F. Clarey Nielsen spoke before
the Young Peoples Society Sun
day evening in place of Rev. S.
d. Rodholm, who was scheduled
to speak. Mr.. Nielsen dwelt
principally on the temperance
question and public morals,
speaking highly of John b.
Couch. one of the pioneers in the
temperance movement, who died
in 1886. The speaker eulogized
Mr.. Couch for having the cour-
age to work for temperance when
it was far from being popular.
This is the time of the year
when many subscriptions to the
American in the vicinity of
Askov come due. Look up the
label on your copy and see if it
is due. If marked 1O-l-2l the
subscription expired Oct. 1, 1921.
II is needless to say that we will
appreciate your renewals with
out having to go to the trouble
and expense of sending out re-
minders in the way Of statements
and Furthermore we can make
good use Of the money.

#AIN AND PROVISIONS
!: AS QUOTED IN CHICAGO

CHICAGO. July 23.-Wheat under
went a material setback in price to-
day owing chiefly to large receipts
and to a prospect that the burden
would be still heavier on Monday.
The market closed weak, 2A to 3
ret lower. with September. 1.22k
to 1.222, and December. 125A
to 1.251s. Corn lost Y to v. and oats
titish was unchanged to 81 lower.
General selling forced the wheat
market down@grade from the begin.
ming and prevented any important
rarly. even after new low level for
the week had been reached. Atten-
ton focused almost entirely on knowl-
edge that the four principal winter
wheat markets had received more
than two thousand cars. and that
there was no sign of a let-up over
Sunday. On the contrary. talk of pos
sible railroad embargoes was again
a factor, because of the congestion
of grain on tracks here. In addi-
tion the visible supply statement on
Monday. was expected to be bearish
and favorable weather was reported
from the spring crop region. Word

American consumption today is esti-
mated at not over 40.000.000 pounds
per month Most of the demand is
being supplied by second hands. Not
only are stocks of refined copper now
reported to be larger than at the
beginning Of the year, but 1t Is un-
derstood that all Of the exports made
in the last six months have not gone
into consumption.
Tin has shown further weakness
on account of declines in London and
Straits, but with some enlargement
of trade between dealers.
Lead continues in fair demand.
with prices holding steady in absence
of foreign competition.
Zinc remains low, the condition ap-
preaching stagnation. Producers are
not free sellers, the market being
made by offerings from second hands.
Inquiries from the Orient have been
at basis considerably below the
market.
Anthony remains nominally un-
changed, with a very small movement
reported.

ties for English investment since the

war
"Regarding the American oil situa-
ton, I believe that there will be a
shortage Of petroleum here next year.
I haven't changed my opinion, ex-
pressed q year or two ago, that
America would be a big importer of oil,
say, in the next ten years and much of
it's oil would be bought from Great
Britain. I base this belief on the
fact that by that time America will
be such huge consumer of oil prod
ucts that its domestic supply will
prove inadequate. My assertion that
Great Britain would supply q large
part of this deficiency is based on the
feet that English companies are very
strongly intrenched tthtroughout the
world In the matter of potential oil
resources, which will be opened up as
demand expands"

front of its building on New York

The sign is of such size that>it is
easily readable from the Treasury
Department on one side and the new
Masonic Temple, at 18th street and
New York avenue, en- the other. While
New York avenue is quite business
center during the day, at night 1t
takes on gloomy aspect, and 1t Is
to brighten up the street that many
business concerns in the vicinity of
the Citizens bank have decided to

STEEL MARKET WEAK.
Price Cutting General and Quota
tions Irregular,

NEW YORK. July 2s-The steel
market has been very unsettled and
weak. Demand has shown a slight
improvement in some directions, but
competition was so keen that price
cutting has become very general, and
quotations are irregular. In view Of
conditions it is the consensus of opin-
ion that another readjustment >of
values is probable, as prevailing
official prices are not being main
tanned and are largely nominal. Pig
iron Is also weak, with a further
downward tendency. The demand is
very spotted. and while 1t shows a
little improvement here and there, on
the whole it is poor. Copper has
been weak and lower. Electrolytic is
now available at 1914 cents for spot
and prompt delivery and could be
bought from some of the smaller
dealers at 12A cents delivered for
prompt shipment, cash.
Large producers show no inclina-
tion to force sales. Neither domestic
nor foreign demand has been at
tracted by the decline. and the entire
