BIG GRAIN STOCKS

LARGEST IN YEARS
Practically the Entire Visible

LARGEST IN YEARS

CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-THE grain
trade is carrying the largest line
Of hedges in years. There are H.
6ss. 900 bushels of grain in the Wis
ibIe supply, practically all OF which
is hedked. There are also 5o.Ooo.ooo
bushels more in the available sup
ply and in country elevators that
are hedged. This brings the totsi
close to 10, ,0O0. 900 bushels. To this
might he added nearly 10000, 900
bushels in addition including grain
thar is afioat on the Lakes headed
for Canadian ports. and in store at
Canadian ports, and on ocean pas
sage to Europe.
Foreign buyers are hedging their
grain and traders abroad are al
ways short of more or less grain in
the Chicago market. This gives an
idea of the volume Of hedges the
speculative trade is carrying and
the advantage of the speculative
market TO country shippers. termi-
nal elevator interests, country ele-
vator operators, exporters and for
eign importers. There is probably
close To lOO. O.000. 900 bushels OF wheat
being carried in the way OF hedges
in various positions, and fully as
much oats, as there are 60.0O0.000
bushels OF the latter in visible sup
ply, the largest known at this sea-
son. There was an increase in the
total visible OF all grains last week
Of T,tl3.oo0 bushels. an excess over
last year of 77,13l.Oo0 bushels,
Without a hedging market the posi-
ton of holders of such a vast sup
ply Of grain in various locations
would be decidedly uneasy, but with
hedging operations their risk is

JAPAN Is NOW FACING
AN INDUSTRIAL CRISIS
Labor Becomes Ruthless Under Industrial
Depression and Makes Demands.

direct connection with Industrial
plants, and they placed the manage
ment in the hands OF a DIR. Kuwada
and other utterly impractical the
orists. who devoted their entire at
tention to compilation Of extremely
unreliable statistics and writing Of
essays. As a consequence the la
borers will have none of the So
cicty. Some men of the employer
class believe that now is the time
to become friends with the laborers
and to give in to such demands as
those involving right to collective
bargaining and advisory shop com
mittees. insisting that by such con-
ccssions today far greater troubles
in future may be avoided, but these
are voices crying in the wilderness.
Labor Grows More Radical.
The situation is rapidly getting
out of hand for the constructive la
Dor leaders. such as Mr.. Suzuki. the
president of the Federation Of La
Dor. They admit that many of the
workmen are becoming radical and
the authorities are much concerned
at the rapid spread of dangerous
| thought" among the workers, who
while they are still fairly cOnserva-
tive in their actions. are feeling
more and more sympathy for Boil
shevism and similar ideas. 1t is
probable that their realization OF
their small number, as compared
with the vast farming population, Is
mainly responsible for the compar-
ative conservatism of their actions
At the same time, even the small
| farmers Who are in many cases suf
| fering from the rigid eXactions OF
| the land owners, are beginning to
| get together, and several associa-
| tionS similar to labor unions have
already been formed among them
| 1t is very plain that the present
| fire is not a very serious affair, and
| one which may easily be extin.
guished il proper measures are used
but II is also plan that unless the
| employers show some spirit Of SYM
pathy and helpfulness. the growth
of class feeling and of hatred OF
the capitalists will be both rapid
and dangerous, and may lead to al.
most any length. There is no doubt
that the workers of Japan suffer
from repression and are being ex,
plotted to a degree not much diff.
ferent from that of Czarist Russia
AS matter of fact, refugee Rus.
sion former officials have told m,

! sufficient funds at one time to cover
all public charities donated by the

Commissioner Kutz referred to the
coming law of the District and said
that it was too bad the federal gov
eminent had not taken over all of
the land of the District when it was
first laid out. claiming that had such
been done many of the pefplexing
questions that now confront the Cit
| liens of the District would have been
eliminated.
| The Commissioner advocated the es-
Enlistment of a park along Anacos-
| tia river, similar to Potomac Park.
J. Lynn Yeagle spoke of the know
Your Own City" movement, and the
association Endorsed it.
Warner Stutler presided. and at the
conclusion of Miss Boardman's adj
| dress Mrs. Harry Epps. vice presi-
dent of the organization, presented
her with flowers as a token of ap-
probation of her visit.

During the business session reso- 1
luton was adopted calling on the board
of education to supply more teachers
for the Benning school. it being point
ed out that more than fifty children
are crowded in the first and second
grades. 1t was also shown that 40
per cent of the children attending the
Benning School are non-residents OF
the section.
After Frank Carrigan had related
an instance in Benning of badly in
jured child being refused ambulance
service by the Casualty. Children's
and Emergency hospitals. in being
claimed by these institutions that the
distance was too far. a motion to re-
fer the matter to the committee on
public health was adopted. !
Mr. Stutler announced that Dr. How !
ard Fisher of the public health bureau
would address the association at Its
next meeting.
