Ten Trading Dull On N. Y. Market, Demand Limited New York, June 51 (U.B The rtock market made an irregular aa vance today with trading dull. Demand was so limited that some leading Issues were untraded. ouv t onlv came out once. Largest vol. lime was In Southern Pacific and Socony-Vacuum, which held at the previous closing levels. Steel shares were better on out look for a steel operating rate Just under 100 per cent of capacity. Cop pers were narrowly Irregular. Util ities held around the previous close while rails were steady to firm. A few Issues had wide changes. American Airlines lost nearly 4 points, while Vulcan Detlnning pre ferred gained a 4 point to a new high. J. I. Case opened at 60 off 2',i and failed to maku another appear- anoe. McLellan Stores gained 3 points on a single sale. Thompson- Starrett preferred was off more than a point. Armour preferred rose more than a point. Small gains were noted In American Smelting, Santa Fe, Con solidated Aircraft, Douglas Aircraft, Dow Chemical, International Nic kel, Kennecott, Proctor and Gamble, Sears Roebuck, Standard Oil, (N. J.) Union Carbide and Woolworth. Dow Jones closing stock averages'. Industriral, 122.51, up 0.32; rail, 27.99, up 0.06; utility, 17.16, off 0.02, and 66 stocks, 41.17, up 0.09.

Wheat Prices Boosted Today Chicago, June 21 (U.R) Moderate demand generated by a sharp rtin up at Minneapolis and strength In soy beans boosted wheat prices more than a cent a bushel today. After profit-taking, wheat closed to or a cent higher. Soy beans rose to the best level since 1937. The upturn was due to the strength In oils and lard. The close was 1 to 2 cents higher. Corn finished up to 1 cent; oats K to higher, and rye up 44. The December corn future estab lished a new top for the season. Demand was credited to profes sionals and commercial Interests. Cloudy to clear skies prevailed over the grain belt. The forecast was for showers and cooler weather.

The loganberries which started a week ago or so are still coming In very slowly with small deliveries only reported due to slow ripening and this crop may extend on into the middle of July. Boysenberries, one of the few Items not yet started, will probably not get to going until the latter part of next week and canners say they may stretch through most of July. Youngberrles have been go ing for some days but will probably last for three weeks yet. Raspberries will extend through most of July. While local red rasp berries have been rolling In for some time Reld, Murdoch company expect by next week the reds will be coining rapidly from the Leba non section where there are some large plantings. Ther red raspber ries look very fine so far. Blackcap raspberries also have been coming along but are not expected to last as long as the red raspberries. Marshall strawberries will prob ably extend along to July 1 and possibly past July 4 in the Silver ton hills where there are large quantities of fine .berries yet to be picked. The Red Heart strawber ries are still coming In but they are expected to be pretty nearly over this week. A lot of local cherries are not yet picked and these will probably run over into July although the cher ries from Hood River and The Dalles are expected to be wound up by the end of next week. These guesses by cannerymen are all dependent on weather conditions but good weather is apparently In the offing. Sewage Bonds Win Approval Glenn Gregg, chairman of the council sewage and drainage com mittee, announced today that the bonds for the city's share in the construction of the new $400,000 sewage disposal plant had been ap proved. The bonds have been In ttie hands of a Portland bond ex pert for some time. This new development leaves the way clear for further action on the construction of the huge plant. Monday night the council accepted the recommendation of Gregg's committee, and selected John Cun ningham and associates to super vise the actual construction of the disposal plant. A special meeting of the city council has been called for S p. m. Monday evening to authorize the city recorder and mayor to call for bids for the bonds. At the same meeting the council will handle any emergency matters that may arise concerning the air port. The American Guernsey Cattle club, Peterborough, N.

The association, the statement says, is organized for an entirely different purpose and only one time In re cent years has It ever been con sulted on either prices or control of production and that was at the direct request of federal and state Lindy Urges Negotiations To End War Hollywood, June 21 (IP) CoL Charles A. Lindbergh, urging that the United States stay out of war, says "the only way European civ ilization can be saved is by ending the war quickly through a nego tiated peace." "The alternative to a negotiated peace," he told an overflow crowd in 20,000 seat Hollywood Bowl last night, "Is either a Hitler victory or a prostrate Europe, and possibly a prostrate America as well. I tell you that the only way our Ameri can life and Ideals can be preserved is by staying out of this war. "We are still unprepared for war, and it would take us years to pre pare adequately for the type of war we now consider entering." The crowd stood and gave Lind bergh a shouted, hat throwing, flag waving ovation as he began his speech, his first in the far west. There were a few scattered hisses and boos, uttered so low they were heard only a few seats away. A front page editorial in the Times yesterday morning had said: "Lindbergh and his associates come here to enunciate certain con victions It is not Important that Lindbergh be heard, but vi tally important that he be given full opportunity to be heard." Lindbergh fidgeted from foot to foot as he read his speech. Others speaking on the program were Senator D. Worth Clark of Idaho, novelist Kathleen Norrls and Lillian Gish, former actress. Miss Benfer fo Speak Sunday Eve Miss Rachel Benfer, field secre tary for the national board of home missions of the Presbyterian church, will address members of the First Presbyterian congregation of this city Sunday evening. She will speak on the topic "Salty Disciples." Special music will be furnished by a mixed quartet and by a young people's choir of 25 voices, directed by Virginia Ward Elliott. The morning service will be featured by the singing of two anthems by the vested choir, "O For a Closer Walk with God" and "Arise O Lord." Rev. W. Irvin Williams will speak on the theme "Obedience." A special rally for all young peo ple's groups of the church will be held Sunday afternoon at B:30. A song service will be held, and Miss Benfer will speak on "Unputout ables." At the youth fellowship meeting following church services, final plans will be made by the members of a party planning to climb Mt. Hood Monday and Tues day of next week. Department stores of Japan are holding war propaganda shows. Plantonl , departments ot agriculture to pre vent demoralization of prices paid to cling peach growers. That price fixing, says the statement, was done by the government and sue cessfully. The statement points out the league has cooperated whole heart edly with the national defense council and office of production management, and through recent months has cooperated In an ef fort to pack and supply canned foods for Britain. It points out the canners are working In full co operation with three branches of government while a fourth, indicts them for supposed violations of the anti-trust laws. Through cooperation canners have improved and standardized the quality of their pack, continues the statement, at the close of each crop year have worked in coopera tion with the growers and have se cured and compiled historical in formation and studies as to trends of production, consumption and price and have met cooperatively with growers and university econ omists and discussed data which Is publio property. The league also, the statement says, conducts a traffic department which represents the Industry at conferences for rate making pur poses and for more than 20 years has printed and kept up to date standard contract buying forms which have nothing whatever to do with price. In conjunction with Chambers of Commerce the league has been active in seeing that production- for-use canneries confined their activities to the purpose for which they were Intended, aid for needy families, says the statement. It is pointed out that during the entire period covered by the indictments the canning business in California has been unprofitable and that this Is known by every banker and the reconstruction finance corpor ation. The statement points out that the department of Justice officials have publicly stated the prime pur pose of these blanket indictments being brought all over the country and covering all types of business operations is to prevent price spirals in war tmle. "We submit," concludes the state ment, "that the indictment of great numbers of business men in antici pation of what they might do is not the fair American way."

Fire Drill at Nydists Camp InEnoland Somewhere In Britain, June 21 (U.R) An attendant wearing a cock ney cap and knee-high firemen's boots and nothing else demon strated a stirrup-pump for fighting fires today at one of Britain's most popular nudist camps. A dozen undressed men and wom en watched the demonstration eartrly. Charles Macaskle, the grey-bearded, Scottish manager of the camp, said nudity is gaining popularity rapidly in Britain. "Possibly it's because when people come from air raid shelters, factor ies and the fighting forces, they real ly want to relax and get away from the war," he said. Tills camp is far from being out of the war, however. It has such air raid precautions as anti-splinter fabric on the windows of Its build ings, one air raid shelter and two stirrup pumps. It is situated In a section where many fighter, bomber and recon naissance training planes are based, and most pilots know the camp's lo cation by dead reckoning. Low-flying bomber squadrons skirt the trees and reconnaissance planes circle the camp daily. . ... Macaskle said several Royal Air Force officers on leave are resting in the nudist camp, Macaskie's camp provides weekly family rates under which a group of three can vacation without clothes as Inexpensively as $10 weekly, i Bethany Home from their school work and visiting at the home of their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Silas Torvend, are Miss Agnes Torvend who was a member of the Tangent high school faculty last school year, Legal No. own NOTICE OP HEARING OF FINAL ACCOUNT IN , THE COUNTY COORT OP THE STATE OP OREGON FOR THE COUNTY OP MARION In the Matter of the Estate. of ) Dale X.
