Crow's Lumber Market, Portland, reported a slight in crease in the price index for the two-week period ending April 3, the first such rise since early February. Produc tion at the small mill level was down slightly, it said, but with demand from the east and midwest holding steady, the prices showed some im provement. Random Lengths, Eugene lumber market news service, noted a great degree of optim ism in the industry last week, although there was little ma terial reason for it. The service reported that the week was slow in terms of actual trading. The overall bullishness was attributed largely to fair order files at the mills and to the hope that improved weather in the con suming areas would lead to an increase in buying.

Judy Garland Turns Over Jewels In Lieu of Bond New York HP) Judy Garland went to court in a sack Thursday and meekly turned over to the state of New York her diamonds, her pearls, her rubies and her fanciest night club costumes. The temperamental singer, who flounced off a Brooklyn night club stage Sunday night, was called up to answer charges she owes the state $8,673 in income taxes left over from palmier days, pri marily her smash hit appear ance at the vaudeville Palace in 1952. In Lieu of Bond The gowns and jewelry were picked up at her hotel later in lieu of $10,000 bond to assure her appearance for further questioning by tax agents next Monday. Miss Garland had originally refused to talk to tax agents. They swore out a warrant for her arrest. Then she agreed to appear in Supreme Court, Queens, Thursday, morning. When she didn't appear, deputy sheriffs went to her Manhattan hotel. Her attorney assured them he'd bring Miss Garland right along, and he did. Her only words, in court were "yes, sir," when the judge asked if she were will ing to turn over her posses sions as bond. Gowns Also Taken They included a diamond bracelet, valued at $18,000, she said was given her by her estranged husband, Sid Luft, a wrist watch given her by her mother on her 21st birth day, a string of pearls and other diamond and ruby trinkets. The tax men also latched on to a group of on stage gowns valued at $350 each. The sack she went to court in was strictly fashionable, a purple chemise dress, topped by a red and blue hat. Taxpayers Asked To Retain Forms Portland A reminder to Federal income taxpayers to retain their copies of returns during the current tax season was issued today by District Director Ralph C. Granquist of the Portland office of the Internal Revenue service. Rec ords of income and expense used in preparation of the re turn also should be kept, he said. "Tax forms and records must be preserved for at least three years from the deadline date, April 15, in case any question concerning a return should arise," Granquist stat ed. "Beyond this requirement, however, taxpayers should find that retention of their copies of returns should help them in filing next year es pecially if theJe is little or no change in their financial sta tus. In addition, the Revenue Service suggests that records of 1958 ependitures cancel led checks, receipts, notations of contributions, sales taxes and other levies, interest pay ments and other deductible items be retained with the return copy for ready refer ence in computing 1958 Fed eral and state returns." 4-1 CLUB NEWS KNITTING CLUB The Knitting club held its 6th meeting at the home of Mary Harlott.
