the rise, and. after the start, the list
eased about 10 points from the highest
levels of the initial call.

HOOVER TO ASK CUTS
IN RAIL RATES. WAGES

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1O-The National
Unemployment Conference, resuming its
sessions today after ten-day recess, viii
be asked by Secretary of Commerce
Hoover to recommend reductions in both
railroad rates and wages, as one of the
permanent measures for relieving IN
employment.
Hoover, who is guiding the conference,
has come TO the conclusion that the bust
ness depression can not be relieved per-
manently until railroad rates are brought
down from their high level.
Railroad executives assert rate reduc-
tons are impossible under present Oper-
ating costs and that wages must be cut.
Hoover is hopeful an agreement can be
reached through the conference to cut
rates and wages simultaneously.
CONFERENCE IN
CRITICAL STAGE.
The conference admittedly IS entering
its critical period" Representatives Of
capital are insisting that the march back
towards prosperity is being held up by
refusals Of various groups Of laborers
to accept wage cuts.
Organized labor, in conferences held
during the last week, asserted capital
has not shaken of the war profteering
out reducing wages, labor holds.
Hence interest at the conference is CEN
tered on whether recommendation for
wage cuts can be pushed through. Sam
uel Gompers already has opposed several
proposals along this line which have
been submitted 20 the conference.
Some organized labor leaders are ready
to bolt the conference if the questions
Of reduced wages, the open shop and
other controversial questions are pressed
before the conference.
WORKS FOR SETTLED 4, 3 <sieiEs
MINE CONDITIONS.
Meanwhile, Hoover is working to bring
about settled conditions in the coal
mining industry, despite the refusal of
John Lewis and other United Mine Work
ers leaders to agree to arbitrate the
question of wage reductions when the
national wage agreement under which
union miners in the central competitive
field are not work expires next March.
Thirty-one cities have notified the con-
ference of action taken TO cooperate with
it in Its emergency recommendations.
Hoover announced that many cities have
inaugurated public works programs to
prevent suffering this winter.

OF IN


Wheat-Saturday' crop report, a sharp
advance in sterling exchange and strength
in Winnipeg market in the face of heavy
receipts have given an undercurrent of
strength to the wheat market. 1t is
claimed that farmers, both here and in
Canada are slow sellers. Outside of this
there is no change in the underlying sit
uation. The export demand is just as
poor as at any time, except that there is
Pacific coast demand for the Orient.
English country markets are weak,
thrashing returns showing better than
expectations, in some instances uncover
ing yield of sixty to seventy bushels
per acre. The visible supply figures are
not completed. For your better under
standing of these figures we want to say
that st. Joseph stocks Of ], 127, 900 bushels
have been added as an increase Of the
total. AS a matter of fact this total in
st. Joseph is $4,000 bushels smaller than
a week ago. Milling demand FOR choice
wheat In all markets is good. with Sc
lections considerably higher There Is a
growing inclination. either in the way of
outright friendlineSs to the market or in
the way of expecting a temporary rally
from the present levels. 1t may be well
to modify ideas OF lower prices, but at
the same time there should be no pro-
nounced strength unless perchance the
buying by foreigners becomes decidedly
more pronounced than at present.
Corn and Oats-NOt only is there no
improvement In the shipping demand for
corn, but the investment demand for the
deferred deliveries has practically dis
appeared. Therefore, prices have been
sensitive to hedging sales The first
movement of new corn is about to start
and 1t Is expected to be Of poor quality
therefore. not in demand. Lack Of ele-
vator space will further restrict the de-
mand~ for current receipts. Oats have
encountered buying which appears to be
for leading cash interests. Outside Of
this the market offers nothing new.
PROFESSIONALISM advance in hog prices
induced a little short covering in prod
ucts, but beyond this the demand has
been very poor. Further liquidation in
October lard has appeared. There is a
fair demand for fresh meats, but no i'm
provement has been noted in the foreign
demand.
