THE MARKET WORLD
SLIGHT RAISE MADE
IN WHEAT MARKET

Minneapolis. Jan. 25.-May wheat
1-s to lac higher, July wheat 1-Sc
lower. The wheat market at the close
showed but little change compared
with the previous closing figures.
There was a little show of strength
at the start and during the first part
of the session. Later in the day the
market became easier and all of the
early gain was lost before the market
closed.
The strength in corn caused some
sympathetic strength in wheat but this
cereal also turned easier on the ad-
vance.
Clearances were only s0s,O00 bu. Of
wheat and flour.
Primary receipts today $4,000 bu.,
year ago 1,36S,000 bushels.
The wheat market has held within
a range of two cents today.

GRAIN OPINIONS.
O'Brien-The grain markets are
dull but very strong. Corn is in big
demand and looks like the best grain
to buy. I can't see any chance of
an early peace.
Logan & Bryan-Believe prices of
wheat must seek levels more attrac-
tive to foreigners. Do not look for
decline in corn.
Wagner Co.-Corn has merit be-
cause its export sale season may con-
tinue for months, whereas wheat sta
tistics are stale and the export sale
season is closing.
Ware Leland-Favor purchases of
| wheat corn and oats on normal re-
actions.
Thomson McKinnon-Extreme dull
ness which has prevailed in wheat
market recently means an absence of
imitation In values and healthy tech

TRIUMPHANT TRUTH,

Truth never dies. The ages come
The mountains wear away; the seas
retire;
Destruction lays earth's mighty cities
low;
And empires, states and dynastics
expire; :: At"'
Eut, caught and handed onward by
the wise,
Truth never dies
Though unreceived and scoffed at
through the years;
Though made the butt of ridicule
and jest:
Though held aloft for mockery and
jeers;
Denied by those of transient power
possessed;
Insulted by the insolence of lies,
Truth never dies.
1t answers not; it does not take
offense,
But with a mighty silence bides it's
time;
As some great cliff that braves the
eleInenLS,
And lifts through all the storms it's
head sublime,
And never dies.
AS rests the Sphinx amid Egyptian
sands;
AS loom OH high the snowy peak
and crest;
AS firm and patient as Gibraltar
stands
So truth, unwearied, waits the era
blest
When men shall turn to it with great
surprise.
Truth never dies.

HUMAN LIFE NEEDLESSlY

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 30.-There
are more than 100000 preventable
deaths in the United States every year

sick beds in this country who should
be engaged in useful occupations.
Such are the declarations made in
the last issue Of the journal Of Agri-
culture, published by students of the
University Of California, by Prof. Irv-
ing Fisher of Yale university.
Human life is needlessly shortened
in the United States,'' writes the east
ern educator. "Preventable diseases,
even when not fatal, cripple the power
to work and mar the joy of living.
venture the opinion that the average
man or woma1. in the United States is
not doing hail Of the work no, having
half of the joy of work of which the
human being is capable.
"While there is now a decreased
loss of life from infection by the germ
diseases, there is an increased loss of
life after middlo age from the degen-
erative diseases, such as hardening of
the arteries or Bright's disease"
Neglect of elemental sanitation is
declared to. be the chief cause Of this

Board Established to Control

Of Army Clothing.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 30.-Secretary
Baker has announced the establish
ment of a board of control for labor
standards in ARMY clothing, under the
cha irmanship of Louis KRISTEN, of
Boston. The other two members are
Mrs. Florence Kelley, general secretary
of the National Consumers league,
New York, and Capt. Walter E. Kruesi,
nuartermaster corps, United States re-
serves. Through this board the quar-
ternaster general will be enabled to
enforce the maintenance of sound in
dustrial and sanitary conditions in the
manufacture of army clothing, to in
spect factories, to see that proper
standards maintained by hdders on
army clothing. and act so that just
conditions prevail.
The government can not permit its
work to be done under sweatshop con-
ditions and it can not allow the evils
widely complained of to go uncor-
rected. Only through the establish
ment Of such a body as the board of
control now created will the govern
mert be assured that army clothing
is manufactured under recognized in
dustrial standards and in an atmos-
yhere Of good will between manufac-
turers and operatives. This alone will
assure fit clothing and it's prompt de-
livery for army needs.

MAD00'S PLAN FOR LIFE AND INDEMNITY: =.
INSURANCE. FOR. SOLDIERS AND SAILORS

education of the injured soldiers or
sailors, fitting them for lives Of activ-
ity and usefulness is part Of the plan.
The plan also contemplates free al
lowances to the families of soldiers and
sailors, the government supplementins
the sums set aside by the soldiers and
sailors out of their wages.
The insurance is not to be gift of
the government but is to be paid for
out of the pay of the insured men.
The government, however, is to take
upon itself the cost of collecting and
administering the funds and also the
extra hazard caused by the war. the
rate of IS per $1,000 being a normal
rate in peace time and an entirely in
adequate rate for war risk.
The workmen's compensation laws
and the experiences of insurance COM
panies in this country and the laws
and experiences of other countries
have been studied and used in the
preparation of this bill.
Function of Government.
Secretary McAdoo emphasizes the
j
function of the government by citing
the fact that in this war we are not
relying upon the volunteer system but
are drafting American men and COM
polling them to undergo danger and,
if necessary. make the supreme sacri-
flee for their country. A higher obi
CATION. he says. therefore rests upon
the government not only towards the
fighting men but towards those de-
Gus and humane government should
see to it that so far as is practicable
they should be given this protection,
not as a matter of mercy or charity
but as a matter of right. And that
they should enter into the service of
their country with the certain knowl-
edge that if death or or misfortune
comes to them they and their depend
ents are protected by insurance af-
fordedt hem by their government as
part of the compensation for the serv-
ice they are rendering their country.
In conclusion Secretary McAdoo
points out that willie this plan may
call for considerable expenditures at
present, vet the eventual cost to the
government of this plan will be very
much less than that which would re-
suit from the adherence to the present
pension program of the country, and,
further, that the pension system will
not provide the same benefits nor
cover the subject in the same compre-
hensive, --umane and equitable way.
