AT THE SAVOY.

''The Mad Lover" a big special
Pathe play starring Elaine Hammer
stein, and supported by Robert War
wick, will have a week showing at
the Savoy Theatre commencing to-
day. A strong dramatic story. with
a swiftly moving plot, popular stars,
massive and beautiful settings and
much intense action dominate this
story by Leonce Perret. An
appealing love theme, jealousy and
ingratitude combine their evil forces
to build up startling situations.
Robert Warwick as the mad lover
gives a striking screen portrayal to
"a difficult part that adds much to
the enjoyment OF the entertainment.
Things are not always what they
seem, and when the husband saw
man he both disliked and mis-
trusted appearantely kissing his wife
he naturally jumped to conclusions.
Tho results Of his hasty judgment Is
sirihngly unfolded as the story Is
unfolded. The comedy element is
supplied by Sunshine Sammy who
became famous in Hal Roach COM
cdies. and now makes his first ap-
pearance in a special two reel COM
dy "The Pickaninny' which is full
OF new and laughable incidents that
happen in and around a country

LOWER PRICES AFFECT
APPARENT TRADE CUTS
Secretary Hoover Calls Attention te
Changes in Value in Making
Comparisons.

Although the foreign trade of the
nation during July showed heavy
reduction in value. the situation was
not so bad as the figures would in
dicate when the volume of exports
and imports is considered, Secretary
Hoover said.
I'm considering the comparative
figures on exports and imports" Mr..
Hoover said, the very great fall in
prices must be taken into account.
The monetary value of foreign trade
no longer indicates it's real compara-
ports of wheat and its products ac-
tually increased in July this year
over July last year."
Exports to Europe during July
amounted to s1S0,000,000 compared
with $341 100000 in the corresponding
month last year, while for the seven
months ending with July the total
was 100000 against $2,692.000.-
900 during the corresponding months
of 1920.
Imports from Europe during the
month aggregated $57,0O0.O0O as
against $119, 100000 during July. 1920,
while for the seven months period they
totaled S433 100000 as compared with
$7S5. 100000 during the corresponding
months of 1920.
Exports to South America during
July aggregated s16.000.0OO against

the first seven months of the year
the total was s2O1,0O0,0oO against

MASTER MERCHANT

Head of Marshall Field & Co.
for Lower Freights.
Against U. S. Valuation.

CHICAGO. August 25.-Replying to-
day to numerous inquiries from cham
bers of commerce and business men
throughout the country on the factors
necessary for a return Of prosperity.
John G. Shedd. president of Marshall
Field & Co.. threw responsibility onto
Congress.
MY judgment on our future pros
perity will be formed on congress
sional action on three great problems
confronting US. namely the tariff,
taxes and transportation" said Mr..
Shedd in his statement.
Returns from the agricultural sec
tions show an assured crop and il
the farmers are enabled to earn a fair
return through marketing their sur
plus products abroad. it will mean
that a great buying power. now stag
tariff bill is the important factor
toward this end. and 1t is vital that
Congress be made to understand that
a law that prohibits our buying
products of foreign manufacture will
make it impossible for Europe to pur-
materials. etc. Europe can only pay
in its products; it has not the gold.
Oppose American Valuation.
This tariff bill now before the
finance committee of the United States
Senate contains many provisions de-
structive to American business. and
will impose upon the consumer the
burden of higher prices. Chief among
it's Objectionable features is the So
called American valuation plan
Upon commodities upon which ad
valorem duties are assessed duties
are on be computed not upon the for
eign market value as in all previous
acts, but upon the wholesale selling
price at which similar domestic mer-
chandise is sold in the principal mar
kets Of the United States, or in cases
where no similar goods are made in
this country. upon the wholesale SELL
ing price Of the imported article or
other like imported articles. The
basis of foreign exchange is regarded
as the chief reason for this provision.
1.-The theory that exchange cheapens
the product Is not in accord with the
facts. as in our experience we have
paid in these countries where de-
preciated currency exists in many in

CHICAGO, August 27-Grains and

transactions this week. Compared

oats. In provisions. pork and ribs

Of 80 to 40.
There Were two main factors in the
wheat advance, the first coming with
an unexpected shrinkage in the visi-
BILE supply figures early in the week.
Passage Of the bill allowing the war
finance corporation to arrange loans
totaling up to billion dollars as
second and it's effect had not all worn
out when trading was resumed today.

selling last week when big liQuida-
switched definitely to the buying side

becare steadier. There was much
disappointment. however. over the
side buyers On the whole. the mar
ket remained an AFFAIR between
traders. This situation caused a
slump late yesterday after December

higher than Mondays low point.
Corn was strong on steady export
sales, big clearances and healthy

stances over 1000 per cent higher
costs than those OF pre-war times.
and on many invoices this rule has
been SO positive that it is almost
truism.
Placed In Impossible Position.
The merchant who must buy his
wares six months to year or more
in advance and be compelled to make
such purchases with no idea of what
some American expert or manufac-
turer thinks should have been paid
for the goods Is not only placed in an
prohibited from trading in foreign
goods. 1t is my judgment that this
particular feature of the Fordney
tariff bill will be SO destructive to
the revival of American business that
a forceful protest should be sent to
Washington.
"The government must economize
in it's expenditures so that the coun-
try can be relieved of many burdens
of taxation. Industry and the public
at large will be happily encouraged If
Congress will promptly and ably re-
wise our tax laws effective January 1.
1921. Capital must be encouraged
toward business enterprise rather
than be forced to seek investment in
non-taxable securities. Costs must
be reduced SO that commodities may
be sold at price within the reach
OF all OF the people.
Wants Lower Rates.
Transportation rates must be low
ered and yet the capital employed in
our great transportation systems must
be enabled to show a profitable return.
The rules governing the working hours
and pay of the railway workers must
he changed so that the tremendous
existing waste of man power be elm
mated. which in itself would warrant
much lower transportation rates and
yet permit the railroads to operate
on a profitable basis.
Our crops being assured. controll-
ing most of the worlds gold supply,
Europe owing us huge debt that can
only be paid, however. by our con-
servatively purchasing her goods. 1t
is my judgment that the exercise of
wisdom by Congress in its enactments
on the problems of the tariff. taxes
and transportation will stimulate
business and the early return of pros
perity.
"On the other hand. If poor judg-
ment is used in framing the laws on
these three great questions we will
no doubt stumble on through a period
Of uncertainty. business stagnation
and unrest"
