Losses of 1 to 4 points were numerous, and the closing tone wns heavy. Sales approximated uuu snares tor the two-flour session, Selling of the roils, notably Union Pacific, was. a depressing influence. That Issue broke to a new low for the year. Chrysler continued to sag, and also reached new low ground for Attendance in Wall Street was un UHunlly light, even for an August week-end session, but such Interest was there was seemed to be largely on tho bear side.

Traders were clearly concerned over the trend of corporate profits. In rails, It was pointed out Juno gross was up about 2 per cent, but net declined more than 10 per cent. Sentiment was not uniformly bearish, however, as some traders looked for signs of fall revival of business in a few weeks, and pointed to favor able retail sales reports. Automobile production this week has held up around last weeks levels, It was pointed out, and was again above 1033. Wall Street was awaiting with keen interest President Roosevelt's speeches for next week, particularly the one at Orcen Bay, in the hope that stimulating administration policies might be disclosed.

4. OP) Premiums on cube butter over the so-called official price named for the state by the produce exchange, were still being paid for 02 score and better. Strength of the trade continued to be suggested despite the recent manipulative trend in the San Francisco market which registers quick changes. Demand for butter all over the country was easily taking care of current churning even though some recent increase in the storage supply was shown in spots. In the trade the drop in the San Francisco price suggested that the Californlane were trying to get some cheaper butter for storage.

Butterfat buying price was almost general at 23-24c lb. Portland delivery. Prlcea on eggs were somewhat mixed with a like condition in the quality of the so-called fresh stock. The price appeared to depend upon what per cent of storage goods is mixed. Trade in chickens was still disturbed by the early week's slash of prices here by northern interests who filled up the local trade at a very substantial cut under former values here.

There was still quite a fair sized demand for dressed turkeys with receipts chiefly of old crop hens. These sell mainly 16c lb. for the best available with toms 1 to 2c less. Eastern markets were still seeking liberal lots of vegetables in the Pacific northwest with all the root stock in favor. Owing to prices here being bigher than the north, little trade for shipment was shown locally.

Within a week or 10 days a small supply of new crop Willamette valley onions was due in Portland with maturity the earliest ever known. Market was still of nominal character. Walla Walla was weak. Practically steady tone was suggested for cantaloupes of top quality with reports suggesting decreasing offerings from the Yakima territory. While Crawford peaches continued in chief call and only a small supply of these available, Elbertas and Hales were moving better at late prices.

Tbe trade was complaining of the aale of Fay Elbertas as Hales. heaters By R. W. J. SATURDAY PROGRAMS COLONIAL: "College Humor." with Bing Crosby.
