(AP) The mystery of the recent advance In the price of undergrade cube but ter on the Portland Produce Kx Vhange while top score was unchang ed, continues to attract attention In the trade here, the Journal said to day. Reports of what caused the ad vance are varied but the one chiefly told is that at a formal meeting of a brokerage firm and a distributive body. It was agreed to advance the price on undergrade lc in the hope of forcing some nearby creameries to advance their quotations to chain stores and other large buyers. Market for eggs continues to gain strength but considerable of the late advances In some markets of the country is reported due to specula tive Interest forcing fresh eggs to an artificial height to grab greater pro fits on storage. Local co-ops named an advance of lo for standards and mediums. Quite keen demand is showing for hens in the live chicken trade with the greatest call for medium and heavy weight stuff. Prices are firm to .higher. Lights are unchanged. Springer stuff is weak.

The number injured totalled. 063, 325, more than the entire popula- j tlon of the state of Oregon. There i were during that same period 835,350 I accidents. The greatest number of f people killed averaged In ages be jtween 15 and A4 years, contrary to gcucrm opinion, i.ifl numoer ox cnn dren killed In wrecks, has been low ered.

"While the tide may be slow in turning, there is no more reason for thinking that business will not Im prove than there was In 1938 for thinking that depressions were a thing of the past and that we were In an era of permanent prosperity. Public emotion swings from one ex treme to the other and there Is noth ing more volatile than the emotion of the Investing public. When rail road earnings take a sharp turn up ward, as In due time they will, rail road credit will also rise." i White House officials would say only that the president had no com ment to make upon the railroad situation. From Capitol HU1, however, there came an expression of disappointment mat xorest products had been In cluded among the products for which an increase was proposed. Senator McNary, Republican, Ore gon said: "I am sorry any Increase whatever was necessary. The decision will work a hardship on the shippers of forest products from the west who are al ready suffering. This will go farther in cutting down their market.- STORY TWO (continued from page one) ties of moonshine. Most of the evi dence was contained in pint bottles, with cobweb designs, and sold for $1.50 per pint. It is also claimed that many ot the purchasers need the money for the support of their families, and officials state the raids will be a frequent occurrence, until snow flies and the construction work la bus pended. Federal charges will probably be filed against the quartet, and pre liminary hearings held before Com missioner Chauncey Florey. - Dont forget the Big Carnival and Bazaar at the First M. E.
