Saturday, August 22, 1942 Ten The Capital Journal, Salem,' Oregon Stock Market Remains Firm In Dull Session New York, Aug. 22 U- Heavy trading in a few low priced issues today featured an otherwise dull but firm stock market. Nash-Kelvlnator, which ap peared on blocks ranging to 2, 000 shares, was he feature of ac tivity. It equaled its high at 6, the previous close. Studebaker had a fair-sized turnover and gained slightly. Chrysler was up slightly and General Motors was easier. . Sparks Wlthington, well up on the active list, made a new high at 2 up point. Steel and railroad shares were dull. A new high was made by Texas & Pacific while Southern Pacific equaled Its high. U. S. Rubber preferred sold at 88 up IK and a new high. Goodyear made a small advance to a new top, while Goodrich equalled its 1942 high. Standard Oil of California and Amerada made new highs for the year. The American & Foreign Power prcferreds con tinued their daily practice of setting new highs in the utilities. Glen Alden Coal was active on the curb when directors rais ed the dividend from 30 cents to ' SO cents a share. " Sales on the Stock Exchange 'were 18,410 shares, compared with 126,900 a week ago. Curb sales were 25,695 shares against 26,925 a week earlier. Dow-Jones preliminary clos ing averages were: Industrial, 107.30, up 0.23; rail, 27.00, off -0.01; utility, 11.75, up 0.01; and 65 stocks, 36.05, up 0.05. Corn Futures Lead Market Chicago, Aug. 22 (U.Rl Corn .futures today led a weak grain market by dropping more than a cent a bushel as the result of long liquidation and selling by cash interests. Corn closed around the day's lows with net losses of 1 'A to 1 cents a bushel. Wheat was off to Hi, oats off M to , rye off to , and soybeans un changed to off Vi . Long liquidation, particularly heavy in the September contract, and lack of buying interest press ed corn to new seasonal lows. Reports that an embargo was to be established to halt the record run of barley to Minneapolis had a bearish effect. A house with cash connections provided moderate support to December corn on the decline, while other interests sold Sep tember corn and bought Decem ber at 2 cents difference. Wheat futures lost ground in sympathy with corn. Limited buying power and moderate sell ing were sufficient to depress the market by major rations in a very small trade. The Increasing movement of spring wheat to Chicago had a bearish effect, in that traders were led to believe that yester day's arrival of a large percent age of No. 1 northern wheat was for commercial account Instead of the government's wheat-for-feed distribution. Hopes Revived for Haugland's Safety Melbourne, Aug. 22 (IP) Hope for the safety of Vern Haugland, Associated Press war correspon dent who has been missing since August 7, has been revived with the arrival at Port Moresby, New Guinea, of three crewmen from he plane In which he had traveled. The men said that Haugland and others In the plane succeed ed In balling out before It crash ed but that the parachuting men were separated during the des cent and landed over n hrnnrl area. The plane had been caught in a storm In a flight from Townsvllle, Australia. The first crewman to reach safety arrived at Port Moresby on August 17. Relief parties sent out from that allied base found the two others and a search for Hnuglnnd and two others is continuing. The New Guinea hinterland is among the wildest spots on earth but records show that airmen and others lost In the mountain ous jungles have returned In rl. vlllzation as long as 45 days aiier Becoming lost.

The commander was Lieut. Col, Ev ans F. Carlson, while Command er John W. Haines, U.S.N., di rected the entire operation, which was covered by the fleet units. Admiral Nimilz said the mar ines made a successful landing and accomplished their objective of destroying seaplane installa tions. Following the action, the force withdrew, the admiral said, giving a different version than the Tokyo radio which broadcast that a landing force of about 200 Ameicans "had been repulsed." Landing in Makin "Known enemy losses inflict ed by the marines are at least 80 Japanese killed, radio install ations and stores destroyed and one large and one small seaplane destroyed on the water," the communique said. Losses were suffered by the enemy in heavy bombing attacks dealt by their own confused air craft which arrived from other bases to assist their beleaguered countrymen. "Ships of our expedition gun ned and sank one small trans port and one gunboat," the com munique said. "Considering the nature of this operation our forces suffered only moderate losses." Neither Roosevelt nor either of the other two officers in charge of the raid was on the casualty list, Admiral Nimitz said. Surprise Raid The surprise raid indicated that American forces are seek ing out Jap bases and strong points on some of the hundreds of enemy-held islands in the south Pacific area, for a contin uous "stepping stone" offensive against the Japanese, Makin island is the most nor therly island of the British-owned Gilbert group, and is one of the bases attacked last January when an American naval task force struck in the Gilbert and Marshall islands. , Three hundred miles north of Makin lies the Japanese base at Jaluit on the Marshall islands, Japanese-owned. Jaliut and the further north Japanese bases of Taroa and Wotje in the Marsh alls, also were hammered in the January raid. Timpr Bombing , Continuing their pounding air tactics in the far southern Paci fic front, allied planes under General Douglas MacArthur's command flew from their Aus tralian bases to bomb Maobisse in Portuguese Timor, for the second successive day.

OCX - 1 E5 In Naming Three of the 50 Victory Jersey bulls, being given away at Salem, August 22 by breeders of purebred Jerseys, George Horning,. Jr., Shervood, donor of the three, ap propriately named them in the words of Caesar: "Vini, Vidi, Victi." Translated it means, "I came, I saw, I conquered." Daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Horning, Priscilla (left1 and Pa tricia, salute the dairy industry in its effort toward increased efficiency and greater war-time production, 50 Registered Jersey Bulls Given Dairymen Fifty registered bulls from some of the finest Jersey dairy stock in the state, are being given away at the state fair grounds this afternoon under the auspices of the American Jersey Cattle club and the Oregon Jersey Cat- tie club, part of a nation-wide movement to build up Jersey herds and with the eventual aim of stimulating milk production to a new all time high in a pe riod when such production counts as it never has before in the nation's history. Fortunate recipients of the 50 bulls are dairymen from over the state carefully selected by a committee from the Ore gon Jersey Cattle club on a basis of several requirements. The foremost of these is that the dairyman who receives one of the bulls must have no regis- Take All Sugar You Are Entitled to Portland, Aug. 22 (IP) For their own protection, grocers should insist that purchasers take all the sugar provided by ration certificates. The state OPA office said yes terday it has received reports that some grocers are permitting customers to buy a partial ration but save certificates until the remainder is purchased. . But such customers may buy the remainder elsewhere leav ing the grocer without a certifi cate which he must turn in be fore he can replenish his stock, OPA warned. Further 10 Percent Cut in Coffee Washington, Aug. 22 (IP) The war production board today or dered a further 10 per cent re duction in the amount of coffee available to American consum ers, effective September 1. The reduction, representing a cut of about 15,000,000 pounds a month, "is necessary because of the shipping situation," WPB said. Civilian coffee consumption under the order will be held to about 110,000,000 pounds a month, compared ' with normal unrestricted consumption of ab out 147,000,000 pounds. The coffee quota for wholesal ers, retailers and other whole sale receivers will be reduced from 75 per cent to 65 per cent of the average monthly amount of coffee delivered during the corresponding quarter of 1941 This quota will be effective dur ing September and each subse quent month until revised. The order specifically cuts the quotas for wholesalers, retailers and other wholesale receivers to 65 per. cent of the average de llvered to them monthly during the third quota of 1941 July August and September, They now receive 75 per cent of that amount. Officials said that the reduc tion would amount to approxi mately 15,000,000 pounds monthly and was made neces sary because of the shipping sit uation, Slight Decrease in Milk Prices Portland, Ore., Aug. 22 J.B Tho OPA today ordered slight decrease In Portland milk prltes to confirm with the price celling put in effect August 7.

'(?$. v'. tered cattle in his herd but his herd must be made up of only grade cattle. Other qualifica tions to be recipient of one of the bulls dealt with various items of adaptability of his herd to the greatest development by the addition of such an animal, Bulls Donated Also some stringent require ments were made as to the bulls themselves. They were all do nated by Oregon dairymen from top notch herds and no bull would pass the test unless its mother produced 450 pounds or over during the year. None of the bulls are less than eight months old. The dairyman in accepting one of the animals is required to keep it through two crops of calves and then before he can dispose of it he must give the original donor the first chance to retrieve it for his own herd. Governor Charles A. Sprague was named to present the bulls to the fortunate 50 dairymen.

McNutt announced today a program designed to keep min ers of metals vitally needed for war production on their jobs by making the appeal of the jobs 'more nearly comparable with those in other war industries." He said the program would also include steps to recruit and train more miners through the U. S. employment service facili ties and to prevent contractors from "pirating" metals miners for jobs in war plants. McNutt reported these actions to make metal miner jobs more attractive: 1. The war labor board, now considering the question of in creased wages for mine work ers, has made arrangements for 'early and combined action on the large number of non-ferrous mine cases now before it and for retroactive payments of any wage increase which may re sult." 2. The selective service sys tem is advising its local boards to consider occupational defer ments for mine workers. 3. Tire rationing boards have been asked to give special con sideration to transportation re quirements by mine workers be tween their homes and jobs.

That will be the first matter to come before the committee Monday when it begins two weeks executive consideration of the measure. As it passed the house, the bill called for $6,271,000,000 more taxes over a full year's operation, includ ing about $2,900,000,000 more from Individual income taxpay ers. George implied to newspaper men that individuals might be asked for even large contribu tions when he declared that 'from the standpoint of the treasury, this is the harvest time, and later on with declining in comes it will be too late." 'If we are serious about pay ing for this war, and checking the rising living costs due ,to Inflation, now is the time for us to act," he said. George said there was a pos sibility that the committee might approve some modification of the "pay as you go" income tax collection plan advanced by Beardsley Ruml, chairman of the New York federal reserve bank. The plan could best be coupled with collection of taxes at the source, he said.
