Chicago, Jan 2S.-Active buying on
the part OF commission houses and pit
traders sent the wheat market upward
today, despite some weakness at the
start. The announcement that the en-
tire mercantile marine of Great Britain
had been taken under government con-
troll in order to keep down ocean
freight rates seemed at first to indi-
cate a likelihood OF enlarged ship
ments from Argentina and Australia
but later the view prevailed that the
outlook promised increased demand Tor
exports from the United States. Small
ness of receipts northwest counted
also in favor of the bulls. Opening
prices. which varied from q decline to
a shade advance. were followed by a
substantial gain all around.
Gossip that exporters were taking
back wheat from foreigners and were
selling futures led subsequently to a
sharp setback in prices. The close was

many communities, IT In now becoming
common for counties to adopt this
plan. In all engineering construction
it IL customary to allow a certain per-
centage of the cost for engineering
and supervision. There 10 no reason
why highway building should be made
an exception to this rule. At least
five per cent of the bond issue may
well be set aside for engineering and
supervision alone. Money spent to
hire a competent engineer to make pre-
liminary Investigations before bonds
are issued and to plan and supervise
construction will be we'll spent. It
is not uncommon to find counties that
will repeatedly postpone the sale of
bonds in order to obtain an increase
OF one per cent in bid for 100000
or less and then proceed to construct
the roads in a most haphazard and ILL
planned manner.
