The Capital Journal, Salem, Friday, January 22, 1943 Advance Irregularly In Active Trading New York, Jan. 22 (AP)-Support for assorted industrials, mainly blue chips, kept ery lights burning in stock market although profit taking cast shadows on many recent climbers. gains ran to 2 points or 80. Rails, steels and motors backed water and, in the final hour, prices were moderately mixed. Transfers were around 1,000,000 shares.

War news, investment demand and mild inflation sentiment again served as the principal bolstering influence. Notwithstanding uneven tendencies toward the last, many favorites posted new peaks for 1942-43. These included Oliver Farm, Deere, Montgomery Ward, International Nickel, Air Reduction, American Can, Westinghouse, General Electric, Dow Chemical, Allied Chemical and Pepsi-Cola. Ahead the greater part of the time were U.S. Rubber, International Harvester, Caterpillar Tractor, DuPont, Eastman Kodak, U.

S. Gypsum, Sperry, Anaconda, Western Union, American Telephone, Texas Co. and Standard Oil 1 (N.J.). was displayed by U.S. Steel, Bethlehem, Chrysler, General Motors, Santa Fe, Pennsylvania, Southern Pacific, Great Northern, Kennecott, United Aircraft, Yellow Truck and North American.

Heartening to Wall streeters was the sale of two Stock Exchange memberships at $28,000 each, up $1,000 from the last previous transaction. Grain Futures Show Gains Chicago, Jan. 22 (U.P) -Grain futures rallied to sharp gains on the board of trade today, under the influence of a campaign to revise farm parity prices upward to include farm labor costs. All markets closed with net gains. Wheat finished the day up to cents a bushel; corn up to oats up to rye up 1 to and soybeans off House farm bloc approval of the new parity bill lifted wheat prices to gains of almost two cents a bushel and gave a bullish tone to the trading.

The revision, which would add perhaps 10 to 12 per cent to parity prices, was defeated last September after the president expressed complete disapproval. With the need for farm labor and production both urgent, traders regarded the outlook for the new formula optimistically. Rye led the day's advance in prices and retained gains of about one cent a bushel. While wheat circles watched for developments in Washington, the market followed the upturn of rye, and some mill-buying resulted. Southwest interests liquidated September wheat, sales credited to hedging.

The corn market lagged but prices firmed with other grains. Commission houses traded on both sides of the oats market but prices held firm. Royal Neighbor Camp Installs Quinaby Labish Camp, R.

22 (AP)-A bill calling for upward revision of farm parity price levels, to include the cost of farm labor, was approved unanimously today by the house agriculture committee, opening in the new congress a farm bloc drive that the administration successfully opposed last year. The parity formula change, which some in the administration have estimated would add 10 to 12 per cent to the price computations, was defeated last September during the writing of anti-inflation legislation, after President Roosevelt had expressed "unalterable opposition." Rep. Pace of the bill, told newspapermen "This bill will not create any considerable increase in the cost of living this year, certainly less than $1,000,000,000, and in 1944 will increase the cost of living less than 4 per cent." Committee Chairman Fulmer S.C.) said he would try to have the legislation brought before the house at an early date, and predicted it soon would be placed on the president's desk. "Many of the principal agricultural commodities now are selling under present ceilings at more than what the recalculated parity would be," Pace said. "These commodities include cattle, hogs, chickens, turkeys, wool and other products." (Parity is a price computed on a formula intended to return to farmers a purchasing power of some past favorable period for agriculture, usually 1909-14.)

Oregon Farmers Planning Output Portland, Jan. 22. (U.P.)Oregon farmers are planning their 1943 output so that it will equal or exceed most of the war production goals set for the state, R. B. Taylor, state chairman of the USDA war board, reported at the end of the first week of the farm sign-up drive.

Fulfillment of farmers' plans to produce a maximum of essential crops depends on assistance given by city dwellers, women and school children during peak cultivating and harvesting seasons, Taylor believed. The main purpose of the current farm-to-farm canvass is to locate those farmers needing assistance, Taylor said. Ceiling Prices for Ersatz Coffee Washington, Jan. 22 (U.P)Ersatz coffee is headed for grocery store shelves.

22 (AP) Oregon wool growers undertook action on more major issues today with a resolution already on record urging utilization of all the state's grazing lands for the duration of the war. The resolution, adopted yesterday upon recommendation of the state association's grazing committee, protested any increase of grazing fees on Taylor act land and opposed the sale of private and deeded land to the government, particularly the forest service. It favored the McNary bill. The convention heard Dr. A.

L. Strand, president of Oregon State College, trace the similarities between sheepmen and educators. "Both require men with ideals and continuity of method," Dr. Strand said. "They must improve constantly on their original product.

They both must build SO that their ideas are perpetuated. Dr. Strand said that the function of education is to relate the individual to the environment in which he lives and that the successful sheepman is the one most in harmony in his methods with the surrounding territory. President Mae Hoke, Pendleton, urged growers to hasten victory with maximum production of meat and wool. He also advocated government purchase of the entire 1943 wool clip.

The convention requested the Baker county court to organize a fire district in grazing district No. 6. Standardize Canned Fruits Washington, Jan. 22 (U.P.) The office of price administration today put into effect a plan to protect the American housewife by standardizing grades and fixing maximum prices for canned fruits and vegetables. The plan originally was anno nounced Dec.

13 by former Price Administrator Leon Henderson. Its chief object, officials said, -is to let the housewife know exactly what she is buying and how much she should have to pay for it. The first stage of the plan went into operation today in a maximum price regulation standardizing grading and setting dollars-and-cents maximum prices for canned grapefruit juice at the packer level. Almost the entire 1943 pack of canned fruits and vegetables will be added as the packing season advances. No Comment on Wheat Ceiling Washington, Jan.

22 (AP) Secretary of Agriculture Claude Wickard refused to commit himself yesterday on possible ceilings on the price of wheat. The secretary was told at a press conference that it had been reported in trade circles that the office of price administration was seeking his approval of such ceilings. "I have heard of these proposals but know nothing about them," Wickard said. Other department officials who asked that they not be quoted said some government authorities believed ceilings should be established on wheat to prevent another price squeeze on flour millers. Twin Falls Tract Beats All Records Twin Falls, Idaho, Jan.

22 (P) -The Twin Falls tract, fertile south-central Idaho farming area, broke all its previous production records with a 1942 average sugar beet yield of 21.25 tons per acre. Reed Lewis, agriculturalist for the Amalgamated Sugar company, said today the yield was achieved on 5,994.2 acres. He said it may be a national record.

Oil Stocks Still Critically Low Washington, Jan.

22 (U.P) -Further tightening of petroleum restrictions in the east and extension of fuel oil rationing to Oregon and Washington appeared possible today as Deputy Petroleum Administrator Ralph K. Davies warned that oil stocks remain "critically" low. There was no official confirmation, but office of price administration spokesmen admitted that the fuel oil supply situation in the Pacific northwest recently has become increasingly serious because of transportation difficulties comparable to those which have hit the 17 eastern states. California, which is well equipped with pipe-lines and refineries, was not expected to be affected. Births, Deaths Deaths Wolf--Michael Wolf, infant son of Mr.

Harvey charged that "when the new deal approved liquor and gambling, decency went out of the window." He charged that the state is running the "biggest gambling racket in the state," and that racing employes should be working in defense industries. Rep. John Hall, Portland, said that legal gambling, like racing, deprives the illegal gamblers of revenue.

The senate passed and sent to the house four bills which clarify the appointments to the highway and liquor commissions, the barber board and sanitary authority, all of which have members each. Present law requires one member from each congressional district but, since Oregon now has four districts, the bills provide that no two members of each commission shall come from the same district. Portland, Jan. 22 (A)- Manpower problems held the attention of the Pacific logging congress today after the president of the West Coast Lumbermen's association paid the industry high tribute for its 1942 production record. Orville R.

Miller told 400 delegates from Oregon, Washing. ton, California, Idaho and Montana yesterday that if the navy's pennants were awarded to loggers, "there would be one flying from every snag in the woods." The fir belt produced 000,000 feet last year, the pine region 6,050,000,000 and the redwood area 500,000,000 he said, "and we did it in spite of furnishing Henry J. Kaiser with thousands of skilled loggers to help build his ships." This year's lumber demand will not be quite so great, Miller predicted but there will be more emphasis on specialized types, particularly airplane lumber. He warned the industry to meet peacetime problems with the same determination it tackled war production, adding, "if you don't, there are those in high places who are eager to do it for you--and you know who I mean." Forest fire control problems occupied a major share of the opening day sessions. were being restored by line without rest after storms left ped with snowshoes to reach isolated sections where trucks could not travel.

Major Seattle stores continued closed but the retail trade bureau said most of them planned to re-open Saturday. All Seattle schools continued closed.

Shutdowns of small bakeries. due to power failures, delivery troubles and labor shortage were blamed for an unprecedented "run" on bread which caused the larger Seattle bakeries, to plead for "sanity" in buying supplies.

Graham and James Riddell. The annual meeting, held on Tuesday, revealed deposits more than one hundred per cent for the year. Deposits December 31, 1941, were $446,288.24 and December 31, 1942, $904,323.39, an increase of $458,034.95. There are few rural banks in Oregon which can duplicate this showing. The number of farmers from th cantonment area who were financed at the local bank from the time of signing up their properties to the government to the actual receipt of government money is said to have exceeded the total number handled in all the other cities close to the area, combined.
