Wheat Stages Late Rally Chicago, Aug. 20 U.R Wheat and corn futures staged a late rally today to close firm after session of declining prices prompted by Secretary of Agri culture Wickard's statements fa voring the repeal of 110 per cent parity.

Spreading operations, with September wheat bought and December sold at 2 cents dif ference, became the main fea ture of late trading after initial selling depressed the market.

Rye futures backed down with wheat. Soybeans held around steady in moderate deal ings. Grain futures moved lower on other markets. Standards for Spanish Onions Standards for Spanish type onions have been adopted by the state department of agriculture as result of a recent hearing in Ontario, where growers request ed that separate grades be est ablish for this type onion. These ' standards are in addition to the onion standards already in ef fect and apply only to the Span ish type. Growers of Spanish type on ions may grade either under the new. standards for this type or under the U. S. standards for northern grown onions or the regular Oregon standards for on ions, Minimum size of onions un der the Oregon standard grade set up for Spanish type is I fa inches in diameter. Not more than 5 per cent, by weight, of the onions in any container may be below the grade requirement and not more than 2 per cent of this tolerance will bo allowed for onions affected by decay.

Fruit Trees Need Spray Borer Control Dallas The last of August and the first of September is the most effective time to treat peach and prune trees for the control of root borers. Material commonly used, chemically known as paradichlorobenzene is fortunately available this year, at only slightly increased prices. An ounce is used for ordinary trees six years old or older. Three-fourths of an ounce is recommended for trees four to five years old and one-half ounce for trees from one to three years old. This material is best used when the soil temperature is 60 degrees or above. It can be in jurious to young trees less than four years old if not properly used. The mounds of earth piled on top of the poison about the trees should be torn down on the young trees after the treat ment has been made for four to six weeks- It is usually best, to treat a whole orchard or group of orch ards in the same neighborhood at the same time. When this is done and the treatment given for two consecutive years, it might be unnecessary to treat again for a considerable period of time. When only part of an orchard is treated the adults of this -insect are free to migrate into the treated sections the coming year and re-infest the treated trees. Complete Information of the method of treatment can be ob tained at the office of W, C Loth, county agent. Station cir cular 109 on Control of West ern Peach and Prune Root borer, is available on request. Plane Runway Paving Finished With paving operations com pletod, except for shaping the gutters, on the 1000-foot exten sion to the northwest-southeast runway at the Salem airport, the full 5000-foot runway was open ed to use last night. The paving contractor, War- rent Northwest company, has completed surfacing of the south 3700 feet of the 5600-foot north- south runway and expects to complete the job sometime next week. Because of the scarcity of con duit and other materials, a port able system for lighting the run ways will be installed. Under the direction of the U. S. army engineers, work on the barracks, slope, warehouses, administration building and oth er installations for the air corps support command and pursuit base is progressing according to schedule. No date has been announced for occupation of the base by the air corps. Salem Markets Compiled from reports of Sa lem dealers, for tho guidance of Capital Journal readers. (Revised daily).

Onion Estimates Drop 60 Per Cent An onion crop of 110 per cent of normal which was estimated the first of July, has decreased until it is but 80 per cent today, Ronald Jones, president of the Labish Growers' association, stat ed today. He blamed tho in roads of thrlp and mildew as res ponsible for the shrinkage In the prospective crop. In addition to a decrease in production, onion growers face the prospect of hav ing much less No. 1 quality, since the size of the vegetable has been materially affected. Wool Production Shows Decrease An estimated 12,023,000 pounds of wool, a drop of eight per cent from the 1941 figure, was shorn in Oregon this year, a preliminary report Issued by the U. S. department of agricul ture said today. A decline in the number of sheep was given as the primary reason for the drop, the report said, New Battle On Farm Prices Washington, Aug. 20 VP) A new battle over farm prices ap peared to be in the making today following an appeal by Secre tary of Agriculture Wickard for an amendment to the price con trol law to permit lower ceilings on agricultural products. Wickard, reversing his previ ous position, urged farmers in a radio address last night to fore go a provision in the price law prohibiting ceilings of less than 110 per cent of parity. (Parity prices are designed to give farm products purchasing power equi valent to that of a base period, usually 1909-14). The secretary's new stand was quickly challenged by Chairman Fulmer (D., S.C.) of the house agriculture committee, who said "Friends of the farmers will oppose any such change in the price law. Mr. Wickard and Mr. Henderson (price administrator Leon Henderson) would do far mers, consumers and the nation a real service if they would do something about cutting down on the margins and profits that middlemen and others make on farm products." In Chicago, Earl C. Smith, vice president of the American Farm Bureau federation, expressed doubt a plan for applying price ceilings to livestock could be devised. It would require, he said, an army of untrained ap praisers and administrators and "would bring chaos" t.n the live stock producing and feeding in dustry. 2 More Buses For Bean Pickers Heeding the increased demand for harvest workers, the local office of the U. S. employment service plans to operate two ad ditional buses from headquart ers at Ferry and South Cottage streets beginning Friday fore noon. The two buses will ac commodate 125 workers who will be taken to the bean fields, W. H. Baillie, manager of the employment service, following a tour of'inspection of the Inde pendence and north Marion county sections yesterday, re ports that the producers of hops are fairly well supplied with pickers. However, there is a shortage of field hands, due principally to the higher price being paid those who pick the hops. Some producers report that men who have hired out on a daily wage as field hands have joined the ranks of the pickers because the "kids are making more than we are. Baillie reported an instance where a man and wife earned $18 in a single day picking hops while another woman collected $7.20 even though she quit the field at 3 o'clock. Nearer Portland hop produc ers are still in need of help, since the defense industries have at tracted many workers who or dinarily go to the harvest fields. Alaska Salmon Pack Small Seattle, Aug. 20 JPI The fe deral fishery industries office here today announced the Alas ka salmon pack, as of August 8, aggregated 2,796,279 standard cases, compared with 4,460,951 for a comparable, but earlier, date Inst year. It is nearly 789, 000 cases short of the compara tive figures for 1940, previously the smallest in the past six years. The 1942 figures are final for Bristol Bay (there were no op erations this season on the north side of the Alaska peninsula and the Egekik area) and this gave the normally important western Alaska cannery nrea n final to tal of but 467,192 cases; was final for Copper river, and final for the southside Alaska penin sula and Icy Strait areas of cen tral Alaska (save for one can nery In each) and was final for southeastern Alaska's "western area" save for one cannery, The southeastern Alaska total as of August 8 was 830,617 cases against 2,153,181 for last year's comparative date. The central Alaska pack to August 8 was 1,498,470 cases compared with 1,643,068 cases on a comparable date last year. 1 No Favoritism Shown Traffic Violators Variation of bail and fines levied in violations of the basic speed law, above 30 miles an hour under usual circumstances, has perplexed many people and the general belief that local vio lators are "given a break" over out-of-towners is erroneous. Motorists are seldom arrested under 35 miles an hour, though this is determined by circum stances, such as careless driving In congestion or where there are crowds on the street. All bail Is based upon the minimum amount that would be given as a fine in case of conviction. Lo cal motorists are cited because they can be reached by an of ficer if they do not appear in court in answer to a summons. while out-of-town motorists are required to post bail to obtain their release, experience teach ing that seldom if ever do these appear later in court.

Dairies Hit by Labor Shortage Portland, Aug. 20 fu.fi A statement absolving the office of price administration of blame for recent shortages, of milk throughout Oregon was before producers today. Issued by the state OPA of fice, the statement said the pres ent shortage was due largely to scarcity of labor and it was not essentially a price problem, and therefore could not fairly be referred to the OPA. The problem cannot be solved by price increase, at least not without seriously curtailing con sumption of milk, the statement said. It said the matter had been forwarded to Washington, D.C., for consideration by the war man-power commission. Before any changes in ceiling prices es tablished by OPA for fluid milk can be made, a ruling by the commission must be forthcom ing, the statement contended. In the meantime, the state ment urged communities to "try to help themselves." It suggest ed importation of dairy labor from other states, training cours es for women, elimination of un essential production costs and distribution services. New Exclusion Order by Army San Francisco, Aug. 20 (U.R) The fourth army and western defense command today an nounced a new exclusion order under which anyone, including native Americans, can be moved from the Pacific coast if found to be "dangerous or potentially dangerous." Lieut. Gen. John L. DeWitt said a board of army officers would hear every case and that persons excluded would be giv en time to care for their person al and business matters. DeWitt did not define the bas is for finding a person liable to exclusion, saying that the board would base its decision on "evi dence submitted to it." If ex cluded, an Individual would be given assistance In relocating in a non-military area. "This procedure," DeWitt said, "is another important step in providing proper protection for the military security of the Pacific frontier. "The evacuation of all per sons of Japanese ancestry from the Pacific coast has been ac complished. No further collec tive evacuation is contemplated. "The new procedure is sup plemental to the Japanese evac uation program and will deal with dangerous or potentially dangerous persons entirely on an individual basis and without ne cessity for mass action."

New Plastic to Replace Rubber Wilmington, Wei., Aug. 20 VP) The Hercules Powder Co., an nounced today that it was pro ducing a new plastic which could replace rubber in hundreds of everyday articles. Base for the new plastic is ethyl cellulose, manufactured from cotton linters or wood pulp, common salt and alcohol from natural gas or from fer mented farm products. Ethyl cellulose has been in production for some time at the company's chemical cotton plant at Hopewell, Va. L. N. Bent, vice-president, said the new plastics were not now suitable for tires or inner tubes because they were infer ior to natural rubber in bounce or resilency. He said they would tear more readily than rubber and were not as elastic. Ethyl cellulose, however, could be made flameproof, Bent said, and is flexible at tempera tures of 70 degrees below zero, which would enable it to be used for electrical insulation in mo tors of high-altitude bombing planes. Among articles which the new soft material could be used as a rubber substitute were hospital sheeting, garden hose, rubber gloves, washers, footwear, rain coats, golf balls and baby pants. Resistant to war gases, it could be used for gas masks, the an nouncement said.

MONOUHUprtUCI Allied Airmen Given Credit for Raid's Success (Continued from page 1) As it grew light we discover ed scores of other ships des troyers, motor gunboats, lighters, assault craft and chausseurs of the Fighting French navy all converging on Dieppe. One 24-year-old sub-lieutenant whistled softly at the sight and said: "What's that line in Shakes- , peare about 'Gentlemen of Eng land now abed?' They ought to see this. It makes you proud." Commandos Land The first commandos landed as we neared the French coast RAF bombers had sneaked across the channel to hammer German gun positions. Ahead anti-aircraft fire spurted in foun tains of red tracer bullets. Across the water we heard the rumbling crump, crump of big bombs. "The well-dressed man will wear a tin hat from this point," the sub-lieutenant said. As the light brightened we saw, six Spitfires flying high over head. We were still admiring them when there was a roar of planes to port and two Focke- . Wulfs attacked our convoy. Barrage of Guns They swept over us with ev ery gun firing, and ours answer ing theirs. One climbed out of the barrage, a second waver ed and slid into the sea. "Let's go and see the fun,1 said the captain after the tank transports had run in to land ings. We steamed through the smoke and in the early sunlight saw the burning houses of Dieppe and heard the rattle of rifle fire and the chatter of machine-guns.
