Chicago, Sept. 25.-Material doWnturn5 in the value of wheat resulted today from apparent likelihood of a peaceful settlement with Turkey. The market closed unsettled, 1 3-4 to 3 1-3c net lower, with December I.04 to 1o4 Is 3-4c off to 1-8@1-4c gain, oats at If decline to a shade advance, and provt- sions varying from unchanged figures te rise of 32c.
 As rule, wheat traders started with distinctly bearish views about the prob able outcome of the Dardanelles' crisis, and held to that outlook throughout the day, although Considerable buying at times took place owing to reports indicat- ing it was unsafe to assume that reason foc anxiety as to further warlike devel- opments, had been banished. Hedging sales, from the northwest and slowness of export demand. together with weak ness of Winnipeg prices, counted as here, the movement of the Canadian crop remaining heavy. and December de- livery at Winnipeg having gone to 10c under Chicago, the widest difference so far since the Turkish situation became a market factor.
 Decrease of 6eoo,ooo bushels in the amount of wheat on ocean passage leaving en route about enough only for two weeks actual needs tended somewhat to rally the market during the late dealings The falling of in the aggre- gate of wheat afioat was partly offset by an increase of the United States visible supply total but the increase was less than had been looked for by many trad CTS.
 Corn and oats showed stubborn resist ance to selling pressure although aver aging lower with wheat. Some European buying both of corn and oats was noted. Provisions had an upward slant in response to higher quotations on hogs and because of better shipping call for lard and meats.

Harding Asked to Name
A War Prisoner Board
Civil Liberties Union Wants
Commission to Scan the
Facts in Each Case

F-op, The Tribune's Washington Bureott
WASHINGTON. April 2.-President
Harding was petitioned to-day to name
"a special commission to consider the
cases of political prisoners with view
20 their release. The appeal bore the
signers, representing the American
Civil Liberties Union. Among them
we're the following attorneys: Arthur
Garfield Hayes, Alfred Hayes, Osmond
, X. Frendel. Walter II. Pollak, Walter
Nelles. Albert De Silver, and l.. Hol

Other sgners included Basil NJ.
Manly, former joint chairman of the
War Labor Board; John Nevin Sayre,
editor of "The World Tomorrow;
Harry F. Ward. Professor in Union
Theological Seminary, and John
Haynes Holmes. of the Community
Church, New York.
"The Office OF the pardon attorney
Is too limited TO make careful examina-
ZION of each record" the letter said.
AS result, it is urged that a spe
cial commission be created to make
complete analysis in the cases Of the
remaining political prisoners, and that
when matters outside of the records
are considered the Attorney General
be directed to make such matters &C.
cesslble in sufficient detail to afford
The prisoner or his friends an oppor-
tunity to investigate and make an
swer.
1t is further urged that in passing
npon applications for clemency, require
nent of recommendations from the
prosecuting attorneys be abandoned
and only the facts in the records be
studied.
And finally, the President is asked
TO stop the practice of the Depart
ment of Justice of securing from the
prisoner any statements about his
economic or political views except such
as may bear q direct relation to the
