American
Reply
For Mandate

Geneva, Sept. 3.-The United
states reply to the associated pow
ers on the subject of mandates was
up for consideration by the coun-
Gil of the league Of nations at its
session here this morning. The
council found that the reply fur
nished satisfactory basis for con-
tinuation of negotiations, nov
withstanding that the commnnica-
tion from the United States with
holds permission for the mandate
question to be settled by the forth
coming meeting Of the assembly
of the league.
The American note makes nu-
merous suggestions for changes in
terms which appear TO be accept
able to the powers and the league
but adds an Interpretation of the
relations OF the United States te
mandates which involves some diff
ficulties. Altogether, however, a
favorable impression was created
in league circles by the American
note.
The council decided that there
was nothing further for It to do IN
the matter, since negotiations arr
going on directly between the var
ious mandatories and Washington

Pru1le Sales

Temporarily withdrawing prunes
from the market, the oregon
Growers Cooperative association
will for the present book no more
orders for prunes Of the 1871
crop for future delivery. Heavy
sales at opening prices and tine
strong likelihood Of higher prices

this action.

three days OF sales amounted 70
Is carloads, and nearly 2,bOo,0OO
pounds-a total of 45 cars OF the
future crop-were sold in the two
weeks following the opening OIL
prices.
The marked strengthening OF
the demand for prunes seems TO
indicate that eastern buyers are
beginning to learn the severe
shortage of all kinds of fruit
both canned and fresh in the
country this season.
Owing to the shortage OF the
prune crop this year the assocla'
tion is anticipating difficulty In
meeting the demand for Mistland
prunes in the 40 carload markets
which take prunes OF this brand
These markets used more than
$4,000, 900 pounds of oregon
prunes during the last season.
Enough prunes have been sold
SO that advance can be made tf
