone, American Smelting, J. C. Penney, Montgomery Ward, Sears Roebuck, International Nickel and General Electric. Rail loans were the best In a list less bond department. Major com moditis were relatively steady. Dow Jones preliminary closing stock averages: Industrial 122.61, up 0.26; rail 25.53, up 0.02; utility 21.13 up 0.03; and 63 stocks 41.21, up 0.07. Stock sales approximated only 330,000 shares, the smallest for a live hour session since July 10 last year when only 260,000 were turn ed over. Yesterday's volume was 590,000 shares. Curb stock sales were 75,000 against 103,000 in the previous session. Buoyant Retail Sales Rule Week New York, June 21 (A1) Buoyant retail sales ruled shopping In the nation's retail stores this week for the third weekly period In a row, Dun to Bradstreet reported today. Sales for the country as a whole averaged 6 to 11 percent above last year, the credit agency satd. While gift sales for June weddings and schol and college graduations attracted heavy buying, there was a strong undertone in staple Items also, with heavy turnover in annual clearances of rugs and other floor coverings. "Although promotional or seasonal merchandise topped the sales list, trade was of a general character which merchants considered a heavy sign," the agency said. "Buying of men's wear, often con sidered a barometer of consumer sentiment, moved well. After suc cessful Father's day promotions, It was welcomed as an especially fav orable indlctator. "Refrigerators were said to be In less demand than a month ago, but ranges and small appliances contin ued active, and some stores said the slump early In May had already been more than overcome." Wholesale trade also expanded, with increased Inquiries for metal housewares, liquors, woolen goods, and staple dry goods. Fall commit ments, however, were still being placed cautiously, the agency said, although "a more liberal attitude" was noted by wholesalers among an Increasing number of buyers, par ticularly those from Industrial re gions. Salem Markets Complied from reports of Sa lem dealers, for the guldanc. of Capital Journal readers. (Revised dally). Not guaran teed.

The loganberries are being pro cessed through Paulus brothers and Hunt brothers canneries, the grow ers taking their choice as to where to deliver. Three men are in charge here for the commodities corporation on the deal and all fruit is government inspected before and after it goes into the cans. The fruit will be distributed by the government with school free lunches. The corporation has offices with the Chamber of Commerce and is still taking growers' offers to sell at the 2lA cent per pound price fixed for the surplus berries. Indications are that virtually all of the tonnage not taken by private purchase by the canneries will be absorbed in the deal. One of the canneries had contracts which took the equivalent of what its old growers deiivered last year and in a number of cases the growers have more than last year and these ab sorb some of the surplus. Another of the canneries had a deal where it was taking half of the product of the growers contracted with and the other half will go. into the gov ernment deal so the total will prob ably reach around the 1,200 mark approved as well as take up prac tically all of the slack. Quiet Trend In Wheat Chicago, June 21 (U.R) Wheat prices held within a narrow range today In one of the quietest sessions of the year. Prices were somewhat higher most of the session. Wheat closed unchanged to cent higher, July 78U-78V4. Corn was up tt-Vi cent, July 62-62U, oats unchanged to M cent higher, July 3UB, and rye unchanged to down Js cent, July 4191a, Soy beans were cent higher, July 78b. Traders in the wheat pit were in clined to hold back pending re ports on the outcome of peace ne- gotiatlons between France and the axis powers. Outside wheat mar kets also felt the lack of trading Interest and price fluctuations re mained near previous closing lev els. Export interest was flat. Scattered demand In the first half of the session gave the Chi cago market a firmer tone. Prices steadied at fractionally higher lev els. Light buying interest was par tially offset by selling, believed to be against purchases of wheat at Minneapolis, Corn trade followed wheat and volume was very light. No shipping sales had been reported at noon and bookings to-arrlve amounted to only 1,500 bushels. Receipts on track in Chicago were estimated early at 303 cars. Other grains reflected the ex treme quietness in wheat dealings and price movements were small Soy beans showed some firmness.

The carrier, planned to carry around 100 planes, is expected to cost more than $60,000,000. Navy officials estimated the construction cost would be $48,000,000 without armor, armament and ammunition. Funds for the new carrier were provided in the annual navy appro priation bill approved by President Roosevelt last week. Construction of 22 other warships provided for In that measure, and which are to cost approximately $350,000,000 was assigned within a few hours after Mr. Roosevelt signed the appropriation. Money to build three other car riers, in addition to the one as signed today, was included In an emergency defense appropriation nearing completion in congress. The carrier whose construction was assigned today will be the larg est United States ship especially designed to carry war planes. Two other carriers now in service, the Lexington and Saratoga, are larger 33,000 tons each but both were converted from battle cruisers. The navy said work on the new vessels would start immediately and was expected to be finished within 48 months.

Lord Athloiw is the king's repre sentative in Canada. - The emergency conscription bill permits the cabinet to rule by de cree and will enable Canada to uti lize every resource In waging total war. It was passed unanimously by the house and without a record vote, the members pounding their desks to signify their approval. The senate, in turn, rushed it through the required three readings and passed lt in less than an hour. Government Senate Leader Raoul Dandurand told the upper chamber that the calling up of men under the measure would begin "before the next session of parliament." Nominal Prices Of 35 cts. for Hops Portland, June 21 (P) Nominal values of about 35 cents a pound prevailed on regular type 1940 clus ter hops today in the absence of ac tual transactions. Seedless types on this year's crop ranged around 40 to 41 cents a pound. Interest centered primarily on the condition of the new crop and some reports said the week was less favorable than the previous period. Many small vines have not develop ed satisfactorily and the downy mil dew spread has been heavy. Most trade advices to the depart ment of agriculture marketing ser vice said the Oregon output would bo well below average. Weather Stops Mold in Onions Hazel Green The recent warm weather was a boon to the onion growers, as the spread of mold, due to the sultry weather conditions, was becoming a menace in the seed on ions and also making headway among the new crop. But with the change In weather the danger has been removed and lt Is hoped noth ing further will happen to mar the prospects of a bumper crop for 1940. Some growers in the La bish Center region have reported losses by maggots which have caused considerable damage to the small onions, but so far this com munity has reported no such dam age. Picking of youngberrles has com menced in the Alvln Van Cleave patch and also harvesting of lo- gans is well under way in the Sharp and Charles Ziellnski fields Cherry picking will be completed soon as the yield was light in most of the local orchards.

Hitler Receives French Envoys In Foch Car (Continued from page 1) Itary precision. He arrived at 3:15 pjn. with his top military leaders as well as Rudolf Hess, his deputy for party affairs, and Foreign Min ister von Ribbentrop. The fuehrer surveyed with inter est the railway car, which had been moved out of the special building where the French had enshrined it at the exact spot where it stood when Foch dictated the 1918 ar mistice terms. Inside Hitler occupied the same seat that had been occupied by Foch. Hitler Leaves French As he looked out the railroad car window he could see a nearby mar ble bust of Foch. When Hitler left the car, a band played "Deutschland Uber Alles" ("Germany Above All") and the nazl party hymn, the Horst Wessel song. The French representatives were left behind to consider the terms handed them. The French officers had been provided a tent for their quarters outside the railway car. Telephone facilities were installed to permit them to call their government. Those Present (German) Field Marshal Her mann Wilhelm Goering, Grand Ad miral Erich Raeder, von Ribben trop, (French) Rear Admiral Mau- rlse Athanase LeLuc, General Charles Huntziger, Leon Noel, Gen eral of Aviation Jean Marie Joseph Bergeret, (Genman) Hess and Kei tel. The French listened silently while Keltel read. Then they filed out to their tent to telephone their government. Hitler reviewed an honor guard outside the car while the band thumped out German anthems; i then left Compiegne as swiftly as he had arrived. When the French delegates ent ered the old car, Hitler and his staff rose to greet them in con trast, German officials asserted, to the manner In which the German delegates were greeted in 1918. Then, it was declared, the victorious French did not rise. 1 Nazi Salute Hitler and his staff gave the nazi salute and the fuehrer asked Keitel to read the preamble. The general immediately began. Beside the officials present, the only others to witness the ceremony were German and foreign newspa permen and officials of the foreign office and the propaganda minis try. Only the preamble, with its state ment of broad purposes, was made public immediately. The detailed terms for the arm istice which the French took to their tent were not disclosed at once. Gentian authorities previously had said the terms would not be published until France had accept ed or rejected them. A guard greeted the fuehrer as he arrived at the railway car. Looks at Monument After saluting the Alsace-Lor raine monument, Hitler walked down a long lane in the hot sun to where another monument to Marshal Foch stands in commem oration of the 1918 armistice. With arms folded, Hitler looked at the inscriptions, then quickly ent ered the car. Dr. Paul Schmidt, the fuehrer's famous interpreter, read a French translation of the preamble after the German version was read by Keitel. After Hitler's departure Keitel and the general staff officers re mained In the railway coach to dis cuss technical details of the ca pitulation. At 4:24 p. m. (6:24 p. m. PST) the French left the car for the nearby tent where telephone, writing and other facilities were provided them. Stopped in Paris The French envoys passed ad vanced German lines near Tours yesterday. There, Lieutenant Gen eral von Tip Pelskirch, chief army quartermaster, received them and acompanied them to Compiegne. They stayed over night in a Paris hotel, then continued the Journey to nearby Compiegne. Lieutenant General Thomas, com mander of the fuehrer's headquart ers, received them and took them to the actual scene. German sentries stood at all paths leading into the forest and the entire zone was blocked off. Hitler was taken swiftly from the forest, streaked by the hot sun, its trees shattered anew by artillery fire, Its soil again soaked with French and German blood.
