FLOUR KEEPS SLIPPING THE
WRONG WAY-WAR BLAMED

WROINS tNHI-bNHN DET"-O
Flour is now $3.50 barrel. About
every three days lately it is taking a
jump of 20 cents. upward. 1t is now
$1.7O higher than when the war
started.
Feverish gambling is on at the
Board of Trade. Every speculative
sport who has little loose change
wants to bet on whether enough ships
will be found to carry Americas
grain surplus to the hungry nations
at war. If the ships can be found
every buyer of grain who can deliver
for export will make cleanup.
Of course, they're not buying much
real wheat down there in the pit at
the butt end of LaSalle street. They
are just putting their bets on how
high wheat will go.
With flour going higher every day
and the English war office saying the
war will run three years, there has
never been so much excitement in
betting on what will be the top-notch
price.
This game played in the wheat pit
and it's effect on the market prices OF
flour and bread is being looked to by
federal investigators, according to
U. S. Dist Atty Wilkerson.
One more reason for higher prices
came out yesterday. Wheat exports
in July broke all records and more
than doubled over 1913. Clearances
from U. S. ports in July were 3O,OOO,-
900 bushels this year, as against 49,
100000 a year previous.
Such immense amounts of wheat
going to Europe in July before the
war was declared is taken as signi-
ficant that some nations may have
known war was coming and were lay
ing in bread supplies.
