CHICAGO, Feb. 21.-Directors of the
Chicago board of trade today are con-
fident they have checked wild specu-
lation in oats and unreasonable adj
vances of oats prices. A resolution
forbidding an advance of more than
two cents per bushel in prices of oats
futures in one days session has been
adopted.
The action of the board was taken
after a conference with representa-
tives of the United States food admin
istration who are said to have warned
the directors that some method must
be devised to check the advance of
grain prices. 1t is understood that
more drastic action will follow if the
method adopted is not successful.
Under heavy buying oats prices in
the Chicago market have advanced
|63s to csc.
No restriction was placed by the
board upon the downward action of
the market.

the Community church southeast of

AMERICANS GO THE LIMIT
Speed Of Motorcycles Used by United
States Soldiers Attracts Atten.
ton In Paris.

All Paris is familiar now with the
sight of huge motorcycles ridden by
big fellows in campaign hats and guild
ed through the streets at alarming
speeds by sure and steady hands, says
a war correspondent. It seems that
the ordinary French motorcycle has
something like three horsepower, while
these American military motorcycles
develop II horsepower. This leads the
French to observe that Americans love
power and a lot Of 1t. In their ma.
chimes they must have 1t.
One Of the Paris papers has been ut
pains to look up a record made in q
A-hour race on the Sheepshead Bay
track not long ago. Somebody on a
mechanical red devil with two wheels
maintained during that period, It
seems. an average speed Of hundred
miles an hour. The French common.
tator notes the figures. and hopes that
the American staff motorcyclists who
carry dispatches between American OF.
ficers and the various bureaus Of the
French war department will not make
1t a point Of national honor to equal
the Sheepshead Bay record on the
Boulevard Saint German. One fan.

the suggestion-mildly, a. he says
