Friday, November 21, 1941 Twelve The Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon Stocks Advance Irregularly After Set-Back New York, Nov. 21 (IP) The stock market found the going somewhat rough at times today but persistent bidding for rails and selected In dustrials eventually steamed up re coveries In other parts of the list. Even steels, which had lingered In the background from the start, tacked on modest plus signs in the final hour. While many leaders fail ed to get aboard, advances of frac tions to a point or so were well spread over the ticker tape at the close. Transfers were around 800, 000 shares. Prominently supported members of the share division included South ern Railway preferred, which hit a new 1941 high; Atlantic Coast Line, Union Pacific, Chrysler, U. S. Rub ber preferred, International Har vester, Eastman Kodak, General Electric and Kennecott. Lacking climbing vigor were Lig gett Myers "B," which slipped to a new low for the year; American Can, Dow Chemical, U.S. Gypsum, Woolworth and General Motors. Carrier loans were selective up ward movers In the bond depart ment. Commodities were a shade Dow Jones closing stock averages: Industrial, 117.05, up 0.37; roil, 28.42, up 0.50; utility, 15.82, up 0.01, and 65 Stocks, 39.70 up 0.25. Btock sales approximated 850,000 shares against boo.ooo Wednesday. Curb stock sales were 202,000 shares compared with 197,000 in the pre hollday session. Grain Futures Hold Steady Chicago, Nov. 21 (U.PJ Grain fu tures held about steady In dull post holiday dealings today. Soy beans eased in early trading, but rallied in the final minutes to recover about half of the extreme losses. Closing wheat prices were cent lower to V cent higher; corn was unchanged to up W; oats off to up rye unchanged; and soy beans off Weakness in soy beans was at tributed to a forecast for cold weather which will aid harvesting. Today's receipts were estimated at 273 cars. Liquidation of December wheat contracts Imparted an easier tone to that option, but other deliveries held about steady. Corn prices continued firm, help ed by the higher loan rate, which served to reverse the downward trend that followed the govern ment estimate of a bumper crop this year. Skies over the grain belt were mostly clear today. A cold wave, accompanied by light scattered snow was forecast for the week-end.

The points of that policy, as ap proved by delegates from 37 states attending the closing session of the farm organization's annual con vention, Included: Take "all necessary means" to supply goods and munitions to na tions opposing aggression. Maintain defense zones "far euough beyond the territorial lim its" of the western hemisphere to give reasonable security agalsnt aerial anad sea attack." Maintain the status quo In the Pacific because of its "necessity for the country's economic security." Maintain the Monroe Doctrine and the "good neighbor policy." The latter, however, should "not be maintained at the expense of American agriculture.'1 The grange Insisted that during the present International crisis the administration advise congress and the people on the general alms of Its foreign policy and that the princi ples of free speech, free press and free assembly be maintained except that military secrets be not reveal ed. The grange also asked that all boards charged with responsibility of mobilizing defense efforts provide for "actual and effective" represen tation for agriculture. It asked fur ther that agriculture be given rep resentation at the peace table.

Mistaken Identity In Forged Check Case (Continued might have knowledge of the checks and the Investigation was made through a district attorney's office down there at the request of the local prosecutor. It then developed that the Swen son woman, who according to Cali fornia advices has admitted all of the check passing to Superinten dent McCormick at the Tehachapl woman's prison, Is of the same height, same weight, has appearance of being the same age as Mrs. Young, although there Is an actual age discrepancy of six years. But to top this off, two handwriting experts compared handwritings of the wo men which were declared identical. The California Investigator stated in his report that he compared the handwriting on the Hotel Marlon checks with a letter Mrs. Swenson wrote to the superintendent of the Good Chance Of Armistice On Finn Front Helsinki, Nov. 21 (U.B Well In formed quarters said today that as result of negotiations between Pin land and the United States there was a "good chance" of an armis tice between Finland and Russia. It was said, however, that before there could be even a "tacit armis tice" Finland would like certain as surances from Britain and the United States regarding her future frontiers. Russian reaction to the Finnish rely to an American note urging Finland to cease hostilities did not bar the way to sucess in present Finnish-American negotiations, it was said. Britain has not yet declared war on Finland despite Russian pr sure. This, lt was said, indicates that Britain Is willing, at least, to await the outcome of Finnish-Amer lean talks before acting. Well Informed Finnish quarters said there could be no question at present of real peace with Russia, but, lt was said, there was a possi bility of a more or less "tacit" ces sation of hostilities pending a gen eral peace conference and a final settlement of frontiers. A well informed source said there is reason to assume that negotia- tlons of far-reaching significance among "all concerned" now are be ing conducted at Helsinki. The view was expressed that Fin land's "comrade in arms" (Ger many) would have no objection to a solution under which Finland and Russia would have a "tacit armis tice." Holiday Upswing In Stores Observed New York, Nov. 21 VP The usual holiday upswing In sales appeared in retail stores this week, aided sub stantially by p r e p a r a t i o ns Ior Thanksgiving, fall clearances and early Christmas shopping, Dun & Bradstreet reported today. "Shoppers- greatest emphasis on wearing apparel and other soft goods," the agency review said, "in dicated a definite shift from the durable type of merchandise which was most in demand during the buy ing spree of August and September. "With defense production gains offsetting curtailment in non-defense lines, the over-all rate of out put held solidly at record levels." In 32 states which celebrated Thanksgiving this week, the review noted, most retailers took this occa sion to inaugurate the holiday seas on. Stocks in most centers were re ported at record levels. For the country as a whole the agency estimated retail turnover at IS to 22 per cent better than a year ago, he broadest margin of Increase in six weeks. In the major regions the increases were as follows: New England, 12 to 18 per cent east, 12 to 15; middle west, 14 to 20 south, IS to 23; southwest, 20 to 25; northwest, 11 to 14, and Pacific coast, 15 to 20.

Salem, Oregon from page 1) prison in California and he states In his reports "It does not take a handwriting expert to see that they are Identical." Almost every feature about the women seemed to be similar as to physical characteristics exceptt their fingertips, states District Attorney Hayden. These, of course, proved very dissimilar. The report of the California in vestigator says that Mrs. Swenson who admits writing the checks ad vised that after she wrote the checks here she knew that she would be picked up by Oregon officers if she remained around here "so I beat it to California as I'd rather serve time there than In Oregon." She passed some checks there and had her wish granted, according to re port. The checks as passed here were signed variously by the names of "Eugenia Stevens," "Ella G. Swen son," and on the hotel register she signed as "Mrs. H. J. Stevens." The fact that one of the checks here was signed by Ellen G. Swenson, the same name as she is listed under In the California prison, gave a clue to the possibility of there having been a mixup in the identities. So strange a physical similarity existed, lt was stated, that one of the witnesses Identified both Mrs. Young and the Swenson woman as the same. The district attorney stated that in addition to asking dismissal of the indictment against Mrs. Marie Young he also will ask that a "hold order" be placed at the woman's prison In California for Mrs. Swen son. District Attorney Hayden said that the Tehachapl Womens prison is the fifth in which records show Mrs. Swenson has served. Vitamin C Syphilis Cure Chicago, Nov. 21 UP) Physicians reported today new evidence that ordinary vitamin C can help in the medical treatment of syphilis. The vitamin C, or ascorcic acid, may solve the problem of bad re actions in persons especially sensi tive to the anti-syphilis drugs de rived from arsenic. This was reported in the Journal of the American Medical associa tion by Dr. Herman N. Bundesen, president of the Chicago board of health, and Drs. Hans C. S. Aron, Regina S. Greenebaum, Chester J. Farmer and Arthur F. Abt, all of Chicago. The number of people sensitive to the arsenic drugs Is still consid erable, the reactions ranging from mild upsets to death. The doctors found that the re actions apparently were due to the formation of poisonous matter when the drugs were exposed to oxygen in the blood. Even when In contact with air, solutions of the drugs turn a brown ish black as oxidation products are formed, but this oxidation was pre vented for 48 hours when one part arsenic acid was added to three parts of the drug. The doctors, after patch tests on 115 patients and other studies, con cluded that the vitamin C promises to assist in preventing reactions to those anti-syphilis drugs in the great majority ot patients. Continuation" of Woman Gang Leader from page 1 on technical grounds. Once before Juanlta SplnelH had been close to death in June, the night before the first of two re prieves Governor Cuthbert L. Ol son granted so that he might look at greater length into the circum stances of her case. This time there was little spirit in her, save once when she stirred to speak a curse against those who would put her to death. "My blood will burn holes into their bodies," she said. "Before six months have passed they will be punished." The Duchess was convicted of di recting the murder of Robert Sher rard, young, spineless member of her gang who they feared would tell police of previous escapades. Sherrard, only 19, was drugged with knockout drops before being thrown into the Sacramento river In April, 1940.
