1M1 PAGE SIX THE NEWS AND THE HERALD. KLAMATH TALIS. OREGON April Makketb and fyinoHcial BUYERS ALDOF AS WAR STOCKS NEW YORK. April 21 (JP) The itock market today looked ai thouKh it was pretty well "sold out" but mwy potential buyers again were kept m the waiting column by the pessimis tic tenor of the wai news. The turnover of approximate ly 400.000 shares whs helped by two 200,000-share b'ocks of Commonwealth and Southern, unchanged at I. That the market may have , done lot of discounting of un palatable foreign happenings was thought to have attracted bidding. While business progress was viewed as fairly satisfactory, tax and labor worries remained as speculative handicaps.

Now statements of this sort naturally make me feel pretty nappy. Because I h a v e always felt that, unless I could create the most beauti ful Funeral Service AND do it for less, I was falling down on my aims. Yov tee, al most anyone could create a superlative Funeral Service. The superb casket designs put out by the manufacturers, plus the banks of flowers sent by friends, would take care of that. And almost anyone could furnish an inexpensive Funeral Service. That's merely a matter of sup plying an inexpensive casket. But to combine the two to furnish richness and distinction and beauty and to do it for the lowest possible price, there's a task to test one. But lt is a task to which I have devoted myself for years. And clients are pleased with the economy which results. The years behind this firm, years during which we have satis factorily served rich and poor and middle class families, give you assurance that your price needs will be properly appreci atedand metl Next Monday Mr. WhiUock of the Earl Whltlock Funeral Home will comment on Home Perils. l W i la3-- 5!l5- Carload Potato Shipments JDav of H Mn(h Season of 1940-41 R Season of 1939-40 Apr. to Season Apr. to Season Apr.

Loss es of mora than a cent at times carried prices to levels 4 to 5 cents below the highs reached about two weeks ago. War news, weakness of se curities and failure of tempera turea in the southwest to fall as low as had been expected Saturday were largely respon sible for the selling. Buying which stimulated a recovery of about half the loss was associ ated with heavy overseas ship ments of wheat and flour from North America and reports that Spain was after more Argen tine grain.

WOOL MARKET BOSTON, April 21 (AP-US DA) New business was very slow today in the Boston wool market. Only a few Inquiries were being received. These were mostly for fine original bag territory wools, the three eighths and quarter-blood grades of fleeces, and various grades of South American wools. The lack of offerings of three-eighths and quarter-blood fleece wools was stimulating Inquiries for similar grade spot South Amer ican wools. Quotations on do mestic and foreign wools were unchanged, compared with the close of last week. We can exist without the sup port of the population.
