government is Anxious That SOLDIER
and Sailors Keep Up Their
Payments.

Despite the fact that the Govern.
ment is making every effort to have
soldiers and sailors keep up their
war risk insurance payments, thous-
ands OF discharged men are letting
their payments lapse, It is reported
py the authorities. It is thought
this is in great degree due to lack
OF information on the part OF the
discharged men, but the enlisted
men as well as many of their Off
GERS are both showing the same ten
dency to neglect making the pay
ments when due.
The machinery for converting the
insurance to a peace basis has not
yet been completed. When the new
schedules are announced, the man
who has been discharged and who
has kept up his insurance will be
given the choice of several forms
and he may also lessen the amount
of insurance carried II he so desires

GOVERNMENT WILL SELL ALL
WHEAT AT MILLING PRICES

The United States Food Admins
tration Grain Corporation has an
nounced that on March Is 1t will be-
gin sale Of its surplus wheat hold
ings in American milling centers In
an effort to prevent an increase In
flour prices. ,
julius H. Barnes, president OF the
corporation, said the Department Of
Agriculture report, issued few
days ago, indicated that, contrary
to public opinion, the crop of 1913
will provide no more than sufficient
to meet our home needs and the for
eign requirements falling upon US"
and added that already mills wero
experiencing such difficulty in OBJ
tanning wheat for milling that they
we're offering as high as 1Oc to 15c
bushel above the Government $
guaranteed price to farmers.
"The Grain Corporation" he said,
"by using part of its accumulated
stock for resale in the United States
hopes to relieve the public from any
material advance in the price of the
flour"
The Government wheat, he said,
will be offered for sale on and after
March is at such milling centers as
Duluth. Kansas City. Chicago. and
st Louis on the basis of cost plus
accumulated charges.

was expressed this week by the fed

business reported for February.
These reports were made by fed.
eral reserve agents in each district
based on specific surveys of COM
mercial and industrial conditions.
Reports as to labor unsmplOy.

press" says the boards review, but
the reports Of federal reserve agents
show that there have probably thus
far been over anxiety and exagger-
alton with respect to this matter.
From several manufacturing dis
tricts II Is reported that labor con-
ditions are far from satisfactory and
that there is considerable unemploy-
ment, but 1t Is also noted that tho
condition does not seem to have
grown worse during February"
II appears that the surplus OF la
Dor is smallest in the South an1
! Southwest, where. however. therb
are no indications of any reduction
In the wage scale. In the North anaA
East employees are demanding hi1HL
er wages Notwithstanding the ezis~-

sion of wages downward although
there are Indications of a, tendency
to let wages settle to O definiteslsveH.

provide labor for greater number

port, land by some IL is predicted
that the price of shoes will advance

mutation OF funds at centers and q

mates, the amount of boarded monS
