Coffee Market

New York, December 13.-The only fresh feature to attract much attention in the coffee trade here today appeared to be an announcement from the food admin istration that officials of the shipping control committee suggested that firms interested in vessels for coffee from Bra gil advise them of requirements and >an endeavor would be made to arrange ves- sel space.

CORN SCARS ID THE NEW RECORD PRICES
Oats and Provisions Also Bolstered Up on the New
 Strength of Corn

Chicago, December 1S.-Ipcreased rural buying. together with adverse weather lifted the corn market today to the high est prices yet this season. The close was unsettled at 2ss to 3sl net advance with January s13sA to $1.ssk and May $l.SSas to $.13SSs.
 Oats gained E to K. The outcome in provisions ranged from 2 cents decline to a rise of 45c.
 Sentiment in favor fof the bull side of the corn market gathered force almost from the outset. Buying at first was of scattered sort and appeared to be due chiefly to the fact that the mild temper atures and excessive rain had made country roads difficult for deliveries and would tend to hamper the crop movement Reports indicating the minority of pro- ducers were inclined to seek decidely prices on account of the govern ment crop figures led afterward to a broad general demand. Profit taking eased toward the last but all offerings were readily absorbed.
 Oats.s like corn, responded to en- larged outside buying. Exporters though were said to have withdrawn from the market.
 Although weakness in the hog mar ket had a temporary bearish effect on provisions, the strength of corn brought about subseuuent rallies

ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF MOTOR
CARS FOR THE RED CROSS

What the motor truck and car can
accomplish as means Of wholesale
transportation is being demonstrated
daily in France by the American Red
Cross feet Of 634 vehicles. These not
ony handle an average of $500 tons
Of freight monthly at fourteen ports,
move nearly thousand tons per week
from the Paris stations and the Seine
landings but transport supplies, work
ers, refugees and wounded in all sec
lions Of France, not emitting those
parts under shell fire. If a hospital
suddenly wires in that it needs emery
ency supplies, if a car or truck will get
them there quicker than will a train,
the load goes with Red Cross driver.
If a German drive threatens a village,
Red Cross trucks are there to move the
civilians and their belongings to point
of safety or hasten them to refugee
trains waiting at distant stations. The
Ambulances may assist with wounded
soldiers on their way back to base hos
pitfalls or may answer a call from a
bombing raid to help uncover and re-
move the wounded.
Of the feet, 385 are trucks and am
balances, 246 ordinary cars and % mo-
torcycles. To keep the feet moving,
the Bed Cross maintains two large gar
ages and an automobile park in Paris.
Fifteen other garages meet the needs Of
the port and other transportation ser
vices. Complete machine shops with
skilled mechanics are maintained at
the chief garage.
Speed in handling goods at the ports
is essential and the Red Cross drivers
are rather proud of moving 300 tons
from one landing in single day. A
single cargo Of $4,000 cases weighing
$50 tons was handled with similar
speed by the gasoline transportation
corps. The goods platform at Paris
may contain $1,000 cases at time.
Practically every article shipped via
Red Cross from America, whether a
baby's sock, case of bandages or a
complete hospital equipment, is handled
at some point in one Of these cars.
