May delivery by eastern interests ant

meet the specified contract grade.
Important sales of new crop wheat
varying from a million to two million
bushels were reported. Abandonment
of considerable southwestern acreage
is claimed and there are some observ,
ers who regard as bullish the delayed
seeding in the northwest.
Corn and oats markets were char
acterized by very light receipts at all
markets and a fairly good demand for
spot deliveries, for which premiums
are strong. Some export demand has
been in evidence with Germany and
Russia generally reported as the buy
ers. Argentine offerings are now in
competition for the export trade, anG
in view of the large corn stocks at
Minneapolis, Duluth, Chicago ant
Milwaukee, awaiting the opening OF
navigation, there are possibilities of a
slower demand in the event that oul
foreign sales are restricted. The Ar.
gentine crop, however, appears mere.
ly to be an average one.
Although the seeding period is com
paratively somewhat backward, We
cannot now regard the Northwestern
situation as alarming. It has beer
pointed out that the 1915 crop, with
seeding extending beyond May 1st
turned out to be the second largest
wheat crop IN record. While it must
be acknowledged that at present there
seem to be difficulties in securing
wheat for May and possibly July de
liveries, such a strained situation car
quickly change and is always dis
counted by the advanced price. I,
seems to us that in all probability thu
markets will be governed mostly by
new crop conditions which are not un'
favorable and which with clearer wea
Their forecasted should improve. Tt
counterfeit good crop conditions al
unusual demand must develop, ant
with the exception of a possible tenn
porary squeeze, a sensational demand
is not in prospect.

Those stars around Orion we see,
The clusters in the Peliade,
Or the diamond dust strewing the

Are eclipsed by the glow of a warm

When the prairie pillows blossom
with the exquisite beauty of the flow

Soon to wave with golden grain,

Which Arthur of old and his valiant

In seeking for, rose to such valorous

The perturbation of this series was
the idea of a young southern girl,
Miss Vera Roger, who has herself APP
peared on the screen and whose in
dominatable energies resulted in the
formation Of the advisory board.
The series reaches the screen through
w. w. Hodkinson, a pioneer in the
movement. The actual productions
are being handled by Triart Produc-
tions, and are being taken under the
direction of Herbert Blache and Le-
:jaren d Hitler, the latter a we'll
known figure in the art circles of
New York.
"No one who has the best interest
of art truly at heart can help but
feel a deep interest in this %innova-
lion in motion pictures" says Mr..
Tiffany, n of the greatest art con-
noisseurs Of America, after he had
witnessed a two-reel film, the exteri-
ors of which had been taken on his
own Long Island estate. 81 firmly
believe it will have an epoch-making
effect on the entire moving picture
industry, for it is the first serious eff
fort to link the picture in motion with
the greatest canvasses of all times.
Value is Incalculable
"From an educational standpoint,
the value of these pictures is meal
culable. They constitute a vizualiza-
ton of thes very wellsprings of in
SEPARATION and will bring great paint
ings nearer the homes of the masses
than any other force ever contem-
plated"
= The title part in "The Beggar
Maid' is played by Mary Astor, a
sixteen-year-old actress. Before this
picture was filmed, a careful seem
ario was prepared, constructed upon
the story of King Cophetua and the
legend on which Tennyson based his
poem. Burne-Jones is shown in a
reverie over a volume of verse, and
when his neighbor, a young English
Earl, bursts into praise of the match
less beauty of the daughter of one of
his tenants, the idea of the painting
unfolds in the painters imagination.

He seeks out the beautiful peasant
girl, and, having obtained her con
sent to pose as the beggar maid,
promptly enlists the services of the
Earl as King Cophetua.
Answers Insistent Demand
Subjects of this kind will do more
to answer the insistent demand for
better pictures on the part of both
press and public alike, than all the
promises producers can Make" de-
clares Mr.. H%odkinson. "Until this
series came along, the masses had to
look to indifferently done reproduc-
lions for their conception of the mas
terpieces of art. Here, on the screen,
they witness the actual moving i'm
pulses back of the painting. They
see the artist at work on it, and fol-
low every stroke of the brush in a
vivid perturbation of his subject.
Whether or not the public likes this
sort of picture received a decisive an
swcr in its New York showings,
which elected a degree of critical
appreciation seldom accorded even the
big features of the SCREEN"
From the standpoint of the art
gallery, Mr.. Francis c. Jones, one Of
the trustees of the Metropolitan Mu-
scum, declares that the great mas
terpiece series will awaken a ire
mendously increased interest in art.
by bringing the famous paint
ings of the world of art to life" said
he. "by giving them motion and by
outlining the stories back of them,
the motion picture can do much to en-
courage the study of art.
perhaps we shall find in this new
medium of expression an agency that
will bring about a greater apprecia-
ton of art than we in this country
have ever before known. 1t should
mean an increase in the attendance at
galleries and art schools alike, for it
will bring an enlightened understand
ing to many thousands whose con-
ception of our greatest paintings has
heretofore been limited to inadequate
reproductions"

The House appropriations committee

would take many months, probably

With the passage by the House of
the $240 bonus bill the House will
have done all that 1t possibly can to
establish new statutory salary sched-
uled without the government service
and to remove the evil of variations of
pay in different branches of the sery-
ice. It will have passed the Lehlbach
reclassification bill and will have
passed the $240 bonus bill as a safe
guard against the danger that the re-
classification bill does not get through
the Senate.
Chairman Madden said today that
the estimates which he recently re-
Quested from all of the federal es-
adjustments regarding the amount
that will be necessary to. pay the
bonus during the next fiscal year
have been received, and they show
that the bonus will cost approx
mately $40,000,000.
There have been whispered inti-
nations among members Of the Sem
ate and House that conferences have
been held looking to a reduction of
the bonus from $240 to $120. Chair
man Madden said today that he had

President Talks With Mrs.
Taylor on Problem Under
District Law.

In deciding who is to serve on the
newly created Rent Commission for
the District of Columbia, President
Harding is known to be facing what
he has termed as one of the most
difficult tasks now before him. For
that reason the President IS giving
undue thought and consideration to
the selection Of the five persons who
are to comprise this important body.
In making this known at the White
House today, it was explained that
the President is making a PAINS
taking inquiry into all of the various
candidates for the post, and that he
has no idea of unnecessarily hurry
ing the matter.

The President is known also to con-
slider the new rent act as of especial
significance not only to the District
of Columbia, for which it was created,
but to the country at large because
of it's economic features and its close
relation to the problem Of bringing
about price levels. The President is
known also to believe there is pos
sibility of similar bodies being estab-
lished throughout the country to meet
the economic conditions brought
about by the housing problem since
the war.
Mrs. clara Sears Taylor, a member
of the Rent Commission, called at the

for appointment on the new commits
sion, and at the same time explained

head Of the provisional government,
takes q most serious view of the Brit
ish shelling of Pettigoe, in Free State
territory, and has demanded from the
British authorities a full inquiry into
the circumstances.
It had been supposed that the Irish
troops cat Pettigoe were irregulars;
not under control Of the provisional
government, but an official commu
nique issued from Beggars Bush.
Headquarters of the Irish republican
army. says that there were no Irish
troops in that district except those Of
the regular republican army.
