JUMP IN WHEAT AND FLOUR
IMPORTS FROM CANADA
Facts reported to President by
Committee Appointed to Inves-
tigate Market Conditions.

The United States imported more Ca
madam wheat and -four during the first
fifteen days of October than in any
corresponding period in the past seven
years, the Federal Trade Commission
announced yesterday in a report to
President Wilson. The report was based
on an Investigation ordered by the Presi-
dent after he had been asked by Gov.
Allen Of Kansas to place an embargo on
wheat imports from Canada.
900 bushels Of Canadian wheat and 65,-
94S barrels of Canadian flour were
shipped into the United States during
the fifst fifteen days Of last month
These shipments were more than three
times as large as shipments In any Oc-
tober In the past seven years, according
70 the report.
Largest October importations in
this period amounted to only 1,754,0OO
bushels. the commission said. THAT
was In 1915. They are also at a rate
considerably greater than the importa-
Sions in the month Of January. 1918.
when the imports aggregated 7.33s,000
bushels This was the largest monthly
importation from Canada between the
years 1912 and 1919.
In respect to the wheat flour, i'm
ports from Canada during the first fif-
teen days Of October. 1920, were con-
siderably over half Of those during the
entire month of September, 1917. when
the quantity imported was greater than
in any amount during the seven years
prior to 1920"
Members of the commission stated
that the investigation was being
pressed and that all available data were
being assembled to give a correct rep
fesentation Of conditions bearing on the
wheat market. Although no reference
was made to the wheat price decline
tha unofficial statement was made that
the heavy fmportations from Canada
have had an important effect on mar.

HOSTING ENGINEERS
'RETURN TO BUILDING:

Pending the resumption of work on
a motor controlling drilling operations
for elevator construction on the new
Star building, four hosting engineers
who walked out" from their posi-
tions yesterday resumed operations
today. The walkout yesterday was
occasioned by dispute over the EN-
ployment of an elevator constructor
on the motor.
Early this afternoon the hosting en-
gines were at work and the elevator
constructor motor was idle. The cur
rent for the motor had been supplied
by the Fuller Construction Company.
The Fuller company today cut the
wires to the motor making its use
impossible. and. since there was no
one at work in the latter position, the
hosting engineers returned. The drill.
which had been boring q hole for q
munger elevator. hit a bowlder yeSter-
day and operations were suspended
until the bit of the drill could be re-
paired.
Elevator constructors claim juris-
diction for the motor connected with
drilling work. The hosting engineers
claim jurisdiction for the same posi-
ton. Both declare that unless q mem
Der of their respective union is placed
at the motor members of the union
will refuse to work.
Ohicials of the hosting engineers
refuse to make any statement Where
the power for the operation of the
drill motor will come from is still the
