TOP RESALE VALUE
PORTLAND, Ore., March IS. (AP)
Once again the price on extras waa
attacked during the produce exchange
session with a resulting loss of 3c
a pound which brings this quotation
to lb., exactly the same as
standards and prime firsts. Firsts
are unchanged at 22'c. Butterfat
was unchanged generally.
Poor eggs were finding all aorta
of prices on the local market. Re
Jecta from storage were chiefly of
fered at the moment on the bargain
counter Inasmuch as real quality was
finding bids higher than resale value.
Without lowering the resale price
on such offerings, live light hen
values were generally down to 10-llc
lb., the former being paid by cash
buyers for direct shipment and the
cent additional to speculators.
Easy prices were suggested for
country killed spring lambs as a re
sult of slashing of values on live
stuff. Nomina price now 25c lb. for
best country killed. Old lambs and
mutton show steady to strong tone.
With a small run shown for the
week to date, the market for country
killcj calves was cleaned up. Hogs
were steady with beef in fair demand
and bulls firm.
Asparagus was firmer with cool
weather in the south.
Spinach was wenker to lower with
more local stuff offered.
Potato market remained quiet, ln
nctlve in the country.
Onion demand was fairly active at
the source, slow here.
New potatoes were generally steady.

Dullness ruled In the stock market
today and, aside from improvement
in the rails and a few specialties,
prices moved hesitantly. There was
little public participation and the
so-called professionals displayed little
enthusiasm for either side of the ar

irregular. Transfers approximated 1,

A verbal panorama of Old Mexico,
with all her color and romance, was
unfolded before the members of the
Medford Rotary club today by Lelth
Abbott, advertising agent for the
Southern company in Portland. Mr.
Abbott, who addressed the Rotarlans
In the basement banquet hall of the
Hotel Medford. delighted his listen
ers with a description of his Inter
esting visit through the southern re
public, his personal observations of
habits and customs of tthe Mexicans
and thrilling account of a Mexico
City bull fight.
"A visit to Old Mexico has all the
color and thrill of a Journey to Eu
rope, Asia or the South Seas," Mr.
Abbott told the members of the Rotary-club.
"Nowhere is there to be
found a happier, more hospitable or
picturesque people. Two-Lhirds of
the population Is made up of Indians
who seem to be rooted in a land
fairly radiating antiquity. Contrary
to popular belief, over two million of
these Indians do not speak Spanish
and communities and tribes are Iso
lated from each other because of the
lack of modern hlghwujs and meth
ods of communication."
Though highway construction la
under way in various parts of Mex
ico, railroads will continue to serve
as tie most convenient method of
reaching the cities of that country
for years to come, the speaker said.
The arrlvnl of trains in the numer
ous small Mexican cities is always
an event. Crowds of Indians and
Mexicans gather around the small
stations and venders offer. . choice
morsels, baskets, pottery and blan
kets to eager tourists.
Mr. Abbott entertainingly told of
the care-free Mexican lite, and de
scribed the cities with tftelr inter
esting homes, plazas and cathedrals.
Mexico City, with a population of
one and a quarter .million people, is
always a bright spot in a visit to
Mexico and the bull fight Is an event
especially interesting to tourists at
all inclined to that kind of enter
tainment, the speaker said. Mr. Ab
bott's address was one of the most
interesting yet presented before the
RoUry club.
Dave Canfleld, chief ranger of Cra
ter Lake national park, was a visit
ing Ro tar lan today. Other guests
were Mark Goldler, George Trelchler,
William F. Isaacs, A. 8. Rosenbaum,
Al Anderson and A. H. Banwell.

today. Mr. Walt plana on enlarging

8ASEBO, Japan, March 13. With
three men rescued out- of the 1 13
trapped In the hull of the capsized
torpedoboat Tomozuru, rescue workers
cut doggedly at a steel wall , late to
night in the hope that eight more
men might be found alive.
Officers said. 40 hours after the
heavily-armed little hip turned over
during maneuvers, that, it would be
Impossible to cut through that hull
before midnight to find what lay in
side. They were spurred on in their work
by a story from the rescued men that
eight of their companions were still
alive In the engine room when they
escaped through a hatch under water.
The floating coffin, still bottom
up as It was when a cruiser found it
off the coast, was shoved into the
Sasebo drydock, its masts and funnel
in the cutaway where keels ordinarily
! go.
Pumps went Into operation forcing
out the water from the resel.
The three sailors said their com
, rades in the engine room had been
i too weak to follow their avenue of
i escape.
The trio were able to walk after
they were taken to a hospital. They
had been reached through an air
hole drilled through the stricken
ship's side and then had been given
milk to revive their strength.
Then, while a tremendous cheer
went up from those working grimly
at the rescue, the sailors escaped
through a hatch and floated to the
surface.
It had been feared that all aboard
the tiny ship her tonnage was only
S27, although she carried armament
to match many vessels twice her size
were dead when she was found in
a sinking condition yesterday.
But, as the c miser Tatsuta towed
her, bottomslde up. toward port, anx
ious seamen aboard the Tatsuta heard
faint pounding. They listened. It
was repeated.
Faintly, then louder, the hammer
ing within the Tomozuru was con
tinued throupb the five hours re
quired to haul the torpedo boat to
Tawagaura. five miles southwest off
the Basebo naval base.
Setting to work frantically, me
chanics and steel workers began cut
ting an entry through the Tomozuru s
steel hull after she reached port.
The first heartening rescue was ef
fected within a comparatively short
time.
