WEEKLY GRAM'AND
PROVISION REVIEW

Chicago, ILL.,, Dec. 6.-Anxiety
regarding coal shortage, together
with the fact that the visible sup
ply OF corn Is one of the smallest
on record has tended during the
last week to make corn pfices
average higher. Quotations this
morning compared with a week
ago varied from sc decline to
gains Of 2hc. Oats showed an ad-
vance Of &c to &c. In provisions,
the net, difference ranged from 60c
loss to $3.50 upturn.
Although month end liquidation
on the part Of the holders who had
NO government license brought
about something of a tumble of
prices in the corn market, the drop
was soon more than offset by at
tention to the ecantiness Of the
stock of corn here and at other
primary -centers and by anticipa-
tons that as a result of coal strike
developments the movement of
corn from sources would be more
restricted than had before seemed
likely. Shutting down OF big in
dustries, however, as we'll as new

General Blue Of the public health

In estimating the hospital facili-
ties to be needed, the surgeon gen.
eral took into account the treat
msnt OF selective service men
passed by local boards, but later
rejected ut the camps. Legislation
providing for their treatment by
the government has passed the
house and now awaits senate ac-
ton.
DR.: Blue also recommended that
the medical attention also. be ex-
tended to men who are suffering
less thap 10 per cent disability
from war service. declaring that
these men eventually would suffer
nervous disability unless given
proper treatment now. "
'Their immediate treatment" he
added, would save the government
