Chicago, Sept. 25.-Tribune: A radical
reimbursement in wheat prices to a lower
level is expected by the trade. Action of
the market Iast few days in refusing to
hold the bulges in the face OF heavy buy
ing against export business was taken as
indicating the wave of price cutting, now
widely advertised in many commodities,
is to be reflected in wheat. 1t is the eco
nomic situation and lack of confidence,
rather than any other factor, that is sway
ing sentiment, not only i'll grains, but in
everything else.
Export sales of wheat, estimated in the
last. three days at more than 15,O0000U
bushels are regarded by most people ex-
aggerated. If the total was half this, the
traders say prices should have advanced
materially, but the close last night was
the lowest in several weeks. 1t is under
stood the export buying was taken advan-
tage of by some of the strongest longs TO
get out of their holdings. Many Of the
former longs were over on the bear side
at the finish.
With Indications that liquidation was on
in wheat, the opinion among corn and oats
traders was that there was little on the
buying side of the coarse grains for the
time being. AT the same time they were
much more conservative in their views.
Deferred deliveries of corn at the last
were the lowest on the crop and the lowest
since June, 1917. when December sold at o.
cents 1t would not surprise many to see
a lower opening today. At the same time

speech to a large delegation OF COM
mercial travellers who came to his
front porch from all quarters of the
country today.
He sounded g. warning unless q
change is made soon, America will
have a mo" hour day and industrial
plants will be idle and cold with la
vain for the joy of a days productive
work"
Harding urged for America the
brand of idealisfn that is not too
proud to work. Undeniably there is a
feeling permeating the American mind
that great harm has been done by I'M
wise heads and prodigaI hands.
In seeking correction the party for
which I speak means to appeal to the
confidence and the sober convictions
of Ame erica. else we do not wish to be
committed to the enormous tasks be-
