COFFEE MARKET.

Further weakness in the Brazil mar
kets caused yesterday renewed selling
in the coffee market here. The local
market opened weak at declines of AZ to

CTS points. Although prices worked up

net losses of 81 to 73 points, operators
were nervous, unsettled and not inclined
to take an aggressive stand either way,
preferring to await developments. There
was nothing in the cost and freight stu

OATS ACTION is SIMILAR

Several bearish factors became yester-
day prominent In the corn market and
as q result prices weakened. The mar
ket started to drop on belief that Il was
overbought Outside support was lack
ing throughout the session mainly because
all news favored shorts and there was
nothing to stimulate buying. The re-
port that farmers were willing to dis
pose Of their corn was contrary to adj
vices received In the last few days and
which stated that they were prepared to
hold 1t until options advanced.
Weakness In, hog products was an in
nuencing factor In keeping futures down
In the afternoon. Hog products declined
on news that agents of the packers had
been barred from Germany and concert
ed agitation for lower foodstuffs Toward
the close corn rallied a cent from its low
on active short covering and better COM
mission house demand. The steel strike.
1t is believed. has been discounted, but
should the walkout take place on Mon
day. as predicted. doubtless it will in
srire some sentimental selling. No con-
certed movement is expected, however,
unless radical measures are introduced
in the strika. Argentine shipments for
the week were reported as large. Profit
taking was heavy during the morning
and some OF 1t appeared in the after
noon.
Oats again followed corn, failing to
continue TO display its Independent
strength noted yesterday. Support was
lacking and poor foreign demand and
large visible stocks checked buying.
Shorts were the best buyers. The cash
demand was quiet. the country selling
few oats overnight Cars are said to be
scarce and receipts light. Provisions,
after dull and steady opening, due to
strength In hogs. dropped to new low
levels Weakness In hog products. lack

Modern Miller Reduction in. blowing

this time last year, when fall work was

caused by drought and hard ground.
Flowing in the spring wheat country

although farmers have put in less time

,. ID. Greene Points way Out of
Economic Difficulties of World.

- .Ats UEcehe FOtnta why Out OF
Economic Difficulties of World.
Jerome d. Greene of the firm of Lee,
Higginson & Co., at a luncheon of the
American Manufacturers Retail Associa-
ton, given yesterday at the McAlpin
Hotel, said that while the best informed
persons wisely hesitate to make a conf
dent analysis or to suggest q solution of
present economic difficulties, that zone
thing is certain and that Is that there Is
no royal road to an early and satisfactory
readjustment"
Mr.. Greene went on to say that the
fundamental necessity for way out of
the worlds difficulties was increased pro-
duction and that events of the last
few years have demonstrated to
the wnge earners, as never before,
that labor Is something of inn
nitely greater Importance and dignity
than place on pay roll. and that I'M
less labor Is productive. money, which
serves only as medium of exchange for
different goods and services, Is of no
moro use than a barrel of gold would be
to the solitary inhabitant of desert
island.
The world is in the position of a man
ufacturing plant that has been slowed
down or diverted to different use from
that for which II was intended Every
one knows that In starting a new plant
or reopening an old one theirs would be
period of months or even years before
economical and productive operation IL
possible. To go through that period re-
quires faith, courage and capital, and
capital requires credit There is no al
