Portland Journal. Market Was Strong and Price Trend Upward New York, Sept. 0. The New York Evening Sun financial review today said: While there was a good deal of see sawing in today's stock market, strength underlay the general list from the outset. This was particularly true of the industrial shares despite tho presence of a few weak spots among the specialties. Trading was quiet when compared with yestorday's rathor fevensn mo ments. It may bo well that with, tho con tinned casing in call money, today's quotation being as low as 3 1-2 per cent that buying powers will gradually make itself felt. Advances of a point or more were received in the steel shares and even more in the coppers which were favor ably affected by persistent reports that the government nau iiau price of the red metal at 20 cents, a re port to which color was lent by the announcement of a. recent sale of cop per to the allies at that price. Net changes in tho first three hours were not considerable in tho industrial de- nartment. The rails were disposed 10 ease off and losses of one to two points were numerous but trading in that quarter was sluggish. Prices woruea lower no wo ion advanced.

WHEAT WILL BRING $2.20 IN PORTLAND Mr. Hoover Says Chicago Bases Will U Used Temporarily Portland, Or., Sept. 6. Pending final determination of a basic grain price for Portland and other north Pacific coast terminals, buyers were authorized yes terday to do business on the basis of the recently established Chicago market, or $2.20 a bushel for first-grade hard win ter wheat. M. H. Houser, agent for the Federal Grain Corporation in Oregon, Washing ton and Idaho,, promulgated a schedule of prices for the various grades and spe cies of wheat grown in the northwest and advised the trade that it is at lib erty to buy on this schedule with the restriction, however that grain cannot be held for more than JO days, as pro vided by the newly enacted federal food laws. Portland Used as Basic Point. Meanwhile the Chamber of Commerce and various farmers' organizations in the northwest are active in their efforts to have Portland established as a pri mary wheat market on a veritable par ity with Chicago. It is pointed out that if all the gov ernment vessels now being built here are loaded with government grain, des tined for the allied countries, the bulk of the season's crop not required for local consumption, can be handled by water, hus the - expensive rail haul, which would reduce the price of grain in the interior to $1.90, would be elim inated.

The plan was put into effect through the treasury department today. In a letter addressed to the president of every national bank, Conitroller of the Currency John Skelton Williams asked the appointment of a "food reporter" from the staff of each bank, or from among the women in the home of the bank officials. "Hoover desires," said the letter, "to find correspondents in each place who will inform themselves at the end of each week the prices being charged by retail grocers and food dealers for thirty articles named." This plan is announced on the heels of a report by Governor i.dge, ot isew Jersev, following a state wide investi gation, that retail dealers handling New Jersey product in .New YorK Citv have "made from 90 to 900 per cent profits, whereas the producer and middleman got a very small margin.
