Grain Prices
Downward
Chicago, Dec. 19 W) The
price trend in grains was down
ward on the board of trade to
day. Deferred deliveries lost
the most ground, but even with
them the extent of the decline
was not large.
At times December wheat and
corn moved above the previous
close on short covering. Trad
ing in all December contracts
ends tomorrow. There also was
some mill buying of wheat fol
lowing a government request for
155,000 sacks of flour.
Wheat closed 's-1 lower,
December $2.21-2.20, corn was
lower to higher, December
$1.30'A-, oats were to 1
cent lower, December 77-76,
rye closed 1 to 2 cents lower,
December $1.40, soybeans
were H4-2y. lower, December
$2.3014, and lard was 12 cents
lower to 3 cents a hundred
pounds higher, December $11.30. income from seed crops in this

Farmers Lean on West in
Planting Postwar Crops
By WILLIAM E. LOWELL
Washington, Dec. 19 W) Farmers will lean heavily on the
west in adjusting plantings to postwar demands.
Acreage controls which the agriculture department finds ne
cessary to prevent surpluses are expected to take 20,000,000
to 30,000,000 acres now in cotton, corn and wheat out of pro
duction next year.
Indications are that most of
this land will be planted to
grass or legumes, either for
stock feed or cover.
That means tons of seed will
be needed and there has been
a shortage of seed during re
cent years. Last year Canadian
imports saved the alfalfa seed
situation in this country.
In many sections of the west
in all but one of the 11 west
ern states, in fact seed has been
found a profitable crop.

partment spokesmen sets the

area at around $38,000,000 an
nually.
And that ain't hay though
some of the end-product is go
ing to be.
By way of comparison:
Livestock marketings from
the western states last year
were valued at 31,282,184,000.
Based on estimates the na
tion's farmers have given the
department, grass and legume
seed production will need to be
doubled.
And it's obvious that, for
much of the increased produc
tion the department will turn
to the western specialist.
'It s his dish," said Cy Briggs,
of the department's production-
marketing branch. "The west is
a natural producing area. Grow
ing conditions are among the
best in the country. The soil is
fertile. Moisture can be con
trolled by irrigation.
"The product is light in
weight, small in bulk, so trans
portation costs are not exces
sive, even for shipments across
the nation."
Briggs, who started with the
department as a county agent
m Oregon a good many years
ago, observed with obvious
pride that Oregon Is the pre
mier seed producing state in the
nation.
It ranks first in Alsike clov
er with 80,400 bushels last
year, in perennial rye grass,
with 7,200,000 pounds, in hairy
vetch, 12,800,000 pounds, and
common rye grass, 49,500,000
pounds. It was second for La
dino clover, Alta and Kentucky
fescue and Austrian winter
peas, fifth in crimson clover,
sixth in white clover and tenth
in red clover.
Washington is second In the
common and Willamette vet
ches, third in Austrian winter
peas and fourth in hairy vetch.
Linton Attends Show
Willamina Lynn Linton,
local chinchilla breeder, recent
ly returned from Los Angeles,
where he attended the Western
International Fur Animal show.
The show was comprised of
three types of fur-bearnig ani
mals, fox, mink and chinchillas.
The Linton chinchilla farm at
Grand Ronde entered nine chin
chillas and placed eight of the
nine, winning five ribbons and
three honorable mentions. Mr
Linton flew both ways on Unit
ed Air Lines, taking the chin
chillas with him.
Bulgers Vote on
Only Red Ticket
Sofia, Bulgaria, Dec. 19 W)
Official election returns today
showed that almost 99 percent
of the voters in Bulgaria's capi
tal here cast ballots yesterday
for the parliamentary candidates
on the only ticket offered them
that of the government's com-munist-dom
i n a t e d fatherland
front.
Over the country scattered
returns from yesterday's' parlia
mentary election indicated a
vote of 97 to 100 percent for the
Red-sponsored slate.
Thousands of voters trudged
through melting snow to polling
booths decorated with pictures
of Russia's prime minister, Jo
seph Stalin, Bulgarian flags and
the dove-of-peace emblem of
the Cominforms peace propa
ganda campaign.
At one polling place near So
fia people stomped to the nation
al dance while a Gypsy band
played wild music.
The voters included pink
cheeked girls, grizzled miners
and feeble old women.
As each voter entered the poll
ing place, his name was check
ed against a registration list. He
was handed an unsealed enve
lope which he carried into the
secret voting booth. There he
picked up his ballot, which car
ried only the fatherland front
candidates, sealed it in the en
velope, and dropped it in a clos
ed ballot box.
Stocks Advance
ilrreqularly
New York, Dec. 19 (.-F) Pri
ces were thoroughly mixed to
day in a moderately active stock
market.
Gains and losses ranged over
a one point spread with a few
of the leaders going outside
these bounds.
Trading was at the rate of
around 1,400,000 shares for the
entire day.
Allied chemical run up as
much as 4 points while Super
ior Oil of California dropped
11 points before recovering
around half of the loss later in
the session. Western Union was
active and up more than a point
at a new high for a year.
Rails kept mostly higher as
did automobiles and aircraft.
Steels were virtually unchanged
The spread of gains and losses
without any concerted action by
groups was regarded as a con
solidating movement after last
week s steady advance that put
the market on average at a 17-
month high level.
On the higher side were
Southern Pacific, Union Pacific,
Chrysler, Sears Roebuck, Unit
ed Aircraft, General Electric,
U. S. Gypsum and Sinclair Oil.
Lower were Nickel Plate,
Loew's, International Paper,
American Woolen, Dome Mines,
J. I. Case, Schenley Industries,
and Consolidated Edison.

Czechs Expel 12th
Morman Missionary
Prague, Dec. 19 (&l The
Czech government has expelled
another missionary of the Am
erican Mormon church, the 12th
worker for that group to be or
dered out in six months.
The expulsion was announced
by President Wallace Toronto of
the Mormon mission, who said
the government in each case
complained the missionaries
represented "a threat to the
peace and security of the state."
Toronto said the church had
denied the charge and one of
the missionaries had appealed
his ouster order but "an ad
verse answer is expected."

Outlook for Economy in N.W.
In 1950 'Close of 1949 Level'
Seattle, Dec. 19 W) The concensus of contributors to the De
cember issue of the Pacific Northwest Industry is that the
region's economy for 1950 "should remain close to the 1949
level."
The publication is issued by the bureau of business research
at the university oi washing-
ton.
The economic reports and fore
casts cover Washington. Oregon,
Idaho, British Columbia and
Western Montana. They were by
five campus economists, eight
Chamber of Commerce represen
tatives and one editor.
In sumarizing their forecasts
for a prosperous 1950, tempered
by some uneasiness and unfav
orable aspects, editor Charles J.
Miller wrote:
"The reasoning behind this
composite conclusion is sound:
Construction is expected to be
maintained at high levels, as are
production of lumber and alu-mium;
Farm income will be pro
tected by the federal govern
ment:
Veterans will receive sub
stantial cash payments in the
form of insurance premium re
funds and bonuses;
The area's income in 1948
was higher than for any previ
ous year;
"Our population growth con
tinues. "Nationally and locally we
have declined from that abnor
mally high point of business
activity made possible by pent
up demand to a more normal and
wholsome replacement demand
basis.
"The new level, while not as
profitable as the peak, is a safe,
and for most segments of our
economy an extremely profit
able level.
"But this encouraging area
forecast is not one of unrestrain
ed optimism. Underlying it is a
feeling of uncertainty and even
of uneasiness.
"One contributor (E. M. Weth
erell of the Tacoma Chamber of
Commerce) wrote that the busi
ness leaders in his area view
1950 with a feeling of 'temp
ered optimism." the tempering
factors obviously are related to
the problems of the areas and
the nation and to what is per-
t h e greatest potential
danger of all: That consumers
will stop buying or industry and
business will retrench on plans
for expansion, research and ag
gressive promotion because of
over-vivid imaginations stimu
lated by timidity. Both groups
have money to spend.
"Three new area problems ap.
peared in 1949 (1) A modest
upturn in unemployment: (2)
Devaluation of currency by some
30 nations; and (3) Area defense
and decentralization of defense
industries.
"The former is not yet of con
cern but the latter two have
caused some serious maladjust
ments, with the longer-term ef
fects not clearly foreseeable.
"Prices of farm products con
tinue downward, but federal
money will prevent hardship in
that area.
"The power shortage remains
critical and prevents unlimited
industrial expansion."
He cited the steadily falling
Boeing Aaircraft payroll as a
major problem in the Seattle
area, but expressed the opinion
that for the region "national
problems loom more Important"
than local ones.

Women in Some Parts of N.Y.
Return to Pioneer Water Days
By BARBARA BUNDSCHU
Somers, N. Y., Dec. 19 U.R) Residents of this tiny waterless
town were sneering at New York's bathless-shaveless Friday.
"I haven't had a bath since August," said Mrs. Anna Fuchs,
Somers township tax receiver.
Many of her neighbors haven't either. They look just as
clean as anybody. But they'J'
aren't happy about it.
The township, 30 miles north
of New York City, is composed
of small farms, small villages
and more summer than year-
round residences. The long
drought which imperils New
York City's water system has
dried up most of their shallow
wells and many of their springs.
An estimated 10 to 25 percent
of the town's 3,500 persons are
hauling water from ponds, cart
ing it from luckier neighbors
with deep, artesian wells put
ting out every vessel they own
to catch the rain, and melting it
down from ice every morning to
brush their teeth.
Housewives have stopped all
the water cleaning they can.
They're still scrubbing kitchen
floors, but with a basin of water
first used for a sponge bath.
They're skipping their afternoon
cups of coffee or tea. They're
flushing the toilets as infre
quently as possible with water
that's already done duty on dirty
children, dirty clothes and dirty
dishes.
When they wash their hair,
they leave the soap in it.
They're planning their menus
for dishes that don't need water.
Soups have vanished from the
table. So have stews. Most
housewives have resorted entire
ly to frozen vegetables these
don't need to be washed before
cooking. The extra time it takes
from their days is almost incal
culable.
Mr. and Mrs. Shirley Taylor,
with five little girls under 10,
haul water for five cows and 300
chickens as well as themselves
and cart the family 20 miles in
their "old Jalopy" every week
end for baths at her family's
home in Ossining.
Taylor, a highway mainte
nance man, has to cart the water
from a neighbor's pond after
work each evening. Sometimes
it takes three trips. Drinking
water is carted from their near
est neighbor, Town Supervisor
Patrick V. Ryan, whose artesian
well is still holding up for his
own and three other families.
The Taylors have been water
less since last July.
"I get so mad I could scream
sometimes," snid pretty, slight,
28-year-old Mrs. Taylor. "I'd
like to offer you a cup of coffee,
but I actually don't have a cup
of water in the house today."
