PORTLAND, ORE., February 11.—Portland's sta-
bility and business condition was reflected in
the substantial increases in bank clearances for
January over the same month of last year. This
was declared to be significant of the large
commercial movement of the present time. Ac-
cording to the Merchants' Exchange report the
exports from the port of Portland also showed
a sharp increase, over January of 1925. The music
dealers all reported excellent business for the
month and the comparison with January of last
year was favorable in every report.

SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS, Febuary 14.—Guy Massey,
writer of the "Prisoner's Song," who died here
on Saturday, was accorded a burial with full
military honors. Massey was a World War
veteran, a boxer, singer and composer. The
burial took place in Dallas, Texas.
Contrary to the usual rumors that accompany
the death of a composer in which it is stated
that he took no part of the large profits made
on the "Prisoner's Song," but sold the number
outright, the facts show that its popularity
brought him heavy returns.
