WEEKLY GRAIN REVIEW

Chicago, April 29.-Skepticism about
continued lack of wheat supplies here

considerable effect this week toward
weighing down prices in the wheat

otherwise, gave the first jolt to traders
who had been expecting values to as

from Canada. duty paid, would be made
at a profit, tended further to weaken
confidence on the part of holders of
wheat. Then came gossip that private
settlements were being negotiated in
May contracts involving as much as
5.o00y0 COO bushels. At this j~uncture the
market dropped SAC a bushel within a
few hours.
Unusual activity In purchasing for
Europe developed after wheat prices
had tumbled. About 1,5o0, 900 bushels
were estimated to have been taken for
Europe one day and 5000, 900 bushels
the day following. Then, quotations

Chicago, April 2s.-The shake down IN
May wheat looked for Saturday wal
delayed until during the last hour 0i
trading, when prices broke nearly five
cents, when selling orders came into
e: PIT: a tense feeling existed sd,i IN tn tn:
looking for some sort of a break. The
market lacked support, but a few cash
houses bought a little at the bottom
md that accounted for q recovery OF
S139h to $1.30&. and July s1.2eh to
$1.2sK; corn was q to y down and
oats was. off u to ! cent. Provisions
were unchanged to is cents higher.
During the fore part of the day wheat
prices moved upward as a result Of
short covering induced by the upturn
IN Minneapolis May and reports that
vessel room had been chartered to load
100000 bushels Of wheat next week.
These reports. however, could not be
confirmed. Strength in Liverpool and
an absence Of liquidation brought about
q higher range in prices early. Outside
interest, however, was small and the
q great deal Of caution IN account Of
Monday being the first delivery day on
May contracts.
The market was easily influenced
and price changes rapid, especially In
the May. Houses with eastern connec-

WEEKLY FINANCIAL REVIEW

TN nEt1E"
New York, April 29.-The prolonged
advance of quoted values in the stock
and bond markest was checked this
week. Prices reacted to technical con-
ditions which bespoke an over extend
ed bull position.
Reversals were moderate in compar-
ison with the substantial gains Of the
past two months, but they were suffic-
lent in a number Of instances to dis
lodge weak holdings, especially In the
more speculative issues.
Primary factors in the setback were
the coal strike n the foreign situa-
ton although International c~urrencies
showed only occasional unsettlement
Domestic money rates remained low on
abundant offerings.
Confidence in the future Of the steel
and iron trade was demonstrated by
the maintenance Of regular dividends
on the common shares Of United States
and Bethlehem steels, although neither
was earned.
Car loadings fell again, due to smaller
coal tonnage. but March earnings OF the
leading transportation systems were
larger for the most part. Rumors Of
railroad merger in the middle west
gained fresh currency from the change
of control in Lake Erie & Western.
Backward season conditions account
ed for less favorable commercial re-
turns. Distributors of the more essen
tial lines OF merchandise were hopeful,
however, Of a general revival of bus
mess with the approach OF the mid
year.

FINANCIAL DIGEST
THE WEEK I'M BUSINESS
BY The Tribune,

the pound sterling has not shared in
the depression in the French and other
continental currencies. The Belgian
franc has come down with the rest,
but not to the extent that might have
ben anticipated considering the stake
that Belgium has in German repara-
tons. She counts upon this for three
billion francs this year, or nearly half
of what the budget calls for all
sources. A deficit Of over 1,100.0 600, 900
francs would remain even If every
mark OF the indemnity were paid in.
Under these circumstances a German
default would put Belgium back to the
condition she was in In other years,
when to meet the huge budget de-
ficiency she had to borrow at fancy
rates in the foreign markets.

COME TO CHURCH MARCH 10

Sunday March 19, has been designated by the
federation of churches as Come to Church Sunday.
Come to Church Sunday is much more happily
phrased invitation than Go to Church Sunday. 1t
has something of the ring of true hospitality, of
genuine, hearty invitation. The phrase BELTS the
church better than the other. With the current
and growing criticism of the church an institu-
ton, that body do no better than to say "come
in and see what we are" Once the invitation is
accepted it is up to the church to vndicate itself.
Come to Church Sunday offers opportunity to
enlist the lukewarm, and even the antagonistic
in the work of the church. On that day many
people go to church out of Difference to the day,
some go out of curiosity, and some go with the
definite idea of renewing their duties as church
members. The impression that each minister
makes on this audience will determine largely the
real, basic value of come to church Sunday. Such
value is not measured in mere attendance figures
nor is it based the number of people in attend
that has not been present for long periods Of
time. Rather is it measured by the number and
caliber of the people who have been given new
impression, a greater conception of the work and
function of the church.
The slogan is invitation to the pew and a
challenge to the pulpit. Let both the layman and
the pastor Come to Church Sunday March 49,
