RESTRICTIONS
 BE CONTINUED
UNTIL JULY WHEAT
 HAS BEEN MARKETED
Asserted Plenty of Grain in the COun- try-Committee Appointed to go to Capital to Urge Legislation to Stop Allies Buying.

CHICAGO, May 1.-The restric- tions placed upon dealing in futures by the executive committee of the Board of Trade have been continued until after the July crop has been marketed. according to President Griffin. lie states that the action oi the governing boards of the various grain exchanges in setting maximum price on July and September wheat has completely killed speculation and has quieted the hysteria prevailing when the rule prohibiting the deal ing in futures went into effect. Presi- dent Griffin fiatly announces that the so-called experts who are telling there is plenty of wheat in the country for all needs. and that the principal cause of the extremely high' prices is that the railroads of the country are de- voting their energies to transporting coal and steel instead of foodstuffs. It is consistently rumored here that a committee of three men has been sent to the National Capital to urge leg islation against the further buying of foodstuffs in this country by agents of the Entente Powers. It is asserted that certain agents of the Entente Allies have been using the funds in their control to buy enormous Quant- ities of wheat and other cereals on the slumps and then sell the same on the rebound occasioned by their enormous buying. These agents. 1t is alleged, have bought far in excess of the needs of the nations they repre- sent for purely speculative purposes.

WASHINGTON. D. C., May IT. - President Wilson. in an effort to hurry the war legislation through Congress. called conference of the House and Senate leaders at the White House last evening, during which he sharply chided the members for the delay in congressional action which is so seriously hampering the preparations for the war, and pointing out that every days delay would prove costly He urged that every eff fort be made to hasten legislation.
 It is generally conceded that the failure of Congress to accomplish re- suits in the present crisis is due to the lack of leadership. Wilson's scold- ing last night will probably have the effect of speeding up action. as Con gress has been dawdling along. talk ing much unnecessary time on meas ures wherein speed was of the ut most importance.
