Newspaper Page TextTen Stock Trading Falls Off But Prices Firm New York, July 20 OI.P Trad Ing fell off sharply on the stock market today as traders awaited new developments on the admin istration's inflation policy. Prices were firm late in the day after early irregularity. They dipped below the nest, however, when the house of rep resentatives rejected the ways and means committee proposal to set a 40 per cent normal and surtax rate, against the 45 per cent rate In the committee's bill. The house' also voted to Increase the excess profits tax from 87 lis per cent to 90 per cent. Averages of leading groups had small net gains because most top issues were higher. A few special stocks eased as much as a point or so. A few showed ad vances ranging to more than 4 points. Steel Issues opened lower, ral lied and turned irregular. Beth lehem had a small net loss and U. S. Steel issues wore higher. Motors were firm In late deal ings. Rails firmed and enough utilities rose to send the average up slightly. Coppers displayed a better tone late In the day. A better tone was noted In mercantile shares. Mail order shares were firm. Goodyear preferred equaled its high at 82 up 1. Montcsanto rose more than a point, while Dow Chemical lost more than a point. Wider movers included May tag company first preferred at 79 Vi up 4; Public Service 7 per cent preferred 91 up 4'A; and General Steel Castings preferred 63 up l'A. Fourth Storage Shed Erected St. Paul, July 20 A fourth storage shed with 700-ton capa city, a water reservoir for fire protection and women's quarters preparatory to hiring of women for the first time to replace men leaving for military service or war Industries, are being con structed at the St. Paul Flax Growers' plant here. Manager Pete Luthl made known the expansion work Sat urday. The co-operative, which was organized early last year and put up a $50,000 plant in time to handle a 2,400-lon crop, will harvest 1,000 acres in flax this year, Luthl stated, Recent rains have caused con siderable damage, as this year's heavy growth has "lodged" bad ly, he pointed out. Pulling is expected to start about July 27. A crew of 45 men Is continu ing processing of last year's big yield, and about 300 tons re main to be deseeded. A new tow machine invented by W. M, Hurst, Corvallis, of the United States department of agricul ture, is being tried out, and a new deseeder is being built at Sllverton for t he plant here, Luthl said. Present output of tow is going to the Salem mills. Salem Markets Compiled from reports nf 8a lcm dealers, (or tho guidance of Capital Journal readers, (Revised dally).

Anti-aircraft, which is not par ticularly damaging to most fast combat planes, is brutally pun ishing to ships' as large and slow as the Catalinas, The Japs showed signs of dis couragement and their ships be gan to get under way, A Cat delivered its load on the moving ships and flew on out to Attu, the last island of the interconti nental stepping stones. Construction Work By night the bombers noted evidence the Japs planned a per manent occupation. Attu show ed signs of construction work and shore-based Nakajima 97 fighters rose from Kiska, to meet the American craft. The harbor was empty of ships that night, but next day they came back, appearing in increasing numbers throughout the daylight hours. By night Kiska's harbor held five heavy cruisers, two light cruisers, ten destroyers, two submarines, nine cargo and transport vessels, and a dozen Kawanishi flying boats, seaplane and land-based observation and fighter aircraft haunted the murky sky. Other ships- were sighted arriving from the south. More Warships Hit The fog closed in tight and stayed most of the day and bombers had to drop their loads through mist. When the mist rolled back two Catajinas drop ped down to a thousand feet and dumped a pair of heavy bombs each on a destroyer and light cruiser. All were punishing near misses. Another Liberator was lost during the day, but the remaind er made direct hits on two cruis ers and a destroyer and left them burning. A torpedo carrying Catalina varied its routine by attacking a heavy cruiser standing up to Kiska from the south. The tor pedo went into the water and the peppered plane zoomed out as the cruiser turned to avoid attack. The ship didn't make it for suddenly a wall of water skyrocketed along her side and she lurched suddenly in her course. It was a clean hit. Whether she sank is a matter for historians to record. The plane didn't wait to see. Carrier Zeros Seen The first bombing flights yes terday found something new in the way of trouble. Nobody had seen the Jap carriers for several days but now carrier Zeros were working over the island. It seemed to indicate the carriers' close proximity but no contact was made during the day. While American bombers kept up their round trip destruction the Japs made a few tentative stabs eastward. Observation planes scouted along the islands as far as Umnak, just east of Dutch Harbor. Several attacks on Kiska were driven off by Zeros but others ' got through. Army bombers reported two direct hits on a heavy cruiser. The fight goes on through the gloom of night and the practic ally identical gloom of day. No battle ever fought witnessed con ditions so viciously unfriendly to both sides.

Jap Bombs That Missed Their Mark When Jap bombers attacked Dutch Harbor, U. S. naval base In Alaska, they were met with anti-aircraft fire that kept many of their bombs falling wide of the mark. These geysers represent bombs falling wide of the mark, and harmlessly in the harbor. The ship in the background behind the geyser at the left staved off attack with continued machine gun fire. U. S.

Turret British Capture 6,000 Prisoners In Desert Battle (Continued from page 1) impeded by sandstorms, they maintained all their positions on the dominant ridge of the northern and central areas and in the southern dust bowl. In one of the heaviest raids of the campaign, fighter-bombers and light bombers, escorted by fighters, fought their way through the swirling dust clouds yesterday to raid an enemy oc cupied airdrome west of the battle line, to destroy or dam age many grounded planes and shoot down five enemy planes which were about to land. Axis Tanks Hit Other planes scored direct hits on six enemy tanks in a raid in the southern area and started fires. Heavy bombers, which may have included American army air corps planes, made a day light attack on the axis base at Tobruk, a communique of the middle eastern command and the royal air force said. One allied plane was missing from all operations. In the north, the Australians have consolidated newly won positions on the Makhkhad ridge about four and one-half miles irom the coast between El Ala mein and the Hill of Jesus, the Tel El Eisa. In the center, Indian troops holding Ruweisat ridge, made a sudden advance in a dusk at tack, gained new ground and held it against an enemy counter-attack supported by a few tanks. Regulation Cuts Food Prices Washington, July 20 (Pi The cost of many foods not under price control rose sharply be tween mid-May and mid-June while those under regulation de clined slightly, the bureau of labor statistics reported today. Prices of foods not under the general price ceiling advanced an average of 4.8 per cent and controlled food prices declined an average of 1.3 per cent. The bureau estimated that, de spite the administration's efforts to check the rising cost of living, food bills for city families of moderate income rose 1.3 per cent between May 12 and June 16. This was about the same rate of increase which prevailed during the 14 months prior to the start of price regulation May 18. Twenty of the 65 foods priced in retail stores went up, 28 were lower and 17 were unchanged. Price regulation docs not affect 24 of the foods priced, represent ing more than 40 per cent of the average food budget of wage earners and lower-salary work ers. The price rises were led by fresh fruits and vegetables, lamb and poultry, none of which is subject to price control. Apples advanced 25 per cent, cabbage 15 per cent, lamb 10 per cent and roasting chickens 5 per cent. A drop in prices was reported for fats and oils, beverages, pork and dairy products, all but the latter being under price regula tions. The index of food costs June 16 was 123.2 per cent of the 1935-39 average, 4 per cent above the March 17 level and 16 per cent higher than a year ago. Recession in Grain Prices Chicago, July 20 (U.R) Wheat futures staged a late rally to close irregularly higher today, after reports of an impending conference between the presi dent and congressional leaders on anti-inflation legislation caused a recession in the grain. Other futures closed firm. Wheat closed around the day's highs Ve to cent a bushel higher, corn also closed on the tops to higher, oats to lVs higher, rye up Vz to , and soybeans up Va to Continual a n t i - inflationary talk lowered prospects on pass age of 100 per cent of parity loan provision now before the house. Hedge sales from time to time eased wheat futures which met some support on slight declines. Local demand and scattered buying from cash interests gave a steady to firm tone to corn futures. Many traders believed that recent farm weather had done much to improve this year's crop. Light trading caused sluggish price movements in the rye and oat pits. Local traders and commission houses acted on both sides of the markets. Soy bean trade was full and slightly easier. $380 a Ton Paid For Tuna at Astoria Astoria, Ore., July 20 (Pi Tuna prices reached a new high of $380 a ton on the Astoria fishermen's exchange Saturday. The price was $30 above the season's opening offer of Fri day and $240 higher than last year's opening price. Previous peak was last year's $357.50.
