Chicago, Aug. 5.-The United
States confronts a simple problem.
One question Are the rail unions to
run the United States? Are they to
be permitted the opinion they form
the key OF things and can they tie
up any time? Their demands beat
anything known. They require a
drastic setback. The affair can be
made national. They can be forbid
den to strike until a public vote or
discussion occupying one year at
least. The absurdity of rushing so
profound an idea is apparent. Mean
while the attitude of labor and high
costs shake every market. Traders
may be afraid of the long side in
grain. The rush of politicians to. cut
living cost is also a terrific factor.
Many Chicago observers think the
government is alarmed and will cut
the wkeat price to $1.75. The grains

CORN AIDED BY
ORDERS GIVEN
FOR DECLINES
Buying Bids Awaiting Fresh Breaks
Bolster Market After An
other Weak Opening.

Chicago, Ill, Aug. 5.-Buying or
ders which were awaiting a fresh
break in the price of corn lifted
the market today, but not until
the new loss in values had become
quite sharp. Continued liquida-
ton at the outset was based on
general rains, Tower quotations on
hogs, and expected further deVel-
opment of the campaign against
abnormal cost of necessities. On
the other hand, buyers commended
that bearish possibilities regarding
corn had already been discounted
for the present at least. Opening
prices, which ranged from Il c to
IN lower, with September LIZ to
1.7SA and December LAT to 1.4S.
were followed by a rise to we'll
above yesterdays finish for both
the principal months,
Toward the last acute weakness
on account of chances
that a drastic lowering of wheat to
consumers might suddenly be de-
cided upon at Washington. The
market closed excited, 411ac to INC
net lower, with September LA to
1.741a and December 1.42 to 1.43A.
Oats were governed by the action
of corn. Demand came chiefly from
shorts. After opening &c to 1Hc
off, including September at 20 to
7OAc, the market receded a little
more, and then scored quick mod
crate advance.
Weakness in the hog market car
ried provisions down grade. Pork
especially gave way.
