AIDING INDUSTRIALS
Wall Street Expects Congress to
Adopt Presidents Guarantee'Plan.
By RRoApAN WALL.

New York, Dec. a.-Goyernment
control of the railroads was still the
most important Wall Street factor,
and today 1t made its influence felt in
the industrial list. The industrials
will benefit by having the tracks
cleared for greater traffic movement.
Strength of the coppers was due to
a feeling that by clearing up the traf-
fic tangle manufacturing of all kinds
can go on more freely and thus more
copper can be used. Motors needed
no new explanation for their strength.
While Wall Street believes that
Congress will do exactly as President
Wilson has requested-that is. guar
antee TO the railroads the average
net earnings for the three years end
ing June 30, 1sff-there Is some re-
straint due to fear that radicals in
Congress may attempt to modify the
Presidents plan.
Stocks opened only steady, but they
continued rising and growing more
active as the day progressed. Steels
were strong all day. but did not make
their best showing until late In the
session, when United States Steel
The motors opened strong and held
their strength throughout most Of the
session. General Motors and Chevro-
let were in leadership OF this group.
Automobile stocks in general re-
sponded also to detailed confirmation
of the statements that had been made
in this column for the last two months
to the effect that passenger cars
would be restricted but slightly in
1918 and that the loss In that depart
ment would be more than made up in
the truck departments.
Specialties were active. although in
siders had little to say about them.
International Nickel Is being accumu-
lated by important interests that sold

CHICAGO GRAIN.
By JOSEPH E. PRTTCHARp.


Chicago. Dec 3l.-There was a renewal Of
peace talk today in which the grain trade took
considerable interest. The larger holders Of
corn and oats sold freely and the consequence
was severe price breaks in oats, that market
showing losses Of II and 1Ac for the day. The
greatest loss was in the December, as it was
generally felt that the deliveries Of oats on
December contracts would be liberal. Corn felt
the effects of the peace news along with oats
and that grain sold of kaKc
The markets were fairly active, although part
Of the session was given over to horse play by
the younger elemnt on the board. Sentiment
on both corn and oats was decidedly bearish
and the action Of the oats market seemed to
take the life out Of the longs in corn and also
caused some selling in the way Of putting out
short lines.
There were declines in the provisions market
on liquidation by January longs. which con-
gested the market and forced lower prices after
a higher start. Hog receipts were disappointing
and prices at the yards were IS 10 % cents
higher. Cash provisions were reported dun and
