Stocks Decline
On Wide Front
In Fair Volume
New York, Jan. 21 W) Stock
market resistance levels were soft
ened a bit today with a recurrence
of nressure on iteels, aircraft and
Industrial blue chips and losses of
tractions to a point or more were
established over a wide front. Vol
ume was around 600,000 shares.
One of the firmer share perform
ers was Patlno mines which edged
up a point or so at one time. The
stock has been prominent lately In
connection with reports of enlarged
shipments of tin from Its mines In
Bolivia to the United States to make
up in part for supplies cut off by
war in the Orient.
DuPont and J. C. Penney slipped
to new 1941-42 lows. Others In the
minus division Included U. S. Steel,
Bethlehem, Chrysler, DouBlas, Unit
ed Aircraft, American Telephone,
Westlnghouse, Dow Chemical, du
Pont, Union Carbide, Eastman,
Standard Oil (NJ), Southern Pa
cific, Southern Railway and Santa
Fe.
Bonds yielded some of their gains
scored earlier In the week.
Rubber Plants
Tested in Oregon
Corvallls, Ore., Jan. 21 (U.R) Milky
Juice plants readily grown In Ore
gon will be tested at Oregon State
College as possible sources of rub
ber, Q. R. Hyslop, head of the
plant Industries department, said
today.
Hyslop disclosed that rubber con
tent of many of these plants was
high around maturity, perhaps
high enough to be of economic im
portance. The department planned
to set out a number of newly milky
Juice annuals and perennials for
testing.
Hyslop had Just returned from
Washington where he conferred
with officials In charge of rubber
plant Investigations In the bureau
of plant Industry. He said that
guayule, now grown In the south
west, was considered the most likely
source of domestic rubber supply.
Experts discounted Russian re
ports that a dandelion known as
kok-sagyz was a good source of rub
ber. Tests have shown the dandelion
produces only 30-50 pounds of rub
ber an acre Instead of the much
higher total carried in early reports.
Such a low yield, Hyslop said,
would not be suitable in this coun
try. Salem Markets

recaptured all lost ground.
"Enemy losses were very heavy,"
the communique said. "Our casual
ties were relatively moderate."
Surprise Raid
Far north of the main battle sec
tor, in upper Luzon Island, the war
department said a guerrilla band of
Gen. Mac Arthur's forces staged a
surprise raid on a Japanese air
field at Tuguegarao, killing 110
enemy troops and putting 300 others
to flight.
Coincidental, the Russian army
newspaper Red Star estimated that
about 6,000 American and 32,000 Fil
ipino native troops were opposing
100,000 Japanese In Luzon.
An official Tokyo broadcast as
serted that allied warships had ent
ered the critical battle of Singapore
even as Japan's navy minister, Vice
Admiral Shigetaro Shimada, boast
ed that the Japanese navy "virtually
commands the Pacific from Malaya
and the Indies to the west coast of
the United States."
On the same exultant note, Pre
mier Gen. Hidekl Tojo asserted that
Japan planned "increasingly vigor
ous operations" in the Pacific and
would continue fighting until the
United States and Britain were
"brought to their knees."
Japanese front line dispatches
said battle flags of the rising sun
were advancing southward along the
Malayan west coast "in spite of gun
fire from enemy ships" In the strait
of Malacca, which lives between the
Malay peninsula and the Dutch
East Indies island of Sumatra.
British military quarters conceded
that Japanese troops apparently
arriving in small boats which hug
ged the shore continued to land
along the Malay coast during the
past 24 hours, striking ahead of the
main Japanese invasion army to
harass the British west flank.
Strong Japanese pressure also was
reported against a British commun
ications highway running southeast
from the Muar river sector, 90 miles
north of Singapore, where British
Australian and imperial Indian
troops were struggling to halt the
main Japanese onslaught.
It was in this sector that Tokyo
asserted 20,000 British were trap
ped.
Peach Orchards
Weather-Damaged
Jefferson, Jan. 21 It Is reported
that the recent freezing weather and
silver thaw have greatly damaged
the peach orchards In this locality
and nearby districts. Many of the
older trees were broken at the
trunks, while many limbs were split
off. Some of the growers think the
blossom buds were far enough along
to be frozen. Considerable damage
has also been done in the prune
orchards. The walnut orchards, as
a whole, escaped with less damage
than the fruit orchards.

Sugar Sales Curtailed
By Salem Retailers
Sugar sales are being cut in Salem by retailers due to
a rationing order which has gone into effect by the govern
ment as to jobbers who have been restricted to purchases of
sugar Dased on the amounts they'
handled during the year 1940,
cording to information which has
reached the hands of grocers here.
To date 10 rationing order has
been received directly affecting re
tailers, but by the regulation of the
amounts which can be handled by
jobbers it is put up to the retailers
to make as equitable a distribution
of the sugar among customers as
possible.
W. J. Buslck, well known local
grocer, stated today that the gro
cers feel generally there will be
enough sugar for needs of the con
sumers unless the consumers get
panicky and attempt to hoard by
buying available amounts from one
retail store to another. He stated
the grocers feel there will be no
necessity for such attempts at
hoarding If the consumers continue
to use their customary amounts
of sugar without endeavoring chisel
ling methods such as that mention
ed.
Local retail stores have curtailed
their sales down to a maximum
of 25 pounds to a customer and
in some cases curtailments are said
to be as low as 10 pounds to a cus
tomer.
Outside of the restriction on what
sugar they are able to get the re
tailers are working under no govern
ment Inhibitions, as yet, but it is
considered likely if consumers fall
to cooperate the rationing plan as
to retailers may be put Into effect,
and if it is lt will probably be vig
orously enforced. They point out,
it is as much to the interest of the
consumer, or more In fact than to
the dealer, not to attempt to hoard
by devious methods.
Jobbers, state the retailers, are
closely restricted which means they
have to parcel out to their retail
store customers only the amounts
used by them in 1940, or make such
adjustments as will make the sugar
go around In the most equitable
way possible.
Silverton Caffle
Killed by Dogs
Paul Marnach, dog license en
forcement officer, reports the first
Instance on file in his office of cattle
being slain by dogs, Ike Seism,
route 2, Silverton, suffering the
loss of two eight-months-old calves
and injury to a cow due to an at
tack from two dogs.
Marnach stated that one dog, half
husky and half collie, was caught
in the act of killing one of the calves
and was himself killed on the spot.
The other dog, said to have also
been a mongrel, got away but in
vestigation by Marnach identified
the dog which he killed yesterday,
and the owner of the dog recom
pensed Seism for his lost animals.
While Marnach says this is the
first instance of cattle being killed
in this county by dogs as far as his
records show, he states there was
a similar one In Yamhill county
some time ago.

Consolidation of
Milk Routes Talked
Officers of the Milk Producers'
and Distributors' association at a
meeting last night gave considera
tion to consolidation of milk routes
for conservation of tires and also
reached a decision to recommend
every other day delivery to the as
sociation. The ultimate answer to the tire
problem may be found in horse
drawn delivery wagons, it was stat
ed. They urge that people search
their homes for milk containers to
turn over to the dairymen as a
shortage of bottles threatens.
Consolidation of milk routes, it
was pointed out, would probably
eliminate a large amount of route
duplication.

Allowances for
Families of
Enlisted Men
Washington, Jan. 21 W) War
and navy department support "in
principle" was claimed by interested
legislators today for proposed le
gislation requiring enlistment in
the armed services to allot $15 of
their monthly pay to dependent
wives and children, with the gov
ernment matching or bettering that
with an additional allowance to
families.
Such was the system adopted six
months after the United States
entered the World war in 1917. Be
fore the armistice, about 400,000
men were making allotments to re
latives struggling in the economic
backwash of the war.
Rep. Edmlston (D-W.Va.) intro
duced the new legislation after
conferences with leaders of veterans'
organizations. He said today that
service officials favored its objec
tive, but questioned its government
allowances, in some instances much
higher than those in the 1917 act.
The measure would cover regulars
as well as selectees.
The West Virginian said the need
for the legislation would be ac
centuated if the government decides
that adequate manpower cannot be
obtained without tightening draft
regulations on dependency defer
ments. Selective service officials have ex
pressed hope that present liberal
rules governing dependents can be
maintained. Nevertheless, they have
ordered re-examination of the 7,
500,000 registrants excused because
of claims that they are supporting
one or more relatives with a view
to ascertaining whether such de
pendencies still exist or whether
"convenient marriages" were invol
ved. Stolen Car Bangs Info

not know his car was gone.

Soybeans and
Corn Advance
Chicago, Jan. 21 (U.PJ Strength In
corn and soy beans sparked a mod
est advance in grain futures today.
Soy beans rose nearly 4 cents a
bushel at their tops with the July
delivery reaching a new seasonal
peak. Closing bean prices showed
net gains of 3 to 3'i cents a bushel;
wheat was up 71 to 1; corn up l'
to 1; oats up Vt to ; and rye up
IU to
Soy beans gained steadily as light
offerings forced buyers to bid prices
up. An announced increase of 1
cent a bushel In the asking price
for government owned corn streng
thened corn futures.
Other grains developed ft firm
tone under the Influence of corn and
soy beans, but gains were restricted
by reports of ft deadlock In the
conference on the price control bill.
A modest advance in wheat fu
tures attracted light hedge selling
that knocked prices off a bit. Trad
ers said some buying of corn rep
resented spreading operations with
oats and wheat.
