ANOTHER ARGUMENT FOR WAR SAVINGS STAMPS.

It is merely asking for the use of the money and is willing to pay liber- ally for it.
 The government simply wishes to employ your money and pay you for it's service,. just as it would employ you and pay you for your services.
 You will get your money back with interest-compound interest at the rate of 4 per cent per annum. The stamps mature in five years, but you can cash them at any time you wish before the date of maturity, and get interest at per cent.
 If you need the service of your money before five years, the Savings Stamps handed to the postmaster will be the letter of resignation, and you will get your money back, with additional payment for the time you have permitted the government to use it.
 There is no red tape, no bother, no uncertainty, no work. It is the sim plest, safest and most satisfactory investment you can make.

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Nov 6.LProspects oi greatly enlarged food requirements for Europe lead to big advances to day in quotations on Change here Corn ran up S14 a bushel and closed strong at net gain of 71z to 77sC with December 1.21A to 1.211s and January 1.221s to 1.22$s. Oats climbed 234 to 35s, and provisions 35c to S2.20
 Activity on the buying side broad ened out the corn market right from the beginning Attention focused on reports that the countries which ac. cepted an armistice would receive all the aid practicable for their subsis- tance, and that the United States would be counted on heavily to meet urgent needs. Throughout the day, scarcity of offerings kept the market from any important reactions.
 Announcement that export business over the holiday had been good helped to inspire lively demand for oats.
 Bulges in the sale of hogs and grain sent provisions skyward. Packers and shorts did good deal of the buying. Iet

NEW YORK, Nov. 6. - Politics We dsd far more influence over to- Ca,s stock market shan any other factor. even the foreign situation be mg relegated to the background Much of the buying was attributed to investment sources.
 This was evinced less by the strength of stocks than by the de mands for bonds, many of which reg isteIed highest quotations of the past two years or mcre. Even the war section of the stock list displayed a liberal measure of strength, muni- tions and equipments closing mostly at gains of to points.
 United Steel fluctuated on med. crate dealings between 10115 and 1O37s, holding virtually all it's ad- vance at a net gain of 215 points
 Rails furnished the broadest and most convincing foundation, second ary or non-dividend-paying issues re- spending almost as substantially as high class shares which were fea- tured by Southern Pacific at the years new maximum of 1067s, all but the smallest fraction of which was re- tained.
 Shippings supplied a large percent age of the sessions dealings, Marine preferred losing part of it's 3A point rise in the last hour.
 Among the inactive equipments, Harvester company was conspicuous for its gain of 63s points. Sales amounted to 675,O00 shares.
 The strength of the bond market on the most diversified dealings of the year was wholly due to rails, in which speculative issues rose 1 to 21s per cent. Liberty bonds were firm, lnternationals becoming irregular after early gains. Total sales, par value, aggregated $14.775, 900.
 Old United States bonds were un- changed on call, coupon 4s rising F per cent on sales.
