while rails were steady to firm.
A few Issues had wide changes.

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.

Tardy Berries to
Keep Canneries
For Next Monlh
Latness of the season caused by
unusual weather, especially for
some types of berries, Is apt to push
the first half of the commercial
canning year here well toward the
end of July and with blackberries
coming along In August followed by
pears and prunes there will not be
the usual considerable space of time
between the two portions of the
canning season this year, say can
ners. 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

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

"We are still unprepared for war,
and it would take us years to pre

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.

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,
