PAGE TTVT3
PORTLAND, April 15. (tf Plana
are again under way to resubmit to
the membership ot the Portland
Produce Exchange the question uv
whether prices should be quoted in
even oents or In fractions. Former
opposition to the plan of quoting
fractional cento wu so great that the
proposition wu voted down. Now.
with better understanding of the
scheme, together with the fact that
most of the leading markets are
quoting In fractions, some change In
sentiment Is Indicated here.
There was no change In the mar
ket for butter during 'the day. On
the -open market cubes moved fairly
steady with the late price range.
Butterfat prices are steady.
Market for eggs continues prac
tically the same as during the last
couple of weeks. There remains some
underselling by outsiders and lor
eggs that do not come up to stand
ard grading.
Practtcally no price changes are
reflected In the market for country
killed meats. Veal of top quality Is
still quotable 9-10c, the latter being
an extreme while top hogs are 6c
extreme.
Trade in the chicken market con
tinues to mark time, and generally
without price change for the day.
Small broilers are still the hard
selling feature. Dressed stock spoils
during transit, therefore the trade
asks that no shipments be made.

Public utilities led a further re
covery In the securities market to
day. The stock market encountered

net gains of 1 to 3 points or more
were numerous at the finish. The
closing tone was steady. Transfers
approximated 1.60O.OOO shares.
The expected receivership proceed
ings against middle west utilities
apparently had cleared the atmos
phere In financial quarters consid
erably. Utility preferred stocks ana
bonds registered sharp aavances.

Under the law, the treasury in ad

evasion could demand the regular
Income tax and an additional penalty
tax on the ransom. As revealed today
by the Evening Star, however, this
technical right to commander a tax

The treasury's activities have been
