CALLED MYSTERY
PORTLAND TRADE
PORTLAND, Oie., Oct. 21. (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.
There Is a very good and unfilled
call for dressed young torn turkeys
but old hens and old toms are In
clined to show more or less dullness
and even weakness. The country ap
pears willing to sell.

STORY ONE
(continued from page one)
The housewife's Job Is to supply the
machine with water and soap and
lift the clothes In and out
Water In the kitchen tap is used
as power for an egg, mayonalse or
whipped cream beater. The con
traption is attached to the tap by
means of a hose.
When & baby cries for a 2:00
o'clock morning feeding there Is an
electric milk warmer that can be
kept by the mother's bedside and
save a trip to the kitchen to warm
the infant's bottle. Also there is
an electric egg cooker that turns
out one-minute eggs with one tea
spoonful of water and two-minute
egg with two teaspoonsful. It bolls
them hard with but little more
water.
The great menace now realised by
the United States In the form of
automobile accidents was emphasized
today noon by Chas. Ray, local Insur
ance man. In an address before the
Lions club at the regular luncheon
at the Hotel Holland. Mr. Ray pre
sented a map prepared by the na
tional Insurance company he repre
sents, showing that 83.500 people
were killed In the United States in
auto accidents In 1030.
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. During the past 18 months' period
there were 60,100 persons killed in
auto accidents. -The greatest number
of these accidents resulted from con
tested right of ways. Only one-fifth
of the accident resulted from speed
ing. The most dangerous hour of the
day, according to the accident fig
ures, Is between daylight and dark,
Drecedlne the dinner hour. wrmn

and not alert of mind. Sunday Is
the day on which most accidents oc
cur and Saturday comes next. The
lowest fatality rate Is recorded for
Tuesday.
Following Mr. Ray's talk, all mem
bers of the Lions club at the request
of Traffic Officer Prescott promised
to exercise great care during the
coming winter to avoid accidents.
Miss Jane Goude. special represen
tative of the Civic Music association
in this city for organization of the
local branch, extended the member
ship Invitation to all Lions. She
urged them if not contacted by one
of the local workers to come to the
chamber of commerce headquarters
to join, assuring them that the con
certs to be brought here this winter
wtll offer them a special treat in
music.

proves just as they have In the past.
"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.-

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.

HE discovered some time ago
that kitchen work is what you

and endless hours of hard work to
prepare the family meals, is the
greatest enemy to beauty, health and

all that. Now she accomplishes won
