u. S. Distributing
Earns 9.4oo in 1920

The United States Distributing Cor
pcration reported net income, after
expenses and interest. for the year
ended December 81, of $479,363, or
9.49 per cent on the outstanding
stock. Undivided profits amounted to
$248,245, which brought the total Of
that account to $2S4,971.
George F. Getz, president of the cor
poration, in a report to stockholders,
said: "The company at the close of
1920 owed nothing to bank and the
needs of all subsidiaries had been met
almost entirely by intercompany
financing. If to the net income there
is added the undivided profits earned
during 1920 Of those two subsidiaries,
the stock of which is owned entirely
by the United States Distributing Cor
poration, the total net earnings will be
seen to be $1,113,523, or % pc rcent
on the outstanding stock of the cor
poration.''

Wheat Prices
Tumble as Buying
Power Weakens
Misgivings Over Trade Out
look and Lack of Ex-
port Orders Cause Weak
ness in the Grain Marts

CHICAGO, March 17.-Signs Of ex-
haustion Of buying power led to a
stampede to unload on the part of hold
crs in the wheat market to-day and
caused prices to crumble. The close
was nervous at 1%c to 3Nc net lower,
with March $1.57 tc $1.57A and May
$1.48 to S1.48A. Corn lost 7sc to 1Mc
and oats BM1c to 1M11sc. Provi-
sions gained zoe to 30c.
It was evident from the outset that
new incentives were needed to bring
about any decided progress for bulls in
the wheat market. Gossip was current
that an embargo against importation of
agricultural products into the United
States had been decided on by Presi-
dent Harding, but no confirmation ap-
peared to be Forthcoming, and mod
crate upturn which had taken place in
values failed to last. Then renewal of
misgivings concerning the industrial
outlook attracted notice, and so, too,
did lack of any urgent export demand.
1t was at this stage that selling as
cribed to an elevator interest weak
cnod the morale of the bulls and left
the market bare Of buying orders ex-
cept from shorts who happened to be in
q position to collect profits.
Corn and oats were firmer early with
wheat, but quickly went lower when
wheat started down grade.
Some export business in lard had a
stimulating effect on the provision
market. Besides, fresh pork loins were
selling at the highest price of the year.
