the foreign exchange market. Sec
ondly, there is the unknown quantity
of what action foreign authorities
may take to defend their positions.
Nearer Gbld Standard.
The new position of the dollar
places it more closely to the old gold
standard than the present position
of sterling is, foreign exchfyige au
thorities say. The old. gold standard,
permitting the sale or purchase of
international gold at a fixed price,
places the parity of exchange in terms
of other currencies under automatic
control. For instance, if the dollar
holds well above Its new gold parity,
It will be profitable for banks to ship
gold from Par Is to Lon don . Th is
would theoretically continue un til
enough dolars were sold and francs
purchased in paying for the move
ment of gold, to lift the ratio of the
franc to the dollar so close to the
parity that the operation no longer
would be profitable. In case the dol
lar should decline below lt parity
with the franc, the federal reserve
might sell gold, for exportmntU the
reverse took place.
Problem for France.
If the flow of capital toward the
United States becomes extraordinarily
large, it may much more than absorb
the offerings in the London market,
and make such inroads into the re
serves of the Bank of Prance that the
bank would cease to sell gold freely,
which would be tantamount to quit
ting the International gold standard.
In the belief of some monetary au
thorities, that would cause such In
ternational monetary chaos that It
would quickly bring an international
stabilization agreement.
Jesse Neil of Bellview, pioneer resi
dent, who has served as Democratic
precinct committeeman from that
precinct for many years, today filed
his declaration of intentions to again
seek the office. He Is generally elect
ed without opposition. Nell is the
second candidate to file for spring
primary. The other was also a Demo.
crat Robert E. Bell, also of Bellvlew,
who seeks the sheriff's office.
Pilings for nominations for the pri
mary closes April 8.
An open debate on the Bales Tax
to be staged by Orange members, ex
clusively, will be featured at the
meeting of the Central Point Orange
tomorrow night at 8 o'clock, and the
public Is invited to come and hear
both sides of the question.
The lecture hour, scheduled for
that time, will be devoted to the
measure, the affirmative side of
which will be presented by Mrs. Alex
Sparrow and Prof. H. P. Jewett The
negative will be upheld by Victor
Bursell and Arden Tyrrell.
The regular Orange meeting will
follow the debate In order that the
people, who are not Grangers, may
come for the open session nnd then
leave for home, if they desire.
The recent tendency In local G ran
ges has been a definite move toward
bringing both sides of the tax ques
tion before the members, which is in
keeping with a previously established
custom regarding all measures. The
debate scheduled for Friday at the
Central Point Orange will probably
be followed by numerous ones In
other sections of the county.

PORTLAND, Or Feb, 1. (AP)
Butter prices were being maintained
here despite the fact that Portland
was today one of the highest mar
kets In the world. Local make was
not as heavy but out-state receipts
were heavier.
There was no ohange in the gen
eral egg market situation for the day.
Price shading was continued as It
has been for some time past, but the
chief cutting was by outsiders.
All lines of chickens were showing
& good call along the wholesale way
and at practically the same values
that have been ruling for several
weeks past. Dressed turkeys were
steady.
