The alliance, which marks the end
OF belglum's guaranteed neutrality in
time OF peace, and which has long been
expected as the natural outgrowth of
the friendship developed between the
two countries during the war, will not
be extended to take in any other ma
ton. 1T has been suggested that Great
Britain, with whom Belgium desires a
military convention, would join in the
new alliance, but as the London gov
ernment declied to take part the con-
versatlons between Foch and Maglince,
~ IS oelleved that any arrangement be-
tween Great Britain and either France
or Belgium will be made separate

SUDDEN AND ACUTE WEAKNESS DEVELOPS
 IN THE CORN MARKET
Prices Slump on False Reports That Switchmen's Strike Had Been Settled-Provisions
 Descend
By Associated Press


 Chicago, May 2S.--Acute weakness sud- denly manifested itself in the corn mar ket today simultaneous with false reports that the swtchmen's strike had been settled. Although denials of any set clement were soon forthcoming prices fell 6l4c, and closed nervous, 42sQ5Ac net lower. With July $163 to sl.6Sas and Sep tember, $1.5l9s to $1.51A. Oats lost %c to 314c and provisions Pc to soc.
 Even before the big collapse of values in the corn market, fluctuations had been unusually wide and frequent, bears had an advantage at the opening as the sup ply of railway cars west showed an in crease, and it was said country loadings were larger, the fact, however, that ex- porters were bidding 7c a bushel higher than yesterday for wheat led quickly to sharp advance in corn.
 Then came an overpowering wave of selling on the part both of longs and short but with no apparent definite basis except the strike settlement rumors Prospects of a decided increase of corn receipts next week tended to deaden rai- lying power at the last.
 Oats were swayed by the same factors that governed corn. Shipping call was slow.
 Provisions descended with grain, despite higher quotations on hogs. Selling pres sure was not heavy, but investment de- mand was lacking.

Weekly Cotton Review
By Associated Press

New York, May 2S.-The course of the market for cotton futures during the past week has again reflected the force of conflicting influences. Dur ing the earlier part of the period prices broke sharply owing to unfavor- able reports from the goods trade, nervousness over general economic conditions, the sharp break in the Egyptian market, declines in the southwestern spot markets, and the appearance of more favorable weather or growing conditions in the belt. Oc- tober contracts sold off to 3415 mak- inG a decline of 260 points from the high level of the previous week and O. more than three cents a pound from the high record of last month.

Award Not Including S2,500 a Year Minimum for COm- mon Labor Will Be Con-

By Associated Pre.s

Chicago, May 2s.-Officials of rail- road employees organizations not only will feel compelled to refrain from trying to prevent the men from leav- ing railroad service, but will acquiesce in such action, unless the railway labor board grants prompt and just wage increase. This testimony was given today by B. NJ. Jewell acting presi- dent of the railroad shopmen's de- partment in closing labor's rebuttal in the hearing being conducted by the board.
 At the same time MT. Jewell declared any award not including a minimum wage of s2,5OO year for common la Dor in the railroad crafts, establish ment of differentials taking into con- sideration the hazard. experience and responsibility and consideration by the board of the national agreements made when the roads were under federal control, would not be considered a just award"

a reiteration of requests made by rep resentatives of all other railway crafts in their testimony and elicited a ques- ton from Judge R. NJ. Barton, chair man of the board as to whether labor was issuing an ultimatum or trying to dictate as to what decision should be rendered."
 In reply Mir Jewell declared there was no intention of issuing an ulti matum, but that the employees wanted the board to understand that limit had been reached and that unless fair increases in wages were granted the men the situation might become be- yond the control of the union execu- tives.
