cepted that Congress will vote the

Baker cited an instance early in
the war in which a railroad company
threatened to cut down telegraph
POLES along its right Of way because
il had been unable to negotiate a
satisfactory new contract.
an that instance I was compelled
to telegraph both companies threat
ening to take them over Baker said.
81 was exercising power of an ex-
tremely doubtful character. but IL
was a matter OF stern military neces-
sity because there would have been
complete isolation of that part OF the
country in which many military
camps were located had the service
been interrupted.
President Has Power.
at aoes without saying. think.
that the President would have power
TO deal with any foreseeable or un-
foreseeable contingency OF this sort,
he added. ANY interruption would
be an insufersble interference with
efficient conduct of the war"
Il don't know the present proportion Of
Government business on telegraph lines,
but il is certainly very large" Baker
continued. What 1 say about telegraph
also applies to telephones"
In response TO questions Of Congress
man Esch, the Secretary indicated his
opposition TO taking over short indie
pendent telephone lines. Although many
States require that these lines be con-
nected with the trunk lines Baker said
he thought this connection could be
severed by the Government
He did not know whether taking
control would be step toward Gov
ernment ownership or not II the
operation were more efficient under
Government control than under pri-
vate control 1t would be a strong ar
thought
Wants Ne Time Limit.
Baker had thought nothing of the
conditions Of control after the lines
had been taken over or OF the terms
Of compensation. He was opposed,
however, to any time limit on the
period of Government control.
DO you know of any circumstances
that requires passage of this resolu-
tion before niEht?' winslow asked.
At don't pretend to know of every
circumstance, but there is none in
the War Department today-Tuesday,"
Baker responded.
Probably we could not altogether
suppress Improper messages even
under Federal control" Baker said.
'sbut we could do better in that way
than we do now"

STOCK MARKET
IS STRONGER

New York, Oct. Pressure upon
United States steel and related shares
continued without a letup during the
morning session of the Stock Ex-
change. Rails and recognized invest
ment issues drew further away from
the war division. Shippings M mo-
tors also strengthened and Western
Union benefited by the rise in Amer
cialties which was still in progress at
noon embraced feathers and tobaccos.
Selling was at all times in excess of
demand, commission houses sharing
in the liquidation. Liberty bonds
were higher n French municipals
especially Paris skies were strong.
n line between peace and war
shares was again sharply defined at
the irregular opening of today's stock
market. as a result of developments
in the foreign situation yer the week
end. Popular war issues reacted 1 to
8 points in the first half hour, Bald
win locomotive, crucible steel and re-
public iron displaying greatest weak
ness at lowest levels for the present
movement. Corresponding gains were
registered by leading rails. notably
Canadian Pacific and Union Pacific,
also the better known petroleums,
while shippings, motors and utilities
rose from large fractions to two
points.
Some Of the stronger specialties,
particularly oils, were carried down
at midday by the increased weakness
Of war shares which were more free
ly offered. Late United States steel's
recovery of half of it's two point loss
affected partial rallies elsewhere.

N ssouri Valley Conference
Has Never Before Been in
Such Upset Condition.

Kansas City. Mo-, Oct. 7.-Never in
the history Of the Missouri Vale!
conference has there been such un.
certainty as to football prospects or
the eve of the seasons opening as.ir
This war year.
In other years it has been a ques.
ton of determining what veteran
players would be back in school and
what new talent from the high schools
was coming to try for vacant berths
But this fall everything has worked
to confuse the 'dopesters" so they
have contented themselves with try
ing to predict whether there would be
any games at all. Few veterans will
be back at any of the colleges and the
status of the freshmen, almost all of
whom will be members of the student
army training corps, is yet to be de-
termined.
Even If freshmen are played, as
seems probable, there still remains the
question of the Importance the war
department will attach to football
whether the commandments will give
the coaches opportunity to develop
teams as in other years.
The schedules themselves are more
or less tentative and there is a posi-
bility that the two weeks quarantine
to be placed on all student army
training corps entrants will wreck the
first games of the schedules. 1t seems
certain, at least. that the first few
games of the valley schools will be
played with the coaches dependent
upon the high school records of their
proteges.
Nebraska has taken by the horns
the question of playing freshmen and
announced it will make the move, thus
challenging its opponents to either
meet the move or cancel the games
Clyde Williams, athletic director al
Ames. is said to oppose the plan and
the attitude of Missouri authorities is
regarded as doubtful, while the two
Kansas members of the conference
favor it strongly. Drake university
n Washington university are eX-
pected to throw their weight against
the change. as the board of governors
of the conference already has allowed
them to play freshmen and if the bars
are thrown down to all they will lose
the advantage it was intended to give
them.
On the basis Of old men appearing
in the lineup this ear Kansas APP
pears to have an advantage with nine
veterans, five of whom are letter men.
The last years freshmen squad also
is expected to furnish some promising
candidates III there, as elsewhere,
great uncertainty continues as to
training arrangements, eligibility and
personnel Of the incoming students
enrolling in the student army training
corps who may or may not furnish
the gridiron heroes Of the season.

PEACE0FFER
AFFECTS CORN

Chicago, Oct. 7.-Gerraany's request
Tor an immediate armistice and for
peace negotiations brought about a
sharp break in the price of corn to-
day, but no sign of demoralized trad
ing. Business ~broadened out consid-
erably though, and brisk fluctuations
showed that the feeling was nervous
and that sentiment as to the future
course of prices was by no means one
sided. The fact that no extraordinary
pressure to sell developed was at
tributed largely to recent drastic peace
liquidation and also to the; general
opinion hat a quick cessation of hos
%tilities was not yet in sight. Opening
prices which ranged from 1 .3-S to
3 rs cents lower, with November
$1.26 to 1.27 and December 1924 1-2
above the top initial figures in the
nearer deliveries and then by fresh
setbacks all around.
Oats, like corn, was only moderately
affected by the action of the German
government. For the time being,
however. no other influence received
any notice. After opening 1 to 2 cents
lower, with November 6S 1-2 to 60,
the market made a slight recovery. ,
Provisions reflected the weakness of
cereals.
Pork tumbled with the days limit,
but lard and ribs were steadied some
what through buying on the part of
packers.
Corn-No. 2 yellow s1.5o@1.5s; No.

Barley 95 1.04.
Timothy $7.50@10.O0.
Glover and pork nominal.
i Ribs $22.62@23.5O.
Subsequently, the market became
almost bare of buying orders and
there was a decided acceleration of
the downward sweep of values. Dis
counting of peace chances appeared
to be solely responsible. The close
was heavy at about the lowest point
of the day, 6 7-S to &C under Satur-
days finish with November 1922 3-8
to 1-2 and December 1921 to 1-2.
